OBJECTIVE: Acute lung injury is a detrimental complication for victims of burn accidents. Airway obstruction plays an important role in pulmonary dysfunction in these patients. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that aerosolized anticoagulants will reduce the degree of airway obstruction and improve pulmonary function in sheep with severe combined burn and smoke inhalation injury by preventing the formation of airway fibrin clots. DESIGN: Prospective, randomized, controlled, experimental animal study. SETTING: Investigational intensive care unit at a university hospital. SUBJECTS: Adult female sheep. INTERVENTIONS: After 7 days of surgical recovery, sheep were given a cutaneous burn (40% of total body surface, third degree) and insufflated with cotton smoke (48 breaths, <40 degrees C) under halothane anesthesia. After injury, sheep were placed on ventilators and resuscitated with lactated Ringer's solution. Sheep were randomly divided into five groups: sham, noninjured and nontreated (n = 6); control, injured and aerosolized with saline (n = 6); recombinant human antithrombin (rhAT) + heparin, injured and aerosolized with rhAT (290 units for each) and heparin (10,000 units for each) (n = 6); rhAT, injured and aerosolized with rhAT alone (290 units for each; n = 5); and heparin, injured and aerosolized with heparin alone (10,000 units for each; n = 5). rhAT and heparin were aerosolized every 4 hrs, starting at 2 hrs postinjury. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Cardiopulmonary hemodynamics were monitored during a 48-hr experimental time period. Control sheep developed multiple signs of acute lung injury. This pathophysiology included decreased pulmonary gas exchange and lung compliance, increased pulmonary edema, and extensive airway obstruction. These variables were stable in sham animals. The aerosolization of rhAT or heparin alone did not significantly improve deteriorated pulmonary gas exchange. However, aerosolization of these anticoagulants in combination significantly attenuated all the observed pulmonary pathophysiology. CONCLUSIONS: The results provide definitive evidence that aerosolized rhAT and heparin in combination may be a novel treatment strategy for pulmonary pathology in burn victims with smoke inhalation injury. 相似文献

Interleukin-2 (IL-2), a cytokine that induces natural killer cells termed lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, is in use as an anticancer agent. During IL-2 therapy, adverse effects, such as vasodilatation and hypotension, are common. Previous studies suggest that these effects are due to nitric oxide (NO). Therefore a model of IL-2-induced hyperdynamic response in sheep was developed to test the effect of pyridoxalated haemoglobin polyoxyethylene conjugate (PHP; a NO scavenger), which is currently in clinical development for the treatment of shock associated with systemic inflammatory response syndrome. Twelve female sheep were divided into four groups (n =3 per group): sham control (Ringer's lactate solution), PHP alone (20 mg x kg(-1) x h(-1) for 96 h), IL-2 alone (recombinant human IL-2; 1,440,000 units/kg intravenously every 8 h) and a combination of PHP and IL-2. All of the sheep received Ringer's lactate solution to maintain haematocrit at baseline levels. The sheep had free access to food and water. A fall in the mean arterial pressure and systemic vascular resistance index by 20% was observed in the IL-2 group, but not in the PHP+IL-2 group. The fluid requirement to maintain the haematocrit was higher in the IL-2 group (5 ml x kg(-1) x h(-1)) than in the PHP+IL-2 group (4 ml x kg(-1) x h(-1)). The sham group showed no changes in any of the parameters. Scavenging NO by PHP prevented the hyperdynamic reaction induced by IL-2 administration in sheep. This activity of PHP may prevent the early discontinuation of IL-2 therapy that results because of these adverse events. 相似文献

