Abstract:
Objective To study the role of P38 mitogen-activated protein kinase(P38 MAPK) activation in high level glucose-induced microvascular hyperpermeability.Methods Rats were induced to diabetis by intraperitoneal injection of streptozotocin(STZ).The rats were divided into 5 groups,including normal,diabetes,control,MKK6b(A) and MKK6b(E) groups.The permeability coefficient to albumin(Pa) was measured in venules of in vivo mesenterium using a fluorescence ratio technique;Morphological changes of microvascular endothelial cell were monitored by observing fluorescence of F-actin stained with rhodamine-phalloidin.Results The permeability of diabetic rats was obviously increased.The activation of P38 MAPK by MKK6b(E) could increase microvascular permeability in normal rats,and the inhibition of P38 MAPK by MKK6b(A) could inhibit hyperpermeability of diabetic rats.Conclusion The activation of P38 MAPK induced by hyperglycemia may play a role in diabetic microvascular hyperpermeability.
