Salidroside in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury in rats and its induced autophagy reaction / 国际中医中药杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective To research the effect and autophagy in hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury based on relevant indicators of the specimens of rat liver which ischemia reperfusion model by salidroside pretreatment. Methods A total of 90 male SD rats were randomly divided into the sham group, the model group, the low, medium and high dose group, 18 rats in each group. The low, medium and high dose group rats were treated with 7.5, 15, 30 mg/kg salidroside solution by gavage, and the sham group and model group and model group were filled with saline in the same volume,one time per day. After 7 days, all the rats were set up with the model of IR except the rats in sham groups. The AST and ALT of serum, contrast between groups liver tissue by Optical microscope with HE dyeing at 4, 8, 16 h after reperfusion. Western Blot was used to detect the expression of protein of LC3 and Beclin-1. The number and morphology of autophagy in each group of liver cells were observed by electron microscopy. Results After reperfusion 4, 8, 16 h, the level of ALT (662.36 ± 5.82 U/L vs. 983.67 ± 8.96 U/L, 436.49 ± 12.93 U/L vs. 1536 ± 10.77 U/L, 168.61 ± 8.34 U/L vs. 280.42 ± 17.37 U/L) of the high dose group weresignificantly lower than the model group, and the AST (513.29 ± 11.74 U/L vs. 656.38 ± 7.67 U/L, 276.29 ± 9.21 U/L vs. 930.19 ± 15.62 U/L, 97.83 ± 4.29 U/L vs. 211.23 ± 7.87 U/L) of the high dose group were significantly lower than the model group. After reperfusion 8, 16 h, the expression of LC3-Ⅱ (1.21 ± 0.16 vs. 1.91 ± 0.12, 2.00 ± 0.14 vs. 1.09 ± 0.11) in the high dose group were significantly lower than the model group, and the results were same to Beclin1 (3.53 ± 0.19 vs. 7.15 ± 0.14, 2.65 ± 0.27 vs. 7.60 ± 0.21) (P<0.05). After reperfusion 8 h, the number of autophagosome (3.24 ± 0.62 vs.7.84 ± 0.45) in the high dose group were significantly lower than the model group (P<0.05). Conclusions The hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury was serious, and inhibiting autophagy was one of possible mechanisms to protect liver cells by salidroside.
