To determine if hypoxia increases the permeability of the pulmonary capillaries of the visceral pleura, water and protein movement across visceral pleura of isolated blood-perfused lungs ventilated with 20% O2-5% CO2 or 0% O2-5% CO2 was analyzed in terms of a two-compartment model of fluid exchange. Lungs from mongrel dogs were enclosed in a water-impermeable membrane, thereby creating an artificial visceral pleural space (VPS); fluid flux was determined as the filtration or reabsorption of water and protein in the VPS. Hypoxic vasoconstriction was prevented by adding verapamil to the perfusate. Hydrostatic pressures were continuously monitored and samples of perfusate and pleural fluid were obtained for protein determinations. Pulmonary capillary pressure was varied between 5 and 20 Torr by changing venous pressure while the protein concentration gradient was varied from 0.5 to 6.6 g/dl by introducing different solutions of plasma mixed with saline into the VPS. The hydraulic conductivity (Lp) increased from 4.25 +/- 0.74 to 9.18 +/- 0.67 X 10(-7) ml X s-1 X mmHg-1 X cm-2 and the diffusional permeability (Pd) of protein increased from 1.29 +/- 0.28 to 4.06 +/- 0.44 X 10(-6) cm/s under hypoxic conditions (P less than 0.05). Inhibition of xanthine oxidase by the addition of allopurinol (10 mg/kg body wt) to the perfusate prevented the increase in Lp and Pd observed under hypoxic conditions. We conclude that free radicals generated via xanthine oxidase may be responsible for the increased permeability observed during severe hypoxia. 相似文献

The hydraulic conductivity (Lp) of the parietal pleura was measured in vivo in spontaneously breathing anesthetized dogs in either the supine (n = 8) or the prone (n = 7) position and in an excised portion of the chest wall in which the pleura and its adjacent tissue were intact (n = 3). A capsule was glued to the exposed parietal pleura after the intercostal muscles were removed. The capsule was filled with either autologous plasma or isotonic saline. Transpleural fluid flow (V) was measured at several transpleural hydrostatic pressures (delta P) from the rate of meniscus movement within a graduated pipette connected to the capsule. Delta P was defined as the measured difference between capsule and pleural liquid pressures. The Lp of the parietal pleura was calculated from the slope of the line relating V to delta P by use of linear regression analysis. Lp in vivo averaged 1.36 X 10(-3) +/- 0.45 X 10(-3) (SD) ml.h-1.cmH2O-1.cm-2, regardless of whether the capsule was filled with plasma or saline and irrespective of body position. This value was not significantly different from that measured in the excised chest wall preparation (1.43 X 10(-3) +/- 1.1 X 10(-3) ml.h-1.cmH2O-1.cm-2). The parietal pleura offers little resistance to transpleural protein movement, because there was no observed difference between plasma and saline. We conclude that because the Lp for intact parietal pleura and extrapleural interstitium is approximately 100 times smaller than that previously measured in isolated stripped pleural preparations, removal of parietal pleural results in a damaged preparation. 相似文献

The mechanism of compensatory growth and healing of the pleura remains unresolved. Contralateral visceral and parietal (diaphragmatic and costal) pleura were investigated by transmission electron microscopy, following an experimental pneumonectomy (EP). Fifteen young-adult Wistar rats were divided into three groups and with survival times of 1, 5 and 8 days respectively after EP. Three sham-operated (thoracic cavity opened and closed) and three unoperated rats served as controls. One day following EP the superficial mesothelial cells have more microvilli and microvesicles, but a lower number of specialized contacts. Multiplication of extravasal cells leads to an increase of the thickness of the layer over the basal lamina and of the submesothelial layer. Five days after EP the superficial cells show a stratified arrangement in longer sectors of both pleural sheets. Along with typical mesothelial cells there are three new populations of cells: (1) with an abundant granular endoplasmic reticulum and secretory granules, (2) with fibroblast-like characteristics and (3) with a more extensive lysosomal system. The submesothelial layer is thickened due to newly formed blood vessels and collagen bundles. Eight days after EP the mesothelial cells build multi-row arrangement sectors and surround intercellular dilatations covered with microvilli. 'Activated' high mesothelial cells characterize the monolayer sectors. The submesothelial layer remains thicker due to larger collagen bundles and elastic fibers. The changes in the mesothelium and in the connective tissue layer suggest the existence of two periods. The first one is characterized by different mesothelial cell populations, new vasculogenesis and starting of fibrillogenesis. In the second period there are 'activated' mesothelial cells, pleural villi, groups of lymphatic lacunae and significant fibrillogenesis. 相似文献

