The protective effect of perfluorocarbon on the injury of alveolar epithelial cells induced by lipopolysaccharide / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the effects of perfluorocarbon (PFC) on the damaged type Ⅱ alveolar epithelial cells (AEC Ⅱ) induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS),and the apoptosis and inflammatory reaction of AEC Ⅱ induced by LPS.Methods Primary AEC Ⅱ was divided into control group according to the random number table method,LPS group,PFC group and PFC + LPS group.LPS groupLPS (1 μg/ml) was added to cells.PFC groupPFC (20％) was added to cells.PFC + LPS groupPFC (20％) and LPS (1 μg/ml) were added to cells.The apoptotic rate of AEC Ⅱ was detected by flow cytometry.Morphologic change was observed by electron microscope.Concentrations of intedeukin (IL)-6 and IL-10 of supernatant were detected by ELISA.Results Apoptotic rate of AEC Ⅱ remarkably increased in LPS group than in control grouop [(10.89 ± 1.04) ％ vs (14.29 ± 1.93) ％] (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with LPS group,the apoptotic rate of AEC Ⅱ decreased remarkably in the PFC + LPS group [(12.22 ± 1.47) ％],(P ＜ 0.05).IL-6 production of AEC Ⅱ significantly increased in LPS group than in control group [(482.58 ± 26.84) vs (229.40 ± 7.61) pg/ml pg/ml] (P ＜ 0.05),while decreased in PFC + LPS group [(265.44 ± 29.95) pg/ml].IL-10 production of AEC Ⅱ significantly increased in LPS group than in control group [(1 497.29 ±191.89) pg/ml vs (725.87 ±51.83) pg/ml] (P ＜0.05),while there was no difference between LPS group and PFC + LPS group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion PFC can protect AEC Ⅱ against the injury induced by LPS.PFC can also release the level of inflammatory response.
