Effect of different doses of lidocaine on expression of HMGB1 in small intestine in septic rats / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the effect of different doses of lidocaine on expression of the high mobility group box 1 protein (HMGB1) in small intestine in septic rats.Methods Fifty adult male Wistar rats weighing 200-250 g were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n =10 each)sham operation group (group S),sepsis group( group Sep ) and different doses of lidocaine group (group L1～3 ).Group S were not applied cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).Sepsis intestinal damage model was performed in group Sep by CLP.Group L1～3 were given intraperitoneally lidocaine in a dose ofS,10 and 20 mg/kg at immediately,1 and 2 h after CLP,respectively.Isometric normal saline was given intraperitoneally in group S and group Sep.The small intestine tissues were taken at 24 and 48 h after CLP.The small intestine morphology was observed with optical microscope.The expression of the HMGB1 mRNA were examined by PCR and the activity of diamine oxidase (DAO) were determined by ELISA.Results Compared with group S,the expression of HMGB1 mRNA was increased and the activity of DAO decreased in group Sep and groups L1～3 at 24 and 48 h after CLP ( P ＜ 0.05 ).Compared with group Sep,the expression of HMGB1 mRNA was decreased and the activity of DAO increased in a dose-dependent manner in groups L1～3 ( P ＜0.05),The injury of pathology of small intestine was slighter in groups L1～3 than in group Sep.Conclusion Lidocaine can reduce samll intestine injury through inhibiting HMGB1 expression in septic rats by a dose-dependent manner.
