Inhaled nitric oxide attenuates acute lung injury via inhibition of nuclear factor-kappa B and inflammation.
The effect of inhaled nitric oxide (NO) on inflammatory process in acute lung injury (ALI) is unclear. The aims of this study were to 1) examine whether inhaled NO affects the biochemical lung injury parameters and cellular inflammatory responses and 2) determine the effect of inhaled NO on the activation of nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI. Compared w...
متن کاملInhaled nitric oxide attenuates pulmonary inflammation and fibrin deposition and prolongs survival in neonatal hyperoxic lung injury.
Administration of inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) is a potential therapeutic strategy to prevent bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD) in premature newborns with respiratory distress syndrome. We evaluated this approach in a rat model, in which premature pups were exposed to room air, hyperoxia, or a combination of hyperoxia and NO (8.5 and 17 ppm). We investigated the anti-inflammatory effects of prolon...
متن کاملAnesthetic Isoflurane Posttreatment Attenuates Experimental Lung Injury by Inhibiting Inflammation and Apoptosis
We investigated the effect of 1.4% isoflurane (ISO) on the development of inflammation and apoptosis caused by zymosan (ZY) in mice. We found that ZY-challenged mice exhibited significant body weight loss, markedly high mortality, and significant lung injury characterized by the deterioration of histopathology, histologic scores, and wet-to-dry ratio after ISO treatment. ISO dramatically attenu...
متن کاملInhaled nitric oxide attenuates reperfusion inflammatory responses in humans.
BACKGROUND Reduced bioavailability of endothelium-derived nitric oxide associated with reperfusion could potentially exacerbate the inflammatory response during reperfusion. Evidence suggests the pharmacologic effects of inhaled nitric oxide may extend beyond the pulmonary vasculature, and this is attributed to nitric oxide-derived complexes in blood that ultimately orchestrate antiinflammatory...
متن کاملThe therapeutic potential of nitric oxide in lung transplantation.
Endogenously produced oxides of nitrogen appear to play important roles in tissue and organ homeostasis. Endogenous production of nitric oxide, which can be altered in response to various stimuli, can modulate vascular tone, oxyradical cascades, cell adhesion, and other aspects of inflammation. Because exogenously administered (inhaled) nitric oxide can mediate pulmonary vasodilatation and impr...
