Abstract

Background : Aquaporins (AQPs) may play a role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary inflammation and edema. This study investigated the role ofAQPs in acute lung injury following bleomycin inhalation in rats. Methods : Sprague-Dawley rats were treated via inhalation with 10 U/kg bleomycin hydrochloride dissolved in 5 ml of normal saline. The control rats were treated with 5 ml normal saline. The animals (n = 6-8 rats per group) were sacrificed at 4, 7, and 14 d. The changes in AQP1, AQP4, and AQP5 expression levels over time were analyzed by Western blotting. The nitrate and nitrite concentrations in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were measured using a modified Griess reaction. ELISA was used to check cytokines. Results : The respiration rates were significantly higher 4 and 7 days after the bleomycin treatment compared with those of the control rats. The tidal volume was lower in rats at 4 days after the bleomycin treatment, and the wet/dry weights of the lung were significantly higher than those of the control group. The nitrite and nitrate concentrations in the BALF from the rats at 4 days after exposure to bleomycin were greater than those from the saline-treated rats. Immunoblotting studies demonstrated that the AQP1 and AQP4 expression levels were lower in the rats at 4 days. However, the AQP4 expression level was higher at 7 days. The AQP5 expression level increased at 4, 7 and 14 days after the bleomycin treatment. Conclusion : This study demonstrates that AQPs are expressed differently in bleomycin-induced pulmonary edema.

배 경: 급성폐손상은 여러 가지 치료의 발전에도 높은 사망률을 보이는 질환으로 병태생리학적 연구가 필요한 실정이다. 아쿠아포린 (AQP)은 수분통로로 급성폐손상에서 폐부종에 관여되는 것으로 알려져 있어 bleomycin을 이용한 급성 폐손상모델에서 아쿠아포린의 발현을 확인하고자 하였다. 방 법: Bleomycin 10 U/kg을 Sprague-Dawley rats에 흡입시켜 급성 폐손상 보델을 만들고 흡입후 4, 7, 14일에 호흡수, 상시호흡량을 측정하고, 기관지폐포세척액을 얻으며, 폐조직을 얻었다. 얻은 폐조직에서 wet/dry 량을 측정하고 기관지 폐포세척액에서 사이토카인, 산화질소산물(nitrite와 nitrate)등을 측정하였다. 그리고 폐조직에서 AQP1, AQP4와 AQP5를 면역조직염색에서 확인하였다. 결 과: Bleomycin 흡입 후 호흡수는 4, 7일에 상시호흡량은 4일에 대조군에 비해 유의한 차이를 보였다. Wet/dry 질량은 대조군에 비해 4일에 유의하게 높았다. 기관지폐포세척액에서 산화질소산물은 4일에 가장 높았다. 면역화학염색에서 AQP1과 AQP4는 4일에 감소하였으며 AQP4는 7일에 증가하였고, AQP5는 4, 7, 14일에 발현이 증가하였다. 결 론: 아쿠아포린은 급성폐손상 모델에서 다양하게 발현하여 급성 폐손상의 경과에 따라 다르게 작용함을 시사한다.
