Abstract: Objective To investigate the effects of ω-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (ω-3 PUFA) on inflammatory response of intestine and bacteria translocation in rats with traumatic shock (TS) in order to explore the underlying mechanism.Methods A total of 36 male Wistar rats provided by Academy of Military Medical Sciences Animal Center were assigned randomly (random number) into 3 groups (n =12 in each group):sham operation group,TS model group and PUFA pretreatment group.Rat models of IS were established by comminuted fracture of femur and depletion of blood,and 2 mg/kg ω-3 PUFA or normal saline were injected 12 hours and 2 hours before modeling.Blood specimens were collected and intestinal tissue samples were obtained 120 min after modeling.The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor-o (TNF-α),IL-1β,IL-10 and 8-iso-prostaglandin F 2α (8-iso-PGF2α) were measured with ELISA.Light microscopic examination was carried out for histopathological assessment of the intestina tissue and the intestinal mucosa damage index ( IMDI ) was calculated.The number of marked bacilli found in mesenteric lymph nodes,lung,liver,spleen,and kidney tissues were counted under a fluorescent microscope.The percentages for categorical variables and mean ± SD for continuous variables were expressed. Chi-square test and unpaired t-test were used for comparisons among groups,and statistical significance defined as P < 0.05.Results The levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,IL-10 and 8-iso-PGF2α,the IMDI and the positive rates of bacteria translocation in TS model group were [ (325.14 ±21.17) ng/ml,(26.93 +2.58) μg/L,(7.59 ± 1.26) μg/L,(259.73 +61.32) pg/ml,(4.15 +0.37) and 58.33%,respectively] and those in PUFA group were [ (251.47 + 19.16) ng/ml,(17.81±1.94) μg/L,(9.44±1.85) μg/L,(171.44±39.25) pg/ml,(3.28±0.43) and 36.67%,respectively ].And those biomarkers in both TS group and PUFA group were higher obviously than those in sham group [ (37.02 ±5.54) ng/ml,(2.49 ±0.67) μg/L,(2.93 ±0.74) μg/L,(81.26 ± 15.18) pg/ml,(0.33 ±0.12) and 6.67%,respectively,P<0.01].Compared with TS model group,the levels of TNF-α,IL-1β and 8-iso-PGF2α,the IMDI and the positive rates of bacteria translocation were lower,and the levels of IL-10 were higher in PUFA group ( P < 0.01 or P < 0.05 ).Conclusions The supplementation of ω-3 PUFA lessens the injury of intestina mucosa after traumatic shock,and it may be associated with the inhibition of inflammatory response by intestine and bacteria translocation.was carried out for histopathological assessment of the intestina tissue and the intestinal mucosa damage index ( IMDI ) was calculated.The number of marked bacilli found in mesenteric lymph nodes,lung,liver,spleen,and kidney tissues were counted under a fluorescent microscope.The percentages for categorical variables and mean ± SD for continuous variables were expressed.
