Reexpansion pulmonary edema parallels reperfusion (reoxygenation) injuries in other organs in that hypoxic and hypoperfused lung tissue develops increased vascular permeability and neutrophil infiltration after reexpansion. This study investigated endogenous lung catalase activity and H2O2 production during hypoxia (produced by lung collapse) and after reoxygenation (resulting from reexpansion), in addition to assessing the effects of exogenous catalase infusion on the development of unilateral pulmonary edema after reexpansion. Lung collapse resulted in a progressive increase in endogenous catalase activity after 3 (14%) and 7 days (23%), while activities in contralateral left lungs did not change (normal left lungs averaged 180 +/- 11 units/mg DNA). Tissue from control left lungs released H2O2 into the extracellular medium at a rate calculated to be 242 +/- 34 nmol.h-1.lung-1. No significant change in extracellular release of H2O2 occurred after 7 days of right lung collapse. However, after reexpansion of the previously collapsed right lungs for 2 h, H2O2 release from both reexpanded right and contralateral left lungs significantly increased (88 and 60%, respectively) compared with controls. Infusion of exogenous catalase significantly increased plasma and lung catalase activities. Exogenous catalase infusion prevented neither the increase in lung permeability nor the infiltration with neutrophils that typically occurs in reexpanded lungs. These data indicate that lung hypoxia/reoxygenation, induced by sequential collapse and reexpansion, has specific effects on endogenous lung catalase activity and H2O2 release. However, exogenous catalase does not prevent reexpansion pulmonary edema, eliminating extracellular (but not intracellular) H2O2 as an important mediator of unilateral lung injury in this model. 相似文献

The pathogenesis of reexpansion pulmonary edema is not yet fully understood. We therefore studied its mechanism in a rat model in which the left lung was collapsed by bronchial occlusion for 1 h and then reexpanded and ventilated for an additional 3 h. We then evaluated the production of reactive oxygen species in the lungs using fluorescent imaging and cerium deposition electron microscopic techniques and the incidence of apoptosis using the TdT-mediated dUTP-digoxigenin nick end labeling (TUNEL) method. We found that pulmonary reexpansion induced production of reactive oxygen species and then apoptosis, mainly in endothelial and alveolar type II epithelial cells. Endothelial cells and alveolar type I and II epithelial cells in the reexpanded lung were positive for TUNEL and cleaved caspase-3. DNA fragmentation was also observed in the reexpanded lung. In addition, wet-dry ratios obtained with reexpanded lungs were significantly higher than those obtained with control lungs, indicating increased fluid content. All of these effects were attenuated by pretreating rats with a specific xanthine oxidase inhibitor, sodium (-)-8-(3-methoxy-4-phenylsulfinylphenyl) pyrazolo[1,5-a]-1,3,5-triazine-4(1H)-one. It thus appears that pulmonary reexpansion activates xanthine oxidase in both endothelial and alveolar type II epithelial cells and that the reactive oxygen species produced by the enzyme induce apoptosis among the endothelial and alveolar type I and II epithelial cells that make up the pulmonary water-air barrier, leading to reexpansion pulmonary edema. 相似文献

Reexpansion of a collapsed lung increases the microvascular permeability and causes reexpansion pulmonary edema. Neutrophils and their products have been implicated in the development of this phenomenon. The small GTP-binding proteins Rho and its target Rho-kinase (ROCK) regulate endothelial permeability, although their roles in reexpansion pulmonary edema remain unclear. We studied the contribution of ROCK to pulmonary endothelial and epithelial permeability in a rabbit model of this disorder. Endothelial and epithelial permeability was assessed by measuring the tissue-to-plasma (T/P) and bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid-to-plasma (B/P) ratios with (125)I-labeled albumin. After intratracheal instillation of (125)I-albumin, epithelial permeability was also assessed from the plasma leak (PL) index, the ratio of (125)I-albumin in plasma/total amount of instilled (125)I-albumin. T/P, B/P, and PL index were significantly increased in the reexpanded lung. These increases were attenuated by pretreatment with Y-27632, a specific ROCK inhibitor. However, neutrophil influx, neutrophil elastase activity, and malondialdehyde concentrations in BAL fluid collected from the reexpanded lung were not changed by Y-27632. In endothelial monolayers, Y-27632 significantly attenuated the H(2)O(2)-induced increase in permeability and mitigated the morphological changes in the actin microfilament cytoskeleton of endothelial cells. These in vivo and in vitro observations suggest that the Rho/ROCK pathway contributes to the increase in alveolar barrier permeability associated with reexpansion pulmonary edema. 相似文献

