  • Objective To evaluate the protective effect of ulinastatin on reperfusion injury of liver graft in rats and the related mechanisms. Methods The orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) model between syngeneic Sprague-Dawley rats was used, and recipient rats were allocated in three groups:sham operation (SO) group, control group, and ulinastatin (UTI) group. Just after OLT procedure, rats in UTI group received ulinastatin injection at a dose of 1×104 IU/kg by tail vein, and rats in control group received saline injection with equal dose. Four rats at 6 hour and the others at 24 hour after OLT were sacrificed; the sera and liver were collected. The ALT levels in serum were detected and hepatic histological changes and hepatocellular apoptosis were examined. The infiltration of Kupffer cells was detected by immunochemistry analysis, and the relative mRNA levels of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-1β and monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1 in the liver tissue and the content of these cytokines in the sera were measured with real time PCR and ELISA. The activation of transcription factor NF-κB was measured with Western blotting analysis. Results Compared with the rats in control group, at the same time-point rats in UTI group exhibited lower levels of ALT (P<0.01), better hepatic histological changes (P<0.01), less hepatocellular apoptosis (P<0.01), lower mRNA expression of TNF-α, IL-6, IL-1β and MCP-1 in the liver tissue and lower content of these cytokines in the sera (P<0.01). Moreover, the activation of NF-κB in UTI group was significantly down-regulated in comparison with that in control group. Conclusion Ulinastatin could reduce reperfusion injury for liver graft via inhibiting inflammatory response and deserve deep research as novel protective agent.
