[An experimental study on injury of intestinal immuno-barrier in rat after scald].
A dynamic observation on injury of intestinal immuno-barrier in scalded rat was performed to investigate the relationship between the injury of intestinal immuno-barrier and bacterial translocation. After 40% TBSA third degree scald, a decrease of IgA in intestinal content and the number of CD3+ and CD4+ T lymphocyte, and reduction of IgA coat rate of intestinal bacteria were observed. At the same time, an increase in the incidence of bacterial translocation was detected. The results indicated that intestinal immuno-barrier was damaged and its protective function was weakened after an extensive thermal injury, and it suggested that the injury of intestinal immuno-barrier might play an important role on the development of postburn bacterial translocation and postburn sepsis.
