RÉSUMÉ

OBJECTIVE To investigate the improvement effects of limonin on intestinal injury and intestinal flora disturbance in rats with ulcerative colitis (UC) and its mechanism. METHODS UC rat models were established, and 70 rats with successful modeling were randomly divided into model group, limonin low-, medium-, and high-dose groups (12.5, 25, 50 mg/kg), and sulfasalazine group (positive control group,500 mg/kg), with 14 rats in each group. Another 14 rats were selected as the control group. After modeling, each group was given the corresponding drug or equal amount of normal saline, once a day, for 2 weeks. Twenty-four hours after the last administration, the general condition of rats was observed and the body weight was measured, and colon tissue was collected for colonic mucosal damage index (CMDI) scoring; the levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β), IL-6 and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) in colon tissue were detected; the pathological changes of colon tissue were observed; the protein expressions of Claudin-1, Occludin, ZO-1, high mobility group protein B1 (HMGB1) and receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) in colon tissue were detected; fecal 16S rRNA sequencing was used to detect the relative abundance of zhangxiaxia5287@163.com intestinal microbiota in rats. RESULTS Compared with the control group, the rats in the model group were in poor mental state, with darker fur, irritable mood, disordered arrangement of colon glands, inflammatory cell infiltration, cell necrosis and edema; CMDI score, the levels of IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α, protein expressions of HMGB1 and RAGE in colon tissue, the relative abundance of Proteobacteria and Bacteroidetes were significantly increased (P<0.05); body weight, the protein expressions of Claudin-1, Occludin and ZO-1 in colon tissue, the relative abundance of Firmicutes in the intestine were significantly decreased (P<0.05).

RÉSUMÉ

The intestinal dysbacteriosis is closely associated with the occurrence and progress of radiation-induced intestinal injury. However, the specific mechanism remains unclear. Symbiotic bacteria in the human body play a significant role in maintaining the homeostasis of the intestinal microenvironment while participating in various physiological and pathological processes such as metabolism, immunoregulation, inflammation, and tumorigenesis. Ionizing radiation can destroy the intestinal epithelial barrier, creating an oxidative stress microenvironment. Consequently, the composition and structure of microbiota change, leading to dysbacteriosis through downstream inflammatory factors. Dysbacteriosis can further exacerbate radiation-induced intestinal injury by weakening the resistance of the intestinal epithelial barrier, activating inflammatory signaling pathways, and upregulating radiation-induced apoptosis response. The probiotic supplementation and fecal bacteria transplantation can reduce radiation-induced intestinal injury by regulating the balance of intestinal microbiota. This study reviews the advances in research on the pathogenesis and clinical protection of radiation enteritis based on gut microbiota, in order to provide a theoretical basis and reference for the prevention and treatment of radiation enteritis.

RÉSUMÉ

Radiation protection drugs are often accompanied by toxicity, even amifostine, which has been the dominant radio-protecting drug for nearly 30 years. Furthermore, there is no therapeutic drug for radiation-induced intestinal injury (RIII). This paper intends to find a safe and effective radio-protecting ingredient from natural sources. The radio-protecting effect of Ecliptae Herba (EHE) was discovered preliminarily by antioxidant experiments and the mouse survival rate after 137Cs irradiation. EHE components and blood substances in vivo were identified through UPLC‒Q-TOF. The correlation network of "natural components in EHE-constituents migrating to blood-targets-pathways" was established to predict the active components and pathways. The binding force between potential active components and targets was studied by molecular docking, and the mechanism was further analyzed by Western blotting, cellular thermal shift assay (CETSA), and ChIP. Additionally, the expression levels of Lgr5, Axin2, Ki67, lysozyme, caspase-3, caspase-8,8-OHdG, and p53 in the small intestine of mice were detected. It was found for the first time that EHE is active in radiation protection and that luteolin is the material basis of this protection. Luteolin is a promising candidate for RⅢ. Luteolin can inhibit the p53 signaling pathway and regulate the BAX/BCL2 ratio in the process of apoptosis. Luteolin could also regulate the expression of multitarget proteins related to the same cell cycle.

