Abstract:
Objective To observe the dynamic changes of heme oxygenase 1,NAD(P)H:quinine oxidoreductase 1 and Nuclear factor-E2-related factor 2 in the lung tissue of acute H2S-intoxicated rats and intervention effects of ulinastratin(UTI).Methods A total of 96 SD rats of clean grade were divided randomly(random number)into four groups:normal control group(NS group,n =8),UTI control group(UTI group,n =8),H2S-intoxicated model group(H2S group,n =40,rats were exposed to H2S(200 × 10-6)for 1 h to establish the H2S-intoxicated model)and UTI treatment group(H2S +UTI group,n =40,rats were intraperitoneal injected with the dose of UTI 105 U/kg).H2S group and H2S + UTI group were sacrificed 2,6,12,24 and 48 h after modeling.The activity and mRNA expression of HO-1 and NQO-1 in the lung tissue were measured by ELISA and RT-PCR methods,and the expression of Nrf2 mRNA and protein in the lung tissue was detected by RT-PCR and Western Blot methods.Pathological changes of lung tissue were observed by lightmicroscope and the lung injury score was used to evaluate inhalation injury.Results The pulmonary HO-1 activity and mRNA expression in rats of H2S group at 2,6,12 h(P < 0.01)after intoxication were markedly increased than that in NS group:In comparison with H2S group,the pulmonary HO-1 activity and mRNA expression increased at 6,12,24,48 h(P <0.01).The pulmonary NQO-1 activity and mRNA expression in rats of H2S group at 2,6,12,24 h(P< 0.01)after intoxication were markedly increased than that in NS group; In comparison with H2S group,the pulmonary NQO-1 activity and mRNA expression increased at 6,12,24,48 h(P < 0.01).The pulmonary Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression in rats of H2S group at 2,6,12 h(P <0.01 or P <0.05)after modeling were markedly increased than that in NS group and reached peak 2 hour after modeling; In comparison with H2S group,the pulmonary Nrf2 mRNA and protein expression increased at 6,12,24,48 h(P <0.01).At 24 h after modeling,the degree of lung damage were also decreased in H2S group compared with H2S + UTI group in the lightmicroscope.Histopathological examination showed that the degree of lung injury in H2S + UTI group was less severe than that in H2S group especially in the 12,24 and 48 h (P <0.01).Conclusions HO-1,NQO-1 and Nrf2 are involved in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury induced by H2S-intoxicated in rats.UTI may improve the imbalance in redox and activate HO-1,NQO-1 and Nrf2 can reduce lung injury and protect the lung injury induced by H2S in rats.
