The Metabolopathy of Tissue Injury, Hemorrhagic Shock, and Resuscitation in a Rat Model.

ABSTRACT: INTRODUCTION:The metabolic consequences of trauma induce significant clinical pathology. In this study, we evaluate the independent, metabolic contributions of tissue injury (TI) and combined tissue injury and hemorrhagic shock (TI/HS) using mass spectrometry (MS) metabolomics in a controlled animal model of critical injury. METHODS:Sprague-Dawley rats (n?=?14) underwent TI alone or TI/HS, followed by resuscitation with normal saline and shed blood. Plasma was collected (baseline, post-laparotomy, post-HS, post-resuscitation) for ultra-high pressure liquid chromatography MS-metabolomics. Repeated-measures ANOVA with Tukey multiple column comparison test compared the fold change of metabolite concentration among the animal groups at corresponding time points. RESULTS:Four hundred forty metabolites were identified. TI alone did not change the metabolite levels versus baseline. TI/HS induced changes in metabolites from glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid cycle, the pentose phosphate, fatty acid and glutathione homeostasis pathways, sulfur metabolism, and urea cycle versus TI alone. Following resuscitation many metabolites normalized to TI alone levels, including lactate, most tri-carboxylic acid metabolites, most urea cycle metabolites, glutathione disulfide, and some metabolites from both the pentose phosphate pathway and sulfur metabolism. CONCLUSIONS:Significant changes occur immediately following TI/HS versus TI alone. These metabolic changes are not explained by dilution as a number of metabolites remained unchanged or even increased following resuscitation. The differential metabolic changes resulting from TI alone and TI/HS provide foundation for future investigations severe injury in humans, where TI and HS are often concurrent. This investigation provides a foundation to evaluate metabolic-related outcomes and design-targeted resuscitation strategies.

Project description:Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is often accompanied by hemorrhage, and treatment of hemorrhagic shock (HS) after TBI is particularly challenging because the two therapeutic treatment strategies for TBI and HS often conflict. Ischemia/reperfusion injury from HS resuscitation can be exaggerated by TBI-induced loss of autoregulation. In HS resuscitation, the goal is to restore lost blood volume, while in the treatment of TBI the priority is focused on maintenance of adequate cerebral perfusion pressure and avoidance of secondary bleeding. In this study, we investigate the responses to resuscitation from severe HS after TBI in rats, using fresh blood, polymerized human hemoglobin (PolyhHb), and lactated Ringer's (LR). Rats were subjected to TBI by pneumatic controlled cortical impact. Shortly after TBI, HS was induced by blood withdrawal to reduce mean arterial pressure (MAP) to 35-40 mmHg for 90 min before resuscitation. Resuscitation fluids were delivered to restore MAP to ~ 65 mmHg and animals were monitored for 120 min. Increased systolic blood pressure variability (SBPV) confirmed TBI-induced loss of autoregulation. MAP after resuscitation was significantly higher in the blood and PolyhHb groups compared to the LR group. Furthermore, blood and PolyhHb restored diastolic pressure, while this remained depressed for the LR group, indicating a loss of vascular tone. Lactate increased in all groups during HS, and only returned to baseline level in the blood reperfused group. The PolyhHb group possessed lower SBPV compared to LR and blood groups. Finally, sympathetic nervous system (SNS) modulation was higher for the LR group and lower for the PolyhHb group compared to the blood group after reperfusion. In conclusion, our results suggest that PolyhHb could be an alternative to blood for resuscitation from HS after TBI when blood is not available, assuming additional testing demonstrate similar favorable results. PolyhHb restored hemodynamics and oxygen delivery, without the logistical constraints of refrigerated blood.

Project description:BackgroundFast and effective treatment of hemorrhagic shock is one of the most important preclinical trauma care tasks e.g., in combat casualties in avoiding severe end-organ damage or death. In scenarios without immediate availability of blood products, alternate regimens of fluid resuscitation represent the only possibility of maintaining sufficient circulation and regaining adequate end-organ oxygen supply. However, the fluid choice alone may affect the extent of the bleeding by interfering with coagulation pathways. This study investigates the impact of hydroxyethyl starch (HES), gelatine-polysuccinate (GP) and balanced electrolyte solution (BES) as commonly used agents for fluid resuscitation on coagulation using a porcine hemorrhagic shock model.MethodsFollowing approval by the State and Institutional Animal Care Committee, life-threatening hemorrhagic shock was induced via arterial blood withdrawal in 24 anesthetized pigs. Isovolumetric fluid resuscitation with either HES, GP or BES (n = 3 × 8) was performed to compensate for the blood loss. Over four hours, hemodynamics, laboratory parameters and rotational thromboelastometry-derived coagulation were analyzed. As secondary endpoint the porcine values were compared to human blood.ResultsAll the agents used for fluid resuscitation significantly affected coagulation. We measured a restriction of laboratory parameters, clot development and clot firmness, particularly in HES- and GP-treated animals. Hemoglobin content dropped in all groups but showed a more pronounced decline in colloid-treated pigs. This effect was not maintained over the four-hour monitoring period.ConclusionHES, GP, and BEL sufficiently stabilized the macrocirculation, but significantly affected coagulation. These effects were most pronounced after colloid and particularly HES administration. Despite suitability for rapid hemodynamic stabilization, colloids have to be chosen with caution, because their molecular properties may affect coagulation directly and as a consequence of pronounced hemodilution. Our comparison of porcine and human coagulation showed increased coagulation activity in pig blood.

