Abstract
Hemeoxygenase-1 induction in response to adverse circulatory conditions is protective. Our recent study has shown that administration of sirtinol attenuates hepatic injury in male Sprague-Dawley rats after trauma-hemorrhage; however, the mechanism by which sirtinol produces the salutary effects remains unknown. We hypothesized that sirtinol administration in male Sprague-Dawley rats after trauma-hemorrhage decreases cytokine production and protects against lung injury through a hemeoxygenase-1 related pathway. Male Sprague-Dawley rats (n = 8 per group) underwent trauma-hemorrhage (mean arterial blood pressure 40 mm Hg for 90 min, then resuscitation). A single dose of sirtinol (1 mg/kg of body weight) with or without a hemeoxygenase enzyme inhibitor (chromium-mesoporphyrin) or vehicle was administered IV during resuscitation. Twenty-four hours thereafter, myeloperoxidase activity (a marker of neutrophil sequestration) and tumor necrosis factor α, interleukin-6, and interleukin-10 levels in the lung, protein concentrations in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and tissue histology were measured. Lung hemeoxygenase-1 protein level was also determined. In the sirtinol-treated rats subjected to trauma-hemorrhage, there were significant improvements in lung myeloperoxidase activity (4.68 ± 0.31 vs 9.36 ± 1.03 U/mg protein, P CONCLUSION: The salutary effects of sirtinol administration on attenuation of lung inflammation after trauma-hemorrhage are mediated via upregulation of hemeoxygenase-1 expression.Keywords