Transcapillary Starling forces in the parietal pleura and the underlying interstitium may potentially contribute to the exchange of fluid across this barrier. However, the extent of blood flow to the parietal pleura has not been measured. Thus, using standard microsphere techniques, we compared blood flow to the parietal pleura, including the subpleural interstitium, with blood flow to the adjacent internal intercostal muscle, as well as with flows to other serous tissues, including mediastinal pleura, pericardium, and parietal peritoneum, in anesthetized dogs that were either breathing spontaneously (n = 9) or ventilated to control arterial PCO2 (n = 5). Blood flow (ml.min-1.g-1) was measured after 20 min of equilibration in four successive body positions: right lateral decubitus, supine, left lateral decubitus, and prone. Overall, flow to parietal pleura was not different in spontaneous [1.07 +/- 0.14 (SE)] and mechanically ventilated animals (0.74 +/- 0.11). Flow to the internal intercostal muscle was significantly less than pleural blood flow, averaging 0.24 +/- 0.03 and 0.16 +/- 0.03 in the same groups, although again there was no effect of ventilation mode. Blood flow to other serous tissues in the thoracic cavity, specifically the mediastinal pleura (0.67 +/- 0.14) and pericardium (0.88 +/- 0.22), was similar to parietal pleural flow, whereas that to the parietal peritoneum was an order of magnitude lower (0.09 +/- 0.02, P less than 0.05). Changing body position had no effect on blood flow to any of the sampled tissues. Blood flow to the dorsal aspect of the chest wall muscle in spontaneously breathing animals tended to be greater than that to lateral or ventral portions of the chest wall.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Pseudoelasticity of excised visceral pleura 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A pseudostrain-energy function is proposed for describing the behavior of excised sheets of canine visceral pleura. Pseudoelastic material constants are determined from experimental biaxial data by employing a nonlinear least-squares algorithm. The agreement between theory and experiment is shown to be quite good. Furthermore, the visceral pleura studied appears to be inelastic and to exhibit in-plane isotropy. Comparison with previous works is discussed. 相似文献

Cultures were made of mesothelial cells obtained by scraping the parietal pleura of the adult rats. The growth was restricted to close polyhedric epithelial-like cells, forming a monolayer. The cellular proliferation continued until the 7th day, followed by a stationary phases. In subcultures the mesothelial cells kept their epithelial type. The cultures were stopped on the 20th day. 相似文献

The parameters describing the permeability of the parietal pleura to liquid and total plasma proteins were measured in five anesthetized adult dogs. Small areas of parietal pleura (approximately 1 cm2) and the underlying endothoracic fascia were exposed through resection of the skin and the intercostal muscles. The portion of the thorax containing the pleural windows was removed from the chest and fixed over a bath of whole autologous plasma, the inner parietal pleural surface facing the bath. Small hemispheric Perspex capsules (surface area 0.28 cm2) connected to a pressure manometer were glued to the pleural windows; a subatmospheric pressure was set into the capsule chamber to create step hydraulic transpleural pressure gradients (delta P) ranging from 5 to 60 cmH2O. Transpleural liquid flows (Jv) and protein concentration of the capsular filtrate (Cfilt) and of the plasma bath were measured at each delta P. The transpleural protein flux (Js) at each delta P was calculated by multiplying Jv by the corresponding Cfilt. The hydraulic conductivity (Lp) of the parietal pleura was obtained from the slope of the Jv vs. delta P linear regression. The average Lp from 14 capsules was 9.06 +/- 4.06 (SD) microliters.h-1.cmH2O-1.cm-2. The mathematical treatment of the Js vs. Jv relationship allowed calculation of the unique Peclet number at the maximal diffusional protein flux and a corresponding osmotic permeability coefficient for plasma protein of 1 x 10(-5) +/- 0.97 x 10(-5) cm/s. The reflection coefficient calculated from the slope of the linear phase of the Js vs. Jv relationship was 0.11 +/- 0.05.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

