BACKGROUND: 21-Aminosteroids are potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant drugs that provide remarkable endothelial protection in different models of tissue ischemia-reperfusion and inflammation. The effects of 21-aminosteroids in sepsis, a highly inflammatory condition leading to panendothelial activation and injury, are largely uninvestigated. We therefore explored the effects of the 21-aminosteroid U74386G on hepatic blood flow, endothelial cell function, and sinusoidal structure in a canine model of fluid-resuscitated, hyperdynamic endotoxic shock.
MATERIALS AND METHODS: Following invasive hemodynamic monitoring and placement of ultrasonic flow probes around the common hepatic artery and the portal vein, 12 anesthetized dogs received 2 mg/kg iv of Escherichia coli endotoxin, followed by generous saline infusion, before randomization into two groups. One group (N = 6) received U74389G as an iv bolus of 80 microg/kg, followed by a continuous infusion of 10 microg/kg. min. The other group (N = 6) received an equivalent volume of vehicle. Hyaluronic acid was measured in plasma for in vivo evaluation of endothelial cell function. Liver biopsies were taken after 4 h of endotoxic shock and prepared for light and electron microscopic examination.
RESULTS: Compared with the vehicle-treated controls, U74389G maintained a higher blood flow in the hepatic artery and in the portal vein, without markedly influencing the systemic hemodynamic response. The endotoxin-induced increase in plasma hyaluronic acid levels was significantly attenuated following U74389G treatment (70 +/- 14 vs 188 +/- 24 ng/mL after 3 h of endotoxic shock; P < 0.05). Morphological studies showed that the U74389G-treated group had less sinusoidal endothelial cell damage together with a dramatic reduction of neutrophil infiltration into the liver tissue.
CONCLUSION: U74389G can preserve the functional and structural integrity of endothelial cells in the hepatic sinusoid during hyperdynamic endotoxic shock. This endothelial-protective effect was associated with a better maintained hepatic blood flow and a significant attenuation of inflammatory liver injury.
