ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:
To investigate the effect of Gypenoside XLIX (Gyp-XLIX) on acute splenic injury (ASI) induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) in septic mice, a study was conducted.METHODS:
Sixty healthy mice were randomly divided into six groups the NC group, the Sham group, the Sham + Gyp-XLIX group, the CLP group, the CLP + Gyp-XLIX group, and the CLP + Dexamethasone (DEX) group. The NC group did not undergo any operation, while the rest of the groups underwent CLP to establish the sepsis model. The Sham group only underwent open-abdominal suture surgery without cecum puncture. After the operation, the groups were immediately administered the drug for a total of 5 days. Various methods such as hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, biochemical kits, qRT-PCR, and reactive oxygen species (ROS) were used for analysis.RESULTS:
The results demonstrated that Gyp-XLIX effectively mitigated the splenic histopathological damage, while reducing the malondialdehyde (MDA) lipid peroxidation index and enhancing the antioxidant activities of catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH) and total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC). The utilization of Dihydroethidium (DHE) fluorescent probe revealed that Gyp-XLIX inhibited the acute splenic accumulation of ROS induced by CLP in septic mice. Further investigations revealed that Gyp-XLIX exhibited a down-regulatory effect on the protein levels of inflammatory mediators iNOS and COX-2, consequently leading to the suppression of pro-inflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-6, and IL-1ß. Additionally, it up-regulated the expression of anti-inflammatory factor IL-10.CONCLUSION:
In conclusion, Gyp-XLIX was significantly effective in attenuating CLP-induced acute splenic inflammation and oxidative stress in septic mice.Palabras clave
