Dynamics of Cytokine Profile Indicators Changes in Animals with Acute Generalized Peritonitis on the Background of Diabetes Mellitus.

In acute peritonitis, any surgical intervention leads to impaired immune protection with the development of postoperative purulent-septic complications, which increases several times the likelihood of death, especially in people with secondary immunodeficiency as a consequence diabetes mellitus. We aimed to study the dynamics of pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokine content in rat serum under experimental acute generalized peritonitis on the background of diabetes mellitus. Fifty-six white rats were used for the study. The determination of the serum cytokine profile was performed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. When comparing the levels of interleukins between the study groups, a statistically significant increase in the level of proinflammatory cytokines was found in the group of diabetic animals during all experimental periods. In particular, the concentration of interleukin - 1β increased significantly by 94% on day 1 of observation, by 115% on day 3, and by 121% on day 7 compared to the control group. Similarly, a significant increase in TNF-α levels was observed in animals with diabetes. In this group, the most significant increase in the level of TNF-α was recorded on the seventh day of the experiment, and it increased by 3.4 times. Animals with acute peritonitis on the background of diabetes had a significantly increased concentration of anti-inflammatory cytokines in the serum of all study groups, which confirms their involvement in the pathogenesis of the disease under study.