We previously demonstrated that in vivo reperfusion of a dog lung after 48 h of pulmonary arterial (PA) ischemia results in pulmonary edema with a significant infiltrate of polymorphonuclear leukocytes. We hypothesized that the injury resulted from production of hydroxyl radical by activated neutrophils. In the current study, we attempted to prevent the injury in both dogs and rabbits with dimethylthiourea (DMTU), a scavenger of hydroxyl radical. After 48 h of left PA occlusion in 18 dogs, DMTU was administered to 9 animals and 9 were not treated. The occlusion was then released, and the dogs were killed 4 h later. Reperfusion resulted in a drop in leukocyte count and left lung edema, but there was no difference between treated and untreated animals. The wet-to-dry ratios of the lungs in the treated group were 5.76 +/- 0.44 (SE) on the reperfused left side and 4.50 +/- 0.06 (P less than 0.05) on the right side. In the untreated groups the comparable ratios were 5.73 +/- 0.31 and 4.92 +/- 0.10 (P less than 0.05 for right vs. left). Histological examination revealed significant differences between the right and left lungs in the extent of intra-alveolar granulocytes and macrophages but did not reveal differences between the treated and untreated animals. To ensure that neither the model nor the lack of response to DMTU was species specific, we then developed a rabbit model of reperfusion edema.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

This study examined the effects of lung collapse, a condition that causes relative hypoxia in lung tissues, on superoxide dismutase (SOD), cytochrome oxidase (cyt ox), and pyruvate kinase (py ki) activities in rabbits. Cyanide-insensitive respiration measurements were done in collapsed and contralateral lungs, as an index of intracellular free radical production. Rabbits' right lungs were collapsed for 7 days after which the animals were killed. We found that control rabbit lungs contained approximately 25 SOD units/mg DNA measured with 10(-5) M KCN (total SOD) and approximately 11 SOD units/mg DNA measured with 10(-3) M KCN (mitochondrial or MnSOD). Right lung collapse caused a 25% decrease in mitochondrial SOD activity after 7 days (P less than 0.05), whereas no significant changes occurred in right or left lungs' total SOD activity. In control rabbits cyt ox activity averaged approximately 0.009 mumol ferrocytochrome c.min-1.mg DNA-1. Right lung collapse caused a greater than 40% decrease in cyt ox activity after 7 days of collapse (P less than 0.05), whereas cyt ox activity in contralateral left lungs did not change. Pyruvate kinase activity, a marker for anaerobic glycolysis resulting from tissue hypoxia, increased 49% in collapsed right lungs (P less than 0.01). Cyanide-insensitive respiration was 83% higher in 7 day-collapsed lungs (2.28 +/- 0.66 microliters O2.min-1.g-1) compared with contralateral lungs (1.24 +/- 0.34, P less than 0.05), indicating increased O2-. and H2O2 production in this tissue after homogenization at normoxic PO2 (approximately 150 Torr).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We investigated whether ethchlorvynol (ECV)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) is associated with an increase in leukotriene C4 (LTC4) production. In six pentobarbital sodium-anesthetized dogs, ECV (15 mg/kg iv) introduced into the pulmonary circulation resulted in a 164 +/- 31% increase in extravascular lung water 120 min after ECV administration. Concomitantly, the mean (+/- SE) concentration of LTC4 in arterial plasma measured by radioimmunoassay following 80% EtOH precipitation, XAD-7 extraction and high-pressure liquid chromatography purification was 5.0 +/- 1.3 pg/ml, unchanged from control (pre-ECV) values. In contrast, in pulmonary edema fluid 120 min post-ECV, the LTC4 concentration was 35.2 +/- 10.8 pg/ml, sevenfold greater than those values found in the arterial plasma (P less than 0.01). In six additional dogs, 120 min after unilateral ALI had been induced with ECV (9 mg/kg iv), LTC4 in the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) of the uninjured lung was 12.1 +/- 1.5 pg/ml, unchanged from pre-ECV values, whereas, LTC4 in the BAL of the injured lung increased from a control value of 10.2 +/- 1.6 to 24.2 +/- 3.5 pg/ml (P less than 0.01) 120 min after ECV administration. These results demonstrate that, in ECV-induced acute lung injury, LTC4 concentrations in pulmonary edema fluid are considerably greater than those found in arterial plasma in the case of bilateral acute lung injury and significantly greater in the BAL of the injured lung compared with the uninjured lung in the case of unilateral acute lung injury. The results are a necessary first step in support of the hypothesis that leukotrienes participate in the altered permeability of ECV-induced acute lung injury. 相似文献

