Abstract
Lung transplantation remains the only curative treatment for end stage pulmonary disease. Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is a major contributor to primary allograft dysfunction and donor organ non-utilization. The alveolar macrophage is a key inflammatory mediator in IRI. Ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) has been investigated to rehabilitate lungs prior to transplant but has failed to provide significant improvements after IRI. We hypothesized that liquid ventilation could be utilized for ex vivo lung reconditioning in a rat IRI model. We compared EVLP to liquid ventilation in an isolated ex vivo rat lung with an aqueous ventilant using quantitative physiologic and immunologic parameters. We observed improved physiologic parameters and mechanical clearance of alveolar macrophages and cytokines halting the propagation of the inflammatory response in IRI. While the wide applicability to large animal or human transplantation have yet to be explored, these findings represent a method for lung reconditioning in the setting of significant IRI that could widen the lung organ donation pool and limit morbidity and mortality associated with ischemia induced primary graft dysfunction.

Cardiopulmonary bypass increases endothelial dysfunction after pulmonary ischaemia-reperfusion in an animal model. Eur J Cardiothorac Surg 2021; 59:1037-1047. [PMID: 33276375 DOI: 10.1093/ejcts/ezaa412] [Citation(s) in RCA: 3] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/12/2020] [Revised: 10/06/2020] [Accepted: 10/18/2020] [Indexed: 11/14/2022] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVES Endothelial dysfunction during ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) is a major cause of primary graft dysfunction during lung transplantation. The routine use of cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) during lung transplantation remains controversial. However, the contribution of CPB to pulmonary endothelial dysfunction remains unclear. The objective was to investigate the impact of CPB on endothelial dysfunction in a lung IR rat model. METHODS Rats were allocated to 4 groups: (i) Sham, (ii) IR, (iii) CPB and (iv) IR-CPB. The primary outcome was the study of pulmonary vascular reactivity by wire myograph. We also assessed glycocalyx degradation by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and electron microscopy and both systemic and pulmonary inflammation by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemistry. Rats were exposed to 45 min of CPB and IR. We used a CPB model allowing femoro-femoral support with left pulmonary hilum ischaemia for IR. RESULTS Pulmonary endothelium-dependent relaxation to acetylcholine was markedly reduced in the IR-CPB group (10.7 ± 9.1%) compared to the IR group (50.5 ± 5.2%, P < 0.001), the CPB group (54.1 ± 4.7%, P < 0.001) and the sham group (80.8 ± 6.7%, P < 0.001), suggesting that the association of pulmonary IR and CPB increases endothelial dysfunction. In IR-CPB, IR and CPB groups, vasorelaxation was completely abolished when inhibiting nitric oxide synthase, suggesting that this relaxation process was mainly mediated by nitric oxide. We observed higher syndecan-1 plasma levels in the IR-CPB group in comparison with the other groups, reflecting an increased degradation of glycocalyx. We also observed higher systemic inflammation in the IR-CPB group as shown by the increased plasma levels of IL-1β, IL-10. CONCLUSIONS CPB significantly increased the IR-mediated effects on pulmonary endothelial dysfunction. Therefore, the use of CPB during lung transplantation could be deleterious, by increasing endothelial dysfunction.

J Surg Res 2020; 260:325-344.

Abstract
Case reports from as early as the 1970s have shown that intravenous injection of even a small dose of volatile anesthetics result in fatal lung injury. Direct contact between volatile anesthetics and pulmonary vasculature triggers chemical damage in the vessel walls. A wide variety of factors are involved in lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI), such as pulmonary endothelial cells, alveolar epithelial cells, alveolar macrophages, neutrophils, mast cells, platelets, proinflammatory cytokines, and surfactant. With a constellation of factors involved, the assessment of the protective effect of volatile anesthetics in LIRI is difficult. Multiple animal studies have reported that with regards to LIRI, sevoflurane demonstrates an anti-inflammatory effect in immunocompetent cells and an anti-apoptotic effect on lung tissue. Scattered studies have dismissed a protective effect of desflurane against LIRI. While a single-center randomized controlled trial (RCT) found that volatile anesthetics including desflurane demonstrated a lung-protective effect in thoracic surgery, a multicenter RCT did not demonstrate a lung-protective effect of desflurane. LIRI is common in lung transplantation. One study, although limited due to its small sample size, found that the use of volatile anesthetics in organ procurement surgery involving "death by neurologic criteria" donors did not improve lung graft survival. Future studies on the protective effect of volatile anesthetics against LIRI must examine not only the mechanism of the protective effect but also differences in the effects of different types of volatile anesthetics, their optimal dosage, and the appropriateness of their use in the event of marked alveolar capillary barrier damage.

Reduced-flow ex vivo lung perfusion to rehabilitate lungs donated after circulatory death. J Heart Lung Transplant 2019; 39:74-82. [PMID: 31761511 DOI: 10.1016/j.healun.2019.09.009] [Citation(s) in RCA: 7] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.4] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/29/2019] [Revised: 09/04/2019] [Accepted: 09/05/2019] [Indexed: 12/13/2022] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Current ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP) protocols aim to achieve perfusion flows of 40% of cardiac output or more. We hypothesized that a lower target flow rate during EVLP would improve graft function and decrease inflammation of donation after circulatory death (DCD) lungs. METHODS A porcine DCD and EVLP model was utilized. Two groups (n = 4 per group) of DCD lungs were randomized to target EVLP flows of 40% (high-flow) or 20% (low-flow) predicted cardiac output based on 100 ml/min/kg. At the completion of 4 hours of normothermic EVLP using Steen solution, left lung transplantation was performed, and lungs were monitored during 4 hours of reperfusion. RESULTS After transplant, left lung-specific pulmonary vein partial pressure of oxygen was significantly higher in the low-flow group at 3 and 4 hours of reperfusion (3-hour: 496.0 ± 87.7 mm Hg vs. 252.7 ± 166.0 mm Hg, p = 0.017; 4-hour: 429.7 ± 93.6 mm Hg vs. 231.5 ± 178 mm Hg, p = 0.048). Compliance was significantly improved at 1 hour of reperfusion (20.8 ± 9.4 ml/cm H2O vs. 10.2 ± 3.5 ml/cm H2O, p = 0.022) and throughout all subsequent time points in the low-flow group. After reperfusion, lung wet-to-dry weight ratio (7.1 ± 0.7 vs. 8.8 ± 1.1, p = 0.040) and interleukin-1β expression (927 ± 300 pg/ng protein vs. 2,070 ± 874 pg/ng protein, p = 0.048) were significantly reduced in the low-flow group. CONCLUSIONS EVLP of DCD lungs with low-flow targets of 20% predicted cardiac output improves lung function, reduces edema, and attenuates inflammation after transplant. Therefore, EVLP for lung rehabilitation should use reduced flow rates of 20% predicted cardiac output.

