Treatment of hemorrhagic shock with hypertonic saline solution modulates the inflammatory response to live bacteria in lungs
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Autores: Fernandes,C.I.; Llimona,F.; Godoy,L.C.; Negri,E.M.; Pontieri,V.; Moretti,A.I.; Fernandes,T.R.; Soriano,F.G.; Velasco,I.T.; Souza,H.P.
Shock and resuscitation render patients more susceptible to acute lung injury due to an exacerbated immune response to subsequent inflammatory stimuli. To study the role of innate immunity in this situation, we investigated acute lung injury in an experimental model of ischemia-reperfusion (I-R) followed by an early challenge with live bacteria. Conscious rats (N = 8 in each group) were submitted to controlled hemorrhage and resuscitated with isotonic saline (SS, 0.9% NaCl) or hypertonic saline (HS, 7.5% NaCl) solution, followed by intratracheal or intraperitoneal inoculation of Escherichia coli. After infection, toll-like receptor (TLR) 2 and 4 mRNA expression was monitored by RT-PCR in infected tissues. Plasma levels of tumor necrosis factor α and...

Purine nucleotides reduce superoxide production by nitric oxide synthase in a murine sepsis model
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Autores: Barbeiro,H.V.; Barbeiro,D.F.; Debbas,V.; Souza,H.P.; Laurindo,F.R.; Velasco,I.T.; Soriano,F.G.
Sepsis involves a systemic inflammatory response of multiple endogenous mediators, resulting in many of the injurious and sometimes fatal physiological symptoms of the disease. This systemic activation leads to a compromised vascular response and endothelial dysfunction. Purine nucleotides interact with purinoceptors and initiate a variety of physiological processes that play an important role in maintaining cardiovascular function. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effects of ATP on vascular function in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS) model of sepsis. LPS induced a significant increase in aortic superoxide production 16 h after injection. Addition of ATP to the organ bath incubation solution reduced superoxide production by the aortas of...

Immune cells and oxidative stress in the endotoxin tolerance mouse model
Provedor de dados: Brazilian Journal of Medical and Biological Research
Autores: Melo,E.S.; Barbeiro,H.V.; Ariga,S.; Goloubkova,T.; Curi,R.; Velasco,I.T.; Vasconcelos,D.; Soriano,F.G.
Sepsis is a systemic inflammatory response that can lead to tissue damage and death. In order to increase our understanding of sepsis, experimental models are needed that produce relevant immune and inflammatory responses during a septic event. We describe a lipopolysaccharide tolerance mouse model to characterize the cellular and molecular alterations of immune cells during sepsis. The model presents a typical lipopolysaccharide tolerance pattern in which tolerance is related to decreased production and secretion of cytokines after a subsequent exposure to a lethal dose of lipopolysaccharide. The initial lipopolysaccharide exposure also altered the expression patterns of cytokines and was followed by an 8- and a 1.5-fold increase in the T helper 1 and 2...
