Abstract |
Patients with obstructive jaundice are prone to develop cardiovascular complications during surgery. However, the underlying mechanisms remain largely unknown. The present study was aimed to investigate the role of p38 MAPK-pHsp27 pathway in vascular hyporesponsiveness induced by obstructive jaundice. Firstly, an experimental rat obstructive jaundice model was established by bile duct ligation (BDL). We found that the thoracic aorta rings isolated from BDL rats showed decreased response to norepinephrine and acetylcholine, while continuous intraperitoneal injection with SB203580, a selective P38 MAPK inhibitor, could significantly prevented BDL-induced hyporeactivity. Also, the immunohistochemistry and Western blot assays revealed that the up-regulation of pHsp27 and F-actin in thoracic aorta rings from BDL rats and bilirubin-treated vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) were also inhibited by SB203580. Moreover, we identified that bilirubin could induced decreased cell proliferation of VSMCs by using CCK8 assay and which was also prevented by SB203580. All these data demonstrated that p38 MAPK-pHsp27 mediates vascular hyporesponsiveness in rats with obstructive jaundice by modulating the expression level of pHsp27 and F-actin, and that inhibition of p38 MAPK signaling could remodel the vascular activity.