Abstract
Background Hypoxia preconditioning has been proven to be an effective method to enhance the therapeutic action of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs). However, the beneficial effects of hypoxic MSCs in ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) lung injury have yet to be investigated. In this study, we hypothesized that the administration of hypoxic MSCs would have a positive therapeutic impact on I/R lung injury at molecular, cellular, and functional levels. Methods I/R lung injury was induced in isolated and perfused rat lungs. Hypoxic MSCs were administered in perfusate at a low (2.5×105 cells) and high (1×106 cells) dose. Rats ventilated with a low tidal volume of 6 ml/kg served as controls. Hemodynamics, lung injury indices, inflammatory responses and activation of apoptotic pathways were determined. Results I/R induced permeability pulmonary edema with capillary leakage and increased levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS), pro-inflammatory cytokines, adhesion molecules, cytosolic cytochrome C, and activated MAPK, NF-κB, and apoptotic pathways. The administration of a low dose of hypoxic MSCs effectively attenuated I/R pathologic lung injury score by inhibiting inflammatory responses associated with the generation of ROS and anti-apoptosis effect, however this effect was not observed with a high dose of hypoxic MSCs. Mechanistically, a low dose of hypoxic MSCs down-regulated P38 MAPK and NF-κB signaling but upregulated glutathione, prostaglandin E2, IL-10, mitochondrial cytochrome C and Bcl-2. MSCs infused at a low dose migrated into interstitial and alveolar spaces and bronchial trees, while MSCs infused at a high dose aggregated in the microcirculation and induced pulmonary embolism. Conclusions Hypoxic MSCs can quickly migrate into extravascular lung tissue and adhere to other inflammatory or structure cells and attenuate I/R lung injury through anti-oxidant, anti-inflammatory and anti-apoptotic mechanisms. However, the dose of MSCs needs to be optimized to prevent pulmonary embolism and thrombosis.

Abstract
The role of differential cytology patterns in peripheral blood and bronchoalveolar lavage samples is increasingly investigated as a potential adjunct to diagnose acute and chronic allograft dysfunction after lung transplantation. While these profiles might facilitate the diagnosis of acute cellular rejection, low sensitivity and specificity of these patterns limit direct translation in a clinical setting. In this context, the identification of other biomarkers is needed. This review article gives an overview of cytokine profiles of plasma and bronchoalveolar lavage samples during acute cellular rejection. The value of these cytokines in supporting the diagnosis of acute cellular rejection is discussed. Current findings on the topic are highlighted and experimental settings for future research projects are identified.

Abstract
Background Extended criteria donor lungs deemed unsuitable for immediate transplantation can be reconditioned using ex vivo lung perfusion (EVLP). Objective identification of which donor lungs can be successfully reconditioned and will function well post-operatively has not been established. This study assessed the predictive value of markers of inflammation and tissue injury in donor lungs undergoing EVLP as part of the DEVELOP-UK study. Methods Longitudinal samples of perfusate, bronchoalveolar lavage, and tissue from 42 human donor lungs undergoing clinical EVLP assessments were analyzed for markers of inflammation and tissue injury. Levels were compared according to EVLP success and post-transplant outcomes. Neutrophil adhesion to human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs) conditioned with perfusates from EVLP assessments was investigated on a microfluidic platform. Results The most effective markers to differentiate between in-hospital survival and non-survival post-transplant were perfusate interleukin (IL)-1β (area under the curve = 1.00, p = 0.002) and tumor necrosis factor-α (area under the curve = 0.95, p = 0.006) after 30 minutes of EVLP. IL-1β levels in perfusate correlated with upregulation of intracellular adhesion molecule-1 in donor lung vasculature (R2 = 0.68, p < 0.001) and to a lesser degree upregulation of intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (R2 = 0.30, p = 0.001) and E-selectin (R2 = 0.29, p = 0.001) in conditioned HPMECs and neutrophil adhesion to conditioned HPMECs (R2 = 0.33, p < 0.001). Neutralization of IL-1β in perfusate effectively inhibited neutrophil adhesion to conditioned HPMECs (91% reduction, p = 0.002). Conclusions Donor lungs develop a detectable and discriminatory pro-inflammatory signature in perfusate during EVLP. Blocking the IL-1β pathway during EVLP may reduce endothelial activation and subsequent neutrophil adhesion on reperfusion; this requires further investigation in vivo.

Abstract
Rationale Primary graft dysfunction in lung transplant recipients derives from the initial, largely leukocyte-dependent, ischaemia-reperfusion injury. Intravascular lung-marginated monocytes have been shown to play key roles in experimental acute lung injury, but their contribution to lung ischaemia-reperfusion injury post transplantation is unknown. Objective To define the role of donor intravascular monocytes in lung transplant-related acute lung injury and primary graft dysfunction. Methods Isolated perfused C57BL/6 murine lungs were subjected to warm ischaemia (2 hours) and reperfusion (2 hours) under normoxic conditions. Monocyte retention, activation phenotype and the effects of their depletion by intravenous clodronate-liposome treatment on lung inflammation and injury were determined. In human donor lung transplant samples, the presence and activation phenotype of monocytic cells (low side scatter, 27E10+, CD14+, HLA-DR+, CCR2+) were evaluated by flow cytometry and compared with post-implantation lung function. Results In mouse lungs following ischaemia-reperfusion, substantial numbers of lung-marginated monocytes remained within the pulmonary microvasculature, with reduced L-selectin and increased CD86 expression indicating their activation. Monocyte depletion resulted in reductions in lung wet:dry ratios, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid protein, and perfusate levels of RAGE, MIP-2 and KC, while monocyte repletion resulted in a partial restoration of the injury. In human lungs, correlations were observed between pre-implantation donor monocyte numbers/their CD86 and TREM-1 expression and post-implantation lung dysfunction at 48 and 72 hours. Conclusions These results indicate that lung-marginated intravascular monocytes are retained as a ‘passenger’ leukocyte population during lung transplantation, and play a key role in the development of transplant-associated ischaemia-reperfusion injury.

