Abstract
BACKGROUND Inflammatory mediators in postshock mesenteric lymph have been causally linked to systemic polymorphonuclear cells (PMNs) priming resulting in acute lung injury (ALI) and multiple organ failure. Earlier human and animal studies demonstrated ALI after lower limb ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury. As hemorrhagic shock (HS) is in essence a systemic I/R insult, we postulated that systemic lymph after HS would exhibit PMN priming and this was studied in vitro. METHODS Lymph was collected at intervals from the hind limb of dogs subjected to sham or HS and crystalloid resuscitation. Human PMNs isolated from heparinized blood of normal volunteers were incubated with buffer, sham lymph, or lymph after 120 minutes of shock or resuscitation. PMN priming was indexed by CD11b expression (mean fluorescence intensity), superoxide anion (O2(-)) generation (nanomoles/mg protein), and elastase release (%) after the addition of fMLP (1 micromol). PMNs with buffer served as control. RESULTS PMN priming after exposure to either shock or postshock resuscitation lymph was noted by increased expression of CD11b, superoxide generation, and elastase release after exposure to fMLP. No priming effect was noted with sham lymph. Maximal bioactivity of shock or postresuscitation shock lymph was noted at 2 hours postresuscitation. CONCLUSIONS Exposure with systemic lymph after HS resulted in PMN priming. These results question the unique properties attributed to post-HS lymph from the splanchnic bed in causing PMN priming and ALI after shock. The causal agent(s) for these effects are unclear.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Postshock mesenteric lymph (PSML) is the mechanistic link between splanchnic ischemia reperfusion (IR) and remote organ injury. We hypothesize that an unbiased inspection of the proteome of PSML will reveal previously unrecognized aberrations in systems biology provoked by hemorrhage-induced mesenteric IR injury in vivo. METHODS Shock was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats by controlled hemorrhage, and the mesenteric duct was cannulated for lymph collection. Preshock and postshock lymph were collected for differential in-gel electrophoresis (DIGE)-based proteomics. Proteins that increased or decreased in relative concentration > or =1.5-fold were selected for trypsin digestion and analysis by mass spectrometry (MS). RESULTS Evidence of tissue injury was detected by an increase in cell/tissue proteins in PSML. Components of coagulation were depleted, whereas products of hemolysis were increased. Haptoglobin was decreased, which supports an early postshock hemolytic process. Interestingly, several protective protease inhibitors were decreased in PSML. The unexpected findings were an increase in alpha-enolase (a key glycolitic enzyme and cell-surface plasminogen binding receptor, +2.4-fold change) and increased major urinary protein (MUP, a sex-specific lipid-binding protein, +17.1-fold change) in PSML. CONCLUSION A proteomic evaluation of PSML revealed evidence of several shock-associated processes: protein release from tissue injury, depletion of coagulation factors and evidence of hemolysis, depletion of protective protease inhibitors, and an increase in abundance of lipid carriers. These results suggest that constitutive changes in the proteome of PSML may provide novel insights into the complex pathophysiology of postshock systems biology.

Abstract
Diseases featuring abnormally low alveolar PO2 are frequently accompanied by systemic effects. The common presence of an underlying inflammatory component suggests that inflammation may contribute to the pathogenesis of the systemic effects of alveolar hypoxia. While the role of alveolar macrophages in the immune and defense functions of the lung has been long known, recent evidence indicates that activation of alveolar macrophages causes inflammatory disturbances in the systemic microcirculation. The purpose of this review is to describe observations in experimental animals showing that alveolar macrophages initiate a systemic inflammatory response to alveolar hypoxia. Evidence obtained in intact animals and in primary cell cultures indicate that alveolar macrophages activated by hypoxia release a mediator(s) into the circulation. This mediator activates perivascular mast cells and initiates a widespread systemic inflammation. The inflammatory cascade includes activation of the local renin-angiotensin system and results in increased leukocyte-endothelial interactions in post-capillary venules, increased microvascular levels of reactive O2 species; and extravasation of albumin. Given the known extrapulmonary responses elicited by activation of alveolar macrophages, this novel phenomenon could contribute to some of the systemic effects of conditions featuring low alveolar PO2.

