Objective and design: To evaluate the beneficial effects of exogenous NO and its levels of action in a model of SIRS/Bacterial Translocation (BT) induced by two sequential insults. Material or subjects: Eighty-six Wistar rats were submitted to different treatments and their tissue and blood samples were accessed at the end of the experiment. Treatment: Nitric Oxide was compared to Gentamicin as the tested guideline for our study. Methods: Dacron graft implantation (first insult) and subsequent administration of Zymosan A (R) (second insult) were performed in Wistar rats. The animals were divided into 6 groups: I) No manipulation (BASAL); II) Laparotomy (L) + mineral Oil (SHAM); III) L + Graft-Zymosan (GZ) (CONTROL); IV) L + GZ + Antibiotic (A) (ASSAY I); V) L + GZ + NO (ASSAY II) and VI) L + GZ + A + NO (ASSAY III). Determinations: Survival, Bacterial Translocation, myeloperoxidase (MPO), Cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, IFN-gamma), Oxygen Free Radical (OFR) SOA and detoxifying enzymes (SOD, Superoxide Dismutase, CAT, Catalase and GPX, Glutathione Peroxidase), Cell Adhesion Molecules, CAMS (ICAM-1, VCAM-1 and PECAM-1) and Nuclear Transcription Factor, NF kappa B. Results: The model established induced a mortality rate of 20% and generated BT in all samples. It also significantly increased all variables, with P < 0.001 for MPO and all Cytokines; P < 0.01 for all OFR, and P < 0.05 for CAMS and for NF kappa B. Treatment with A reduced mortality to 0%, significantly decreased BT, MPO, Cytokines and OFR (P < 0.05), but did not reduce CAMS or NF kappa B. NO, either alone or associated, reduced mortality to 0% and abolished BT, significantly decreasing nearly all the variables studied (P < 0.001 for MPO and all Cytokines; P < 0.01 for OFR, and P < 0.05 for CAMS and for NF kappa B). Conclusions: The exogenous administration of NO before the two sequential insults prevented BT and controlled SIRS peripherally and at both cellular and transcriptional level in a lasting manner. In contrast, antibiotic treatment only exerted its action at peripheral level. The association of both treatments did not provide any important advantages.
