Abstract:
Objective To investigate the protective effect of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) on gastric mucosa of rats with hemorrhagic shock. Methods Eighteen healthy male Sprague Dawley (SD) rats were randomly assigned into 3 groups, 6 rats for each group: control group, hemorrhagic shock group and rhGH treated group. The animals in control group were subjected to anaesthesia and intubation, without hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation, and all the parameters were determined 4h after intubation. The animals in hemorrhagic shock group and the rhGH treated group were not only given anaesthesia, intubation for carotid artery and internal jugular vein, but also reproduced as hemorrhagic shock-resuscitation model by bleeding from carotid artery and blood transfusion via internal jugular vein. The animals in rhGH treated group were given rhGH (1.5U/kg) when resuscitation began. In the hemorrhagic shock group and rhGH treated group all the parameters were determined 2h after resuscitation. Gastric mucosal blood flow (GMBF) was determined with laser doppler flowmetry (LDF), and the extent of gastric mucosal injury was assessed with optical microscope and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Results GMBF of the rats in hemorrhagic shock group was significantly lower than that in control group (260.4?49.6bpu vs. 418.6?57.3bpu, P0.05). The gastric mucosa injuries in the rats of rhGH treated group were greatly improved. Conclusion The rhGH, through enhancing the GMBF, can ameliorate the gastric mucosal ischemic-reperfusion injury in rats with hemorrhagic shock.