Acute pulmonary edema can be induced by phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Oxygen radicals released from the neutrophils have been considered to play an important role in the pathogenesis of PMA-induced pulmonary edema. In the present experiment, we studied the effect of dimethylthiourea (DMTU) on PMA-induced pulmonary injuries in isolated perfused lungs of rats. DMTU is a potent scavenger of the hydroxyl radical and hydrogen peroxide. PMA infusion into the isolated lung increased pulmonary arterial pressure (delta PAP) by 37.8 +/- 3.9 mmHg. The lung weight gain (LWG) and lavage albumin concentration (LAC) amounted to 6.2 +/- 1.2 g and 102.0 +/- 22.9 mg/dl, respectively. DMTU (100 mM) pretreatment significantly reduced the PAP increase (delta PAP = 4.6 +/- 0.8 mmHg, p less than 0.001), LWG (0.3 +/- 0.1 g, p less than 0.01) and LAC (25.3 +/- 1.7 mg/dl, p less than 0.01). Additional in vitro experiments demonstrated that DMTU depressed the chemiluminescence released from neutrophils activated by PMA (17.9 +/- 2.6 mV.min to 2.6 +/- 0.5 mV.min, p less than 0.01). The results suggest that DMTU, a scavenger of toxic radicals, decreases the lung edema through both attenuation of pulmonary hypertension and protection of vascular permeability from PMA injury. 相似文献

Histological studies provide evidence that the bronchial veins are a site of leakage in histamine-induced pulmonary edema, but the physiological importance of this finding is not known. To determine if a lung perfused by only the bronchial arteries could develop pulmonary edema, we infused histamine for 2 h in anesthetized sheep with no pulmonary arterial blood flow to the right lung. In control sheep the postmortem extravascular lung water volume (EVLW) in both the right (occluded) and left (perfused) lung was 3.7 +/- 0.4 ml X g dry lung wt-1. Following histamine infusion, EVLW increased to 4.4 +/- 0.7 ml X g dry lung wt-1 in the right (occluded) lung (P less than 0.01) and to 5.3 +/- 1.0 ml X g dry wt-1 in the left (perfused) lung (P less than 0.01). Biopsies from the right (occluded) lungs scored for the presence of edema showed a significantly higher score in the lungs that received histamine (P less than 0.02). Some leakage from the pulmonary circulation of the right lung, perfused via anastomoses from the bronchial circulation, cannot be excluded but should be modest considering the low pressures in the pulmonary circulation following occlusion of the right pulmonary artery. These data show that perfusion via the pulmonary arteries is not a requirement for the production of histamine-induced pulmonary edema. 相似文献

