Effects of Bromelain on Oxidative Stress and Lung Tissue Histopathology in an Experimental Rat Sepsis Model

Abstract

Sepsis is an inflammatory syndrome that targets the lung tissue. Bromelain (BRO) is an enzyme complex known for its anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, the protective effect of BRO on lung injury due to sepsis induced by cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) in Sprague-Dawley rats was investigated by biochemical and histopathological methods. Forty Sprague dawley rats were randomly divided into five groups as control, CLP, BRO, CLP+BRO 50 and CLP+BRO 100. In the study, after oral administration of 50 and 100 mg/kg BRO (total of 7 applications for 7 days) to rats, laparotomy and CLP were performed. The data showed that due to its antioxidant properties, BRO decreased CLP-induced myeloperoxidase (MPO) and lipid peroxidation (MDA) (p <0,001), increased glutathione (GSH) levels, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) activities (p <0,001). Additionally, CLP-induced lung histological changes were reduced with BRO supplementation. The results showed that BRO treatment has an antioxidant, anti-inflammatory effect on CLP-induced lung toxicity and helps preserve lung tissue architecture owing to its regulatory effect.
