Abstract

To investigate the relations among bacterial transloation, plasma peptidoglycan elevation, and peripheral blood neutrophil activation during hemorrhagic shock. Prospective, randomized, unblinded animal study. Surgical research laboratories of Shiga University of Medical Science. Male, specific pathogen-free Sprague-Dawley rats. The rats were randomly divided into three groups: a conventional group with normal intestinal flora (NF), an antibiotic (streptomycin and penicillin G) decontaminated group (AD), and a sham shock group with normal intestinal flora. The NF and AD groups were subjected to hemorrhagic shock (mean arterial pressure 30 mm Hg, for 30 to 90 mins). Rats were killed at 30, 60, and 90 mins after shock induction. Systemic blood and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs) were cultured for the determination of bacterial translocation (BT). Systemic plasma peptidoglycan and endotoxin concentrations were measured. To evaluate peripheral blood neutrophil activation, phagocytosis and hydrogen peroxide generation were assayed by flow cytometry. In the NF group, BT to MLNs was significantly increased from 30 mins after shock induction. Blood culture and plasma endotoxin were positive at 90 mins but there were no significant differe...Continue Reading