Abstract
N-acetylcysteine (NAC) suppresses the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are implicated in ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). We thus hypothesised that NAC attenuates VILI. VILI was induced by mechanical ventilation with a tidal volume (Vt) of 15mlkg(-1) in isolated and perfused rat lung. NAC was administered in the perfusate prior to the onset of mechanical ventilation. A group ventilated with low Vt of 5mlkg(-1) served as control. Haemodynamics, lung injury indices, inflammatory responses and activation of apoptotic pathways were determined upon completion of the mechanical ventilation. There was an increase in lung permeability and lung weight gain after mechanical ventilation with high Vt, compared to low Vt. The levels of inflammatory cytokines including interleukin-1β (IL-1β), tumour necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) increased in lung lavage fluids; the concentrations of H(2)O(2) were higher in lung lavage fluids, and the expression of myeloperoxidase (MPO), JNK, P38, pAKT and caspase-3 in lung tissue was greater in the high Vt than in the low Vt group. The concentrations of glutathione (GSH) in lung tissue were higher in low Vt than those in high Vt. The administration of NAC increased GSH, attenuated ROS, cytokines, MPO, JNK, pAKT and caspase-3 and lung permeability associated with decreased activation of nuclear factor-κB. VILI is associated with inflammatory responses including the generation of ROS, cytokines and the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase cascade. The administration of NAC attenuates the inflammatory responses, apoptosis and VILI in the isolated, perfused rat lung model.

Abstract
Apocynin suppresses the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) that are implicated in ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) lung injury. We thus hypothesized that apocynin attenuates I/R. Furthermore, we explored the mechanisms by which apocynin may attenuate I/R. I/R was induced in an isolated and perfused rat lung model with ischemia for 1 h followed by reperfusion for 1 h. Apocynin was administered in the circulating perfusate at the onset of ischemia. Hemodynamics, lung injury indices, inflammatory responses, and activation of apoptotic pathways were determined. An increase in lung permeability and lung weight gain was noted after I/R. Peak airway pressure was increased, and pH of circulating perfusate was decreased. The adhesion molecule of neutrophil (CD31) in perfusate was upregulated. The levels of albumin, white blood cell count, and inflammatory cytokines including interleukin-1β, tumor necrosis factor-α, and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 increased in lung lavage fluid; the concentrations of carbonyl and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were greater in the circulating perfusate; and the expression of myeloperoxidase, JNK, P38, and caspase-3 in lung tissue was greater in the control group. Upregulation and activation of nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) in nuclei were found in I/R. The administration of apocynin attenuated these inflammatory responses and lung permeability associated with decreased activation of NF-κB. We conclude that I/R is associated with inflammatory responses including the generation of ROS, adhesion protein of neutrophil, cytokines, and the activation of mitogen-activated protein kinase and NF-κB cascade. The administration of apocynin attenuates the inflammatory responses and I/R in the isolated, perfused rat lung model.

Abstract
Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury remains one of the major complications after cardiac bypass surgery and lung transplantation. Due to its dual blood supply system and the availability of oxygen from alveolar ventilation, the pathogenetic mechanisms of ischemia-reperfusion injury in the lungs are more complicated than in other organs, where loss of blood flow automatically leads to hypoxia. In this review, an extensive overview is given of the molecular and cellular mechanisms that are involved in the pathogenesis of lung ischemia-reperfusion injury and the possible therapeutic strategies to reduce or prevent it. In addition, the roles of neutrophils, alveolar macrophages, cytokines, and chemokines, as well as the alterations in the cell-death related pathways, are described in detail.

Abstract
We hypothesised that combined therapy with macromolecules that seal endothelial damage [pentastarch (Penta)], an anti-inflammatory agent [dexamethasone (Dex)], and an agent that reabsorbs alveolar fluid [beta(2)-agonist or dibutyryl-cAMP (Bt(2)-cAMP)] would have additive ameliorating effects on ischaemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of the lung. We perfused one of the following solutions into isolated rat lungs in a closed circulating system, either prior to I/R injury (groups 1-5) or following 60 min of ischaemia (groups 6-10): (1) 0.9% normal saline (NS), (2) Penta, (3) Penta+Dex, (4) Penta+Bt(2)-cAMP, (5) Penta+beta(2)-agonist inhalation, (6) Penta+Dex, (7) Penta+Bt(2)-cAMP, (8) Penta+beta(2)-agonist inhalation, (9) Penta+Dex+Bt(2)-cAMP, or (10) Penta+Dex+beta(2)-agonist inhalation. Haemodynamics, lung weight gain (LWG), capillary filtration coefficient (K(fc)), cytokine mRNA levels, and lung pathology were assessed. Results showed that Dex, Bt(2)-cAMP, or beta(2)-agonist as an additive to Penta decreased K(fc) and LWG below values seen with Penta alone. Furthermore, LWG and K(fc) values in groups with three protective agents were lower than those in groups with two protective agents. Significantly lower levels of TNF-alpha and IL-1 mRNAs were observed in groups treated with Dex. Histopathological studies showed decreased injury profiles for all combined therapy groups. We conclude that the addition of Dex, Bt(2)-cAMP, or beta(2)-adrenergic agonist to Penta solution promoted attenuation of I/R injury. Furthermore, combination therapy with three protective agents (Penta+Dex+beta(2)-adrenergic agonist) caused the greatest attenuation of I/R.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Lungs donated after cardiac death (DCD) may significantly reduce current organ shortage. However, the warm ischemic period following circulatory arrest may enhance ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). We investigated the possible therapeutic effect of N-acetyl cysteine (NAC), a potent anti-oxidative agent on IRI in a porcine ex vivo lung reperfusion model. MATERIALS AND METHODS NAC (50 mg/kg) was nebulized to pigs (n = 6/group) prior to sacrifice (NAC-DCD). In DCD-NAC, animals received NAC 15 min after death. Control animals did not receive an aerosol (DCD). Interleukin (IL)-1beta, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, IL-8, lactate dehydrogenase activity and thiobarbituric acid reactive substances were measured and cells were counted in broncho-alveolar lavage from the right lung after a 3-h warm plus 1-h cold ischemic interval. RESULTS There were no differences in cells between groups, however cell death was lower in NAC-DCD (10.3 +/- 1.5%) and DCD-NAC (7.83 +/- 1.8%) compared to DCD (18.0 +/- 3.8%). IL-1beta levels (111.5 +/- 28.8 pg/mL and 92.2 +/- 51.0 pg/mL versus 250.3 +/- 56.6 pg/mL) and lactate dehydrogenase activity (1258.0 +/- 440.9 U/L and 1606.0 +/- 289.0 U/L versus 2848.0 +/- 760.9 U/L) were significantly lower in NAC-DCD and DCD-NAC compared with DCD, respectively. These postischemic inflammatory markers correlated with functional parameters upon reperfusion of the left lung, reported in a previous study. CONCLUSIONS Administration of NAC prior to or shortly after circulatory arrest results in a marked reduction of inflammation during the warm ischemic phase.

