No headache,nausea and vomiting,urinary retention and other adverse reactions were observed in group ACB. There were four patients who received additional analgesic and one patient vomitted. Conclusions Significant analgesic effect of the ACB could be detected after minor arthroscopic knee surgery ,with less reduction in requirements for supplemental opioids.

Evolution and mechanism of acute lung injury following hemorrhagic shock in a rodent model at plateau / 临床麻醉学杂志

Objective To explore the pathogenesis of acute lung injury in rats suffering hemorrhagic shock at plateau.Methods Seventy-two male Wistar rats, weighing 280-320 g, were randomized into 6 groups (n=12): sham group (group Sham), hemorrhagic shock for 15 min (group HS15), hemorrhagic shock for 30 min group (group HS30), hemorrhagic shock for 45 min group (group HS45), hemorrhagic shock for 60 min group (group HS60) and 90 min group (group HS90).Hemorrhagic shock model of Wistar rats was reproduced at plateau.The rats were only anesthetized, no shock and were sacrificed after 90 min in group Sham.The other groups were different in bleeding time and then were respectively sacrificed at 15, 30, 45, 60 and 90 min after shock.The pathological changes in the lungs were observed with light microscope.Wet to dry weight ratio (W/D), lung permeability index (LPI), myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) in lung were measured.Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay was used to detect the TNF-α and IL-10 in lung tissue, the expression and distribution of claudin-3 and claudin-4 in lung tissue was verified by immunohistochemistry method.Results Compared with group Sham, shock causes acute lung injury at different degree, and was positively correlated with the duration of shock, during the period of 15 to 30 min, it merely rendered a slight change in lung W/D, LPI, MPO, MDA, TNF-α, T-SOD and IL-10.Subsequently, along with time prolonged, lung W/D, neutrophils in BALF, LPI, MPO, MDA, TNF-α were significantly elevated, while T-SOD and IL-10 were notably reduced (P<0.05).Immunohistochemical results showed that claudin-3 and claudin-4 expression in lung epithelial cells and endothelial cells expressed at low levels and dislocated (P<0.05).Conclusion After a short time compensatory lesions, the change of rats' hemodynamic stability suffering severe hemorrhagic shock showed a spiral downward.Along with the extension of the shock, hemorrhagic shock at plateau results into the disturbance of inflammatory response and oxidative stress, the loss of claudin-3 and claudin-4 in lung epithelial cells, which triggers the acute lung injury.

Effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid combined with hypertonic saline on the hemodynamics of hemorrhagic shock rats / 中国组织工程研究

BACKGROUND:Studies have shown that suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) has protective effects in some vital organs in animals after hemorrhagic shock, and 7.5% hypertonic saline (HS) exerts significant effects on stabilizing the hemodynamics of hemorrhagic shock animals. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the effect of SAHA combined with HS on the hemodynamics of hemorrhagic shock rats. METHODS: Fifty rats were randomly and equaly divided into five groups: sham, shock non-resuscitation, SAHA, 7.5% HS, and 7.5% HS + SAHA. Each group contained 10 rats. Except the sham group, rats in the remaining four groups were applied to establish hemorrhagic shock models. In the sham group, rats were given anesthesia catheter, not bleeding; in the shock non-resuscitation group, the bleeding was found, but rats were not resuscitated and were kiled after 60 minutes of observations; in the other three groups, rats were respectively resuscitated at 60 minutes after bleeding, through intravenous administration of SAHA within 5 minutes, 7.5% HS and SAHA + 7.5% HS within 20 minutes. Heart rate, mean arterial pressure and left ventricular systolic pressure were monitored through the femoral artery and the right common carotid artery catheter in each group. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:At 3 hours after resuscitation, the heart rate was the highest in the 7.5% HS + SAHA group, compared with the SAHA and 7.5% HS groups (P < 0.05). After resuscitation, the mean arterial pressure and left ventricular systolic pressure were increased, with long-lasting effect and less fluctuation (P < 0.05). Experimental results show that 7.5% HS combined with SAHA has a superiority than traditional HS and simple drugs for resuscitation after hemorrhagic shock.

