摘　　要：The changes of the levels of LTC4, PGI2 and TXA2 in the liver tissue in SD rats with GaIN/LPS-induced acute liver injury was studied with radioimmunoassay (RIA). As a result,12h after the administration of GaIN/LPS, serum AST (398±37u), ALT (565 ±43u) increased (P<0.001 ) and the concentration of TXA2 (12188±588pg/g· w· wt) in liver tissue increased sigiuficantly(p<0.001), while the content of LTC4 (9713± 3557ng/g·w·wt ) and PGI2 (1748±560 pg/g· w·wt) in liver tissue were not obviously changed(p>0.05) and the inflammatory changes of the pathological findings were observed. The improvement of serum ALT (300±168u)(p< 0.05) and AST(273±424 u) (P<0. 05) and histopathological damage was observed after the administration of diethylcarbamazine (DEC), a LTA4 synthesis inhibitor, the liver TXA2(12740±699) concentration significantly increased (P<0. 001), while the levels of LTC4 (8179±1653) and PGI2 (2320±630) were not obviously changed. Serum ALT (536±74u) and AST (416± 41u)(P> 0. 05) levels and histopathology did not change with administration of indomethacin, a cyclooxygenase inhibitor, but the liver LTC4 (12166±13027) contents increased (P<0.05 ) and TXA2 (1868±791) reduced significantly (P<0. 001). The present study suggests that arachidonic acid metabolism in rats with acute liver injury are significantly abnormal. Leukotrienes and thromboxane are important inflammatory mediators in the liver injury.The changes of the levels of LTC4, PGI2 and TXA2 in the liver tissue in SD rats with GaIN/LPS-induced acute liver injury was studied with radioimmunoassay (RIA).