Abstract
Lung ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) injury plays an important role in many clinical issues. A series of mechanisms after I/R has been uncovered after numerous related studies. Organ preconditioning (PC) is a process whereby a brief antecedent event, such as transient ischemia, oxidative stress, temperature change, or drug administration, bestows on an organ an early or delayed tolerance to further insults by the same or different stressors. In this study, we want to uncover the optimal thermal PC patterns that cause maximal early or delayed protective effect on the subsequent pulmonary I/R with the use of miniature pig model. Twenty-eight 15- to 20-kg weight Lanyu miniature pigs are used and divided into four groups (seven sham operation control [NC], seven PC only [PC], seven I/R [I/R], and seven PC followed by I/R [PC + I/R]). The PC was performed with the animals being anesthetized and, using an alternative hyperthermic (40 degrees C) and normothermic moist air to ventilate their lungs for 15 min, respectively, for 2 cycles, followed by I/R, which consists of 90 min of blocking the perfusion and ventilation of the left lung followed by 240 min of reperfusion. Control animals had a thoracotomy with hilar dissection only. Indicators of lung injury included hemodynamic parameters, blood gas analysis, histopathological (lung pathology, wet/dry weight ratio, myeloperoxidase assay), and molecular biological profiles (interleukin-1beta [IL-1beta], IL-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay analysis). Lung tissue heat shock protein 70 (HSP-70) expression was also detected by Western blotting. This model of lung I/R induced significant lung injury with pulmonary hypertension, increased pulmonary vascular resistance, and pulmonary venous hypoxemia at the ischemia side, increased pulmonary tissue injury score and neutrophil infiltration, increased wet/dry ratio, myeloperoxidase assay, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, IL-1beta, and IL-6 assay. This type of thermal PC would not injure the lung parenchyma or tracheal epithelium. Moreover, it could attenuate the I/R-related lung injury, with some of these parameters improved significantly. Increased expression of HSP-70 was also found in the group of PC plus I/R than the I/R only. Less prominent and transient increase in expression of HSP-70 was found in the PC group. We concluded that the intratracheal thermal PC can effectively attenuate I/R-induced lung injury through various mechanisms, including the decrease of various proinflammatory cytokines. The mechanism of its protective effect might be related to the increased expression of HSP-70.

Abstract
Increased lung vascular permeability is an important contributor to respiratory failure in acute lung injury (ALI). We found that a function-blocking antibody against the integrin alphavbeta5 prevented development of lung vascular permeability in two different models of ALI: ischemia-reperfusion in rats (mediated by vascular endothelial growth factor [VEGF]) and ventilation-induced lung injury (VILI) in mice (mediated, at least in part, by transforming growth factor-beta [TGF-beta]). Knockout mice homozygous for a null mutation of the integrin beta5 subunit were also protected from lung vascular permeability in VILI. In pulmonary endothelial cells, both the genetic absence and blocking of alphavbeta5 prevented increases in monolayer permeability induced by VEGF, TGF-beta, and thrombin. Furthermore, actin stress fiber formation induced by each of these agonists was attenuated by blocking alphavbeta5, suggesting that alphavbeta5 regulates induced pulmonary endothelial permeability by facilitating interactions with the actin cytoskeleton. These results identify integrin alphavbeta5 as a central regulator of increased pulmonary vascular permeability and a potentially attractive therapeutic target in ALI.

Abstract
Lung ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury is one of the most important complications following lung transplant and cardiopulmonary bypass. The pulmonary dysfunction following lung IR has been well documented. Recent studies have shown that ischemia and reperfusion of the lung may each play significant yet differing roles in inducing lung injury. The mechanisms of injury involving neutrophil activation, and the release of numerous inflammatory mediators and oxygen radicals also contributes to lung cellular injury, pneumocyte necrosis, and apoptosis. We herein review the current understanding of the underlying mechanism involved in lung IR injury. The biomolecular mechanisms and interactions which lead to the inflammatory response, pneumocyte necrosis, and apoptosis following lung IR therefore warrant further investigation.

Abstract
In this rat model study we evaluated whether pretreatment with simvastatin affects the severity of acute lung injury caused by intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (I/R). Twenty-four animals were randomly allocated to three equal groups (sham, control, simvastatin). The simvastatin group was pretreated with simvastatin 10 mg x kg(-1) x day(-1) for 3 days, whereas the other groups received placebo. The simvastatin and control groups underwent 60 min of superior mesenteric artery occlusion and 90 min of reperfusion. Compared with the simvastatin group, the control group exhibited significantly more severe intestinal I/R-induced acute lung injury, as indicated by lower Pao2 and oxygen saturation (P = 0.01 and P = 0.005, respectively) and higher mean values for neutrophil infiltration of the lungs (P = 0.003), total lung histopathologic injury score (P = 0.003), lung wet-to-dry weight ratio (P = 0.009), and lung-tissue malondialdehyde levels (P = 0.016). The control and simvastatin groups had similar serum levels and similar bronchoalveolar lavage fluid levels of cytokines (interleukin-1, interleukin-6, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha) and P-selectin at all measurements, except for a significantly higher level of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid P-selectin in the control group (P = 0.006). Pretreatment with simvastatin reduces the severity of acute lung injury induced by intestinal I/R in rats.

