BACKGROUND Toll-like receptors (TLRs) represent a conserved family of innate immune recognition receptors. Among TLRs, TLR4 is important for the recognition of Gram-negative bacteria, whereas TLR2 recognizes cell wall constituents of Gram-positive microorganisms, such as peptidoglycan (PGN). METHODS To evaluate the role of TLR4 in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury induced by Escherichia c...
Glucocorticoids aggravate hyperoxia-induced lung injury through decreased nuclear factor- B activity
We previously reported that exposure of mice to hyperoxia is characterized by extensive lung cell necrosis and apoptosis, mild inflammatory response, and elevated circulating levels of corticosterone. Administration of hydroxycortisone acetate during hyperoxia aggravated lung injury. Using adrenalectomized (ADX) and sham-operated (sham) mice, we studied the role of the glucocorticoids in hypero...
The transcriptional factor p53 has primarily been characterized for its central role in the regulation of oncogenesis. A reciprocal relationship between the activities of p53 and NF-kappaB has been demonstrated in cancer cells, but there is little information concerning interactions between p53 and NF-kappaB in inflammatory processes. In this study, we found that neutrophils and macrophages lac...
Initiation of coagulation by tissue factor (TF) is a potentially powerful regulator of local inflammatory responses. We hypothesized that blockade of TF-factor VIIa (FVIIa) complex would decrease lung inflammation and proinflammatory cytokine release after tracheal instillation of Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS 0111:B4). At the time of injury, rats received one dose of site-inactivate...
Despite advancements in renal replacement therapy, the mortality rate for acute kidney injury (AKI) remains unacceptably high, likely due to remote organ injury. Kidney ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) activates cellular and soluble mediators that incite a distinct pulmonary proinflammatory and proapoptotic response. Tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1) has been identified as a prominent d...
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) contains unmethylated CpG motifs that exhibit immune stimulatory capacities. The aim of this study was to investigate whether mtDNA activates the Toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9)/nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB) pathway, thereby contributing to post-traumatic systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and lung injury in rats. The effects of mtDNA on macrophage culture were exa...
Zinc is an essential element that facilitates coordination of immune activation during the host response to infection. We recently reported that zinc deficiency increases systemic inflammation, vital organ damage, and mortality in a small animal model of sepsis. To investigate potential mechanisms that cause these phenomena, we used the same animal model and observed that zinc deficiency increa...
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a major cause of mortality in burn patients, even without direct inhalational injury. Identification of early mediators that instigate ALI after burn and of the molecular mechanisms by which they work are of high importance but remain poorly understood. We previously reported that an endogenous neuropeptide, substance P (SP), via binding neurokinin-1 receptor (NK1R), ...
