Abstract：

Objective To investigate the effects of penehyclidine hydrochloride (PHCD) on acute lung injury (ALI) induced by blunt chest trauma and Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) expression in the lung tissues in rats.Methods Ninety-six male SD rats weighing 250-300 g were randomly divided into 3 groups ( n = 32 each):control group (group C), ALI group and PHCD group. ALI was induced by dropping a 300 g weight onto a precordial protective shield to direct the impact force away from the heart and toward the lungs in anesthetized rats according to the method described by Raghavendran et al. PHCD 2 mg/kg was injected intraperitoneally immediately after ALI was induced in group PHCD. Eight rats were selected at 2, 8, 12 and 24 h after ALI was induced, and arterial blood samples were collected for determination of the serum TNF-α concentration. Eight rats were selected at 8 h after ALI was induced, arterial blood samples collected for blood gas analysis and then the rats sacrificed. The lungs were immediately removed for determination of W/D lung weight ratio, myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity and TLR4 expression, and microscopic examination. Results The pH value and PaO2 were significantly lower, and the PaCO2, lactic acid level, MPO activity, W/D ratio, TLR4 expression and serum TNF-α concentration higher in groups ALI and PHCD than in group C (P ＜ 0.01 ). The pH value and PaO2 were significantly higher, and the PaCO2, lactic acid level, MPO activity, W/D ratio, TLR4 expression and serum TNF-α concentration lower in group PHCD than in group ALI ( P ＜ 0.05). The lung histopathologic damage was significantly ameliorated in PHCD group as compared with ALI group. Conclusion PHCD can protect the lungs against blunt chest trauma-induced ALI, and the down-regulation of TLR4 expression in lung tissues and reduction of inflammatory response are involved in the mechanism.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the effect of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) on the activation of mouse lung fibroblasts. Methods Primary cultured mouse lung fibroblasts were incubated in 96 well plates and randomly divided into 2 groups: control group ( group C, n = 6) and LPS group ( n = 24). The fibroblasts were cultured for 72 h in group C. LPS 1 μg/ml was added and then the fibroblasts were incubated for 72 h in group LPS. The expression of type Ⅰ procollagen mRNA, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) mRNA, Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)mRNA and integrin β1 mRNA was determined using real-time PCR at 3, 6, 24 and 72 h of incubation (6 wells at each time point). Results Compared with group C, there was no significant change in the expression of type Ⅰ procollagen mRNA, α-SMA mRNA, TLR4 mRNA and integrin β1 mRNA at 3, 6 and 24 h of incubation ( P ＞0.05), but the parameters mentioned above were significantly up-regulated at 72 h of incubation in group LPS ( P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion In the early acute lung injury, LPS leads to pulmonary fibrosis through activating lung fibroblasts directly, and also accelerates the activation of lung fibroblasts and promotes the process of pulmonary fibrosis through up-regulating the expression of TLR4 and integrin β1 in mice.

Abstract：

Objective To investigate the effects of different concentrations of dexmedetomidine on the expression of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) mRNA in rat peripheral blood monocytes exposed to lipopolysaccharide ( LPS ). Methods Peripheral blood monocytes isolated from male Wistar rats were seeded in 24-well plate in RPMI 1640 liquid culture medium in CO2 incubator at 37 ℃ and 5% CO2 for 2 h, and were randomly divided into 5 groups ( n = 8 each): group A negative control; group B was exposed to LPS 1 μg/ml and C, D and E groups were exposed to LPS 1 μg/ml + dexmetomidine 0.5, 5.0 and 50.0 ng/ml respectively. The monocytes were then incubated for 24 h. The concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in the supernatant of the cultured monocytes were detected by ELISA. The expression of TLR4 mRNA in the monocytes was detected by RT-PCR.Results Exposure to LPS significantly increased the expression of TLR4 mRNA and the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL -6 in group B as compared with group A ( P ＜ 0.01 ). Dexmedetomidine attenuated the LPS-induced increase in the expression of TLR 4 mRNA and the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 in a dose-dependent manner ( P ＜0.05or 0.01 ). Conclusion Dexmedetomidine can inhibit the synthesis of TLR4 and inhibit the secretion and dilivery of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6 by down-regulating the gene expression of TLR4 in rat peripheral blood monocytes exposed to LPS.     