Abstract
Pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion (I/R) without tissue hypoxia induces inflammatory cytokine mRNA expression in the lung under the condition of 0 mm Hg pulmonary venous pressure (0PVP), which might be a cause of I/R injury. Our aim is to determine whether the pulmonary vascular endothelium expresses cytokine mRNAs and their corresponding proteins or develops I/R injury when positive PVP is maintained during ischemia to provide a positive stretch to the endothelium throughout the ischemic period. In isolated, perfused, and ventilated rat lungs, the right and left pulmonary arteries were isolated, and the left lung was selectively occluded for 60 min and then reperfused for 30 min. During ischemia, the left atrial pressure was maintained at 5 mm Hg (5PVP) or 0PVP. TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, IL-6, and IL-10 mRNA expression in the lungs was evaluated by RT-PCR and in situ hybridization, and the production and localization of corresponding proteins were determined by staining with fluorescence-labeled antibodies against the cytokines and an antibody against CD34. Pulmonary vascular/epithelial permeability was evaluated by measuring albumin content in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and wet/dry ratio. At 5PVP, there were no increases in the left lung perfusion pressure, albumin content in BAL fluid, wet/dry ratio, or expression of cytokine mRNAs and their corresponding proteins on the vascular endothelium by I/R. In contrast, at 0PVP, the increased expression of cytokine mRNAs and their corresponding proteins on the vascular endothelium by I/R was verified. The finding that the application of 5PVP during ischemia abolished the expression of cytokine mRNAs and their corresponding proteins as well as the I/R injury gives us new insights in the study of lung preservation for transplantation.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury negatively impacts patient outcome in lung transplantation. Clinically, we observed that lung transplant patients with ischemia-reperfusion injury tend to have cardiac dysfunction. Previous studies have shown that ATL-146e (4-{3-[6-amino-9-(5-ethylcarbamoyl-3,4-dihydroxy-tetrahydro-furan-2-yl)-9H-purin-2-yl]-prop-2-ynyl}-cyclohexanecarboxylic acid methyl ester), a selective adenosine A2A receptor agonist, reduces lung inflammation after ischemia-reperfusion. We hypothesized that pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion causes secondary heart dysfunction and ATL-146e will improve this dysfunction. METHODS We utilized an in vivo rabbit lung ischemia-reperfusion model. The Sham group underwent 120 minutes single lung ventilation. The IR and ATL groups underwent 90 minutes right lung ischemia with 30 minutes right lung reperfusion. The ATL-146e was given intravenously to the ATL group during reperfusion. Cardiac output and arterial blood gases were monitored, and neutrophil sequestration was measured by myeloperoxidase activity. RESULTS Upon reperfusion, cardiac output (mL/min) significantly dropped in the IR and ATL groups. By 15 minutes reperfusion, cardiac output in the ATL group improved significantly over the IR group and remained significant thereafter. Lung myeloperoxidase activity was significantly reduced by ATL-146e. Although never hypoxemic, arterial oxygenation was lower in the IR and ATL groups while central venous pressures and mean arterial pressures were similar among groups. A separate experiment demonstrated that reperfusion with the antioxidant N-(2-mercaptopropionyl)glycine prevented cardiac dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS Pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion causes cardiac dysfunction independent of preload, afterload, and oxygenation. The ATL-146e improves this dysfunction presumably by the antiinflammatory effects of adenosine A2A receptor activation on neutrophils. One likely mechanism involves the release of oxidants from the ischemic lung upon reperfusion, which has immediate negative effects on the heart.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Soluble type I interleukin-1 receptor is a competitive inhibitor of interleukin-1 and may reduce its proinflammatory actions. The objective of this experiment was to demonstrate that endobronchial gene transfer of soluble type I interleukin-1 receptor IgG to donor lung grafts reduces posttransplant ischemia-reperfusion injury. METHODS All experiments utilized an orthotopic left lung isograft transplant model. Donors were divided into three groups (n = 6 each) for endobronchial transfection: group I received 2 x 10(7) plaque-forming units of adenovirus encoding soluble type I interleukin-1 receptor IgG; group II received 2 x 10(7) plaque-forming units of nonfunctional control adenovirus encoding beta-galactosidase; and group III received 0.1 mL of saline. Left lungs were harvested 24 hours after transfection and stored for 18 hours before transplantation. Graft function was assessed 24 hours after reperfusion using three measurements: isolated graft oxygenation, wet-to-dry lung weight ratio, and tissue myeloperoxidase activity. Transgene expression of soluble type I interleukin-1 receptor IgG was also evaluated using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay and immunohistochemistry. RESULTS Isolated graft arterial oxygenation was significantly improved in group I compared with groups II and III (281.8 +/- 134.8 versus 115.7 +/- 121.5 and 88.0 +/- 58.9 mm Hg, p = 0.0197 and p = 0.0081, respectively). Myeloperoxidase activity was also significantly reduced in group I compared with groups II and III (0.083 +/- 0.044 versus 0.155 +/- 0.043 and 0.212 +/- 0.079 optical density units per minute per milligram protein, p = 0.0485 and p = 0.0016, respectively). Expression of soluble type I interleukin-1 receptor IgG was detected only in lungs from group I. CONCLUSIONS Endobronchial gene transfer of soluble type I interleukin-1 receptor IgG to donor lung grafts subjected to prolonged cold ischemia ameliorates ischemia-reperfusion injury by improving graft oxygenation and reducing lung edema and neutrophil sequestration.