Investigation of the clearance of proteins from the air spaces is important for an understanding of the resolution of pulmonary edema and also because of current interest in delivery of therapeutic peptides via the distal air spaces. Few experimental studies have examined the size dependence for alveolar clearance of large macromolecules; there have been no human studies. In anesthetized rabbits, we measured clearance of cyanocobalamin and different-sized human proteins instilled into the air spaces. After 8 h, the amounts of instilled tracer recovered in the lungs were [57Co]cyanocobalamin, 19.4 +/- 3.0% (Stokes radius 0.65 nm); 125I-labeled insulin, 64.6 +/- 3.9% (1.2 nm); 131I-labeled albumin, 87.0 +/- 4.0% (3.5 nm); and 125I-labeled immunoglobulin G, 91.8 +/- 3.3% (5.5 nm) (P < 0.05). Sieving of different-sized proteins occurred across the alveolar epithelial barrier because tracer concentrations in air space lavage fluid after 8 h were decreased more for the smaller tracers than the larger ones. Size selectivity for alveolar protein clearance in humans with resolving alveolar edema was investigated by measuring the changes in albumin and total protein concentration. The fraction of total protein concentration made up of albumin was greater in the edema fluid than in the plasma initially. The albumin fraction decreased with time in 9 of 10 patients with resolving edema, from 0.62 +/- 0.2 to 0.58 +/- 0.10 (P < 0.05) after 10 +/- 5 h. Thus both rabbit studies and human studies provide evidence for size-dependent clearance of protein from the air spaces of the lung.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Parathyroid hormone-related protein (PTHrP) is a growth inhibitor for alveolar type II cells. Type II cell proliferation after lung injury from 85% oxygen is regulated, in part, by a fall in lung PTHrP. In this study, we investigated lung PTHrP after injury induced by >95% oxygen in rats and rabbits. In adult rats, lung PTHrP rose 10-fold over controls to 6,356 +/- 710 pg/ml (mean +/- SE) at 48 h of hyperoxia. Levels fell to 299 +/- 78 pg/ml, and staining for PTHrP mRNA was greatly reduced at 60 h (P < 0.05), the point of most severe injury and greatest pneumocyte proliferation. In adult rabbits, lung PTHrP peaked at 3,289 +/- 230 pg/ml after 64 h of hyperoxia with 24 h of normoxic recovery and then dropped to 1,629 +/- 153 pg/ml at 48 h of recovery (P < 0.05). Type II cell proliferation peaked shortly after the fall in PTHrP. In newborn rabbits, lavage PTHrP increased by 50% during the first 8 days of hyperoxia, whereas type II cell growth decreased. PTHrP declined at the LD(50), concurrent with increased type II cell division. In summary, lung PTHrP initially rises after injury with >95% hyperoxia and then falls near the peak of injury. Changes in PTHrP are temporally related to type II cell proliferation and may regulate repair of lung injury. 相似文献

Exposing rabbits for 1 h to 100% O2 at 4 atm barometric pressure markedly increases the concentration of thromboxane B2 in alveolar lavage fluid [1,809 +/- 92 vs. 99 +/- 24 (SE) pg/ml, P less than 0.001], pulmonary arterial pressure (110 +/- 17 vs. 10 +/- 1 mmHg, P less than 0.001), lung weight gain (14.6 +/- 3.7 vs. 0.6 +/- 0.4 g/20 min, P less than 0.01), and transfer rates for aerosolized 99mTc-labeled diethylenetriamine pentaacetate (500 mol wt; 40 +/- 14 vs. 3 +/- 1 x 10(-3)/min, P less than 0.01) and fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran (7,000 mol wt; 10 +/- 3 vs. 1 +/- 1 x 10(-4)/min, P less than 0.01). Pretreatment with the antioxidant butylated hydroxyanisole (BHA) entirely prevents the pulmonary hypertension and lung injury. In addition, BHA blocks the increase in alveolar thromboxane B2 caused by hyperbaric O2 (10 and 45 pg/ml lavage fluid, n = 2). Combined therapy with polyethylene glycol- (PEG) conjugated superoxide dismutase (SOD) and PEG-catalase also completely eliminates the pulmonary hypertension, pulmonary edema, and increase in transfer rate for the aerosolized compounds. In contrast, combined treatment with unconjugated SOD and catalase does not reduce the pulmonary damage. Because of the striking increase in pulmonary arterial pressure to greater than 100 mmHg, we tested the hypothesis that thromboxane causes the hypertension and thus contributes to the lung injury. Indomethacin and UK 37,248-01 (4-[2-(1H-imidazol-1-yl)-ethoxy]benzoic acid hydrochloride, an inhibitor of thromboxane synthase, completely eliminate the pulmonary hypertension and edema.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We examined the effects of leukotriene B4 (LTB4) on pulmonary hemodynamics and vascular permeability using isolated perfused guinea pig lungs and cultured monolayers of pulmonary arterial endothelial cells. In lungs perfused with Ringer solution, containing 0.5 g/100 ml albumin (R-alb), LTB4 (4 micrograms) transiently increased pulmonary arterial pressure (Ppa) and capillary pressure (Pcap). Pulmonary edema developed within 70 min after LTB4 injection despite a normal Pcap. The LTB4 metabolite, 20-COOH-LTB4 (4 micrograms), did not induce hemodynamic and lung weight changes. In lungs perfused with autologous blood hematocrit = 12 +/- 1%; protein concentration = 1.5 +/- 0.2 g/100 ml), the increases in Ppa and Pcap were greater, and both pressures remained elevated. The lung weight did not increase in blood-perfused lungs. In lungs perfused with R-alb (1.5 g/100 ml albumin) to match the blood perfusate protein concentration, LTB4 induced similar hemodynamic changes as R-alb (0.5 g/100 ml) perfusate, but the additional albumin prevented the pulmonary edema. LTB4 (10(-11)-10(-6) M) with or without the addition of neutrophils to the monolayer did not increase endothelial 125I-albumin permeability. Therefore LTB4 induces pulmonary edema when the perfusate contains a low albumin concentration, but increasing the albumin concentration or adding blood cells prevents the edema. The edema is not due to increased endothelial permeability to protein and is independent of hemodynamic alterations. Protection at higher protein-concentration may be the result of LTB4 binding to albumin. 相似文献