We modified our established and clinically relevant ARDS model of smoke inhalation injury and septic shock by administration of combined antibiotics (AB) such as piperacillin and ciprofloxacin, to more closely mimic the clinical intensive care setting. Twenty-three sheep were subjected to the injury, and allocated to four groups for a 96 h study period: sham (n = 5 non-injured); control (n = 6: injured); AB6h (n = 6: injured, antibiotics started 6 h post-injury); AB12h (n = 6: injured, antibiotics started 12 h post-injury). All sham animals survived 96 h. Control, AB6h, AB12h groups reached criteria of septic shock within 12 h post-injury. All controls died within 36 h. Eighty three percent of AB6h and fifty percent of AB12h survived 96 h. Median survival times were significantly improved in the treated groups compared with the control group: 24 h in control vs. 80.5 h in AB6h, and 65 h in AB12h animals. Combined ciprofloxacin and piperacillin therapy was effective, reduced nitric oxide production and mortality, and will allow future long-term studies in this model. 相似文献

We recently reported that the glutathione transferase in rat liver mitochondrial membranes (mtMGST1) is activated by S-glutathionylation and the activated mtMGST1 contributes to the mitochondrial permeability transition (MPT) pore and cytochrome c release from mitochondria [Lee, K.K., Shimoji, M., Quazi, S.H., Sunakawa, H., Aniya, Y., 2008. Novel function of glutathione transferase in rat liver mitochondrial membrane: role for cytochrome c release from mitochondria. Toxcol. Appl. Pharmacol. 232, 109-118]. In the present study we investigated the effect of reactive oxygen species (ROS), generator gallic acid (GA) and GST inhibitors on mtMGST1 and the MPT. When rat liver mitochondria were incubated with GA, mtMGST1 activity was increased to about 3 fold and the increase was inhibited with antioxidant enzymes and singlet oxygen quenchers including 1,4-diazabicyclo [2,2,2] octane (DABCO). GA-mediated mtMGST1 activation was prevented by GST inhibitors such as tannic acid, hematin, and cibacron blue and also by cyclosporin A (CsA). In addition, GA induced the mitochondrial swelling which was also inhibited by GST inhibitors, but not by MPT inhibitors CsA, ADP, and bongkrekic acid. GA also released cytochrome c from the mitochondria which was inhibited completely by DABCO, moderately by GST inhibitors, and somewhat by CsA. Ca2+-mediated mitochondrial swelling and cytochrome c release were inhibited by MPT inhibitors but not by GST inhibitors. When the outer mitochondrial membrane was isolated after treatment of mitochondria with GA, mtMGST1 activity was markedly increased and oligomer/aggregate of mtMGST1 was observed. These results indicate that mtMGST1 in the outer mitochondrial membrane is activated by GA through thiol oxidation leading to protein oligomerization/aggregation, which may contribute to the formation of ROS-mediated, CsA-insensitive MPT pore, suggesting a novel mechanism for regulation of the MPT by mtMGST1. 相似文献

Previous study in an ovine model of smoke inhalation and burn (S + B) injury has shown distal migration of upper airway mucus. This study examines the localization of an upper airway gland specific mucus, mucin 5B (MUC5B) in lung autopsy tissues of burn-only injury and in victims of S + B injury. We hypothesize that victims with S + B injury would exhibit increased distal migration of MUC5B than that seen in victims of burn-only injury. Autopsy lung tissue from victims of burn injury alone (n = 38) and combined S + B injury (n = 22) were immunostained for MUC5B. No normal lung tissues were included in the study. Semiquantitative analysis of the extent of MUC5B in bronchioles and parenchyma was performed on masked slides. Irrespective of injury conditions, all victims showed MUC5B in bronchioles. Mucin 5B was seen in the parenchyma except in two burn victims. No statistically significant difference was seen in the mean bronchiolar and parenchyma MUC5B scores between S + B and burn-only victims (P > 0.05). No strong statistical correlation of MUC5B scores with days postinjury or to the number of ventilatory days was evident. The percentage of pneumonia, identified histologically, was also similar between study groups. This study did not confirm our results in an ovine model of S + B injury. In contrast, virtually all pediatric burn victims, regardless of concomitant inhalation injury, showed MUC5B in their bronchioles and parenchyma. Increased mucus synthesis and/or impaired mucociliary function may contribute to the pulmonary pathophysiology associated with burn injury. 相似文献

Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA)-related pneumonia and/or sepsis are a frequent serious menace. The aim of the study was to establish a standardized and reproducible model of MRSA-induced septic pneumonia to evaluate new therapies. Sheep were operatively prepared for chronic study. After 5 days' recovery, tracheostomy was performed under anesthesia, and smoke injury was induced by inhalation of cotton smoke (48 breaths, <40 degrees C). Methicillin-resistant S. aureus (AW6) (approximately 2.5x10(11) colony-forming units) was instilled into the airway by a bronchoscope. After the injury, animals were awakened and maintained on mechanical ventilation by 100% oxygen for first 3 h, and thereafter, oxygen concentration was adjusted according to blood gases. The sheep were resuscitated by lactated Ringer solution with an initial rate of 2 mL kg(-1) h(-1) that was further adjusted according to hematocrit. Study groups include (1) sham (noninjured, nontreated; n=6), (2) S+MRSA (exposed to smoke inhalation and MRSA, nontreated; n=6), and (3) smoke (exposed to smoke inhalation alone; n=6). Injured (S+MRSA) animals showed the signs of severe sepsis-related multiple organ failure 3 h after insult. Cardiovascular morbidity was evidenced by severe hypotension, with increased heart rate, cardiac output, left atrial pressure and severely decreased systemic vascular resistance index, and left ventricle stroke work index. Pulmonary dysfunction was characterized by deteriorated gas exchange (PaO2/FIO2 and pulmonary shunt) and increased ventilatory pressures. The S+MRSA group showed significantly greater lung tissue water content, myeloperoxidase activity, and cytokine production compared with uninjured sham animals. Microvascular hyperpermeability was evidenced by marked fluid retention (fluid net balance), decreased plasma protein with decreased plasma oncotic pressure, and increased pulmonary microvascular pressure. All these changes were accompanied by 6- to 7-fold increase in plasma nitrite/nitrate and increased production of reactive nitrogen species in lung. The smoke inhalation alone had a little or no effect on these variables. This model closely mimics hyperdynamic human sepsis. The excessive production of NO may be extensively involved in the pathogenic process. 相似文献

Background
Septic shock is a major cause of death in intensive care units around the world . The aim of the study was to investigate whether the novel drug R-100 (a superoxide degradation catalyst and nitric oxide donor) improves pulmonary function in a sheep model of septic shock caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and smoke inhalation.Methods
Eleven female sheep were prepared surgically and randomly assigned to a treatment group (n = 5) or a control group (n = 6) after inhalation of cooled cotton smoke and airway instillation of live P. aeruginosa (2.5 × 1011 CFU) by bronchoscope under deep anesthesia and analgesia. The treatment group received an intravenous infusion of a total of 80 mg/kg of R-100 diluted in 500 mL of 5% dextrose. The control group was given 500 mL of 5% dextrose. All animals received intravenous lactated Ringer’s solution to maintain a hematocrit level at baseline ± 3%. Blood gas and hemodynamics were measured at baseline and then analyzed every 3 h during the 24-h study period. Results are expressed as mean ± SEM.Results
The treated animals showed significant improvement in their pulmonary gas exchange (PaO2/FiO2 ratio at 24 h: 246 ± 29 vs. 90 ± 40 mmHg control, P < 0.05). Pulmonary arterial pressures were reduced in the treated group (24 h: 26 ± 1 vs. 30 ± 2 cm mmHg control, P < 0.05). The treated animals also had an improved total fluid balance after 24 h (190 ± 45/24 h mL vs. 595 ± 234/24 h mL control, P < 0.05).Conclusions
Treatment with R-100 improves pulmonary gas exchange and blood oxygenation, and prevents a fluid imbalance in sheep subjected to smoke inhalation and P. aeruginosa.10.
