Effect of deferoxamine on late deaths following CPR in rats.

چکیده
The iron-chelating agent deferoxamine was studied in an animal model as postresuscitation therapy to prevent late deaths and brain damage following total circulatory arrest and resuscitation. Cardiorespiratory arrest was induced by injection of cold, 1% KCl into the left ventricles of ketamine-anesthetized rats pretreated with succinylcholine, and by discontinuation of positive pressure ventilation. CPR was begun after six minutes, and animals with return of spontaneous circulation were entered into the study. Within five minutes after return of spontaneous circulation, treated animals received deferoxamine (50 mg/kg, IV). At ten days, 16 of 25 (64%) of treated animals had survived without neurologic deficit, compared to nine of 25 (36%) of controls (chi square = 3.92, P less than .05). Chelation of intracellular iron by deferoxamine may have prevented free-radical-mediated reactions that led to late deaths in control animals.

This study examined the effect of carbon dioxide, lidoflazine and deferoxamine therapy upon the 10-day survival incidence and subsequent neurologic function of rats subjected to 7 min of cardiorespiratory arrest with resuscitation. Cardiac arrest (asystole) was induced at time zero by injection of cold, 1% KCl into the left ventricle of ketamine-anesthetized rats pretreated with succinylcholine...

Abstract Background: Iron overload is a clinical consequence of repeated blood transfusions and causes significant organ damage, morbidity, and mortality in the absence of proper treatment. The primary targets of Iron chelators used for treating transfusional Iron overload are the prevention of Iron ingress into tissues and its intracellular scavenging. The present study was aimed at elucid...

Background: Iron is an essential mineral for normal cellular physiology but its overload can lead to cell injury. For many years, deferoxamine injection has been used as an iron chelator for treatment of iron overload. The aim of this study is to compare oral deferoxamine, activated charcoal, and vitamin C, as an absorbent factor of Fe, in changing the serum level of iron in iron overload r...

Severe physical activity leads to a sharp increase in free radicals, an oxidative stress, inflammation, and tissue damage. Resveratrol as one of the antioxidants can be effective in preventing the effects of oxidative stress. Therefore, the present study was aimed to evaluate the effect of trans-resveratrol supplementation and training exercise on inflammation-related factors. Sixty-four ...