BackgroundVisceral leishmaniasis (VL) is a zoonotic protozoal vector-borne disease that is a major public health challenge. In Argentina, canine (CVL) and human visceral leishmaniasis (HVL) have recently emerged. There is a lack of standardised diagnostic tests for CVL, which hinders control of CVL and HVL.Methodology/Principal findingsSampling was carried out in Puerto Iguazú, Argentina, comprising 190 asymptomatic, oligosymptomatic and polysymptomatic dogs. The following diagnostics were applied: microscopy of lymph node aspirate (LNA); three immunochromatographic rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs), prototype rK28-ICT, rK39-ICT (both Coris BioConcept), commercial rK39 (InBios); ELISA for IgG, IgG1 and IgG2, against rK28, rK39 or crude lysate antigen. DNA detection and analysis, with 30 dogs, was of the ITS1 region using skin samples, and loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP; Eiken Loopamp) of buffy coat, skin scrape or LNA. 15.4% of dogs were positive by LNA microscopy. The rK28 RDT had higher seropositivity rate (61%) than either a prototype rK39 RDT (31.4%) or commercial rK39 RDT (18.8%), without cross-reactivity with six other pathogens. IgG anti-rK39 ELISA antibody titres, but not IgG2, were positively correlated with number of clinical signs. LAMP with LNA had a higher positivity rate than PCR; buffy coat sampling was more sensitive than skin scrape. ITS1 confirmed Leishmania (Leishmania) infantum as the agent of CVL. Leishmania (Viannia) spp. was detected in skin samples from two dogs, compatible with Leishmania (Viannia) braziliensis.Conclusions/SignificanceSeroprevalence confirmed rapid increase in CVL in Puerto Iguazú. The rK28 RDT test potentially has great value for improved point-of-care diagnosis. Given cost reduction and accessibility, commercial LAMP may be applicable to buffy coat. RDT biomarkers of CVL clinical status are required to combat spread of CVL and HVL. The presence of Viannia, perhaps as an agent of human mucocutaneous leishmaniasis (MCL), highlights the need for vigilance and surveillance. 相似文献

Types of synaptic contacts and peculiarities of their distribution in the neuropil of the parietal and visceral ganglia of the edible snail (Helix pomatia) CNS have been studied electron microscopically. Ultrastructure of dendrites and axons has been identified. Dendrites with spinous++ processes, polymorphism of synaptic contacts have been revealed. Besides axo-axonal synapses, axo-dendritic synapses are demonstrated on the trunks and on the spinous processes of the dendrites, as well as dendro-dendritic and serial synapses. Unevenness in distribution of synaptic contacts is shown in the neuropil. The areas of the greatest concentration of the synapses are the "synaptic fields". Peculiarities in distribution of the synaptic contacts are demonstrated in the parietal and visceral ganglia. 相似文献

Background
Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) 2 and 9 are two gelatinase members which have been found elevated in exudative pleural effusions. In endothelial cells these MMPs increase paracellular permeability via the disruption of tight junction (TJ) proteins occludin and claudin. In the present study it was investigated if MMP2 and MMP9 alter permeability properties of the pleura tissue by degradation of TJ proteins in pleural mesothelium.Results
In the present study the transmesothelial resistance (RTM) of sheep pleura tissue was recorded in Ussing chambers after the addition of MMP2 or MMP9. Both enzymes reduced RTM of the pleura, implying an increase in pleural permeability. The localization and expression of TJ proteins, occludin and claudin-1, were assessed after incubation with MMPs by indirect immunofluorescence and western blot analysis. Our results revealed that incubation with MMPs did not alter neither proteins localization at cell periphery nor their expression.Conclusions
MMP2 and MMP9 increase the permeability of sheep pleura and this finding suggests a role for MMPs in pleural fluid formation. Tight junction proteins remain intact after incubation with MMPs, contrary to previous studies which have shown TJ degradation by MMPs. Probably MMP2 and MMP9 augment pleural permeability via other mechanisms.20.

The extraembryonic endoderm of mammals is essential for nutritive support of the fetus and patterning of the early embryo. Visceral and parietal endoderm are major subtypes of this lineage with the former exhibiting most, if not all, of the embryonic patterning properties. Extraembryonic endoderm (XEN) cell lines derived from the primitive endoderm of mouse blastocysts represent a cell culture model of this lineage, but are biased towards parietal endoderm in culture and in chimeras. In an effort to promote XEN cells to adopt visceral endoderm character we have mimicked different aspects of the in vivo environment. We found that BMP signaling promoted a mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition of XEN cells with up-regulation of E-cadherin and down-regulation of vimentin. Gene expression analysis showed the differentiated XEN cells most resembled extraembryonic visceral endoderm (exVE), a subtype of VE covering the extraembryonic ectoderm in the early embryo, and during gastrulation it combines with extraembryonic mesoderm to form the definitive yolk sac. We found that laminin, a major component of the extracellular matrix in the early embryo, synergised with BMP to promote highly efficient conversion of XEN cells to exVE. Inhibition of BMP signaling with the chemical inhibitor, Dorsomorphin, prevented this conversion suggesting that Smad1/5/8 activity is critical for exVE induction of XEN cells. Finally, we show that applying our new culture conditions to freshly isolated parietal endoderm (PE) from Reichert's membrane promoted VE differentiation showing that the PE is developmentally plastic and can be reprogrammed to a VE state in response to BMP. Generation of visceral endoderm from XEN cells uncovers the true potential of these blastocyst-derived cells and is a significant step towards modelling early developmental events ex vivo. 相似文献