Changes of pulmonary intercellular adhesion molecule-1 and CD11b／CD18 in peripheral polymorphonuclear neutrophils and their significance at the early stage of burns

Objective: To investigate the role of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) in the accumulation of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) in the lungs at the early stage of burns. Methods: Myeloperoxidase content in lung tissues and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were detected.ICAM-1 and its mRNA expression in lung tissues were determined bycal method and in situ hybridization. CD11b/CD18 expression on the peripheral PMNs was measured by flowcytometry. Results : The levels of myeloperoxidase in lung tissues and BALF after burn injury were markedly higher than those of control. Expression of ICAM-1 and its mRNA in the lung tissues and CD11b/CD18 on peripheral PMNs surface was significantly increased at 2, 6, 12, 24 h after burns. Conclusions. PMNs accumulation in the lungs is related to increased ICAM-1 expression on pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells and CD11b/CD18 expression on PMN at the early stage of burn injury.     

七氟烷后处理对大鼠肺缺血再灌注损伤的影响

Objective To investigate the effects of aevoflurane postconditioning on lung iscbemia-reperfusion (IR) injury in rats and the mechanism involved. Methods Ninety-six male SD rots weighing 270-330 g were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 24 each): sham operation group (group S), group IR, sevoflurane preconditioning group (group SPr), and sevoflurane postconditioning group (group SPo). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 10% chloral hydrate 400 mg/kg, tracheostomized and mechanically ventilated. Lung IR was produced by occlusion of the hilum of the left lung for 45 min and then it was unclamped for reperfusion, in group SPr, sevoflurane was inhaled at the end-tidal concentration of 2.1% 30 min before lung ischemia. In group SPo, sevoflurane was inhaled at the end-tidal concentration of 2.1% immediately before reperfusiun. Six rats from each group were sacrificed at 30 min, 1 h, 2 h, and 4 h of reperfnsion respectively. The TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6 concentrations, and WBC count in broncho-alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were determined.The percentage of PMN in WBC was calculated. The lungs were removed for determination of the cdntent of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6 in the lung tissues and microscopic examination. The apoptosis index (AI) was calculated by TUNEL assay. Lung injury was scored. Results The levels of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6 in lung tissues and BALF, AI, WBC count, percentage of PMN, and lung injury scores were significantly higher in group IR than in group S (P < 0.01). The content of TNF-α, IL-1 and IL-6 in lung tissues was significantly higher in group SPr and SPo than in group S (P < 0.01). The indices mentioned above were all significantly lower in group SPr and SPo than in group IR (P < 0.05 or 0.01). No significant differences were found in the indices mentioned above between group SPr and SPo (P > 0.05). Conclusion Sevoflurane postconditioning can protect the lungs from IR injury by decreasing the inflammatory reaction and inhibiting the apoptosis in pulmonary vascular endothelial and alveolar epithelial cells, and the effect is similar to that of sevoflurane preconditioning.     

The effect of 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxy-pyrimidine on postburn Staphylococcus aureus sepsis in rats

GTP-cyclohydrolase I (GTP-CHI) is the first and rate-limiting enzyme for the de novo biosynthesis of biopterin. The present study was to observe the effect of 2,4-diamino-6-hydroxy-pyrimidine (DAHP),an inhibtor of GTP-CHI, on the development of postburn Staphylococcus aureus sepsis. Methods: 56 male Wistar rats were randomly divided into four groups as follows: normal control group (n= 10), scald control group(n= 10),pos tburn sepsis group (n= 20) and DA HP treatment group (n= 16). In the scald control group, rats were subjected to a 20% total body surface area (TBSA) Ⅲ° scald injury, then sacrificed at 24 hrs. In the postburn sepsis group (n=20), rats were inflicted with 20% TBSA Ⅲ° scald followed by Staphylococcus aureus challenge, and they were further divided into 2 and 6 hrs groups. In the DAHP treatment group (n= 16), animals were intraperitoneally injected with a dose of 1g/kg DAHP prior to Staphylococcus aureus challenge, and then further divided into 2, 6 hrs groups. Tissue samples from liver, kidneys, lungs and heart were collected to determine GTP-CHI, inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) mRNA expression. Meanwhile, biopterin and nitric oxide (NO) levels in these tissues were also measured. Results: After the scald injury followed by Staphylococcus aureus challenge, GTP-CHI mRNA expression and biopterin levels significantly elevated in various tissues such as liver, heart, kidneys and lungs, so did the values of iNOS mRNA expression and NO formation (P＜0.01). Pretreatment with DAHP could significantly reduce GTP-CHI/biopterin induction (P＜0. 05～0. 01), and the up-regulation of iNOS/NO was also suppressed. Furthermore, DAHP administration could also inhibit the gene expression of TNF-α. 2 hrs after septic challenge, TNF-α mRNA expression in liver, kidneys and lungs in DAHP-treated group were 35.7%, 37.3% and 33.0% of those in postburn septic group, respectively. Additionally, in animals without DAHP treatment, the 6-hour mortality was 55.6% (20/36), while it was only 25.0% in DAHP-treated animals (4/16, P=0. 08). Conclusions: Early treatment with DAHP might be a potential strategy to prevent the development of postburn Staphylococcal sepsis, which appears to be associated with down-regulation of biopterin and NO formation by DAHP.

