Open Access Abstract Introduction Vascular hyporeactivity is an important problem associated with sepsis. Although the mechanism involves inflammatory pathway activation specific therapeutic approaches have not been defined. Glutamine Gln has been shown to provide some anti-inflammatory effects and improve outcomes in sepsis. Here we tested the hypothesis that Gln could reduce Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide LPS -induced vascular hyporeactivity and evaluated the role of heatshock protein 70 HSP70 induction in this process. Methods Twenty-four male Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into control LPS shock and alanyl-Gln dipeptide LPS shock Ala-Gln LPS groups. Six hours after administration of LPS phenylephrine PE to approximately ựg kg was applied intravenously to all groups and the percentage increase in mean arterial pressure MAP was detected in the respective groups. The concentration-response curve of PE was obtained in tension experiments and the average values of PE maximum efficacy Emax and median effective
