Abstract

Effect of mesodiencephalic modulation on small intestinal mucosa was studied in rats subjected to massive blood loss. Massive blood loss induced structural changes in intestinal epitheliocytes typical of tissue hypoxia: intraintestinal edema, mitochondrial alterations, and microcirculation disturbances. A single session of mesodiencephalic stimulation carried out 60 min after massive blood loss produced a pronounced adaptive effect, restored disturbed structure of the intestinal villi, and induced compensatory hypertrophy of the mitochondria. This suggests that mesodiencephalic modulation promotes normalization of intracellular energy metabolism, improves the absorption capacity of bordered enterocytes, and restores the disturbed intestinal barrier.