维生素C减轻失血性休克引起的大鼠肺树突细胞聚集及肺损伤

目的 探讨失血性休克对大鼠肺组织树突细胞聚集及肺损伤的影响,以及维生素C的保护作用.方法 SD大鼠(6～7周龄)42只,按数字随机法随机分为对照组、失血性休克2h、6h、24 h组及失血性休克+维生素C2h、6h、24 h组等7组,每组各6只.以股动脉放血法建立大鼠失血性休克模型.免疫组化和逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)法检测肺组织树突细胞特异性细胞间粘附分子非整合素蛋白-3(DC-SIGN)表达情况.同时检测肺TNF-α、IL-6含量,髓过氧化物酶(MPO)活性,并进行肺损伤评分.结果 对照组肺中DC-SIGN蛋白表达很少,失血性休克组表达显著升高(P＜0.05),失血性休克后2h肺DC-SIGNmRNA含量就开始增高,休克后24 h仍呈升高趋势.失血性休克组大鼠肺TNF-α、IL-6 mRNA水平升高(P＜0.05),MPO活性增加(P＜0.05),病理损伤显著加重(P＜0.05).失血性休克大鼠在复苏前给予维生素C干预后,上述现象均减轻(P＜0.05).结论 失血性休克可能通过促进肺组织树突细胞聚集引起急性肺损伤.维生素C对这一过程有抑制作用.     

血管紧张素Ⅱ通过TLR4-MyD88途径诱导大鼠肾小管上皮细胞炎性因子释放

目的 观察血管紧张素Ⅱ（AngⅡ）刺激肾小管上皮细胞（NRK-52E）后肿瘤坏死因子α（TNF-α）和热休克蛋白47（HSP47）的表达,分析Toll样受体4（TLR4）信号通路的变化与上述因子的关联,探讨AngⅡ促进NRK-52E细胞炎性反应、纤维化的天然免疫机制。 方法 细胞同步化后,将其分为4组：对照组、AngⅡ（10-7 mmol/L）组、坎地沙坦（10-5 mmol/L）+AngⅡ组、TLR4阻断剂（20 mg/L）+AngⅡ组,培养6 h后RT-PCR法检测TLR4及转接信号髓分化因子88（MyD88）mRNA表达水平;12 h后免疫荧光法检测细胞表面TLR4蛋白表达;24 h后以ELISA法检测细胞上清液TNF-α及HSP47的浓度。 结果 与对照组相比,AngⅡ显著上调NRK-52E细胞 TLR4、MyD88 mRNA和TLR4蛋白表达（均P < 0.01）,并诱导细胞TNF-α和HSP47的释放（均P < 0.01）。与AngⅡ组相比,TLR4阻断剂和坎地沙坦干预均显著抑制 AngⅡ对细胞TLR4、MyD88的刺激效应（均P < 0.01）;坎地沙坦抑制AngⅡ诱导的细胞 TNF-α、HSP47的释放（均P < 0.01）,TLR4阻断剂对细胞 TNF-α、HSP47的下调呈剂量依赖性。 结论 AngⅡ对NRK-52E细胞天然免疫信号TLR4、MyD88具有激活效应,该信号激活可能是AngⅡ促进肾小管细胞炎性相关因子释放的重要机制之一。坎地沙坦抑制肾小管细胞炎性因子的体外效应也与其调节该信号通路有关。
