Abstract:
Objective To investigate the changes in the expression of mitochondrial transcription factor A (mtTFA) during one-lung ventilation (OLV)-induced lung injury in rabbits.Methods Sixty healthy male New Zealand white rabbits,weighing 2.5-3.0 kg,were randomized into 2 groups (n =8 each):two-lung ventilation (TLV) group and OLV group.The animals were anesthetized with iv 3％ pentobarbital sodium 30 mg/kg and tracheostomized.A self-made double lumen catheter was then intubated.Bilateral lungs were ventilated for 3 h in group TLN.In group OLV the left lung was ventilated for 2 h followed by 1 h TLV.Arterial blood samples were taken for blood gas analysis immediately after the beginning of ventilation,at 1 and 2 h of ventilation,and immediately after the end of ventilation.The oxygenation index was calculated.The animals were sacrificed after the end of ventilation and the apex of the left lung was removed and then cut and stained with HE for microscopic examination.The pathological changes of the lung were scored.The expression of mtTFA in lung tissues was measured by Western blot.Results Oxygenation index was significantly decreased,lung injury score was increased,the expression of mtTFA was down-regulated in group OLV compared with group TLV (P ＜ 0.05).The pathological changes of the lung were aggravated in group OLV.Conclusion OLV induces lung injury by down-regulation of mtTFA expression in rabbit lung tissues.
