This study was undertaken to investigate the effect and mechanism of recombinant human growth hormone (rhGH) and to alleviate intestinal translocation of bacteria and endotoxin in murine obstructive jaundice. METHODS:A group of 42 Wistar rats were divided into 3 groups:sham operation (SO), bile duct ligation (BDL), and BDL and rhGH treatment (rhGH). By the end of the experiment,on day 7, the animals were killed, and their liver function and serum endotoxin were measured, bacterial cultures of the liver, kidney and mesenchymal lymph were made. Terminal ileum mucosa was observed under an electron microscope. RESULTS:Liver function was improved more significantly in the rhGH group than in the BDL group. The value of endotoxin in the rhGH group was 0.38±0.03 EU/ml, significantly lower than that in the BDL group (0.65±0.04 EU/ml, P【0.01), and similar to that in the SO group (0.30±0.02 EU/ml, P】0.05). The rate of bacteria translocation in the liver, kidney and mesenteric lymph was much higher in the BDL group than in other two groups. The rate of bacteria translocation in mesenteric lymph was 64.29%,significantly higher than that in the SO group and the rhGH group (P【0.05). There was no significant difference in bacteria translocation rate between the SO group and the rhGH group (P】0.05). Under an electron microscope , ileum mucosa epithelial cells in the BDL group were necrotic, and organelle were markedly metamorphic. In the rhGH group, ultrastructural changes were less evident or similar to those in the SO group. CONCLUSION:rhGH has significant protective effects on intestinal mucosa barrier in obstructive jaundice, and reduces intestinal translocation of bacteria and endotoxin.展开更多

文摘目的探讨低氧暴露下胃肠黏膜屏障损伤的机制及参芪花粉片对其产生的保护作用,为胃肠黏膜的应激损伤防治提供科学依据。方法 60只SD大鼠随机分为平原对照组(PCT)、单纯低氧暴露组(SHE)和低氧暴露+参芪花粉片保护组(GAP),在模拟海拔7 000 m的低压舱内暴露72 h,观察各组大鼠小肠黏膜厚度改变、肠上皮细胞凋亡、肠道细菌移位情况,检测血清和小肠的TNF-α和IL-6水平,以及TLR4 m RNA表达水平。结果低氧暴露组大鼠肠黏膜损伤严重,紧密连接间隙增宽,硝酸镧颗粒进入上皮细胞紧密连接间隙内以及周围组织间隙或细胞内,肠系膜淋巴结和脾脏有细菌移位;低氧暴露+参芪花粉保护组肠黏膜损伤减轻,黏膜厚度增加,硝酸镧颗粒很少进入组织间隙和细胞内,移位细菌明显减少。与平原对照组比较,低氧暴露组血清内毒素、TNF-α和IL-6水平显著增高,参芪花粉片保护组血清内毒素、TNF-α和IL-6水平显著降低;低氧暴露后空肠组织TLR4 m RNA表达量显著增加,给予参芪花粉片后TLR4表达量明显下降,差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论低氧暴露能引起严重的肠黏膜屏障功能损伤,给予参芪花粉片后可以降低肠黏膜通透性,对肠黏膜损伤具有一定的保护作用。