Abstract
STUDY OBJECTIVES Inhalation of nitric oxide (NO) can ameliorate pulmonary ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury of the lung in several experimental models, but toxic effects of NO were also reported. Here we investigate whether NO inhalation for a short period prior to surgery is sufficient to prevent symptoms of lung I/R injury, especially the inflammatory response. DESIGN Using an in situ porcine lung model, normothermic left lung ischemia was maintained for 90 min, followed by a 5-h reperfusion period (group 1, n = 7). In group 2 (n = 6), I/R was preceded by inhalation of NO (10 min, 15 ppm). Animals in group 3 (n = 7) underwent sham surgery without NO inhalation or ischemia. MEASUREMENTS Oxygenation and hemodynamic parameters were measured as indicators of lung functional impairment. Plasma levels of interleukin (IL)-1beta, IL-6, and transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 were determined throughout the I/R maneuver. In addition, tissue macrophages were analyzed by lectin binding. RESULTS Symptoms of I/R injury (pulmonary hypertension and decreased oxygenation) in group 1 animals were attenuated by NO inhalation. The reperfusion-induced increases of the levels of IL-1beta and IL-6 in plasma were reduced by NO pretreatment. A peak of TGF-beta1 immediately after NO administration was observed in group 2, but not in groups 1 and 3. There was no significant effect of NO on tissue macrophages. CONCLUSION NO inhalation for a short period prior to lung I/R is sufficient to protect against pulmonary hypertension, impaired oxygenation, and the inflammatory response of pulmonary I/R injury.

Abstract
We have been interested in elucidating how simultaneous stimuli modulate inflammation-related signal transduction pathways in lung parenchymal cells. We previously demonstrated that exposing respiratory epithelial cells to 95% oxygen (hyperoxia) synergistically increased tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-mediated activation of NF-kappaB and NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression by a mechanism involving increased activation of IkappaB kinase (IKK). Because the signal transduction mechanisms induced by IL-1beta are distinct to that of TNF-alpha, herein we sought to determine whether hyperoxia modulates IL-1beta-dependent signal transduction. In A549 cells, simultaneous treatment with hyperoxia and IL-1beta caused increased activation of IKK, prolonged the degradation of IkappaBalpha, and prolonged the nuclear translocation and DNA binding of NF-kappaB compared with cells treated with IL-1beta alone in room air. Hyperoxia did not affect IL-1beta-dependent degradation of the interleukin receptor-associated kinase differently from treatment with IL-beta alone. In contrast to the effects on the IKK/IkappaBalpha/NF-kappaB pathway, simultaneous treatment with hyperoxia and IL-1beta did not augment NF-kappaB-dependent gene expression compared with treatment with IL-1beta alone. Similar observations were made in a different human respiratory epithelial cell line, BEAS-2B cells. In addition, simultaneous treatment with hyperoxia and IL-1beta caused hyperphosphorlyation of the NF-kappaB p65 subunit compared with treatment with IL-1beta alone. In summary, concomitant treatment of A549 cells with hyperoxia and IL-1beta augments activation of IKK, prolongs degradation of IkappaBalpha, and prolongs nuclear translocation and DNA binding of NF-kappaB. This activation, however, is not coupled to increased expression of NF-kappaB-dependent genes, and the mechanism of this decoupling is not related to decreased phosphorylation of p65.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Proinflammatory cytokines are known to play roles in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the heart, kidney, small bowel, skin, and liver. Little is known about their roles in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the lung. This study was undertaken to define the role of 2 proinflammatory cytokines, tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1beta, in ischemia-reperfusion injury of the lung. METHODS Left lungs of male rats were rendered ischemic for 90 minutes and reperfused for up to 4 hours. Treated animals received anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha or anti-interleukin 1beta antibody before reperfusion. Increased vascular permeability in the lung was measured by using iodine 125-labeled bovine serum albumin. Neutrophil sequestration in the lung parenchyma was determined on the basis of activity. Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed to measure cell counts. Separate tissue samples were processed for histology, cytokine protein, and messenger RNA content by using Western blotting and the ribonuclease protection assay. RESULTS Animals receiving anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha and anti-interleukin 1beta demonstrated reduced injury compared with that seen in positive control animals (vascular permeability of 48.7% and 29.4% lower, respectively; P <.001). Vascular injury was reduced by 71% when antibodies to tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1beta were administered together. Lung neutrophil accumulation was markedly reduced among animals receiving anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha and anti-interleukin 1beta (myeloperoxidase content of 30.9% and 38.5% lower, respectively; P <.04) and combination blockade afforded even greater protection (52.4% decrease, P <.01). Bronchoalveolar lavage leukocyte content was also reduced by treatment with anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha, anti-interleukin 1beta, and combination treatment. Reductions in permeability, myeloperoxidase, and bronchoalveolar lavage leukocyte content also resulted in a decrease in a histologic injury. Finally, anti-tumor necrosis factor alpha and anti-interleukin 1beta treatment resulted in decreased messenger RNA expression for a number of early response and regulatory cytokines. CONCLUSION Tumor necrosis factor alpha and interleukin 1beta help regulate the development of lung ischemia-reperfusion injury. They appear to promote injury by altering expression of proinflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and influencing tissue neutrophil recruitment.

Abstract
Na síndrome de isquemia e reperfusão os pulmões podem ser alvo de lesão a distância como nos casos de choque, trauma ou ainda nos casos de transplante hepático. Objetivo: Avaliar o efeito protetor da N-acetilcisteína (NAC) sobre os pulmões após isquemia hepática. Métodos: Foram utilizados 12 ratos, machos, linhagem EPM-1 Wistar, separados aleatoriamente em dois grupos com seis animais (controle e experimento). Os animais de ambos os grupos foram submetidos à anestesia com cloridrato de quetamina e cloridrato de xilazina. Realizou-se a incisão mediana longitudinal, identificação do hilo hepático e da veia cava caudal. Quinze minutos antes do clampeamento injetou-se solução glicosada a 5% no grupo controle e NAC diluída em solução glicosada a 5% no grupo experimento. Os animais foram mantidos em isquemia hepática durante 30 minutos, sendo em seguida realizada toracotomia e remoção cirúrgica dos pulmões para avaliação histológica com coloração pela hematoxilina-eosina. Resultados: A análise dos cortes do parênquima pulmonar mostrou semelhança nos dois grupos estudados, ocorrendo colapso alveolar, infiltrado neutrofílico, congestão vascular e áreas hemorrágicas, compatíveis com a repercussão sistêmica da isquemia hepática. Conclusão: A NAC não modifica a lesão pulmonar decorrente da isquemia, à microscopia óptica.

