摘要：Purpose: To determine the effect of dexmedetomidine on sepsis-mediated acute kidney injury (SAKI) in rats. Methods: Twenty-four SD rats were randomly divided into blank untreated control group, model group given lipopolysaccharide at a dose of 10 mg/kg, dexmedetomidine (Dex) group, and glycogen synthase kinase-3 beta (GSK-3 beta) inhibitor group given sb216763. In addition, Dex and inhibitor groups received the same dose of lipopolysaccharide as model group. There were 10 rats in each group. Pathological changes in kidney tissue, and the levels of related oxidative stress indices were determined. Results: Compared with the model group, granular degeneration of renal tubular epithelial cells was significantly reduced in Dex group, and the population of exfoliated cells decreased (p < 0.05). The levels of malondialdehyde (MDA) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in dexmedetomidine and GSK-3 beta inhibitor groups were significantly reduced, while superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH) and catalase (CAT) activities were markedly raised, relative to model group (p < 0.05). Protein levels of pGSK-3 beta and Nrf2 markedly were raised in dexmedetomidine and GSK-3 beta inhibitor groups (p < 0.01). After intervention with Dex and GSK-3 beta inhibitor, there were marked upregulations in mRNA and protein expression levels of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1), when compared with model group (p < 0.05). Conclusion: Dexmedetomidine ameliorates SAKI injury in rats via suppression of oxidative stress. Its mechanism of action may be related to the regulation of GSK-3 beta/Nrf2/ARE signaling pathway. This finding may be a novel approach to the clinical management of SAKI.
