Abstract
To investigate the protective effects of oxymatrine OMT on lung ischemia reperfusion injury LIRI in rabbits models of LIRI in rabbit were used Thirtytwo rabbits were randomly divided into four groups control group n = 8 ischemia reperfusion group I/R group n = 8 OMTl group n = 8 OMT2 group n = 8 Lung tissue samples were collected at 40 80 120 min timepoints after lung ischemia reperfusion TNFα 1I8 IL10 apoptosis index AI and index of quantitative assessment of histologic lung injury IQA were measured in each group TNFα and IL8 in I/R group were significantly higher than those of the control group and OMT2 group P 001 but in OMT2 group they were significantly lower than those of OMTl group P 005 IL10 in OMT2 group and OMTl group was significantly higher than that of I/R group P 001 But in OMTl group it was significantly lower than that of OMT2 group P 005 AI in I/R group was significantly higher than that of OMT2 group and the control group at 80 min after lung ischemia reperfusion P 001 IQA in OMTl group and OMT2 group was significantly lower than that of the I/R group P 001 Oxymatrine can protect against LIRI in rabbits by upregulating levels of IL10 and downregulating levels of TNFα and IL8 inhibiting the alveolar cells apoptosis and inflammatory response and attenuating the acute LIRIThis study was supported by the National Natural Sciences Foundation of China Grant No 30471984 the Foundation of Bureau of Public Health of Chongqing Grants 062001 06B26 and 20102127 and the project Innovation of Science and Technology Chongqing Science and Technology Commission Project No cstc2013jcyjA10108
