Description

Oxygen may damage the lung directly via generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) or indirectly via the recruitment of inflammatory cells, especially neutrophils. Overexpression of extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) has been shown to protect the lung against hyperoxia in the newborn mouse model. The CXC-chemokine receptor antagonist (Antileukinate) successfully inhibits neutrophil influx into the lung following a variety of pulmonary insults. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the combined strategy of overexpression of EC-SOD and inhibiting neutrophil influx would reduce the inflammatory response and oxidative stress in the lung after acute hyperoxic exposure more efficiently than either single intervention. Methods Neonate transgenic (Tg) (with an extra copy of hEC-SOD) and wild type (WT) were exposed to acute hyperoxia (95% FiO 2 for 7 days) and compared to matched room air groups. Inflammatory markers (myeloperoxidase, albumin, number of inflammatory cells), oxidative markers (8-isoprostane, ratio of reduced/oxidized glutathione), and histopathology were examined in groups exposed to room air or hyperoxia. During the exposure, some mice received a daily intraperitoneal injection of Antileukinate. Results Antileukinate-treated Tg mice had significantly decreased pulmonary inflammation and oxidative stress compared to Antileukinate-treated WT mice ( p < 0.05) or Antileukinate-non-treated Tg mice ( p < 0.05). Conclusion Combined strategy of EC-SOD and neutrophil influx blockade may have a therapeutic benefit in protecting the lung against acute hyperoxic injury.

Abstract Background:Oxygen may damage the lung directly via generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) or indirectly via the recruitment of inflammatory cells, especially neutrophils. Overexpression of extracellular superoxide dismutase (ECSOD) has been shown to protect the lung against hyperoxia in the newborn mouse model. The CXCchemokine receptor antagonist (Antileukinate) successfully inhibits neutrophil influx into the lung following a variety of pulmonary insults. In this study, we tested the hypothesis that the combined strategy of overexpression of ECSOD and inhibiting neutrophil influx would reduce the inflammatory response and oxidative stress in the lung after acute hyperoxic exposure more efficiently than either single intervention. Methods:Neonate transgenic (Tg) (with an extra copy of hECSOD) and wild type (WT) were exposed to acute hyperoxia (95% FiO2for 7 days) and compared to matched room air groups. Inflammatory markers (myeloperoxidase, albumin, number of inflammatory cells), oxidative markers (8isoprostane, ratio of reduced/ oxidized glutathione), and histopathology were examined in groups exposed to room air or hyperoxia. During the exposure, some mice received a daily intraperitoneal injection of Antileukinate. Results:Antileukinatetreated Tg mice had significantly decreased pulmonary inflammation and oxidative stress compared to Antileukinatetreated WT mice (p<0.05) or Antileukinatenontreated Tg mice (p<0.05). Conclusion:Combined strategy of ECSOD and neutrophil influx blockade may have a therapeutic benefit in protecting the lung against acute hyperoxic injury.

Background Supplemental oxygen is a common, and life saving, strat egy used in neonatal intensive care units [1]. However, exposure to high concentrations of oxygen causes increased oxidative stress [24], inflammation [5,6] and damage to lung tissues [27]. Persistent exposure to hyperoxia eventually results in irreversible pulmonary toxicity and death [8]. Preterm infants are particularly vulnerable to oxygen toxicity as a consequence of an im mature antioxidant system [9,10]. Oxygen may damage

lung cells directly via generation of reactive oxygen spe cies (ROS) [11] or indirectly via the action of inflamma tory cells and inflammatory mediators [12,13]. These responses, in turn, overwhelm the cellular antioxidant defenses and lead to the accumulation of toxic levels of ROS. Thus, there is a need to develop better treatment strategies to reduce the oxidative burden on the lung, modulate cytokine networks, and prevent recruitment of inflammatory cells that are responsible for the tissue damage. While supplementing the immature antioxidant sys tem in preterm infants has been investigated, clinical trials of antioxidant vitamin [14] or antioxidant enzyme supplementation [15] have had only modest success or have been ineffective at preventing bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD). However, overexpression of manganese
