Description
Summary:•MMP and TIMP panels increased significantly at 1–48h after LPS administration.•Serum MMPs and TIMPs are involved in the pathophysiology of endotoxemia, and are correlated with the acute phase reaction (Serum CRP) and multi-organ failure (muscle and hepatorenal).•Intravenous choline treatment reduced changes in serum MMPs and TIMPs in dogs with endotoxemia. The aim of the present study was to investigate effects of intravenous (i.v.) choline treatment on serum matrix metalloproteinases (MMP), MMP tissue inhibitors (TIMP) and immunoglobulins (Igs), and to determine if there were relations between serum MMPs/TIMPs and C-reactive protein (CRP) (as a marker of the acute phase response), immunoglobulin G and M (IgG and IgM) (as a maker of the Ig responses) and markers of organ damage such as muscular damage (creatine phosphokinase, [CPK]), liver damage (alanine aminotransferase [ALT]) and renal dysfunction (blood urea nitrogen [BUN] and creatinine, [Cr]) in dogs with endotoxemia. Healthy dogs (n=24) were randomized to Saline, Choline (C), Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and LPS+C groups and received 0.9% NaCl (5mL/i.v.), choline chloride (20mg/kg/i.v.), LPS (0.02mg/kg/i.v.) and LPS (0.02mg/kg/i.v.) plus choline chloride (20mg/kg/i.v.), respectively. Serum MMPs and TIMPs concentrations were analyzed by commercial ELISA kits. MMP and TIMP increased at 1–48h (P
