ABSTRACT
AIM:
To evaluate the role and mechanisms of recombinant human superoxide dismutase (rhSOD) in meconium-induced acute lung injury (ALI) by evaluating pulmonary MIP-1? and NF-?B expression.METHODS:
24 health male Sprage-Dawley rats were randomized to 3 groups (8, each group), followed by intratracheal (IT) administration with (1) saline at (1 mL/kg) (control group); (2) 20% human newborn meconium suspension at 1 mL/kg, followed by saline at 1 mL/kg (Mec/saline group); (3) 20% human newborn meconium suspension at 1mL/kg, followed by rhSOD at 20 mg/kg (Mec/rhSOD group). The animal was killed 24 h after treatment. The measurements included the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cell count, RT-PCR analysis of pulmonary MIP-1? mRNA expression, Western blotting analysis of pulmonary NF-?B expression.RESULTS:
Meconium-induced ALI was characterized by increased BAL cell count, increased expressions of pulmonary MIP-1? mRNA and NF-?B protein [(4.68?1.40)?10~9 cells/L vs (0.53?0.19)?10~9 cells/L, 3.60?0.75 vs 1.56?0.33, 0.72?0.31 vs 0.23?0.12, respectively in control rats, all P
