이 실험은 복강 유착 방지효과를 나타내는 Poloxamer/Sodium Alginate (PX/SA) 혼합물의 최소용량과 주요기 관의 독성 여부에 대해 알아보기 위해 실시하였다. 건강한 잡종성견 25마리를 음성대조군 (무처치), 양성대조군 (2% carboxymethyl chitosan 용액 처치), 실험군 1 (PX/SA 혼합물 0.25 ml 처치), 실험군 2 (PX/SA 혼합물 0.5 ml 처치), 실험군 3 (PX/SA 혼합물 1.0 ml 처치) 으로 나누고 각 군당 5마리씩 배치하였다. 혈액학 검사 (백혈구,섬유소원)와 혈액화학 검사(AST, ALT, ALP, BUN, Creatinine)를 위해 정맥에서 혈액을 채취하였다. 유착방지효과를 알아보기 위해 돌창자에 찰과상을 일으켜 carboxymethyl chitosan 용액, PX/SA 혼합물을 처치하는 장막 찰과 모델을 이용하였다. 유착부위의 유착강도는 장력측정기를 이용하여 측정하였다. 조직검사를 위해 각 군의 모든 개로부터 간과 신장 조직을 채취하였다. PX/SA혼합물을 처치한 실험군이 음성 대조군보다 유착발생 빈도와 유착강도 모두 낮게 측정되었다. 실험군 간의 비교에서 실험군 2에서 유착강도가 유의적으로 감소하였다. AST, ALT, ALP, BUN, Creatinine 은 대조군과 실험군 사이 유의적 차이가 발견되지 않았으며, 모든 군에서 얻어진 조직 표본에서도 군간 유의적 차이를 보이지 않았다. 본 실험의 결과, PX/SA 혼합물 0.5 ml는 복강 유착 형성을 효과적으로 감소시켰으며, 물질이며, 혈액 및 주요 장기에 대한 독성도 없는 것으로 사료된다
This study was performed to determine the minimum dose of Poloxamer/Sodium alginate (PX/SA) mixture on preventing intraperitoneal adhesions to evaluate organ toxicity. Twenty five healthy adult mongrel dogs (weighing 4.68${pm}$1.67 kg) were divided into five experimental groups composed of five dogs respectively; negative control group (NC, non-treated), positive control group (PC, 2% carboxymethyl chitosan solution treated), and experiment 1 group (E1, 0.25 ml PX/SA mixture of abraded area), experiment 2 group (E2, 0.5 ml PX/SA mixture of abraded area), experiment 3 group (E3, 1.0 ml PX/SA mixture of abraded area). Venous blood specimens were collected from all experimental animals for hematologic and biochemical analysis: WBC, fibrinogen, AST, ALT, ALP, BUN and creatinine. The anti-adhesion effect was evaluated using a serosa abrasion model. The denuded ileum was coated with PX/SA mixture, carboxymethyl chitosan solution or neither. The tensile strength of the adhesion site was evaluated with a tensiometer. For histopathological examination, tissue samples of the liver and kidney were collected from all dogs. According to the results, the frequency and tensile strength values for adhesion separation in PX/SA group were significantly lower than those in negative control group (p < 0.05). In E2 group, the tensile strength was significantly decreased in consideration of PX/SA dose. The values of AST, ALT, ALP, BUN and creatinine of the control and the experimental groups showed no statistical differences. No obvious microscopic differences were noted among tissue sections obtained from all groups. The results suggest that PX/SA mixture may be effective on reducing peritoneal adhesion formation in dog and that 0.5 ml PX/SA mixture of abraded area is most effective dose. Moreover, PX/SA mixture was considered not to have toxicity for the liver and the kidney.
