Abstract: | AIM: In this study, the rat lung injury model was induced by ammonium chloride for studying the effect of imidapril on blood gas, serum TNF-α, IL-6 and MDA concentrations, and AngⅡ and CD54 protein expression in rat lung tissue. METHODS: Male rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: control group, lung injury model group and drug group. The rats in control group were given saline (2 mL/kg), while the rats in lung injury model group were given 6% ammonium chloride (2 mL/kg). In drug group, imidapril (3 mg·kg-1·d-1) was given to the rats once daily for 1 week by intragastric gavage after given 6% ammonium chloride. On the 7th day, the rats were anesthetized with 2% so-dium pentobarbital. Abdominal aorta blood, venous blood and lung tissue were collected. The blood gas indexes and serum TNF-α, IL-6 and MDA concentrations were determined. The lung tissues were fixed and sliced, and the expression of AngⅡ and CD54 proteins was detected by immunohistochemistry. RESULTS: The PaCO2 increased in lung injury model group compared with control group and drug group (P < 0.05).The expression of AngⅡ and CD54, and the concentrations of TNF-α, IL-6 and MDA also increased significantly (P < 0.01) in model group. Pulmonary edema, inflammation, alveolus congestion, hemorrhage and hyperplasia in model group were obvious compared with control group and drug group. CONCLUSION: Imidapril improves blood gas indexes, and reduces lipid peroxidation and inflammatory responses in the rats with lung injury induced by ammonium chloride. |