Abstract
BACKGROUND FR167653 is a potent suppressant of production of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin (IL)-1 beta, which play an important role in hepatic and pulmonary injury due to ischemia/reperfusion of the liver and in liver regeneration after hepatectomy. We examined the effects of FR167653 on hepatectomy under ischemia/reperfusion in rats. METHODS After initial 15-min ischemia and 5-min reperfusion, 70% hepatectomy was performed during the second 15-min ischemia period in FR167653-treated (FR group) and saline-treated (saline group) rats. The survival rate, relative liver weight, TNF-alpha, IL-1 beta, DNA synthesis rate of the remnant liver, and histological change and adhesion molecule (ICAM-1) of the lung were examined. Serum glutamic pyruvic transaminase and hepatic malondialdehyde were also measured. RESULTS Expressions of TNF-alpha and IL-1 beta in the remnant liver were significantly inhibited in the FR group compared to the saline group. The survival was significantly better and pulmonary damage was less in the FR group after hepatectomy under ischemia/reperfusion. ICAM-1 expression of the lung was not altered after hepatectomy and was not significantly different between the two groups. Liver regeneration and injury were not significantly different between the two groups. CONCLUSION FR167653 does not affect liver injury and regeneration after hepatectomy under ischemia/reperfusion, while it ameliorates pulmonary injury and improves the survival.

Abstract
BACKGROUND FR167653 is a potent suppressant of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha and interleukin-1 (IL-1) production, and was shown to attenuate ischemia and reperfusion (I/R) organ injury in our previous experiment. Because p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) kinase has been reported to regulate the production of TNF-alpha and IL-1, we examined the effects of FR167653 in the rat lung I/R model and determined the expression and activation of p38 MAP kinase. METHODS Experiment 1: After 1 hour of ischemia, p38 MAP kinase, phosphorylated p38 MAP kinase (active form), histologic changes of the lung, and serum levels of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta were examined. Experiment 2: After 2 hours of reperfusion, arterial oxygen content (PaO(2)) and saturation (SaO(2)), serum TNF-alpha and IL-1beta levels, and histologic changes in the lung were examined. Rats were divided into three groups in Experiment 1. In the control group, a saline solution was administered and, in the FR group, 0.1 mg/kg per hour of FR167653 was administered, intravenously throughout the experiment, beginning 30 minutes before ischemia. In the non-ischemic group, samples were taken soon after thoracotomy. The rats were divided into control and FR groups in Experiment 2. RESULTS Experiment 1: One hour of ischemia induced almost no changes in the lung or serum cytokine levels. Meanwhile, FR167653 markedly attenuated the expression of phosphorylated p38 MAP kinase. Experiment 2: SaO(2) and PaO(2) were improved, serum cytokines were lower, and lung damage was less extensive in the FR group than in the control group. CONCLUSION FR167653 attenuates I/R injury of the lung and this attenuation is associated with suppression of p38 MAP kinase activation.

Abstract
Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) has recently been noted to function as a pulmotrophic factor for lung regeneration. The present study was conducted to determine if HGF would be induced in a rat model of pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, which was established by occlusion of the left lung, and to examine the significance of HGF in subsequent lung repair. The sham-operated rats underwent simple thoracotomy in which the lung was not clamped. We measured the plasma and the tissue levels of HGF by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays, and the expression of HGF mRNA by Northern blotting. The plasma HGF level was markedly elevated after pulmonary ischemia and reached the peak value on the third postoperative day, being 5-fold higher than that of the sham-operated rats. HGF mRNA expression and the tissue HGF levels were augmented twofold in the ischemic reperfused lung. Immunohistochemical analysis revealed that the infiltrating alveolar macrophages were intensely stained for HGF. DNA synthesis of alveolar epithelial cells, as identified by proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) staining, was 3-fold higher in the reperfused lung than in the sham-operated lung. Notably, HGF-neutralizing treatment with an anti-HGF antibody reduced DNA synthesis of alveolar epithelial cells in the reperfused lung and aggravated lung injury. This study shows that HGF was induced in the ischemic reperfused lung and may play an important role in regeneration of an injured lung after pulmonary IR.