Abstract
Intestinal ischemia after trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) results in gut barrier dysfunction and the production/release of biologically active and tissue injurious factors in the mesenteric lymph, which, in turn, causes acute lung injury and a systemic inflammatory state. Since T/HS-induced lung injury is associated with pulmonary endothelial and epithelial cell programmed cell death (PCD) and was abrogated by mesenteric lymph duct ligation, we sought to investigate the cellular pathways involved. Compared with trauma-sham shock (T/SS) rats, a significant increase in caspase-3 and M30 expression was detected in the pulmonary epithelial cells undergoing PCD, whereas apoptosis-inducing factor (AIF), but not caspase-3, was detected in endothelial cells undergoing PCD. This AIF-mediated pulmonary endothelial PCD response was validated in an in situ femoral vein assay where endothelial cells were found to express AIF but not caspase-3. To complement these studies, human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC), human lung microvascular endothelial cell (HLMEC), and human alveolar type II epithelial cell (A549) lines were used as in vitro models. T/HS lymph induced the nuclear translocation of AIF in HUVEC and HLMEC, and caspase inhibition in these cells did not afford any cytoprotection. For proof of principle, AIF silencing in HUVEC reversed the cytotoxic effects of T/HS on cell viability and DNA fragmentation. In A549 cells, T/HS lymph activated caspase-3-mediated apoptosis, which was partially abrogated by N-benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp (zVAD). Additionally, T/HS lymph did not cause the nuclear translocation of AIF in A549 cells. Collectively, T/HS-induced pulmonary endothelial PCD occurs via an AIF-dependent caspase-independent pathway, whereas epithelial cells undergo apoptosis by a caspase-dependent pathway.

Abstract
Clinical and experimental studies have shown that trauma combined with hemorrhage shock (T/HS) is associated with myocardial contractile dysfunction. However, the initial events triggering the cardiac dysfunction are not fully elucidated. Thus we tested the hypothesis that factors carried in intestinal (mesenteric) lymph contribute to negative inotropic effects in rats subjected to a laparotomy (T) plus hemorrhagic shock (HS; mean arterial blood pressure of 30-40 Torr for 90 min) using a Langendorff isolated heart preparation. Left ventricular (LV) function was assessed 24 h after trauma plus sham shock (T/SS) or T/HS by recording the LV developed pressure (LVDP) and the maximal rate of LVDP rise and fall ( +/- dP/dt(max)) in five groups of rats: 1) naive noninstrumented rats, 2) rats subjected to T/SS, 3) rats subjected to T/HS, 4) rats subjected to T/SS with mesenteric lymph duct ligation (T/SS+LDL), or 5) rats subjected to T/HS+LDL. Cardiac function was comparable in hearts from naive, T/SS, and T/SS+LDL rats. Both LVDP and +/- dP/dt(max) were significantly depressed after T/HS. The T/HS hearts also manifested a blunted responsiveness to increases in coronary flow rates and Ca(2+), and this was prevented by LDL preceding T/HS. Although electrocardiograms were normal under physiological conditions, when the T/HS hearts were perfused with low Ca(2+) levels ( approximately 0.5 mM), prolonged P-R intervals and second-degree plus Wenckebach-type atrioventricular blocks were observed. No such changes occurred in the control or T/HS+LDL hearts. The effects of T/HS were similar to those of the Ca(2+) channel antagonist diltiazem, indicating that an impairment of cellular Ca(2+) handling contributes to T/HS-induced cardiac dysfunction. In conclusion, gut-derived factors carried in mesenteric lymph are responsible for acute T/HS-induced cardiac dysfunction.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recognition that resuscitation with Ringers lactate (RL) potentiates trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS)-induced organ injury and systemic inflammation has led to a search for improved initial fluid resuscitation regimens. However, one relatively neglected component in the search for new and novel resuscitation strategies is a determination of what fluid resuscitation therapy (i.e., control group) the new experimental regimen of interest should be tested against. Thus, we tested the effects of three commonly used resuscitation strategies on trauma-shock-induced gut and lung injury, as well as neutrophil activation and red blood cell (RBC) function. METHODS Male Sprague Dawley rats were subjected to a laparotomy (trauma) and 90 minutes of sham shock (trauma-sham shock [T/SS]) or a laparotomy plus hemorrhagic shock (T/HS), followed by a reperfusion period of 3 hours. The T/HS groups were resuscitated either with their shed blood (SB), or half the SB and 1.5 times the SB volume as RL (SB/RL), or 3 times the SB volume as RL (3RL). The T/SS groups received either no resuscitation or RL at 1.5 times the SB volume of the T/HS rats. Gut injury was quantified by measuring intestinal permeability to flourescein dextran (FD-4), as well as by histologic analysis of the terminal ileum. Lung injury was assessed histologically and by the magnitude of neutrophil sequestration as reflected in myeloperoxidase levels. Neutrophil activation was measured by quantitating the level of CD11b expression using