ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the protective effect of erythropoietin (EPO) on the acute renal injuries caused by abdomen open injury plus seawater immersion in rats.Methods:
Sixty healthy male Wistar rats (clean grade) were evenly randomized into four groups,namely,EPO pre-treatment group,observation group,low-dose EPO treatment group and high-dose EPO treatment group. Acute renal injury was induced by abdomen open injury plus artificial seawater immersion (22°C). The serum creatine, BUN, creatine kinase, creatine kinase isoenzyme, TNF-α, IL-6, complement C3a, C-reactive protein, renal homogenate superoxide dismutase (SOD) , and the renal pathological changes were observed and compared between different groups.Results:
Acute renal injury was observed in all groups 3 hours after abdomen open injury plus seawater immersion,with increased serum creatine and BUN,but the rats survived after treatment. The serum creatine,BUN,creatine kinase,and creatine kinase isoenzyme in EPO pre-treatment group were significantly lower than those of the other 3 groups; the levels of TNF-α,IL6, complement C3a ,and C-reactive protein were also obviously decreased; the renal homogenate SOD was obviously increased; and the score of renal proximal tubule necrosis was obviously decreased. However,no significant differences were found between the high- and low-dose EPO groups concerning all the parameters (P>0.05).Conclusion:
EPO pre-treatment has a protective effect on the acute renal injury induced by abdomen open injury plus seawater immersion in rats.
