| 1 | Nitric oxide-releasing aspirin but not conventional aspirin improves healing of experimental colitis显示文摘AIM:To determine the effect of non-selective cyclooxygenase (COX) inhibitors,selective COX-2 inhibitors and nitric oxide (NO)-releasing aspirin in the healing of ulcerative colitis.METHODS:Rats with 2,4,6 trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNBS)-induced colitis received intragastric (ig) treatment with vehicle,aspirin (ASA) (a nonselective COX inhibitor),celecoxib (a selective COX-2 inhibitor) or NO-releasing ASA for a period of ten days.The area of colonic lesions,colonic blood flow (CBF),myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and expression of proinflammatory markers COX-2,inducible form of nitric oxide synthase (iNOS),IL-1β and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were assessed.The effects of glyceryl trinitrate (GTN),a NO donor,and 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,5-dihydro-4,4,5,5-tetramethyl-1H-imidazolyl-1-oxy-3-oxide,onopotassium salt (carboxy-PTIO),a NO scavenger,administered without and with ASA or NO-ASA,and the involvement of capsaicin-sensitive afferent nerves in the mechanism of healing the experimental colitis was also determined.RESULTS:Rats with colitis developed macroscopic and microscopic colonic lesions accompanied by a significant decrease in the CBF,a significant rise in colonic weight,MPO activity and plasma IL-1β and TNF-α levels.These effects were aggravated by ASA and 5-(4-chlorophenyl)-1-(4-methoxyphenyl)3-(trifluoromethyl)-1H-pyrazole (SC-560),but not celecoxib and counteracted by concurrent treatment with a synthetic prostaglandin E 2 (PGE 2) analog.Treatment with NO-ASA dose-dependently accelerated colonic healing followed by a rise in plasma NO x content and CBF,suppression of MPO and downregulation of COX-2,iNOS,IL-1β and TNF-α mRNAs.Treatment with GTN,the NO donor,significantly inhibited the ASA-induced colonic lesions and increased CBF,while carboxy-PTIO or capsaicin-denervation counteracted the NO-ASAinduced improvement of colonic healing and the accompanying increase in the CBF.These effects were restored by co-treatment with calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) and NO-ASA in capsaicin-denervated animals.CONCLUSION:NO-releasing ASA,in contrast to ASA,COX-1 inhibitors,and SC-560,accelerated the healing of colitis via a mechanism involving NO mediated improvement of microcirculation and activation of sensory nerves releasing CGRP. | Malgorzata Zwolinska-Wcislo Tomasz Brzozowski Agata Ptak-Belowska Aneta Targosz Katarzyna Urbanczyk Slawomir Kwiecien Zbigniew Sliwowski | 2011 | World Journal of Gastroenterology2011，17，36： | 2 |
