Abstract:
Objective To investigate both in mechanism of hyperoxia-induced acute lung injury (HALI) by vivo experiment,to observe the Bruton' s tyrosine kinase (Btk) and nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signals expression level.Methods Total of 72 healthy male Kunming mice were randomly (random number) divided into four groups:air control group,hyperoxia exposure 3 days group (H3d group),hyperoxia exposure 3 days + inhibitor group (H3d + Ⅰ group) and inhibitor groups.Then the pathological changes of lung tissues were observed under light microscope;The total protein content (TP) of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and wet/dry weight ratio (W/D) of lung were detected;The protein expression of Btk,p-Btk,pNF-κB p65 were mersured by Western blot;tlhe mRNA level of IL-6 was determined by real-time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR);the level of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) in serum was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).Statistcal significance was determined by 1-way ANOVA.Results There were no significant difference in the data between the control group and the inhibitor group (P ＞ 0.05).The pathological injury in light microscope,content of total protein in BALF,W/D ratio of lung tissues in H3d group were significantly higher than H3d + Ⅰ group (Respectively P =O.002,P =0.000).Western blot analysis showed that expression of Btk,p-Btk,pNF-κB p65 in H3d group were significantly higher than those in H3d + Ⅰ group (Respectively P =0.002,P =0.013,P =0.000).RT-qPCR results showed that the expression of IL-6 mRNA in H3d group were significantly higher than control group (P =0.004),inhibitor group (P =0.000) and H3d + Ⅰ group (P =0.021).In addition,The serum MCP-1 levels in H3d group were higher markely than the control group (P =0.002),inhibitor group (P =0.000) and H3d + Ⅰ group (P =0.009).The correlation analysis showed that pNF-κB p65 were positively correlated wiht Btk and p-Btk (r =0.902 and 0.954,P ＜ 0.01).Conclusions Btk may trigger the release of IL-6 and MCP-1 by mediating the signaling pathway of NF-κB in vivo study,which was most important in the occurrence of HALI.Therefore,inhibiting the Btk activity would alleviate the severity of lung injury effectively.
