Nogo-B protects mice against lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury
Nogo-B, a member of the reticulon 4 protein family, plays a critical role in tissue repair and acute inflammation. Its role in acute lung injury (ALI) remains unclear. Here, we assessed the function of Nogo-B during tissue injury in a lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mouse model. We found that pulmonary Nogo-B was significantly repressed after LPS instillation in C57BL/6 mice. Over-expressi...
متن کاملGalantamine protects against lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury in rats.
Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced endotoxemia triggers the secretion of proinflammatory cytokines and can cause acute lung injury (ALI). The high mobility group box 1 (HMGB1) protein plays an important role as a late mediator of sepsis and ALI. Galantamine (GAL) is a central acetylcholinesterase inhibitor that inhibits the expression of HMGB1. This study evaluated the effects of GAL by measuring...
متن کاملTime-dependent changes of autophagy and apoptosis in lipopolysaccharide-induced rat acute lung injury
Objective(s): Abnormal lung cell death including autophagy and apoptosis is the central feature in acute lung injury (ALI). To identify the cellular mechanisms and the chronology by which different types of lung cell death are activated during lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI, we decided to evaluate autophagy (by LC3-II and autophagosome) and apoptosis (by caspase-3) at different time point...
متن کاملHydrogen inhalation ameliorates lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury in mice.
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a serious illness, the incidence and mortality of which are very high. Free radicals, such as hydroxyl radicals (OH) and peroxynitrite (ONOO(-)), are considered to be the final causative molecules in the pathogenesis of ALI. Hydrogen, a new antioxidant, can selectively reduce OH and ONOO(-). In the present study, we investigated the hypothesis that hydrogen inhalation...
متن کاملSalidroside Protects Lipopolysaccharide-Induced Acute Lung Injury in Mice
Salidroside (SDS) has been reported to have anti-inflammatory properties. The objective of this study was to investigate the protective effect of SDS on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice. BALB/c mice were pretreated with SDS 1 hour before intranasal instillation of LPS. Seven hours after LPS administration, the myeloperoxidase in histology of lungs, lung wet/dry r...
