Effect of ketamine-midazolam on myocardial HSP 70 expression in septic shock in rat / 中华麻醉学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To evaluate the myocardial protection afforded by ketamine midazolam in its septic shock and its possible mechanism by studying the impact of ketamine midazolam on myocardial HSP 70 expression in LPS induced septic shock in rats Methods 112 healthy adults SD rats of both sexes, weighing 180 205g were randomly assigned to one of following groups(Ⅰ)control group received normal saline ip (group NS); (Ⅱ) endotoxin group received LPS 20mg?kg -1 ip(group E); (Ⅲ) endotoxin midazolam group received midazolam 0 5mg?kg -1 20 min before LPS (group EM); (Ⅳ) endotoxin ketamine group received ketmine 80mg?kg -1 20 min before LPS (group EK); endotoxin ketamine midazolam group received ketmine 80mg?kg 1 and midazolam 0 5mg?kg -1 20 min before LPS (group EKM) One hour later half of the initial dose of ketamine and/or midazolam was given to reinforce their effect Heart was harvested 2h after LPS or when the rats died of LPS induced septic shock(pupil did not respond to light) for determination of HSP 70 expression using monoclone antibody immunocytochemistry The survival time of every rat was recorded Results The expression HSP 70 was higher in group E than that in group NS and was lower than that in group EK and EKM The survival rate of group EK and EKM was higher than that of group E and EM (P0 05) Conclusions Ketamine can enhance myocardial HSP 70 expression in septic shock This may be one of the mechanisms of its myocardial protection Joint use of ketamine midazolam dose not affect the myocardial protective effect of ketamine