RÉSUMÉ

ObjectiveTo explore the mechanism of Dahuang Mudantang in alleviating the intestinal injury in the rat model of acute pancreatitis via the high-mobility group box 1 (HMGB1)/receptor for advanced glycation endproduct (RAGE)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) signaling pathway. MethodOne hundred and twenty SPF-grade Wistar rats received retrograde injection of 5% sodium taurocholate into the biliopancreatic duct for the modeling of intestinal injury in acute pancreatitis. The rats were randomized into blank, model, low-, medium-, and high-dose (3.5, 7, 14 g·kg-1, administrated by gavage) Dahuang Mudantang, and octreotide (1×10-5 g·kg-1, subcutaneous injection) groups (n=20). The rats in blank and model groups received equal volume of distilled water by gavage. Drugs were administered 1 h before and every 12 h after modeling, and samples were collected 24 h after modeling. The general status of the rats was observed. The biochemical methods were employed to measure the levels of amylase (AMS) and C-reactive protein (CRP) in the serum. The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was employed to measure the levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-1β, and IL-6 in the colon tissue. The morphological changes of pancreatic and colon tissues were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. Real-time fluorescence quantitative polymerase chain reaction (Real-time PCR) and Western blot were employed to measure the expression levels of HMGB1, RAGE, inhibitor of NF-κB kinase (IKK), and NF-κB suppressor protein α(IκBα)in the colon tissue. ResultThe rats in the model group showed poor general survival, writhing response, reduced frequency of defecation, and dry stool. The symptoms of rats in the model group were mitigated in each treatment group, and the high-dose Dahuang Mudantang showed the most significant effect. Compared with the normal group, the model group had elevated AMS and CRP levels (P<0.05), which were lowered by Dahuang Mudantang (P<0.05), especially that at the high dose (P<0.05). Compared with the normal group, the modeling elevated that levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 (P<0.05). Such elevations were lowered by Dahuang Mudantang (P<0.05), and the high-dose group and the octreotide group showed better performance (P<0.05). The modeling caused necrotic, congested, and destructed pancreatic and colonic tissues, which were ameliorated by the drugs, especially high-dose Dahuang Mudantang. Compared with the normal group, the modeling up-regulated the mRNA levels of HMGB1, RAGE, IKK, IκBα, and NF-κB (P<0.05). Compared with the model group, Dahuang Mudantang and octreotide down-regulated the mRNA levels of HMGB1, RAGE, IKK, IκBα, and NF-κB (P<0.05), and the high-dose Dahuang Mudantang demonstrated the best performance (P<0.05). Western blot results showed a trend consistent with the results of Real-time PCR. ConclusionDahuang Mudantang can improved the general status, reduce inflammation, and alleviate histopathological changes in the pancreatic and colon tissues in the rat model of acute pancreatitis by inhibiting the HMGB1/RAGE/NF-κB signaling pathway.

RÉSUMÉ

Genkwa Fols, Kansui Radix, and Euphorbiae Pekinensis Radix in Shizao Decoction(SZD) are toxic to intestinal tract. Jujubae Fructus in this prescription can alleviate the toxicity, but the mechanism is still unclear. Therefore, this study aims to explore the mechanism. To be specific, 40 normal Sprague-Dawley(SD) rats were classified into the normal group, high-dose and low-dose SZD groups, and high-dose and low-dose SZD without Jujubae Fructus(SZD-JF) groups. The SZD groups were given(ig) SZD, while SZD-JF groups received the decoction without Jujubae Fructus. The variation of body weight and spleen index were recorded. The patho-logical changes of intestinal tissue were observed based on hematoxylin and eosin(HE) staining. The content of malondialdehyde(MDA) and glutathione(GSH) and activity of superoxide dismutase(SOD) in intestinal tissue were measured to evaluate the intestinal injury. Fresh feces of rats were collected to detect intestinal flora structure by 16S ribosomal RNA gene(16S rDNA) sequencing technology. The content of fecal short chain fatty acids and fecal metabolites was determined by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer(GC-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer ultra-fast liquid chromatography-quadrupole-time-of-flight mass spectrometer(UFLC-Q-TOF-MS), separately. Spearman's correlation analysis was employed to analyze the differential bacteria genera and differential metabolites. RESULTS:: showed that high-dose and low-dose SZD-JF groups had high content of MDA in intestinal tissue, low GSH content and SOD activity, short intestinal villi(P<0.05), low diversity and abundance of intestinal flora, variation in the intestinal flora structure, and low content of short chain fatty acids(P<0.05) compared with the normal group. Compared with high-dose and low-dose SZD-JF groups, high-dose and low-dose SZD groups displayed low content of MDA in intestinal tissue, high GSH content and SOD activity, recovery of the length of intestinal villi, increased abundance and diversity of intestinal flora, alleviation of dysbacteria, and recovery of the content of short chain fatty acids(P<0.05). According to the variation of intestinal flora and fecal metabolites after the addition of Jujubae Fructus, 6 differential bacterial genera(Lactobacillus, Butyricimonas, Clostridia_UCG-014, Prevotella, Escherichia-Shigella, Alistipes),4 differential short chain fatty acids(such as acetic acid, propionic acid, butyric acid, valeric acid) and 18 differential metabolites(such as urolithin A, lithocholic acid, and creatinine) were screened out. Beneficial bacteria such as Lactobacillus were in positive correlation with butyric acid and urolithin A(P<0.05). The pathogenic bacteria such as Escherichia-Shigella were in negative correlation with propionic acid and urolithin A(P<0.05). In summary, SZD-JF caused obvious intestinal injury to normal rats, which could lead to intestinal flora disorder. The addition of Jujubae Fructus can alleviate the disorder and relieve the injury by regulating intestinal flora and the metabolites. This study discusses the effect of Jujubae Fructus in relieving the intestinal injury caused by SZD and the mechanism from the perspective of intestinal flora-host metabolism, which is expected to serve as a reference for clinical application of this prescription.