flow cytometry. RBC injury was analyzed by measuring the RBC deformability. RESULTS As compared with the T/SS groups, all three T/HS resuscitation regimens were associated with morphologic evidence of gut and lung injury, increased gut permeability, pulmonary leukosequestration, systemic neutrophil activation, and decreased RBC deformability (p < 0.05). However, the effect of the resuscitation regimens varied based on the tissues and cells tested. Morphologically, gut and lung injury as well as pulmonary neutrophil sequestration was worse in the 3RL T/HS group than the other two T/HS groups. As compared with the other two T/HS resuscitation regimens, resuscitation with the SB/RL combination was associated with less of an increase in gut permeability, systemic neutrophil activation, and RBC rigidification (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS The type of resuscitation regimen used influenced the extent of organ injury and cellular activation or dysfunction observed after T/HS with different resuscitation regimens showing varying effects depending on the cell or organ tested. Thus, when testing novel fluid resuscitation regimen, attention must be paid to the control resuscitation regimen used.

Abstract
Background One of the greatest challenges facing biomedical research is the integration and sharing of vast amounts of information, not only for individual researchers, but also for the community at large. Agent Based Modeling (ABM) can provide a means of addressing this challenge via a unifying translational architecture for dynamic knowledge representation. This paper presents a series of linked ABMs representing multiple levels of biological organization. They are intended to translate the knowledge derived from in vitro models of acute inflammation to clinically relevant phenomenon such as multiple organ failure. Results and Discussion ABM development followed a sequence starting with relatively direct translation from in-vitro derived rules into a cell-as-agent level ABM, leading on to concatenated ABMs into multi-tissue models, eventually resulting in topologically linked aggregate multi-tissue ABMs modeling organ-organ crosstalk. As an underlying design principle organs were considered to be functionally composed of an epithelial surface, which determined organ integrity, and an endothelial/blood interface, representing the reaction surface for the initiation and propagation of inflammation. The development of the epithelial ABM derived from an in-vitro model of gut epithelial permeability is described. Next, the epithelial ABM was concatenated with the endothelial/inflammatory cell ABM to produce an organ model of the gut. This model was validated against in-vivo models of the inflammatory response of the gut to ischemia. Finally, the gut ABM was linked to a similarly constructed pulmonary ABM to simulate the gut-pulmonary axis in the pathogenesis of multiple organ failure. The behavior of this model was validated against in-vivo and clinical observations on the cross-talk between these two organ systems Conclusion A series of ABMs are presented extending from the level of intracellular mechanism to clinically observed behavior in the intensive care setting. The ABMs all utilize cell-level agents that encapsulate specific mechanistic knowledge extracted from in vitro experiments. The execution of the ABMs results in a dynamic representation of the multi-scale conceptual models derived from those experiments. These models represent a qualitative means of integrating basic scientific information on acute inflammation in a multi-scale, modular architecture as a means of conceptual model verification that can potentially be used to concatenate, communicate and advance community-wide knowledge.

Abstract
Mesenteric lymph is the mechanistic link between splanchnic hypoperfusion and acute lung injury (ALI), but the culprit mediator(s) remains elusive. Previous work has shown that administration of a phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) inhibitor attenuated postshock ALI and also identified a non-ionic lipid within the postshock mesenteric lymph (PSML) responsible for polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) priming. Consequently, we hypothesized that gut-derived leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)) is a key mediator in the pathogenesis of ALI. Trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) was induced in male Sprague-Dawley rats and the mesenteric duct cannulated for lymph collection/diversion. PSML, arachidonic acid (AA), and a LTB(4) receptor antagonist were added to PMNs in vitro. LC/MS/MS was employed to identify bioactive lipids in PSML and the lungs. T/HS increased AA in PSML and increased LTB(4) and PMNs in the lung. Lymph diversion decreased lung LTB(4) by 75% and PMNs by 40%. PSML stimulated PMN priming (11.56 +/- 1.25 vs. 3.95 +/- 0.29 nmol O(2)(-)/min; 3.75 x 10(5) cells/ml; P < 0.01) that was attenuated by LTB(4) receptor blockade (2.64 +/- 0.58; P < 0.01). AA stimulated PMNs to produce LTB(4), and AA-induced PMN priming was attenuated by LTB(4) receptor antagonism. Collectively, these data indicate that splanchnic ischemia/reperfusion activates gut PLA(2)-mediated release of AA into the lymph where it is delivered to the lungs, provoking LTB(4) production and subsequent PMN-mediated lung injury.

