Effect of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) blockade on endotoxemia in rats.
To study the clinical significance of the decrease of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) in stress and shock, GR was blocked about 80% by mifepristone (RU38486), and the effects of the blockade on the pathological changes of endotoxemia were studied in rats. The results revealed that GR blockade may exacerbate the pathological and pathophysiological changes of endotoxemia: (1) the more rapid drop in arterial blood pressure, (2) the more severe pathological changes involving multiple organs, especially the lung and small intestine, (3) the increase of leukocyte adherence in venules and more pronounced rheological changes in the mesenteric microcirculation, and (4) the striking elevation of serum acid phosphatase (ACP), phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity, and lipoperoxide (LPO). The changes of serum ACP, PLA2, and LPO in the rats with 80% GR blockade were more marked than in those with 50% GR blockade. Based on these findings, we propose that the decrease in GR during stress and shock might be a contributing factor in the pathogenesis of shock and multiple organ failure (MOF). The possible mechanisms of the above noted findings are discussed.
