Abstract: Objective To study the effects of small dosage insulin on intestinal inflammatory responses to endotoxin rats. Method Thirty two male SD rats were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 8): control group, endotoxin (LPS,6 mg/kg i.p.)group, regular insulin(RI,0.5 IU/kg hypodermic) group and LPS(6 mg/kg i.p) + RI (0.5 IU/kg hypodermic)group. Six hours after LPS or saline injection,all rats were laparotomized to observe the congestion in intestinal mucosa with naked-eyes and photography.Then a segment of intestine was stained with HE to observe the pathological changes. The expressions of IL-6 and TNF-α were detected by RT-PCR.The systemic inflammatory response,blood sugar and food taken in rats were observed simultaneously. Software SPSS 13.0 was used to perform ANOVA and Chi-square test for statistical analysis. Results Compared with LPS group, the differences in hyperemia and inflammatory cell infiltration in intestinal tissue were not noticeable in LPS + RI group. The expression of IL-6 and TNF-α were significantly attenuated in RI + LPS group (P < 0.01). All rats in LPS group manifested systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) four or five hours after LPS treatment, while there was none in LPS + RI group. Rats in LPS group took less food than rats of other groups while the blood sugar had litter difference in all groups (P > 0.05). Conclusions Small dosage of insulin could reduce intestinal inflammation caused by endotoxemia. Early administration of insulin ould prevent the presence of SIRS while it has no obvious influence on blood sugar.
