摘要
背景:急性胸部撞击后所致的肺挫伤(钝性肺挫伤)常引起呼吸功能异常和继发性炎性反应,并参与全身炎性反应综合征和多器官功能障碍综合征,其发病原因及致病机制亟待明确。目的:观察胸部撞击所致钝性肺挫伤急性期细胞凋亡的变化及其川芎嗪对其的影响。方法:健康雄性SD大鼠随机分为正常对照组、模型组、川芎嗪治疗组,后两组制备胸部撞击伤模型,川芎嗪治疗组建模后立即腹腔注射川芎嗪80mg/kg1次。在创伤发生后1,2,3h观察肺组织病理形态学及细胞凋亡的改变、检测肺水肿程度和肺血管通透性改变,免疫组织化学检测肺组织Bcl-2、Bax和Caspase-3的表达及血液中肿瘤坏死因子α水平变化。结果与结论:模型组肿瘤坏死因子α水平在创伤后1h即显著增加,创伤后2h及3h间急剧增加(P<0.05);创伤后2h及3h肺组织细胞凋亡指数及肺组织损伤程度显著增高(均P<0.05);肺血管通透性及肺水肿程度增加(P<0.05);Caspase-3表达显著增高(P<0.05),Bcl-2/Bax比值显著降低(P<0.05)。川芎嗪治疗组在相应时间点相对于模型组肿瘤坏死因子α水平显著降低(P<0.05),肺组织内细胞凋亡指数及肺组织损伤程度降低(P<0.05),肺血管通透性及肺水肿程度减轻(P<0.05);Caspase-3表达下降(P<0.05),Bcl-2/Bax比值增加(P<0.01)。结果提示,川芎嗪可通过抑制肿瘤坏死因子α表达,下调Caspase-3的表达并提高Bcl-2/Bax的比值,以降低胸部撞击所致肺组织急性期的异常凋亡并减轻胸部撞击所致急性期肺挫伤。
BACKGROUND: Pulmonary contusion induced by blunt chest trauma can result in respiratory dysfunction and secondary inflammatory reaction, which can take part in the occurrence of systemic inflammatory response syndrome and multiple-organ dysfunction syndrome. However, the reason and mechanism ofpulmonary contusion is urgently for clarity OBJECTIVE: To investigate the protective effect and mechanism of ligustrazine on cell apoptosis in the acute stage of pulmonary contusion induced by blunt chest trauma in rats. METHODS: Healthy male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided equally and randomly i.nto three groups: control group, model group and ligustrazine group. Blunt chest trauma models were prepared in the latter two groups. Rats in the ligustrazine group were intraperitoneally injected with 80 mg/kg ligustrazine immediately after blunt chest trauma. Lung tissues were collected at 1,2 and 3 hours after blunt chest trauma to observe pathomorphological changes. The apoptotic index, pulmonary microvascular permeability and severity of pulmonary edema were detected to assess the lung function. Expressions of Caspase-3, Bax and Bcl-2 were detected by immunohistochemical staining, and blood tumor necrosis factor alpha was also detected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: In the model group, tumor necrosis factor alpha increased at 1 hour and increased sharply in 2 and 3 hours after blunt chest trauma (P 〈 0.05); the apoptotic index and the degree of lung injury increased significantly at 2 and 3 hours after blunt chest trauma (P 〈 0.05); pulmonary microvascular permeability and degree of pulmonary edema were increased (P 〈 0.05); the expression of Caspase-3 increase significantly (P 〈 0.05) with the decrease of the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax (P 〈 0.05). In the ligustrazine group, tumor necrosis factor alpha decreased notably (P 〈 0.05); the apoptotic index and the degree of lung injury decreased significantly after blunt chest trauma (P 〈 0.05); pulmonary microvascular permeability and the degree of pulmonary edema were relieved (P 〈 0.05); the expression of Caspase-3 decreased significantly (P 〈 0.05) with the increase of the ratio of Bcl-2 to Bax after treated with ligustrazine (P 〈 0.01 ). These findings indicate that ligustrazine can alleviate cell apoptosis in the acute stage of pulmonary contusion induced by blunt chest trauma by inhibiting the tumor necrosis factor alpha, down-regulating the expression of Caspase-3 and enhancing the ratio of Bcl-2/Bax.