RÉSUMÉ

Radiation-induced intestinal injury(RIII), a common complication of radiotherapy for pelvic malignancies, affects the quality of life and the radiotherapy efficacy for cancer. Currently, the main clinical approaches for the prevention and treatment of RIII include drug therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, and surgical treatment. Among these methods, drug therapy is cost-effective. Traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) containing a variety of active components demonstrates mild side effects and good efficacy in preventing and treating RIII. Studies have proven that TCM active components, such as flavonoids, terpenoids, phenylpropanoids, and alkaloids, can protect the intestine against RIII by inhibiting oxidative stress, regulating the expression of inflammatory cytokines, modulating the mitochondrial apoptosis pathway, adjusting intestinal flora, and suppressing cell apoptosis. These mechanisms can help alleviate the symptoms of RIII. The paper aims to provide a theoretical reference for the discovery of new drugs for the prevention and treatment of RIII by reviewing the literature on TCM active components in the last 10 years.

RÉSUMÉ

Objective:To elucidate the change of whole genome expression profile for the effect of melatonin on radiation-induced intestinal injury in mice.Methods:C57BL/6J male mice were administrated with melatonin at 10 mg/kg body weight by intraperitoneal injection once a day for five consecutive days before abdominal irradiation with 14 Gy of γ-rays. Small intestines were harvested 3 d after radiation. GO annotation and KEGG pathway of the differential genes involved in small intestine were explored by DNA microarray analysis.Results:Compared with the control group, 584 differential genes were up-regulated and 538 differential genes were down-regulated for administration group pre-irradiation. The overlapping differential genes were selected from the irradiated mice and the administrated mice pre-irradiation. There were 324 up-regulated genes and 246 down-regulated genes unique to the administrated mice pre-irradiation. GO annotation analysis of the differential genes indicated that the top 15 significantly enriched biological processes for the administrated mice pre-irradiation mainly included autophagosome assembly (GO: 0000045), autophagosome organization (GO: 1905037) and regulation of acute inflammatory response (GO: 0002673). The genes ATG12, ATG16L2 and AMBRA1 were involved in autophagosome assembly and autophagosome organization. The genes C3, CPN1, CD55, CFP, CNR1, C1QA, C2 and CREB3L3 were involved in the regulation of acute inflammation response. KEGG pathway analysis of the differential genes involved indicated that the top 15 significantly enriched pathways for the administrated mice pre-irradiation mainly included O-glycan biosynthesis (hsa00512), glycosphingolipid biosynthesis (hsa00603), ECM-receptor interaction (hsa04512) and biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids (hsa01040). qRT-PCR verification showed that the expressions of ATG12 and ATG16L2 genes involved in autophagy for the administrated mice pre-irradiation increased significantly compared with the irradiated mice ( t=2.40, 4.35, P<0.05). Conclusions:The differential genes related with the biological process of autophagy, acute inflammatory response and the pathway of unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis might be involved in the effect of melatonin on radiation-induced intestinal injury.