We previously reported that pulmonary arterial occlusion for 48 h followed by 4 h of reperfusion in awake dogs results in marked edema and inflammatory infiltrates in both reperfused and contralateral lungs (Am. Rev. Respir. Dis. 134: 752-756, 1986; J. Appl. Physiol. 63: 942-950, 1987). In this experiment we study the effects of alveolar hypoxia on this injury. Anesthetized dogs underwent thoracotomy and occlusion of the left pulmonary artery. Twenty-four hours later the dogs were reanesthetized, and a double-lumen endotracheal tube was placed. The right lung was continuously ventilated with an inspiratory O2 fraction (FIO2) of 0.35. In seven study animals the left lung was ventilated with an FIO2 of 0 for 3 h after the left pulmonary artery occluder was removed. In six control animals the left lung was ventilated with an FIO2 of 0.35 during the same reperfusion period. Postmortem bloodless wet-to-dry weight ratios were 5.87 +/- 0.20 for the left lower lobe and 5.32 +/- 0.12 for the right lower lobe in the dogs with hypoxic ventilation (P less than 0.05 for right vs. left lobes). These values were not significantly different from the control dog lung values of 5.94 +/- 0.22 for the left lower lobe and 5.11 +/- 0.07 for the right lower lobe (P less than 0.05 for right vs. left lobes). All values were significantly higher than our laboratory normal of 4.71 +/- 0.06. We conclude that reperfusion injury is unaffected by alveolar hypoxia during the reperfusion phase. 相似文献

Injection of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate (PMA) into polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN)-depleted, PMN cytoplast-repleted New Zealand White rabbits caused the development of acute lung injury in vivo. PMN cytoplasts are nucleus- and granule-free vesicles of cytoplasm capable of releasing toxic O2 radicals but incapable of releasing granule enzymes. PMN cytoplasts when activated by PMA reduced 66 +/- 12.7 nmol of cytochrome c compared with 2.6 +/- 0.7 nmol in their resting state and did not release a significant quantity of granule enzymes (P greater than 0.05). Injection of PMA into New Zealand White rabbits caused a significant decrease (P less than 0.05) in the number of circulating cytoplasts. Increases in lung weight-to-body weight ratios in PMA-treated rabbits (9.8 +/- 0.5 X 10(-3] compared with saline-treated rabbits (5.3 +/- 0.2 X 10(-3] were also noted. Levels of angiotensin-converting enzyme in lung lavage as well as the change in alveolar-arterial O2 ratio correlated with the numbers of cytoplasts in lung lavage (P = 0.001, r = 0.84 and P = 0.0166, r = 0.73, respectively). Albumin in lung lavage increased to 1,700 +/- 186 mg/ml in PMA-treated rabbits from 60 +/- 30 mg/ml in saline-treated rabbits. These changes were attenuated by pretreatment of rabbits with dimethylthiourea (DMTU). In vitro, cytoplasts were able to mediate increases in endothelial monolayer permeability. This was evidenced by increases in fractional transit of albumin across endothelial monolayers when treated with PMA-activated cytoplasts (0.08 +/- 0.01 to 0.28 +/- 0.02).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Ischemia and reperfusion of the ischemic lower torso lead to a neutrophil- (PMN) dependent lung injury characterized by PMN sequestration and permeability edema. This mimics the injury seen after infusion of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF), a potent activator of PMN and endothelium. This study tests whether TNF is a mediator of the lung injury after lower torso ischemia. Anesthetized rats underwent 4 h of bilateral hindlimb tourniquet ischemia, followed by reperfusion for 10 min, 30 min, 1, 2, 3, and 4 h (n = 6 for each time point). Quantitative lung histology indicated progressive sequestration of PMN in the lungs, 25 +/- 3 (SE) PMN/10 high-power fields (HPF) 10 min after reperfusion vs. 20 +/- 2 PMN/10 HPF in sham animals (NS), increasing to 53 +/- 5 PMN/10 HPF after 4 h vs. 23 +/- 3 PMN/10 HPF in sham animals (P less than 0.01). There was lung permeability, shown by increasing protein accumulation in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid, which 4 h after reperfusion was 599 +/- 91 vs. 214 +/- 35 micrograms/ml in sham animals (P less than 0.01). Similarly, there was edema, shown by the lung wet-to-dry weight ratio, which increased by 4 h to 4.70 +/- 0.12 vs. 4.02 +/- 0.17 in sham animals (P less than 0.01). There was generation of leukotriene B4 in BAL fluid (720 +/- 140 vs. 240 +/- 40 pg/ml, P less than 0.01), and in three of six rats tested at this time TNF was detected in plasma, with a mean value of 167 pg/ml. TNF was not detectable in any sham animal.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