Abstract
We tested the hypothesis that the female intestine is more resistant to gut I/R injury than the male intestine by comparing the effects of the isolated pure gut I/R superior mesenteric artery occlusion (SMAO) model on gut morphology and whether SMAO-induced distant organ injury (lung, bone marrow [BM], neutrophils, and red blood cells [RBCs]) would differ between male and proestrus female rats. At 6 or 24 h after SMAO or sham SMAO, gut injury, lung permeability, pulmonary neutrophil sequestration, RBC deformability, and BM RBC and white blood cell progenitor growth were measured, as was the ability of the plasma from these rats to activate naive rat neutrophils. At both 6 and 24 h after SMAO, the female rats had significantly less intestinal injury and reduced gut-induced lung injury, BM suppression, RBC dysfunction, and neutrophil activation than male rats subjected to SMAO. These results indicate that the resistance of proestrus female rats to gut injury and gut-induced distant organ injury is greater than that observed in male rats.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of intestinal ischemia-reperfusion (IIR) on acute pancreatitis (AP) and the role of mesenteric lymph. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Intestinal ischemia is an early feature of AP and is related to the severity of disease. It is not known whether this contributes to the severity of AP or is a consequence. METHODS Two experiments are reported here using intravital microscopy and a rodent model of mild acute pancreatitis (intraductal 2.5% sodium taurocholate). In the first, rats had an episode of IIR during AP that was produced by temporary occlusion of the superior mesenteric artery (30 min or 3 x 10 min) followed by 2h reperfusion. In a second study rats with AP had an intravenous infusion of mesenteric lymph collected from donor rats that had been subjected to IIR. In both experiments the pancreatic erythrocyte velocity (EV), functional capillary density (FCD), leukocyte adherence (LA), histology and edema index were measured. RESULTS The addition of IIR to AP caused a decline in the pancreatic microcirculation greater than that of AP alone (EV 42% of baseline vs. 73% of baseline AP alone, FCD 43% vs 72%, LA 7 fold increase vs 4 fold increase). This caused an increased severity of AP as evidenced by 1.4-1.8 fold increase of pancreatic edema index and histologic injury respectively. A very similar exacerbation of microvascular failure and increased pancreatitis severity was then demonstrated by the intravenous infusion of IIR conditioned mesenteric lymph from donor animals. CONCLUSIONS Unidentified factors released into the mesenteric lymph following IIR injury are capable of exacerbating AP. This highlights an important role for the intestine in the pathophysiology of AP pathogenesis and identifies mesenteric lymph as a potential therapeutic target.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To test the hypothesis that gut-derived factors carried in trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) lymph is sufficient to induce lung injury. Additionally, because our previous studies showed that T/HS-induced nitric oxide production was associated with lung injury, we examined whether T/HS lymph-induced lung injury occurs via an inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS)-dependent pathway. BACKGROUND We have previously shown that T/HS-induced lung injury is mediated by gut-derived humoral factors carried in the mesenteric lymph. However, it remains unclear whether T/HS lymph itself is sufficient to induce lung injury, or requires the activation of other factors during the T/HS period to exert its effect. METHODS Mesenteric lymph collected from T/HS or trauma-sham shock (T/SS) animals was injected intravenously into male rats at a rate of 1 mL/h for 3 hours. At the end of infusion, lung injury was assessed by lung permeability and lung histology. The effect of iNOS inhibition on T/HS lymph-induced lung injury was studied and this was further confirmed in iNOS knockout mice. Finally, iNOS immunohistochemistry was performed to identify the cells of origin of iNOS. RESULTS The injection of T/HS lymph, but not sham shock lymph, caused lung injury. This was associated with increased plasma nitrite/nitrate levels as well as induction of iNOS protein in the lung, liver, and gut. Treatment with the selective iNOS inhibitor aminoguanidine prevented T/HS lymph-induced lung injury. iNOS knockout mice, but not their wild-type controls, were resistant to T/HS lymph-induced lung injury. By immunohistochemistry, neutrophils and macrophages, rather than parenchymal cells, were the source of T/HS lymph-induced lung iNOS. CONCLUSIONS These results indicate that T/HS lymph is sufficient to induce acute lung injury and that lymph-induced lung injury occurs via an iNOS-dependent pathway.

