Induction of acute respiratory distress syndrome in rats by lipopolysaccharide and its effect on oxidative stress and antioxidant status in lung.

چکیده
Acute lung injury (ALI) or its severe form, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an important cause of mortality in the human population. Despite significant advances made, the mortality associated with ALI remains unchanged. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the role of oxidative stress, alveolar antioxidant status and multiple organ injury in ARDS induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in rats. Rats were divided into 4 groups, group I control rats were given saline intraperitoneally, whereas groups II, III and IV (LPS-treated) rats received an intraperitoneal injection of LPS (10 mg/kg body weight) and sacrificed after various time intervals. In LPS-treated rats, we observed increased levels of oxidative products, decreased levels of antioxidants in lung tissues and increased levels of serum marker enzymes, suggesting multiple organ injury. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) neutrophil content and protein concentration in LPS-treated rats were significantly elevated in a time-dependent manner. Histological studies revealed neutrophil influx and diffused alveolar damage in LPS-administered rats. These results clearly suggested that increased oxidant levels led to oxidative stress, antioxidant deficiency attenuating lung inflammation and tissue damage. LPS administration resulted in multiple organ failure, leading to increased mortality.

Objective(s): Acute lung injury (ALI) has a high mortality rate and is characterized by damage to pulmonary system giving rise to symptoms such as histological alteration, lung tissue edema and production of proinflammatory cytokine. p-Coumaric acid (p-CA), as a phenolic compound, that is found in many types of fruits and vegetables has been reported to exhibit a thera...

Severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes COVID-19 could progress to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The immune cells' migration in response to virus lead to cell death by releasing oxidizing free radicals. These oxidizing free radicals mediate NF-κB activation and induce transcription of cytokine-producing genes that eventually a cytokine storm ensues...

Objective(s):Therapies with high levels of oxygen are commonly used in the management of critical care. However, prolonged exposure to hyperoxia can cause acute lung injury. Although oxidative stress and inflammation are purported to play an important role in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury, the exact mechanisms are still less known in the hyperoxic acute lung injury (HALI).

متن کاملValidity of Spo2/Fio2 Ratio in Detection of Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Introduction: One ofdiagnostic criteria for Acute Lung Injury and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome is pao2/fio2 (PF) ratio 300 for ALI or 200 for ARDS. This criteria requires invasive arterial sampling. Measurement of Spo2/Fio2 (SF) ratio by pulseoximetry may be a reliable non invasive alternative to the PF ratio. Methods and Materials: In a cross sectional study we enrolled 105 sample o...