Project description:BackgroundCurrent research suggests that administration of vasopressin to patients with uncontrolled hemorrhagic shock (UHS) can avoid the detrimental effects associated with aggressive fluid resuscitation. However, vasopressin has a short half-life of 10~35 minutes in in vivo use and precludes its use in the pre-hospital setting. To increase the half-life of vasopressin, we proposed to synthesize liposome-encapsulated vasopressin and test it in a rat model of UHS.MethodsThe film hydration method was used to prepare liposomal vasopressin consisting of: Dipalmitoylphosphatidylcholine, cholesterol, and dipalmitoyl phosphatidylethanolamine (20:20:1 mole ratio). 42 rats were subjected to UHS and randomly received 5 different treatments (vasopressin, liposomal vasopressin, lactate ringer (LR), liposome only and sham). Outcome of UHS were measured using 4 common prognostic tests: mean arterial pressure (MAP), serum lactate level, inflammatory profile and pulmonary edema.ResultsThe dynamic light scattering results confirmed that we had prepared a successful liposomal vasopressin complex. Comparing the serum vasopressin concentration of liposomal vasopressin and vasopressin treated animals by ELISA, we found that the concentration of vasopressin for the liposomal vasopressin treated group is higher at 60 minutes. However, there was no significant difference between the MAP profile of rats treated with vasopressin and liposomal vasopressin in UHS. We also observed that animals treated with liposomal vasopressin performed indifferently to vasopressin treated rats in serum lactate level, inflammatory profile and edema profile. For most of our assays, the liposome only control behaves similarly to LR resuscitation in UHS rats.ConclusionWe have synthesized a liposomal vasopressin complex that can prolong the serum concentration of vasopressin in a rat model of UHS. Although UHS rats treated with either liposomal vasopressin or vasopressin showed no statistical differences, it would be worthwhile to repeat the experiments with different liposomal compositions.

Project description:Despite recovery of hemodynamics by fluid resuscitation after hemorrhage, development of the systemic inflammatory response and multiple organ dysfunction syndromes can nonetheless lead to death. Minocycline and doxycycline are tetracycline derivatives that are protective in models of hypoxic, ischemic, and oxidative stress. Our aim was to determine whether minocycline and doxycycline protect liver and kidney and improve survival in a mouse model of hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation.Mice were hemorrhaged to 30 mmHg for 3 h and then resuscitated with shed blood followed by half the shed volume of lactated Ringer's solution containing tetracycline (10 mg/kg), minocycline (10 mg/kg), doxycycline (5 mg/kg), or vehicle. For pretreatment plus posttreatment, drugs were administered intraperitoneally prior to hemorrhage followed by second equal dose in Ringer's solution after blood resuscitation. Blood and tissue were harvested after 6 h.Serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) increased to 1,988 and 1,878 U/L after posttreatment with vehicle and tetracycline, respectively, whereas minocycline and doxycycline posttreatment decreased ALT to 857 and 863 U/L. Pretreatment plus posttreatment with minocycline and doxycycline also decreased ALT to 849 and 834 U/L. After vehicle, blood creatinine increased to 134 µM, which minocycline and doxycycline posttreatment decreased to 59 and 56 µM. Minocycline and doxycycline pretreatment plus posttreatment decreased creatinine similarly. Minocycline and doxycycline also decreased necrosis and apoptosis in liver and apoptosis in both liver and kidney, the latter assessed by TUNEL (terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dUTP nick-end labeling) and caspase 3 activation. Lastly after 4.5 h of hemorrhage followed by resuscitation, minocycline and doxycycline (but not tetracycline) posttreatment improved 1-week survival from 38% (vehicle) to 69% and 67%, respectively.Minocycline and doxycycline were similarly protective when given before as after blood resuscitation and might therefore have clinical efficacy to mitigate liver and kidney injury after resuscitated hemorrhage.
