Abstract
Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion has been implicated in the systemic inflammatory response and organ injury in hemorrhagic shock, but the exact role of the intestine has never been directly demonstrated. Preconditioning (PC) with brief periods of intermittent ischemia is a known potent anti-ischemic intervention and thus can be used as a tool to assess the role of local intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury in systemic inflammatory response. Thus rats were first subjected to sham surgery or intestinal preconditioning with four cycles of 1-min ischemia and 10 min of reperfusion 24 h before hemorrhagic shock followed by resuscitation. PC reduced fluid requirements, lung edema, and lactate and tumor necrosis factor-α production. These effects were abolished by the heme-oxygenase-1 (HO-1) inhibitor tin protoporphyrin (Sn-PP). PC induced more than fivefold in intestinal HO-1 expression. These results suggest that intestinal ischemia-reperfusion is a major trigger for inflammatory response and organ injury in nonseptic shock. HO-1 appears to play an important role in the protective effect of intestinal preconditioning.
