Özet
Background:Acute mesenteric ischemia (AMI) is an intestinal vascular disease with high mortality. Clinical diagnosis of acute mesenteric ischemia is difficult. Adipose tissue is an important mediator of metabolism and inflammation.Omentin is produced by visceral adipose tissue and decreased serum levels of omentin are associated with poor metabolic outcomes. We aimed to investigate whether serum omentin level predicts early diagnosis of AMI before development of transmural ischemia. Methods: Twenty-four Sprague Dawley rats weighted about 200-250 gr grouped in 3 experimental groups as sham, transient ischemia and permanent ischemia. Each group consisted of 8 rats. Blood samples were evaluated to determine serum urea, creatinine, omentin and C-reactive protein (CRP) levels. A blinded histological examination performed with the same histologist for hemotoxileneosine painted ileal tissue samples. Results: Mean serum omentin level in sham group (27.5+/-4.67) was significantly elevated compared to rats in Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) group (10.9+/-9.01).The difference reached the statistical significance (p=0.004). Serum omentin levels were not correlated to urea, creatinine or CRPlevels. Conclusion:Omentin levels may be a biochemical indicator to detect AMI. However, further human studies are needed (Tab. 3, Fig. 3, Ref 34).
