METHODS Medication [BPC 157,L-NAME,L-arginine(alone/combined),saline] was bath at the blood deprived colon segment. During reperfusion,medication was BPC 157 or saline. We recorded(USB microscope camera) vessel presentation through next 15 min of ischemic colitis(ICrats) or reperfusion(removed ligations)(IC + RL-rats);oxidative stress as MDA(increased(IC-and IC + RLrats)) and NO levels(decreased(IC-rats);increased(IC + RL-rats)) in colon tissue. IC + OB-rats [IC-rats had additional colon obstruction(OB)] for 3 d(IC + OBrats),then received BPC 157 bath. RESULTS Commonly,in colon segment(25 mm,2 ligations on left colic artery and vein,3 arcade vessels within ligated segment),in IC-,IC + RL-,IC + OB-rats,BPC 157(10 μg/kg) bath(1 m L/rat) increased vessel presentation,inside/outside arcade interconnections quickly reappeared,mucosal folds were preserved and the pale areas were small and markedly reduced. BPC 157 counteracted worsening effects induced by L-NAME(5 mg) and L-arginine(100 mg). MDA-and NO-levels were normal in BPC 157 treated IC-rats and IC + RLrats. In addition,on day 10,BPC 157-treated IC + OBrats presented almost completely spared mucosa with very small pale areas and no gross mucosal defects;the treated colon segment was of normal diameter,and only small adhesions were present.CONCLUSION BPC 157 is a fundamental treatment that quickly restores blood supply to the ischemically injured area and rapidly activates collaterals. This effect involves the NO system.展开更多

We recorded the vessel presentation(filled/appearance or emptied/disappearance) between the 5 arcade vessels arising from the SAPDV on the ventral duodenum side, the inferior anterior pancreaticoduodenal vein(IAPDV) and superior mesenteric vein(SMV) as bypassing vascular pathway to document the duodenal lesions presentation; increased NO-and oxidative stress [malondialdehyde(MDA)]-levels in duodenum.RESULTS Unlike the severe course in the SAPDV-ligated controls, after BPC 157 application, the rats exhibited strong attenuation of the mucosal lesions and serosal congestion, improved vessel presentation, increased interconnections, increased branching by more than 60% from the initial value, the IAPDV and SMV were not congested. Interestingly, after 5 min and 30 min of L-NAME and L-arginine treatment alone, decreased mucosal and serosal duodenal lesions were observed; their effect was worsened at 24 h, and no effect on the collateral vessels and branching was seen. Together, L-NAME+L-arginine antagonized each other's response, and thus, there was an NO-related effect. With BPC 157, all SAPDV-ligated rats receiving L-NAME and/or L-arginine appeared similar to the rats treated with BPC 157 alone. Also, BPC 157 in SAPDV-ligated rats normalized levels of NO and MDA, two oxidative stress markers, in duodenal tissues.CONCLUSION BPC 157, rapidly bypassing occlusion, rescued the original duodenal flow through IAPDV to SMV flow, aneffect related to the NO system and reduction of free radical formation.展开更多
