Abstract:
Objective The aim of present study was to observe the correlation between flagellin and tumor necrosis factor ?(TNF-?)in rats with sepsis-induced acute lung injury(ALI).Methods A total of 120 male healthy Wistar rats were randomly assigned into 2 groups:sepsis group which was reproduced by cecal ligation and puncture(CLP),and sham operated group which underwent laparotomy only.All the indexes were observed at the time points of 2h,4h,6h,12h,24h and 48h after operation.Changes in partial pressure of oxygen in artery(PaO2)were determined by blood gas analysis.Pathological changes in pulmonary-tissue were observed by light microscopy.The levels of flagellin in serum,bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and pneumono-homogenate,as well as TNF-? of serum,were determined by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA).Results Rats with acute lung injury induced by sepsis was successfully reproduced.The PaO2 of sepsis group significantly decreased at 12h after injury and reached the lowest point at 48h after injury.PaO2 of sepsis group was remarkably lower than that of sham operated group at the time points of 12h,24h and 48h after injury(P
