To uncover the contribution of the diversity of the genetic backgrounds to the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic shock, we employed male Sprague-Dawley rats to establish a controlled 2.5 ml/100 g total body weight fixed-volume hemorrhagic shock and left lobular hepatectomy model. RNA was isolated from the liver samples taken from the rats (survival group: rats survived over 24 h after shock; and dead group: rats died within 1 h after shock, n = 3 per group), and subjected to microarray using the illumina(TM) chips for rat cDNA (27,342 genes, >700,000 probes). The results demonstrated that the rats had about 50% survival rate and 100 genes were identified differentially expressed in the two groups. Of these genes, 47 genes were up-regulated and 53 genes down-regulated. Real-time PCR confirmed the differential expression for Aldh1a1, Aldh1a7, Aoc3, Cyp26al, Hdc and Ephx2 genes. Pathway analysis revealed that these genes are involved in circadian rhythm, beta-Alanine metabolism, histidine metabolism, biosynthesis of unsaturated fatty acids, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, vitamin B6 metabolism, as well as arginine and proline metabolism. Therefore, our study provided a global molecular view on the contribution of genetic backgrounds to the response to hemorrhagic shock.
