Complement 3 is involved with ventilator-induced lung injury.
Humoral molecules can trigger injury on mechanically stressed and damaged tissue. We have studied the role of complement 3 (C3) in a mouse model of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). Compared with sham-treated wild type (WT) mice, ventilated WT mice have reduced total bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) cells; and elevated activities of thrombin and matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), such as gelati...

متن کاملVentilator-induced lung injury.
Severe physical-trauma can lead to the development of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Currently, the only known treatment for ARDS is mechanical ventilation. However, if mechanical ventilation is applied inappropriately further injury and malfunction of the lungs may occur, and thus, causing a ventilator induced lung injury (VILI). VILI has several manifestations including volutraum...
متن کاملVentilator-induced lung injury.
The clinical relevance of experimental ventilator-induced lung injury has recently received a resounding illustration by the Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Network trial that showed a 22% reduction of mortality in patients with acute respiratory disease syndrome when lung mechanical stress was lessened by tidal volume reduction during mechanical ventilation. This clinical confirmation of t...
متن کاملNitric oxide synthase 3 contributes to ventilator-induced lung injury.
Nitric oxide synthase (NOS) depletion or inhibition reduces ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), but the responsible mechanisms remain incompletely defined. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of endothelial NOS, NOS3, in the pathogenesis of VILI in an in vivo mouse model. Wild-type and NOS3-deficient mice were ventilated with high-tidal volume (HV(T); 40 ml/kg) for 4 h, with and ...
