摘要

Shock is a condition in which tissues are not sufficiently oxygenated (hypoxic), and it can result in death. In fact, it has been found that increasing oxygen consumption corresponds to an increased survival rate in shock. Thus, increasing oxygen consumption should be a useful therapy, and this was investigated using a rat model of hemorrhagic shock.;Some recent studies indicate that the rate of tissue oxygen consumption is controlled by the rate of diffusion of oxygen from the red blood cells to the mitochondria in certain cases. If this is also true for shock, increasing the diffusion of oxygen should have a beneficial effect. For example enhancing the diffusivity of oxygen through plasma might increase the flux of oxygen from blood cells to the mitochondria and reduce the risk of hypoxia. In vitro experiments show an increase of 25% in the diffusivity of oxygen through plasma when the carotenoid compound crocetin is added. Thus, crocetin was investigated as a treatment for hemorrhagic shock.;These experiments showed that there were significant increases in the oxygen consumption and survival of hemorrhaged rats treated with crocetin. Magnetic resonance spectroscopy of the gracilis muscle indicate that the metabolic energy levels return to normal in hemorrhaged animals treated with crocetin, a strong indication that sufficient oxygen supply to this tissue (and presumably others) has been restored. Magnetic resonance imaging experiments indicated that there was little, if any, effect of crocetin on blood flow in large vessels. Thus, it is suggested that crocetin aids in the restoration of normal oxygen supply to tissues after hemorrhagic shock, by increasing the diffusivity of oxygen, and increasing the chances of survival.