BACKGROUND Gelsolin is a plasma protein that functions to depolymerize actin filaments preventing capillary plug formation following tissue injury. It also functions to mediate the inflammatory response by binding proinflammatory lipids such as lysophosphatidic acid, sphingosine-1-phosphate and phosphoinositides. Clinically, reduced gelsolin concentrations have been associated with increased mortality in critically ill, trauma, and burn patients. We have previously shown that following hemorrhagic shock with splanchnic hypoperfusion, mesenteric lymph contains lipid components that cause neutrophil and EC activation and that protein concentrations are severely diluted due to resuscitation. We hypothesized that lipid binding proteins such as gelsolin may be depleted after trauma/hemorrhagic shock leading to increased lipid bioactivity. METHODS Shock was induced in SD rats by controlled hemorrhage and the mesenteric duct cannulated for lymph collection. Resuscitation was performed by infusing 2x SB volume in NS over 30 min, followed by 1/2 SB volume over 30 min, then 2x SB volume in NS over 60 min. Pre and post-shock lymph was loaded at equal protein concentrations on 2D-gels, followed by trypsin digestion and identification with mass spectrometry (MS-MS). Proteomics data were confirmed with Western blotting then quantitated by densitometry. Analysis of variance was used evaluate statistical data. RESULTS Gelsolin decreased in mesenteric lymph following hemorrhagic shock. CONCLUSIONS Gelsolin is found at high levels (comparable to plasma) in mesenteric lymph. Following hemorrhagic shock, gelsolin levels decrease significantly, possibly due to consumption by the actin scavenging system. The magnitude of this change in concentration could release lipid bioactivity and predispose the lung and other organs to capillary injury.

Postresuscitation tissue neutrophil infiltration is time-dependent and organ-specific. J Surg Res 2007; 143:119-25.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Hemorrhagic shock with conventional resuscitation (CR) primes circulating neutrophils and activates vascular endothelium for increased systemic inflammation, superoxide release, and end-organ damage. Adjunctive direct peritoneal resuscitation (DPR) with intraperitoneal instillation of a clinical peritoneal dialysis solution decreases systemic inflammation and edema formation by enhancing tissue perfusion. The aim of this study is to determine the effect of adjunctive DPR on neutrophil and fluid sequestration. METHODS Anesthetized rats were hemorrhaged to 40% mean arterial pressure for 60 min. Animals were randomized for CR with the return of the shed blood plus two volumes of saline, or CR plus adjunctive DPR with 30 mL of intraperitoneal injection of a clinical peritoneal dialysis solution. Tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) level, a marker of neutrophil sequestration, and total water content were assessed in the gut, lung, and liver in sham animals and at time-points 1, 2, 4, and 24 h postresuscitation. RESULTS Resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock increases MPO level in all tissues in a near-linear fashion during the first 4 h following resuscitation. This occurs irrespective of the resuscitation regimen used. Tissue MPO level returned to baseline at 24 h following resuscitation except in the liver where CR and not adjunctive DPR caused a significant rebound increase. Adjunctive DPR prevented the CR-mediated obligatory fluid sequestration in the gut and lung and maintained a relative normal tissue water in these organs compared with CR alone (n = 7, F = 10.1, P < 0.01). CONCLUSION Hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation produces time-dependent organ-specific trends of neutrophil sequestration as measured with tissue levels of myeloperoxidase, a marker of neutrophil infiltration. Modulation of the splanchnic blood flow by direct peritoneal resuscitation did not alter the time-dependent neutrophil infiltration in end-organs, suggesting a subordinate role of blood rheology in the hemorrhage-induced neutrophil sequestration. Vulnerable window for neutrophil-mediated tissue damage exists during the first 4 h following resuscitation from hemorrhagic shock in rats. Direct peritoneal resuscitation prevents the early obligatory fluid sequestration and promotes early fluid mobilization.