We hypothesized that in unilateral lung injury, bilateral hypoxic ventilation would induce vasoconstriction in the normal lung, redirect blood flow to the injured lung, and cause enhanced edema formation. Unilateral left lung injury was induced by intrabronchial instillation of 1.5 ml/kg of 0.1 N HCl. After HCl injury, blood flow to the injured left lung decreased progressively from 0.70 +/- 0.04 to 0.37 +/- 0.05 l/min and percent of flow to the injured left lung (QL/QT) decreased from 37.7 +/- 2.2 to 23.6 +/- 2.2% at 240 min. Exposure to hypoxia (12% O2) for three 10-min episodes did not affect QL/QT in normal animals, but after unilateral HCl injury, it caused blood flow to the injured left lung to increase significantly. A concomitant decrease in blood flow occurred to the noninjured right lung, resulting in a significant increase in QL/QT. The enhanced blood flow to the injured lung was associated with a significant increase in the wet-to-dry lung weight ratio in the dependent regions of the injured lung. These findings demonstrate that in unilateral HCl-induced lung injury, transient hypoxia can enhance blood flow to the areas of injury and increase lung edema formation. 相似文献

We did two studies to see if severe neutropenia might reduce the severity or delay development of O2-induced lung microvascular injury. First, we treated 11 rabbits with nitrogen mustard until their circulating neurophil count decreased to less than 50/microliters of blood, after which the rabbits breathed pure O2 until death; nine other rabbits received no nitrogen mustard and had normal numbers of circulating neutrophils during O2 breathing. All rabbits died of respiratory failure with pulmonary edema, and although chemotherapy decreased the number of neutrophils in the lungs by greater than 90%, it did not influence survival time or extravascular lung water content. To see if severe neutropenia might slow the development of O2-induced lung microvascular injury, we assessed the effects of sustained hyperoxia on lung fluid balance in unanesthetized lambs treated with hydroxyurea, so that their absolute neutrophil count was less than 50/microliters of blood. We measured pulmonary arterial and left atrial pressures, cardiac output, lung lymph flow, and concentrations of protein in lymph and plasma during a 2- to 4-h control period and then daily for 2 to 4 h as the lambs continuously breathed pure O2. After 3 days of hyperoxia, lymph flow doubled and the concentration of protein in lymph increased from 3.3 +/- 0.5 to 4.2 +/- 0.3 g/dl. Tracer studies with 125I-albumin before and 3 days after the start of O2 breathing confirmed the development of increased lung vascular permeability to protein. All lambs died of respiratory failure with pulmonary edema after 3-5 days in O2.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Smoke inhalation can produce acute pulmonary edema. Previous studies have shown that the bronchial arteries are important in acute pulmonary edema occurring after inhalation of a synthetic smoke containing acrolein, a common smoke toxin. We hypothesized that inhalation of smoke from burning cotton, known to contain acrolein, would produce in sheep acute pulmonary edema that was mediated by the bronchial circulation. We reasoned that occluding the bronchial arteries would eliminate smoke-induced pulmonary edema, whereas occlusion of the pulmonary artery would not. Smoke inhalation increased lung lymph flow from baseline from 2.4 +/- 0.7 to 5.6 +/- 1.2 ml/0.5 h at 30 min (P < 0.05) to 9.1 +/- 1 ml/0.5 h at 4 h (P < 0.05). Bronchial artery ligation diminished and delayed the rise in lymph flow with baseline at 2.8 +/- 0.7 ml/0.5 h rising to 3.1 +/- 0. 8 ml/0.5 h at 30 min to 6.5 +/- 1.5 ml/0.5 h at 240 min (P < 0.05). Wet-to-dry ratio was 4.1 +/- 0.2 in control, 5.1 +/- 0.3 in smoke inhalation (P < 0.05), and 4.4 +/- 0.4 in bronchial artery ligation plus smoke-inhalation group. Smoke inhalation after occlusion of the right pulmonary artery resulted in a wet-to-dry ratio after 4 h in the right lung of 5.5 +/- 0.8 (P < 0.05 vs. control) and in the left nonoccluded lung of 5.01 +/- 0.7 (P < 0.05). Thus the bronchial arteries may be major contributors to acute pulmonary and airway edema following smoke inhalation because the edema occurs in the lung with the pulmonary artery occluded but not in the lungs with bronchial arteries ligated. 相似文献