RÉSUMÉ

Objective:To investigate the effects and mechanisms of copper transporter 1 (CTR1) in radiation induced intestinal injury in vitro. Methods:Human small intestinal epithelial cells (HIEC) were irradiated with 2, 4, 6, 8 Gy of X-rays and rat intestinal epithelial cells (IEC-6) were irradiated with 5, 10, 15, 20 Gy of X-rays. At 2, 4, 8, 24, and 48 h after irradiation, the expression of CTR1 was detected by Western blot assay. In some experiments, HIEC and IEC-6 cells were transfected with CTR1 shRNA and then exposed to X-rays. Copper levels were detected by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS). The radiosensitivity of cells was verified by colonogenic assay, the cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) level and DNA damage were detected to further explore the related mechanism. In addition, Western blot was applied to detect the expressions of antioxidants and cuproptosis associated proteins in enterocytes after silencing CTR1 or irradiation.Results:The expression of CTR1 was increased by X-ray irradiation in a dose-dependent manner ( t=3.53, 3.45, 6.37, 11.11, 11.13, P<0.05). CTR1 expression was successfully diminished by CTR1 shRNA adenovirus vectors. According to the survival curves, the enhancement ratios of the radiosensitivity of HIEC and IEC-6 cells with CTR1 knocking-down were 1.146 and 1.201, respectively. Radiation-induced copper accumulation was alleviated after CTR1 silencing in IEC-6 cells ( t=3.10, P<0.05). At 0.5 h after irradiation, the ROS production in the CTR1 knockdown group was significantly lower than that in the control group ( t=5.23, 2.96, P<0.05). At 1 h after irradiation, the protein expression of γ-H2AX in the CTR1 knockdown group was obviously lower than that in the control group ( t=7.50, 4.29, P<0.05). The expressions of Nrf2 and HO-1 were increased after irradiation, which could be further increased after CTR1 silencing. In addition, cuproptosis associated protein DLAT, LIAS and FDX1 were reduced post-irradiation, which were recovered after CTR1 silencing. Conclusions:The radioresistance of HIEC and IEC-6 cells was enhanced after CTR1 silencing, possibly through the intracellular ROS and cuproptosis pathway.

RÉSUMÉ

Objective:To investigate the changes of CPT1A and CPT1B protein expression in rat intestinal epithelial cells (IEC-6) after 60Co γ-ray irradiation, and the mechanism of the influence of carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1 (CPT1) on the proliferation of irradiated IEC-6 cells. Methods:IEC-6 cells were cultured in serum-normal medium or in serum-starved medium overnight, and pretreated with 20 μmol/L palmitic acid (PA) before irradiation with 0, 5, 10, and 15 Gy. At 24 h after irradiation, the cellular protein was collected for the measurement of CPT1A and CPT1B proteins by Western blot. The influences of ETO, an inhibitor of CPT1, on the survival and proliferation of irradiated IEC-6 cells were analyzed by colony formation assay and CCK-8 assay. The protein expressions and phosphorylation levels of the extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK1/2) and c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in 5 Gy irradiated IEC-6 cells pre-treated with ETO were analyzed by Western blot at 48 h after radiation.Results:When IEC-6 cells were cultured in serum-normal medium together with PA, the protein level of CPT1A was significantly increased after 15 Gy irradiation ( t=-2.82, P<0.05). When IEC-6 cells were cultured in serum-starved medium, the protein level of CPT1A was significantly increased at 5, 10, and 15 Gy ( t=-3.28, -8.72, -8.67, P<0.05). When IEC-6 cells were cultured in serum-starved medium together with PA, the protein levels of CPT1A were significantly increased at 5, 10 and 15 Gy ( t=-10.69, -7.02, -8.23, P<0.05), the protein levels of CPT1B were significantly increased at 10 and 15 Gy ( t=-3.73, -5.05, P<0.05). After irradiation, the survival and proliferation of IEC-6 cells in ETO group were significantly lower than those in control group ( t=5.46, 13.22, P<0.05), and the protein level of ERK1/2 and p-JNK in ETO group were significantly lower than those in control group ( t=4.01, 3.29, 10.68, 14.44, P<0.05). Conclusions:CPT1 promoted radiation-induced IEC-6 injury cells survival and proliferation by enhancing the expression level of ERK1/2 protein and the activity of JNK.

