BACKGROUND: The protective effects of magnesium sulfate against ischemia-reperfusion injury of the small intestine in Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats have been confirmed in our previous research. However, its exact mechanism is unclear. This study was to evaluate the role of PI3K/Akt signal pathway in the protective effect of magnesium sulfate against ischemia-reperfusion injury of the small intestine in SD rats. METHODS: Rat model of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury was used. The SD rats were divided into four groups randomly: sham operation group, ischemia-reperfusion group, magnesium sulfate group and magnesium sulfate plus LY294002 (an inhibitor of PI3K) group. The pathological changes of intestinal mucosa were examined; the activity of diamine oxidase (DAO) in plasma, the plasma contents of malondialdehyde (MDA), and apoptosis rate of the intestinal mucosal cells were determined and compared. The expression of p-Akt was detected by Western blotting. RESULTS: There were more evident pathological changes of the intestinal mucosa (higher Chiu's score, P < 0.05), enhanced DAO activity (P < 0.05), elevated contents of MDA (P < 0.05), higher apoptosis rate (P < 0.05), and lower level of p-Akt (P < 0.05) in the ischemia-reperfusion group compared with the sham operation group. There were less evident pathological changes of the intestinal mucosa (lower Chiu's score, P < 0.05), lower DAO activity (P < 0.05), lower contents of MDA (P < 0.05), and lower apoptosis rate (P < 0.05), but higher level of p-Akt (P < 0.05) in the magnesium sulfate group compared with the ischemia-reperfusion group. There were more evident pathological changes of the intestinal mucosa (higher Chiu's score, P < 0.05), higher contents of MDA (P < 0.05), higher DAO activity (P < 0.05) and higher apoptosis rate (P < 0.05), and lower level of p-Akt (P < 0.05) in the magnesium sulfate plus LY294002 group compared with the magnesium sulfate group. CONCLUSIONS: Activation of PI3K/Akt signal pathway results in the reduction of cell apoptosis, which likely accounts for the protective effect of magnesium sulfate against intestinal ischemia-reperfusion injury.
