Objective: To study the relationship between the release of inflammatory cytokines and mobilization of zinc into liver, and the expression of metallothionein and Zip14 transporter after an abdominal surgery in rats.
Materials: Thirty-five male Wistar rats were subjected to experimental surgical stress, then the subgroups of five animals were killed at 3, 6, 9, 12, 16, 20 and 24 h. Matched groups without surgery were used as controls.
Methods: Zinc levels were determined by AAS, intracellular zinc by zinquin and dithizone staining. Hepatic metallothionein was assayed by a Cd-saturation method, and IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-β by immunoassays. Zip14 expression was analyzed by real-time RT-PCR, and protein level by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.
Results: Experimental surgery produced a hypozincemia, and the increase of hepatic zinc also produced the release of IL-1β, IL-6 in serum, and the increase of hepatic MT. Histochemistry showed a decrease of free zinc at 3-6 h, but an increase at 9 h (zinquin); meanwhile, total intracellular zinc increased after 9 h (dithizone). RNAm and protein levels of Zip14 were elevated between 6 and 20 h after surgery.
Conclusion: Biochemical changes described in this work could be part of the APR, and directed to respond to the damage produced during surgical trauma.
