Research Abstract |
We established the colon ascendens stent puncture model in mice. An NFkB decoy was used for this treatment. The suvival rate improved from 73% to 100% in the pre-treatment group.The concentration of leucotoriene in the BALF decreased from 4.2ng/ml to 1.3mg/ml in the pre-treatment group. A significant different was thus observed between the CASP group and pre-treatment group. We concluded that the inflammation in the abdominal cavity had been suppressed by intra-peritoneal administration of NFkB decoy. Thereafter inflammation of the lungs had been suppressed. It may prevented the onset of sepsis-related shock.
