Abstract:
Objective To investigate the expression of heat shock protein-70(HSP70)in acute lung injury induced by paraquat poisoning.Methods A total of 72 Wistar rats were randomly divided into 3 groups(n=24 each group)and intraperitoneally injected with normal saline in group A,20 mg/kg paraquat in group B,and 40 mg/kg paraquat in group C.The lungs of rats were excised 1,3,6,12,and 24 hours after the injection,respectively.The expression of HSP70 in the lung tissue was detected by immunohistochemistry and Western blot.Results Paraquat induced acute lung injury in groups B and C.In group B,the expression of HSP70 increased at 2 hours,reached the peak at 6 hours,decreased at 12 hours,and returned to the baseline level at 24 hours.In group C,the expression of HSP70 increased at 1 hour,reached the peak at 3 hours,and returned to the baseline level at 24 hours.Conclusion Paraquat-induced acute lung injury may contribute to the enhanced expression of HSP70 in the bronchus,bronchiole,and alveolar epithelial cells,which indicates that HSP70 has a protective effect on lung injury.
