Hydrogen sulfide regulates hepatic and renal injury induced by thioacetamide / 军事医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To observe the effects of hydrogen sulfide on hepatic and renal injury induced by thioacetamide (TAA).Methods Twenty-four male SD rats were equally and randomly divided into TAA induced model group ,control group,TAA +sodium hydrogen sulfide group , and TAA +propargylglycine group .TAA was given by intraperitoneal injection to the model group , sodium hydrogen sulfide and propargylglycine groups at the dose of 600 mg/kg on the first day, and at the dose of 300 mg/kg 24 hours later.Hydrogen sulfide sodium at the dose of 0.15 mmol/kg and propargylg-lycine at the dose of 30 mg/kg were injected abdominally 1 h before TAA injection.The dose of these two agents was halved in the next 24 h.All the rats were sacrificed and specimens were collected to test hydrogen sulfide , and hepatic and renal function.Urine after the first 24 hours was collected after the administration of TAA .Results The structure of the liver in TAA group was disordered , especially in sodium hydrogen sulfide group .Liver function of TAA group was severely damaged (ALT980.0 ±32.0 vs 38.3 ±10.6 U/L),and deteriorated with the application of sodium hydrogen sulfide (ALT1095.6 ± 684.2 U/L), but recovered (ALT66.3 ±8.32 U/L) with propargylglycine application.Compared with the normal group, the renal function in TAA group was significantly injured ,but the urea nitrogen and creatinine in sodium hydrosulfide group were reduced more remarkably than in TAA group (BUN8.4 ±1.9 vs 11.62 ±6.0 mmol/L,Cr32.6 ±8.2 vs 42.8 ±4.4 μmol/L, P<0.05).Nevertheless, creatinine was increased in propargylglycine group ( Cr 56.7 ±14.9 vs 30.8 ±4.4μmol/L, P<0.05).The urine content within 24 hours was more significantly decreased in TAA group than in the normal group (9.2 ±2.5 vs 20.5 ±6.7 ml, P<0.01), which was mildly recovered in sodium hydrogen sulfide group (11.7 ± 1.5 vs 9.2 ±2.5 , P<0.05) but further decreased (4.2 ±1.3 vs 9.2 ±2.5, P<0.01) in the propargylglycine group . Conclusion Hydrogen sulfide can alleviates renal injury while aggravating liver injury induced by thioacetamide .
