PURPOSE: To evaluate the effect of remote ischemic preconditioning (IPC-R) in the fetal small bowel transplantation model. METHODS: Two groups were constituted: The Isogenic transplant (ISO, C57BL/6 mice, n=24) and the allogenic transplant (ALO, BALB/c mice, n=24). In each group, the animals were distributed with and without IPC-R. It was obtained the following subgroups: Tx, IPC-R, Fk, IPC-Fk, in both strains. Intestinal grafts were stained with hematoxylin and eosin and immunohistochemically. RESULTS: The graft development evaluation in ISO group showed that IPC-R reduced the development compared with ISO-Tx (5.2+/-0.4 vs 9.0+/-0.8) and IPC-R-Fk increased the graft development compared with IPC-R (11.2+/-0.7 and 10.2+/-0.8). In ALO group, IPC-Fk increased the development compared with ALO-Tx and ALO with IPC-R (6.0+/-0.8, 9.0+/-1.2, 0.0+/-0.0, 0.5+/-0.3). The PCNA expression was increased in ISO group treated with Fk and IPC-R compared to other groups (12.2+/-0.8 vs Tx: 8.8+/-0.9, IPC-R: 8.0+/-0.4 and Fk: 9.0+/-0.6). The graft rejection was lower in groups treated with IPC-R (-18%), Fk (-68%) or both (-61%) compared with ALO-Tx. CONCLUSION: Remote ischemic preconditioning showed benefic effect even associate with Tacrolimus on the development and acute rejection of the fetal small bowel graft in the Isogenic and Allogenic transplants.