Effects of aloe polysaccharides pre-emptive treatment on the expressions of NF-κB and ICAM-1 in hippocampal brain tissue in rats with severely hemorrhagic shock for the first time of entering high altitude / 中华急诊医学杂志

Objective To investigate the effect of aloe polysaccharides (AP) pre-emptive treatment on the expression of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB),ntercellulor adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) and cell apoptosis in hippocampal brain tissue in rats with severely hemorrhagic shock for the first time of entering high altitude.Methods Forty healthy male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly (random number) divided into 5 groups (n =8 each):sham group,shock group and AP group which was further divided into 3 subgroups as per different dosages of AP administered (AP1:0.75 mg/kg; AP2:1.50 mg/kg; AP3:3.00 mg/kg).Rats in sham group were treated with surgical procedure without exsanguination.Rats in shock group were exsanguinated until hemorrhagic shock emerged without resuscitation.Rats in AP subgroups were intravenously infused with given doses of AP in different AP subgroups at 30 min before hemorrhagic shock.MAP was dropped to (35 ±5) mmHg (1 mmHg =0.133 kPa) in 15 min by bleeding from femoral artery,the mean arterial pressure (MAP) was maintained at (35 ±5) mmHg for 60 min with bleeding or re-transfusing.At 3 h after resuscitation,rats were sacrificed immediately by bleeding,and the hippocampus of brain was harvested on the ice.The expressions of NF-κB and ICAM-1 in the hippocampus of rats were determined by immuno-histochemical method,and number of cell apoptosis in the hippocampus of rats was determined by TUNEL.The means were compared with analysis of variance and Student-NewmanKeuls test,and statistical significance was established at a P value of less than 0.05.Results Compared with sham group,the expressions of NF-κB (5.03 ±0.42),ICAM-1 (4.14 ±0.29) and number of cell apoptosis (44.3 ± 7.2) in hippocampal tissue were significantly increased in shock group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in these three variables between shock group and AP1 group.Compared with shock group,the expressions of NF-κB (3.12 ±0.34),ICAM-1 (2.93 ±0.21) and number of cell apoptosis (24.8 ± 3.6) in hippocampal tissue were significantly decreased in AP2 group (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences in these three variables between AP2 and AP3 groups.Conclusion AP pre-emptive treatment can significantly attenuate the expressions of NF-κB,ICAM-1 and number of cell apoptosis in hippocampal tissue in hemorrhagic shock rats.

15-deoxy-Δ¹²,¹⁴-prostaglandin J₂ ameliorates endotoxin-induced acute lung injury in rats / 中华医学杂志(英文版)

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>A proinflammatory milieu emerging in the lung due to neutrophil accumulation and activation is a key in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury (ALI). 15-deoxy-Δ(12, 14)-prostaglandin J2 (15d-PGJ2), one of the terminal products of the cyclooxygenase-2 pathway, is known to be the endogenous ligand of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPAR-γ) with multiple physiological properties. Growing evidence indicates that 15d-PGJ2 has anti-inflammatory, antiproliferative, cytoprotective and pro-resolving effects. We investigated whether 15d-PGJ2 has a protective effect against endotoxin-induced acute lung injury in rats.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Twenty-four male Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups (n = 6 per group): sham+vehicle group, sham+15d-PGJ2 group, LPS+vehicle group, and LPS+15d-PGJ2 group. The rats were given either lipopolysaccharide (LPS, 6 mg/kg intravenously) or saline, and pretreated with 15d-PGJ2 (0.3 mg/kg intravenously) or its vehicle (dimethyl sulphoxide) 30 minutes before LPS. Histological alterations, wet/dry weight (W/D) ratio and myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity as well as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1 (CINC-1) levels were determined in lung tissues four hours after LPS injection. Immunohistochemical analysis for intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression and Western blotting analysis for nuclear factor (NF)-κB p65 translocation and IκBα protein levels were also studied.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>15d-PGJ2 pretreatment significantly attenuated LPS-induced lung injury, and reduced the increased W/D ratio, MPO activity, TNF-α, CINC-1 levels, and ICAM-1 expression in the lung. 15d-PGJ2 also suppressed the nuclear NF-κB p65 translocation and increased cytosolic IκBα levels.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>15d-PGJ2 protects against endotoxin-induced acute lung injury, most likely through the reduction of proinflammatory protein levels during endotoxemia subsequent to the inhibition of NF-κB activation.</p>

