Puerarin, the main isoflavone glycoside extracted from the root of Pueraria lobata, is widely prescribed for patients with cardiovascular disorders in China. This study investigates the effect of puerarin on severe burn-induced acute myocardial injury in rats and its underlying mechanisms.Healthy adult Wistar rats were divided into three groups: (1) sham group, sham burn treatment; (2) burn group,...
Angiotensin II is able to trigger inflammatory responses through an angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor. The role of AT1 receptor in acute lung injury (ALI) is poorly understood. Mice were randomly divided into three groups (n=40 each groups): NS group; LPS group (2mg/kg LPS intratracheally); and LPS+ZD 7155 group, 10mg/kg ZD 7155 (an AT1 receptor antagonist) intraperitoneally 30min prior to LPS...
This study was made to evaluate the effect of SB203580, a specific p38 MAP kinase inhibitor, on burn-induced hepatic injury as well as the activation of nuclear factor (NF)-κB in severely burned rats. Sprague–Dawley rats were divided into three groups: (1) sham group, rats underwent sham burn; (2) burn group, rats given third-degree burns over 30% total body surface area (TBSA) and treated with vehicle...
This study was designed to investigate the role of p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase on Kupffer cells (KCs) secretion of proinflammatory cytokines such as tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and interleukin (IL)-1β and hepatic injury following burn trauma. Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized into four groups: (1) sham burn rats given vehicle, (2) sham burn rats given the p38 MAP kinase inhibitor...