Objective:To study the protective effect of recombinant human ADAMTS13 (rhADAMTS13) on radiation-induced intestinal injury.Methods:Thirty C57BL/6 J mice were randomly divided into healthy control group, 12 Gy abdominal irradiation group (simple irradiation group) and rhADAMTS13 combined with 12 Gy irradiation group (combined group) with 6, 12 and 12 mice per group. The combined group was given 2.5 μg/kg rhADAMTS13 via tail vein injection 3 d before irradiation. 12 Gy X-ray abdominal irradiation was given to the simple irradiation group.The mice were executed at 1 and 3 d after irradiation, and plasma vWF, ADAMTS13 and CRP concentrations were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Intestinal histopathological changes were observed by hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining.Intestinal Ki67, TNF- α and MPO expression levels were detected by immunohistochemical staining.Plasma malondialdehyde (MDA), superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) were measured by biochemical kits.Results:Compared with the healthy control group, the plasma vWF level was increased( t=6.20、12.29, P<0.05) and ADAMTS13 level was decreased( t=9.82、22.83, P<0.05)in mice at 1(1.38±0.11)and 3 (1.70±0.10)after irradiation.Compared with the simple irradiation group, the plasma vWF level was reduced ( t=2.93, 3.96, P<0.05) and ADAMTS13 level was increased ( t=5.09, 9.82, P<0.05) in mice at 1 (1.23±0.12) and 3 d (1.48±0.09) after irradiation in the combined group. Immunohistochemical staining showed that the number of Ki67 + cells in the crypt of the combined group increased significantly ( t=9.82, P<0.05) and the degree of TNF-α and MPO infiltration decreased significantly ( t=15.44, 14.33, P<0.05) compared with the simple irradiation group.In addition, rhADAMTS13 intervention significantly reduced plasma CRP ( t=5.02, 2.96, P<0.05) and MDA ( t=2.47, 2.55, P<0.05), but increased SOD activity ( t=2.64, 5.64, P<0.05) and T-AOC ( t=3.05, 5.07, P<0.05). Conclusions:rhADAMTS13 attenuates radiation-induced intestinal injury in mice by reducing the levels of inflammation and oxidative stress, providing a new strategy for the protection of radiation-induced intestinal injury.

Objective:To study the protective effect of Mongolian medicine Bateri-7 on radiation-induced intestinal injury in mice.Methods:C57BL/6J male mice were randomly divided into control group, irradiation group and irradiation plus drug administration group, with 10 or 15 mice in each group. For irradiation group, the mice were given a single dose of 12 Gy 60Co γ-rays with total body irradiation. For drug treatment, the mice were gavaged with Bateri-7 (530 mg/kg) 7 d before irradiation until 3 d after IR. At 6 h and 24 h after irradiation, the Tunel positive cells in intestine were detected immunohistochemically. At 3.5 d after irradiation, the structure of intestinal villi was observed by HE staining, and the BrdU and Ki67 positive cells were detected immunohistochemically. The expression levels of IL-6, TNF-α and Cxcl-5 were detected by qPCR. The FITC-dextran in peripheral blood was also determined. Results:The survival of irradiated mice was significantly increased by Bateri-7 ( χ2= 5.84, P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference in weight between two groups ( P > 0.05). The villi length of small intestine in the irradiation plus drug group was significantly longer than that in the irradiation group ( t = 20.24, P < 0.05), and there was no significant difference in the depth of intestinal crypt between two groups ( P > 0.05). At 6 and 24 h after irradiation, the number of Tunel positive cells in intestinal crypts in the irradiation plus drug group was significantly reduced in comparison with the irradiation group ( t = 3.52, 2.90, P < 0.05). At 3.5 d after irradiation, the level of FITC-dextran in serum and the expressions of IL-6, TNF-α and Cxcl-5 in small intestine of mice in the irradiation plus drug group were significantly lower than those in the irradiation group, respectively( t = 6.92, 7.01, 7.18, 13.16, P < 0.05). The number of BrdU and Ki67 positive cells in the crypt of mice in the irradiation plus drug group was higher than that of the irradiation group ( t = 3.91, 2.57, P < 0.05). Conclusions:Mongolian medicine Bateri-7 can effectively alleviate irradiation-induced intestinal injury of mice, which may have a good preventive and therapeutic effect on radiation enteritis.

