Abstract:
AIM: To explore the cytokines level and the discrepancy of reaction to dexamethasone (Dex) in ALI rats induced by hydrochloric acid (HCl) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS). METHODS: Ninety-six SD rats were divided into six groups at random (n=16 in each group): NS group, HCl group, LPS group, NS+Dex group, HCl+Dex group and LPS+Dex group. Every group was divided into two subgroups: the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) subgroup and no bronchoalveolar lavage (NBAL) subgroup. The total leukocytes, PMN%, macrophage%, lymphocyte%, total protein in BALF and the wet/dry of the lung weight were measured. The concentrations of TNF-?, IL-1?, IL-4 and IL-10 in serum and BALF in every group were compared. RESULTS: (1) In the groups of LPS and HCl, the total leukocytes, PMN numbers, the protein concentration in the BALF and W/D were higher than those in control group (P
