This study was undertaken to determine whether synthetic proteinase inhibitors--nafamostat mesilate (FUT-175) and gabexate mesilate (FOY) have any influence on multiorgan oxidant-antioxidant balance in acute haemorrhagic pancreatitis induced in Wistar rats using a retrograde intraductal injection of 5% Na-taurocholate. Rats were treated with FUT-175 25 x 10(-3) g.kg-1.h-1) or FOY (2.5 x 10(-3) g.kg-1.h-1) and sacrificed at 3 h. Malondialdehyde and sulfhydryl groups concentration, as an index of oxidative stress, we measured in pancreatic, lung and liver tissue. In rats with acute pancreatitis treated with these proteinase inhibitors, oxidative stress expressed by malondialdehyde elevation and sulfhydryl groups depletion, was markedly diminished. It was observed in the pancreas and lung, and to a lesser extent in the liver. These effects of FUT-175 or FOY treatment, at least in part, may account for recently postulated favorable systemic effects of such a medication.
