Abstract:
AIM:To determine the expression of matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9),tissue inhibitor of me-talloproteinase-1(TIMP-1)and collagen type Ⅳ(Ⅳ-C)in the lung of rats with multiple organ dysfunction syndrome(MODS)and to investigate the mechanism of lung injury in MODS.METHODS:Adult male Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats(n=40)were randomly divided into sham control group and cecal ligation and puncture(CLP)model group.The rats in CLP group were divided into 4 subgroups as different intervals(6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h),and there were 8 rats in each group.The rat model of MODS was established by CLP.All rats were sacrificed at various intervals.The functions of the liver,kidney and lung were determined by blood biochemical and blood gas analysis.The morphological changes of the lung tissues were observed with HE staining.The serum levels of tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-α,interleukin(IL)-1β,MMP-9 and TIMP-1 were measured by ELISA.The expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the lung tissues was detected by RT-PCR and immunohistochemistry ,and the expression of Ⅳ-C in the lung tissues was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot.RESULTS:Compared with sham control group ,the functions of the liver ,kidney and lung were damaged at different degrees in model groups.No histopathological change in the lung tissues of sham control group was found ,and the lung injury was serious in model groups.Compared with sham control group ,the serum levels of TNF-α,IL-1β,MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in model groups increased significantly(P<0.05)and peaked at the interval of 12 ～24 h after modeling(P<0.01).The expression of MMP-9 and TIMP-1 in the lung tissues of model groups increased ,and peaked at 12 and 24 h,respectively(P<0.01).The protein level of Ⅳ-C in MODS 6 h group was not changed as compared with control group,while that at the interval of 12～48 h after modeling was significantly decreased and dropped to the lowest at 24 h(P<0.01).CONCLUSION:MMP-9 and TIMP-1 play important roles in lung injury of MODS rats by regulating the syn-thesis and decomposition of IV-C which is the main component of extracellular matrix.
