BACKGROUND: Sepsis and related multiple organ dysfunction result in high morbidity and mortality. Angiotensin (Ang)-(1-7), a biologically active peptide, has various opposing effects of Ang II. Because the effect of Ang-(1-7) on sepsis is unknown, in this study we aimed to determine the impact of Ang-(1-7) on pathophysiologic changes in a clinically relevant model of polymicrobial sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP).
METHODS: Sepsis was induced by CLP in rats under anesthesia. Rats were randomized to one of the following five groups: (1) sham-operated group, (2) Ang-(1-7) (1 mg/kg intravenously infused for 1 h) at 3 h and 6 h after sham operation, (3) CLP, (4) Ang-(1-7) at 3 h after CLP, and (5) Ang-(1-7) at 3 h and 6 h after CLP. Rats were observed for 24 h after CLP surgery and then killed for subsequent histological examination.
RESULTS: Ang-(1-7) significantly improved the survival of septic rats (83.3% vs. 36.4% at 24 h following CLP; p = 0.009). Ang-(1-7) attenuated the CLP-induced decreased arterial pressure and organ dysfunction, indicated by diminished biochemical variables and fewer histological changes. Ang-(1-7) significantly reduced the level of plasma interleukin-6 and pulmonary superoxide production (p < 0.05). Moreover, caspase-3 and cytoplasmic IκB expression in liver was significantly lower in the Ang-(1-7)-treated CLP rats (p < 0.05).
CONCLUSIONS: In this clinically relevant model of sepsis, Ang-(1-7) ameliorates CLP-induced organ dysfunction and improves survival, possibly through suppressing the inflammatory response, oxidative stress, and apoptosis, suggesting that Ang-(1-7) could be a potential novel therapeutic approach to treatment of peritonitis and polymicrobial sepsis.