RÉSUMÉ

Gut microbiota not only affects the activity of tryptophan metabolism rate limiting enzymes in intestinal cells, but also cooperatively produces a variety of catalytic enzymes, which directly affects the type and quantity of tryptophan metabolites in the intestine. Multiple tryptophan-associated indole compounds originating from the gut microbiome are significantly decreased in the peripheral blood of mice, and negatively correlated with radiation dose ranging from 2 to 10.4 Gy, which might be biomarkers for acute radiation-induced intestinal injury. Recent studies have reported that indole 3-propionic acid (IPA), indole-3-carboxaldehyde (I3A) and kynurenic acid (KYNA), which are tryptophan catabolites derived from gut microbiota, aryl hydrocarbon receptor, which is one of the receptors for tryptophan catabolites, and inhibition of indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase-1, which is a main rate-limiting enzyme in intestinal tryptophan catabolism, can protect against radiation-induced intestinal toxicity. A more comprehensive understanding of the dynamics of tryptophan catabolites and their roles in acute radiation-induced intestinal injury is needed to deepen the understanding of the pathogenesis in radiation-induced intestinal injury and exploration of effective diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.

RÉSUMÉ

Objective:To explore the effect of Rho kinase inhibitor on intestinal injury in septic rats and its possible mechanism.Methods:Thirty-two male Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into sham operation group (Sham group), Rho kinase inhibitor Y-27632 control group (Y+Sham group), sepsis model group [cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) group] and Y-27632 pretreatment group (Y+CLP group), with 8 rats in each group. Rat sepsis model was reproduced by CLP. The rats in the Sham group and Y+Sham group were only separated and moved the cecum without ligation and perforation. The rats in the Y+Sham group and Y+CLP group were pretreated with intraperitoneal injection of Y-27632 solution 5 mg/kg 15 minutes before operation; the rats in the Sham group and CLP group were intraperitoneally injected with the same amount of phosphate buffered saline (PBS). Twenty-four hours after operation, the heart blood was collected and the serum diamine oxidase (DAO) content was determined by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Then the small intestine tissue was collected, the pathological changes of the intestinal tissue were observed under the light microscope after hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining, and Chiu's score was performed. The positive expressions of Rho-related coiled-coil kinase 1 (ROCK1) and nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in intestinal tissue were detected by immunohistochemistry. ELISA was used to detect the levels of tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and interleukin-10 (IL-10) in intestinal tissue homogenate.Results:The intestinal tissue structure of the Sham group and Y+Sham group was intact and the mucosa was arranged neatly. Compared with the Sham group, the intestinal mucosa of the CLP group was arranged disorderly, with a large number of inflammatory cells infiltration, and the Chiu's score was significantly increased (3.83±0.27 vs. 0.12±0.11, P < 0.05), indicating that those rats suffered from septic intestinal injury. Compared with the CLP group, the degree of necrosis of intestinal epithelial cells in the Y+CLP group was reduced, a small amount of inflammatory cells infiltration was seen, and the Chiu's score was significantly decreased (2.85±0.21 vs. 3.83±0.27, P < 0.05), indicating that Y-27632 pretreatment could alleviate intestinal injury in septic rats. Compared with the Sham group, the positive expressions of intestinal tissue ROCK1 and NF-κB, the contents of serum DAO and intestinal homogenate TNF-α in the CLP group were significantly increased [ROCK1 expression ( A value): 0.19 (0.18, 0.22) vs. 0.10 (0.09, 0.11), NF-κB expression ( A value): 0.40±0.02 vs. 0.15±0.01, DAO (ng/L): 287.81±23.31 vs. 144.92±17.72, TNF-α (ng/L): 101.08±5.62 vs. 74.81±5.56, all P < 0.05], the level of intestinal homogenate IL-10 was significantly decreased (μg/L: 55.16±5.20 vs. 95.95±7.53, P < 0.05). Compared with the CLP group, the positive expressions of intestinal tissue ROCK1, NF-κB, the contents of serum DAO and intestinal homogenate TNF-α in the Y+CLP group were significantly decreased [ROCK1 expression ( A value): 0.15 (0.13, 0.18) vs. 0.19 (0.18, 0.22), NF-κB expression ( A value): 0.28±0.01 vs. 0.40±0.02, DAO (ng/L): 243.34±19.76 vs. 287.81±23.31, TNF-α (ng/L): 90.41±8.79 vs. 101.08±5.62, all P < 0.05], while the level of intestinal homogenate IL-10 was significantly increased (μg/L: 66.15±5.74 vs. 55.16±5.20, P < 0.05), indicating that the protective effect of Y-27632 pretreatment on sepsis intestinal injury rats might be related to the regulation of RhoA/ROCK1/NF-κB signaling pathway. Conclusion:Rho kinase inhibitors can reduce intestinal injury in septic rats, and the mechanism may be related to inhibiting RhoA/ROCK1/NF-κB signaling pathway and reducing intestinal inflammation in septic rats.
