Popis: | The aim of the present study was to explore the influence of melatonin (MT) on rats with liver ischemia reperfusion injury (IRI) and its mechanism. A total of 66 male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: i) Normal control group, ii) ischemia reperfusion group (IR group) and iii) melatonin treatment group (MT group). Rats in the MT group were administered an intraperitoneal injection of MT (10 mg/kg, 1 ml) at 70 and 35 min before ischemia, early reperfusion, and 1 and 2 h after reperfusion, respectively. Blood was removed at the normal time-point (prior to any processes), 35 min before ischemia, 2, 4, 8 and 24 h after reperfusion. Subsequently the rats were sacrificed. The pathological changes of liver tissues, interleukin-1 receptor antagonist (IL-1Ra) gene and IL-1 expression levels were detected. There were no evident differences between the immediate reperfusion and 2 h IR group and MT group. The liver structure injury of the 4, 8 and 24 h MT groups were improved to various differences compared to the corresponding IR group; liver IL-1β of the MT group at 35 min after ischemia, and 2, 4, 8 and 24 h after reperfusion was evidently lower than that of the IR group (P |