Role of haeme oxygenase-1 in remote limb ischemic preconditioning-induced attenuation of lung ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbits / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the role of haeme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) in remote limb ischemic preconditioning (RLIP)-induced attenuation of lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury in rabbits.Methods Twenty-four Japanese White Rabbits,aged 4-5 months,weighing 2.0-2.5 kg,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =6 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (S group),I/R group,RLIP group and zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP,an inhibitor of HO-1) plus RLIP group (ZnPP + RLIP group).Lung I/R was produced by 60 min occlusion of the left lung hilum followed by 180 min of reperfusion in I/R,RLIP and ZnPP + RLIP groups.RLIP and ZnPP + RLIP groups received 3 cycles of 10 min ischemia followed by 10 min reperfusion in the bilateral hind limbs immediately before occlusion of the left lung hilum.In ZnPP + RLIP group,ZnPP 10 μmol/kg was injected intravenously 10 min prior to hind limb ischemia and the rest of the procedures were similar to those previously described in RLIP group.At the end of reperfusion,arterial blood samples were collected for blood gas analysis.The animals were then sacrificed and pulmonary specimens were obtained for microscopic examination of the pathological changes which were scored (lung injury score,LIS) and for determination of wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio),myleoperoxidase (MPO) activity,malondialdehyde (MDA) content and expression and activity of HO-1 in the lung tissues.Results Compared with group S,PaO2 was significantly decreased,and LIS,W/D ratio,MPO activity,MDA content,and HO-1 expression and activity were increased in I/R group (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with I/R group,PaO2 and HO-1 expression and activity were significantly increased,and LIS,W/D ratio,MPO activity and MDA content were decreased in RLIP group (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with RLIP group,PaO2 and HO-1 expression and activity were significantly decreased,and LIS,W/D ratio,MPO activity and MDA content were increased in ZnPP + RLIP group (P ＜ 0.01).Conclusion RLIP up-regulates HO-1 expression and enhances HO-1 activity,thus reducing lung I/R injury in rabbits.

Effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid on liver injury induced by lethal hemorrhagic shock in rats first entering high altitude / 中华麻醉学杂志

Objective To evaluate the effect of suberoylanilide hydroxamic acid (SAHA) on liver injury induced by lethal hemorrhagic shock in rats first entering high altitude.Methods Forty healthy male SpragueDawley rats,aged 2-3 months,weighing 240-280 g,transported from breeding grounds at an altitude of 1520 meters to the experimental station at an altitude of 3780 meters,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =10each):sham operation group (group S),lethal hemorrhagic shock group (group LHS),normal saline group (group NS),and SAHA group.Anesthesia was induced with inhalation of 3% isoflurane and maintained with inhalation of 0.5%-1.0% isoflurane.Lethal hemorrhagic shock was induced by withdrawing blood from the femoral artery in groups LHS,NS and SAHA.Normal saline 0.25 ml and SAHA 7.5 mg/kg (0.25 ml) were injected intravenously over 2 min after completion of blood-letting in groups NS and SAHA,respectively.The survival rates with 3 h were recorded.Blood samples from femoral veins were taken before blood-letting,immediately after completion of blood-letting and at 3 h after completion of blood-letting (immediately after death if the survival time was less than 3 h) for determination of serum aspartate aminotransferase (AST),alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) activities by the colorimetric method.Liver specimens were taken at 3 h after completion of blood-letting or immediately after death for examination of the pathological changes of the liver and for determination of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK),phosphorylated-JNK (p-JNK) and caspase-3 expression and acetylation of H3K9 in liver tissues by Western blot.Results Compared with group S,the activities of serum AST,ALT and LDH were significantly increased in the other three groups (P ＜ 0.01).Compared with LHS and NS groups,the activities of serum AST,ALT and LDH were significantly decreased,the survival rate within 3 h and acetylation of H3K9 were increased,caspase-3 expression was down-regulated,and p-JNK/JNK ratio was decreased in group SAHA (P ＜ 0.05 or 0.01).The pathological changes of the liver were severe in LHS and NS groups and attenuated in SAHA group.Conclusion Administration of SAHA in early shock can significantly protect the liver after lethal hemorrhage in rats first entering high altitude,and increased acetylation of H3K9 and inhibition of the JNK/caspase-3 apoptotic pathway in liver tissues are involved in the mechanism.

Research progress of histone deacetylase inhibitors in the theraphy of anti-sepsis shock in animal experiments / 国际外科学杂志

It has demonstrated histone deacetylase inhibitor to be protective in preclinical and early clinical studies for the therapy of cancer,central nervous system degenerative diseases and immune system diseases.Strikingly,Recent studies have shown that it has emerged as a potent prosurvival and anti-inflammatory drug,offering new lines of therapeutic intervention for sepsis shock,and can reverse the changes of genes expression at the molecular level,caused by sepsis shock and its follow-up of fluid resuscitation.What' s more,it has slight impact on hemodynamics,ultimately alleviates lesions to systemic inflammatory response syndrome and multiple organ failure syndrome and simultaneously lays a good foundation to win the golden time for treatment.On the other hand,with the development of second hit theory,it will also set up a bridge between hemorrhagic shock and septic shock,resulting in expansioning the breadth and depth of understanding of shock.In brief,histone deacetylase inhibitors are the extension and challenges of the traditional therapy of anti-sepsis shock.