Abstract
Little is known about interactions between endogenous anti-inflammatory paradigms and microvascular thrombosis in lung ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. Interleukin (IL)-10 suppresses macrophage activation and down-regulates proinflammatory cytokine production, but there are no available data to suggest a link between IL-10, thrombosis, and fibrinolysis in the setting of I/R. We hypothesized that hypoxia/ischemia triggers IL-10 production, to dampen proinflammatory cytokine and adhesion receptor cascades and to restore vascular patency by fibrinolytic potentiation. Studies were performed in a mouse lung I/R model. IL-10 mRNA levels in lung were increased 43-fold over base line by 1 h of ischemia/2 h of reperfusion, with a corresponding increase in plasma IL-10. Expression was prominently localized in bronchial epithelial cells and mononuclear phagocytes. To study the link between IL-10 and fibrinolysis in vivo, the induction of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) was evaluated. Northern analysis demonstrated exaggerated pulmonary PAI-1 expression in IL-10 (-/-) mice after I/R, with a corresponding increase in plasma PAI/tissue-type plasminogen activator activity. In vivo, IL-10 (-/-) mice showed poor postischemic lung function and survival after I/R compared with IL-10 (+/+) mice. Despite a decrease in infiltration of mononuclear phagocytes in I/R lungs of IL-10 (-/-) mice, an increased intravascular pulmonary fibrin deposition was observed by immunohistochemistry and Western blotting, along with increased IL-1 expression. Recombinant IL-10 given to IL-10 (-/-) mice normalized the PAI/tissue-type plasminogen activator ratio, reduced pulmonary vascular fibrin deposition, and rescued mice from lung injury. Since recombinant hirudin (direct thrombin inhibitor) also sufficed to rescue IL-10 (-/-) mice, these data suggest a preeminent role for microvascular thrombosis in I/R lung injury. Ischemia-driven IL-10 expression confers postischemic pulmonary protection by augmenting endogenous fibrinolytic mechanisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Ischemia followed by reperfusion (I/R) induces gastric lesions, probably due to excessive formation of free radicals, but the role of the scavenger of these radicals, proinflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-1beta (IL-1beta) and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha), in the healing of these lesions has not been extensively studied. It is also unknown whether expression of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), which mediates neutrophil-induced injury and neutrophil infiltration, is involved in the recovery from I/R lesions. METHODS I/R lesions were induced in Wistar rats by applying a small clamp to the celiac artery for 30 min (ischemia phase), followed by the removal of the clamp for 60 min (reperfusion phase). The influence of I/R on gastric secretion was also tested in rats equipped with a gastric fistula (GF) without or with the exposure to a standard period of I/R. Two series of rats (A and B) were used to determine the effects of exogenous and endogenous superoxide dismutase SOD (series A) and allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase inhibitor (series B), on the mucosal recovery from the gastric lesions induced by I/R. The animals were killed immediately after the exposure to I/R (0 h) and at 3 h, 24 h, or 3, 5, or 10 days after this I/R, the area of gastric lesions being measured by planimetry, and the gastric blood flow (GBF) determined by the H2 gas clearance method. Blood was withdrawn for measurement of plasma IL-1beta and TNF-alpha levels with enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and plasma gastrin with radioimmunoassay. Biopsy samples of oxyntic mucosa were taken for the assessment of SOD, IL-1beta, TNF-alpha, and ICAM-1 mRNAs by reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction and Southern blot. RESULTS Exposure to I/R resulted in acute gastric erosions, with the maximal increase of the area of these lesions observed 3 h after the end of I/R. This effect was accompanied by a decrease in the GBF, a significant increase in blood free radicals and plasma gastrin increments, and almost complete suppression of gastric secretion. Starting 24 h after I/R, the gastric superficial lesions progressed into deeper ulcers that healed progressively within 10 days, and this was accompanied by gradual restoration of the gastric secretion and the GBF. Treatment with SOD and allopurinol accelerated significantly the healing of I/R erosions, and this effect was accompanied by a significant increase in the GBF and the attenuation of blood free radicals. At 0, 3, and 12 h after I/R a significant decrease in SOD mRNA was observed, whereas expression of TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and ICAM-1 showed a progressive increase starting immediately after I/R, reaching a maximum on day 3. The plasma level of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta started to increase on day 3 and peaked on day 5 after I/R, being still significantly higher at day 10 than that measured in the vehicle-treated control gastric mucosa. On day 10 the gastric ulcers were almost completely healed, and a decrease in the expression for TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, and ICAM-1 mRNA and an increase in the expression of SOD mRNA were observed. CONCLUSIONS 1) exposure to I/R produces gastric lesions mediated by the excessive formation of free radicals, resulting in suppression of both gastric microcirculation and secretory activity of the stomach; 2) SOD and allopurinol accelerate the healing of I/R lesions, probably due to suppression of oxygen free radicals and improvement of gastric microcirculation; and 3) the upregulation of SOD mRNA, with subsequent increase in the SOD production and local release of IL-1beta and TNF-alpha, may activate ICAM-1 expression and neutrophil infiltration, which appear to play an important role in the progression of I/R-induced acute gastric erosions into chronic ulcers.

Abstract
Transiently increased expression of leukocyte adhesion receptors after lung preservation contributes to early graft demise by recruiting leukocytes, activating complement, and causing microcirculatory stasis. We hypothesized that inhibiting intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) expression even briefly may significantly improve lung graft function and that the preservation period might provide a unique window to deliver a therapeutic pulse of antisense oligonucleotide ICAM-1 to inhibit ICAM-1 expression after transplantation. Interleukin-1beta-treated rat pulmonary endothelial cells given a 20-mer phosphorothioate oligonucleotide comprising an antisense span targeted to the 3'-untranslated region of rat ICAM-1 demonstrated an oligonucleotide dose-dependent reduction in ICAM-1 expression. Using a cationic liposomal carrier, this same antisense oligonucleotide (but not the sense control) instilled into the pulmonary vasculature at the time of preservation reduced subsequent graft ICAM-1 expression and graft leukostasis and markedly improved oxygenation, pulmonary blood flow, and graft survival. These experiments demonstrate that the preservation period presents a window during which to target an anti-ICAM-1 expression strategy to inhibit early adhesion receptor expression and improve functional outcome after lung transplantation.

Abstract
In this study, the biochemical mechanisms by which N-nitroso-N-methylurethane (NNMU) induces acute lung injury are examined. Polymorphonuclear neutrophil infiltration into the lungs first appears in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid 24 h after NNMU injection (10.58 +/- 3.00% of total cells; P < 0.05 vs. control animals). However, NNMU-induced elevation of the alveolar-arterial O2 difference requires 72 h to develop. Daily intraperitoneal injections of the inducible nitric oxide (. NO) synthase (iNOS)-selective inhibitor aminoguanidine (AG) initiated 24 h after NNMU administration improve the survival of NNMU-treated animals. However, AG administration initiated 48 or 72 h after NNMU injection does not significantly improve the survival of NNMU-treated animals. These results suggest that. NO participates in events that occur early in NNMU-induced acute lung injury. BAL cells isolated from rats 24 and 48 h after NNMU injection produce elevated. NO and express iNOS during a 24-h ex vivo culture. AG attenuates. NO production but does not affect iNOS expression, whereas actinomycin D prevents iNOS expression and attenuates. NO production by BAL cells during this ex vivo culture. These results suggest that NNMU-derived BAL cells can stimulate iNOS expression and. NO production during culture. In 48-h NNMU-exposed rats, iNOS expression is elevated in homogenates of whole lavaged lungs but not in BAL cells derived from the same lung. These findings suggest that the pathogenic mechanism by which NNMU induces acute lung injury involves BAL cell stimulation of iNOS expression and. NO production in lung tissue.
