Article Abstract

Animal research in intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is mainly performed in rodent models. Previously, intraperitoneal (I.P.) injections with ketamine-xylazine mixtures were used. Nowadays, volatile anesthetics (isoflurane) are more common. However, the impact of the anesthetic method on intestinal IRI has not been investigated. We aim to analyze the different anesthetic methods and their influence on the extent of intestinal IRI in a rat model. Male Sprague-Dawley rats were used to investigate the effect of I.P. anesthesia on 60 min of intestinal ischemia and 60 min of reperfusion in comparison to hyperoxygenation (100% O) and volatile isoflurane anesthesia. In comparison to I.P. anesthesia with room air (21% O), supplying 100% O improved 7-day survival by cardiovascular stabilization, reducing lactic acidosis and preventing vascular leakage. However, this had no effect on the intestinal epithelial damage, permeability, and inflammatory response observed after intestinal IRI. In contrast to I.P. + 100% O, isoflurane anesthesia reduced intestinal IRI by preventing ongoing low-flow reperfusion hypotension, limiting intestinal epithelial damage and permeability, and by having anti-inflammatory effects. When translating the aforementioned results of this study to clinical situations, such as intestinal ischemia or transplantation, the potential protective effects of hyperoxygenation and volatile anesthetics require further research.

Background: Intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI) is a severe clinical condition associated with high morbidity and mortality. Despite advances in understanding the pathophysiology of IRI, effective therapeutic strategies remain limited. Adipose stem cell (ADSC)-derived exosomes (Exo) have been proven to be appropriate candidates for IRI through the anti-inflammatory effects.

Introduction: Intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a critical condition often requiring emergency intervention. Ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death driven by phospholipid peroxidation, plays a central role in its pathogenesis.

Objective: This study aimed to explore whether CoQ10 could mitigate intestinal IRI by suppressing ferroptosis.

Background: Metastatic esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (mESCC) patients with disease progression after platinum-based first-line chemotherapy (CT) +/- immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) may benefit from second-line CT, mostly based on paclitaxel and irinotecan, but no randomized trial has compared these regimens.

Patients And Methods: PRODIGE 62-OESIRI is a multicenter, open-label, randomized phase II trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of nanoliposomal irinotecan (Nal-IRI) plus 5FU versus paclitaxel as second-line CT in mESCC. The primary endpoint was to achieve overall survival (OS) of 60 % at 9 months.

Introduction: Naringenin (Nar), a common flavanone abundant in citrus fruits and tomatoes, is common in diets. Although Nar can alleviate intestinal ischemia/reperfusion injury (IRI), the exact anti-inflammatory mechanisms are unclear and require further study.

Methods: In this study, we employed a comprehensive research strategy that integrated network pharmacology analysis with both and experimental validations to systematically elucidate Nar's anti-inflammatory mechanisms in intestinal IRI.

Purpose: Saikosaponin-d (SSD), a bioactive triterpenoid saponin derived from Bupleurum species (a traditional Chinese medicine), is recognized for its gastrointestinal protective properties. This study investigates the therapeutic potential and mechanisms of SSD against irinotecan (IRI)-induced intestinal mucositis.

Methods: Using a CT26 colorectal cancer Syngeneic mouse model (BALB/c mice), we evaluated the synergistic antitumor efficacy of SSD combined with IRI.
