    Abstract: Repetitive total lung lavage in adult rabbits leads to a reproducible severe surfactant-deficient lung injury. Hypoxemia requiring mechanical ventilation occurs, accompanied by a substantial pulmonary hypertension, a large intra-alveolar protein leak, peripheral neutropenia, and pathological features of marked neutrophil infiltration with extensive hyaline membrane formation. Pretreatment with indomethacin abolishes postlavage pulmonary hypertension, preserves a slightly better lung function with higher arterial PO2, and prevents the postlavage peripheral neutropenia found in untreated animals. Pretreatment with a thromboxane A2 receptor blocker (L 655,240, Merck Frosst, Canada) also completely attenuated pulmonary hypertension, providing evidence that thromboxane A2 mediates pulmonary arterial hypertension after lung lavage. However, specific thromboxane receptor blockade had no other long-lasting beneficial effects on the ongoing injury in this model.

    Abstract: Previous studies showed that repeated lung lavage leads to a severe lung injury with very poor gas exchange, a substantial protein leak into the alveoli with hyaline membrane formation, pulmonary hypertension, and migration of granulocytes (PMN) into the alveolar spaces. Depletion of PMN leads to a better gas exchange and a markedly decreased protein leak with only scanty hyaline membranes. In this study we show that there is sustained pulmonary hypertension after the lung lavage, but in PMN-depleted rabbits there is no postlavage increase in pulmonary arterial pressure. Changing the shunt fraction by manipulating mean airway pressure still leads to a hypoxic vasoconstriction with increase of pulmonary arterial pressure. Thus, after lung lavage, pulmonary reactivity to hypoxia is still preserved. Comparisons between high-frequency ventilation and conventional mechanical ventilation at the same mean airway pressures showed that equal mean airway pressure in these two very different modes of ventilation do not translate into the same mean functional lung volumes.

    Abstract: To explore the role of glutathione in protecting rats from hyperbaric hyperoxia, we administered buthionine sulfoximine (BSO) to block gamma-glutamyl cysteine synthase activity and decrease tissue glutathione synthesis. We then exposed these animals and their vehicle-treated matched controls to 100% oxygen at 4 ATA or room air at 1 ATA. After BSO treatment, glutathione concentrations in air-exposed controls decreased 62% in lung, 76% in liver, 28% in brain, and 62% in plasma. Paradoxically, BSO-treated rats were protected from hyperbaric hyperoxia. The BSO-treated animals seized significantly later and had a markedly prolonged time of survival compared with the vehicle-treated controls. We conclude that BSO treatment protects rats from hyperbaric hyperoxia, despite its effects of lowering plasma and tissue glutathione concentrations. This protection may be related to a direct effect of the compound in decreasing free radical-mediated tissue injury, increasing tissue antioxidant defenses, or increasing seizure threshold.

    Abstract: Single-lung transplantation after 3 h of hypothermic storage produces bilateral lung injury [pulmonary reimplantation response (PRR)]. We hypothesized that glutathione (GSH) hypothermic storage would protect both lungs from PRR for extended preservation times and that differences in injury and protection would be realized between the graft and the nontransplanted lung. Mongrel dogs underwent left single-lung autotransplantation after preservation for 5–6 h in Euro-Collins (EC) solution, EC plus exogenous GSH (EC+GSH), or Viaspan (VIA) at 4 degrees C. Lung injury was measured in both lungs after 1 h of reperfusion. EC dogs demonstrated significant increases in lung edema, lipid peroxidation, and alveolar neutrophil recruitment in the lung graft and to a less extent in the nontransplanted right lung compared with control dogs (P 〈 0.05). Edema, lipid peroxidation, and alveolar neutrophils were significantly reduced in both lungs from EC+GSH and VIA dogs compared with lungs from EC dogs (P 〈 0.05). An increase in large-pore permeability was measured in the lung graft from EC dogs compared with all other lungs. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid lactate dehydrogenase and total protein concentrations were elevated in both lungs from all three groups of tranplanted dogs compared with those of control dogs (P 〈 0.05). These data suggest that GSH-containing solutions attenuate the PRR after 6 h of ischemic hypothermic storage but that the protection is incomplete. Mechanisms of injury affecting the lung graft during the PRR appear to differ from those affecting the nontransplanted lung.
