Protective effect of curcumin on acute lung injury induced by intestinal ischaemia/reperfusion.
RatIschaemia-reperfusionIntestinal / mesentericWistar albinomalen = 30 rats in total, 10 per group across sham, ischaemia/reper…gastric gavage100 mg/kg3 days before ischaemia/reperfusion
Model: intestinal ischaemia/reperfusion, 1 h superior mesenteric artery ligation followed by 1 h reperfusion, causing acute lung injury
Curcumin lowered lung malondialdehyde, raised superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activity, reduced inducible nitric oxide synthase and increased surfactant protein D, and attenuated oedema, haemorrhage and inflammatory infiltration.
