Protective Effects of Polydatin on Acute Lung Injury Following Endotoxic Shock in Rats / 中国药房

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the protective effect of Polydatin on acute lung injury following endotoxic shock in rats.METHODS:Using a rat endotoxic shock model,animals were randomly divided into4groups∶sham operation group,en?dotoxic shock group,Polydatin treatment group and Polydatin pretreatment group.MAPs(mean artery pressures)were mea?sured at given time points.At the end of the experiment,the serum,the lung tissue,and the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF)were collected.The levels of lung coefficient,lung penetrating index(LPI),the protein concentration of BALF and the content of NOS in the lung tissue were measured.Furthermore,the histologic changes of the lung were observed under light micro?scope.RESULTS:In addition to prohibiting the dropping of MAP,Polydatin could mitigate the acute lung injury induced by endotoxin which increased the levels of lung coefficient,LPI,the protein concentration of BALF and the content of NOS in lung tissue.Enough morphological evidence could be found in pathological sections.Especially,the protective effects were more ob?vious in Polydatin pretreatment group.CONCLUSION:Polydatin has prophylactic and therapeutical effects on acute lung injury following endotoxic shock and the prophylactic effect is more marked than the therapeutic one.
