Methods:E. coli 026:B6 LPS was injected at a dosage of 12. 5 mg/kg through the artery to reproduce endo toxic shock. BPIP at a dosage of 5 mg/kg (BPIP-treated group) or equal volume of normal saline (control group) were injected immediately after the injection of LPS. Results: ①Survival time of the shocked animals was prolonged and the 24 h survival rate was also significantly increased in BPIP-treated group as compared with the control group. ②The mean arterial pressure, left intraventricular systolic pressure, isovolemic ven tricular pressure and ±dp/dtmax. were significantly higher in BPIP-treated group than in control group. ③ Plasma levels of glutamic-pyruvic transaminase and urea nitrogen were markedly higher but those of endotox in and TNFα were lower in BPIP-treated group than in control group. Conclusion: BPIP can exert significant protective effects on cardiac, hepatic and renal functions in rats after endotoxic shock, indicating that BPIP might be a good choice in treatment of sepsis/septic shock.展开更多
