Résumé
Objective To launch systematic research on long-term asymptomatic hyperuricemia (HUA) from hemorheological viewpoint,so as to provide references for clinical treatment of asymptomatic HUA.Methods Twenty rats were randomly and evenly divided into normal control group and model group.The rats were intraperitoneally injected with 250 mg/(kg · d) oxonate for 8 weeks to induce the model of asymptomatic HUA.The blood samples were obtained to measure the serum uric acid,hemorheological parameters,oxidative and anti-oxidative indices.Results The aggregation index,haemolysis rate,serum xanthine oxidase (XOD),plasma fibrinogen and blood viscosity significantly increased,while the orientation index,electrophoresis rate,serum superoxide dismutase (SOD),activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) and prothrombin time (PT) significantly induced.Conclusions The asymptomatic HUA can lead to more serious oxidative stress,deteriorate the hemorheological parameters of red blood cells in rats,and induce higher blood viscosity and coagulation status.The research findings indicate that asymptomatic HUA should be correctly understood and timely intervened in clinical diagnosis.
Résumé
Hyperuricemia is a risk factor for various diseases, but knowledge on acute hyperuricemia is still not sufficient. The present study was aimed to investigate the effect of acute hyperuricemia on red blood cells from hemorheological point of view, and to provide the reference for clinical treatment. The rats were gavaged with 500 mg/kg hypoxanthine and intraperitoneally injected with 100 mg/kg oxonate to induce the model of acute hyperuricemia. The same volume of blood samples were drawn within time period of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 6 h, respectively, from the inner canthus of rats to measure the serum uric acid, hemorheological parameters and the malondialdehyde level. It was found that in each period of 1, 2 and 3 h, the rats had significantly higher levels of uric acid. The integrated deformation index and relax index were increased. The hemolysis rate was significantly reduced. The plasma malondialdehyde level was obviously decreased at the end of 2 h. The results suggested that short-term elevated uric acid could improve the hemorheological parameters and the lipid oxidative level in red blood cells.