To test the hypothesis that activity of respiratory muscles determines regional growth of lung parenchyma, we studied the effects of unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis on contralateral/ipsilateral lung growth in cats and piglets. Five 10- to 12-wk-old cats and five 8-wk-old piglets underwent unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis by thoracic and cervical phrenectomy, respectively. Five to seven weeks after surgery, when the cats were killed for studies of lung growth, gain in body weight was the same as in five sham-operated controls. At this time, mean pleural pressure ipsilateral to the paralyzed hemidiaphragm was the same as contralateral mean pleural pressure during tidal breathing, and values did not differ from controls. However overall functional residual capacity was lower in the phrenectomized cats (35 +/- 4 ml) than in the controls (55 +/- 11 ml, P less than 0.01). Growth of contralateral lungs relative to ipsilateral lungs was greater in the phrenectomized cats than in the controls, as shown by ratios of contralateral/ipsilateral wet lung weight (1.44 vs. 1.34, P less than 0.01), maximum inflation volume (1.53 vs. 1.33, P less than 0.05), and total protein content (1.45 vs. 1.26, P less than 0.05). Ratios of total protein to DNA and RNA to DNA were unchanged. One week after surgery in the piglets, the ratio of contralateral/ipsilateral wet lung weight was increased (1.61 vs. 1.29, P less than 0.01) and total weight of both lungs was reduced. We conclude that regional growth of lung parenchyma by cell proliferation depends in part on regional distribution of respiratory muscle activity. 相似文献

Unilateral pulmonary artery obstruction (PAO) for 24-48 h, followed by reperfusion, results in pulmonary edema and lung inflammation. We hypothesized that lung injury actually occurred during the period of PAO but, because of low microvascular pressures during the period of occlusion, was not detected until perfusion was reestablished. To test this hypothesis, we studied 14 rabbits divided into three groups: group I rabbits underwent sham occlusion of the left pulmonary artery for 24 h; group II rabbits underwent PAO but were not reperfused; and group III rabbits were subjected to PAO and then reperfused for 4 h. The fluid filtration coefficient measured during a zone 3 no-flow hydrostatic stress (pulmonary arterial pressure = pulmonary venous pressure, both greater than alveolar pressure) in group I lungs was less than that of lungs in either group II or III [0.52 +/- 0.02 (SE) ml.min-1.cmH2O.100 g wet wt-1 vs. 0.94 +/- 0.11 and 0.86 +/- 0.13 for groups II and III, respectively, P less than 0.05]. The wet-to-dry weight ratio of the left lung measured after the zone 3 stress was applied for 20 min was 6.90 +/- 0.09 in group I rabbits and 9.21 +/- 0.75 and 11.75 +/- 0.44 in groups II and III, respectively (P less than 0.05). Radiolabeled microspheres demonstrated that flow to the left lung was diminished after the period of PAO (38 +/- 4, 9 +/- 5, and 2 +/- 1% of cardiac output in groups I, II, and III, respectively; P less than 0.05 for group I vs. groups II and III).(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献