Abstract
The etiology of trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS)-induced acute lung injury has been difficult to elucidate because of, at least in part, the inability of in vivo studies to separate the noninjurious pulmonary effects of trauma-hemorrhage from the tissue-injurious ones. To circumvent this in vivo limitation, we used a model of T/HS in which T/HS lung injury was abrogated by dividing the mesenteric lymph duct. In this way, it was possible to separate the pulmonary injurious response from the noninjurious systemic response to T/HS by comparing the pulmonary molecular responses of rats subjected to T/HS, which did and did not develop lung injury, with those of nonshocked rats. Using high-density oligonucleotide arrays and treatment group comparisons of whole lung tissue collected at 3 h after the end of the shock or sham-shock period, 139 of 8,799 assessed genes were identified by significant analysis of microarrays. Hemorrhage without the secondary effects of lung injury modulated the expression of 21 genes such as interleukin 1beta, metallothionein-2, and myeloctomatosis oncogene (c-myc). In response to injury, 42 genes were identified to be differentially expressed. Upregulated genes included the L1 retroposon and guanine deaminase, whereas downregulated genes included catalase and superoxide dismutase 1. Real-time polymerase chain reaction confirmed the differential expression for selected genes. PathwayAssist analysis identified interleukin 1beta as a central regulator of two subpathways of stress response-related genes (c-myc and superoxide dismutase 1/catalase) as well as several unrelated genes such as lipoprotein lipase. Our model system provided a unique opportunity to distinguish the molecular changes associated with T/HS-induced acute lung injury from the systemic molecular response to T/HS.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Sepsis often results in severe pulmonary dysfunction. Via the thoracic duct, the lung is the first organ exposed to gut-derived inflammatory mediators released into mesenteric lymph during sepsis. AIM To investigate whether an enteral immunonutrition during sepsis improves pulmonary function. METHODS Mesenteric lymph was obtained from lymph fistula donor rats after intra peritoneal (i.p.) saline (control lymph) or lipopolysaccharide (sepsis lymph) injection. Sepsis lymph was also collected during enteral immunonutrition with omega-3 enriched, long-chain fatty acids (SMOF lipid). Control, sepsis, or sepsis-SMOF lymph was reinfused into the jugular vein of separate recipient rats. The lungs were then harvested, stained with hematoxylin-eosin, and analyzed for: (1) perpendicular parenchyma thickness of the alveolar wall; (2) myeloperoxidase-positive cells; and (3) terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase Biotin-dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL)-positive cells. RESULTS Enteral immunonutrition during sepsis reduced the release of TNFalpha into mesenteric lymph by about 4.5-fold within the first 2 h. Infusion of sepsis lymph into recipient rats induced thickening of alveolar walls, inflammatory reaction, and apoptosis. Infusion of sepsis lymph obtained during enteral immunonutrition did not cause anatomical changes, induced only a mild inflammatory reaction, and prevented apoptosis in the lungs of recipient rats. CONCLUSIONS Mediators in sepsis lymph induce pulmonary dysfunction such as an increased distance for oxygen transport, inflammatory reaction, and apoptosis. The lung may be protected by an enteral immunonutrition containing long-chain fatty acids.

Abstract
The term abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) describes the clinical manifestations of the pathologic elevation of the intra-abdominal pressure (IAP). When the IAP exceeds 12 mm Hg it is referred to as intra-abdominal hypertension (IAH) while ACS generally sets in at an IAP in excess of 20 mm Hg. This syndrome is most commonly observed in the setting of severe abdominal trauma and in the aftermath of major abdominal operations. ACS affects mainly the respiratory, cardiovascular, renal, gastrointestinal and the central nervous systems. Fundamental to the development of ACS are the obstruction of venous return to the heart via the inferior vena cava and the splinting of the diaphragm due to elevated IAP. Preventing ACS by the identification of patients at risk and early diagnosis is paramount to its successful management. To this end a high index of suspicion is sine qua non. The management of established ACS requires clinical astuteness and decisiveness with a readily available and generous team support. The purpose of this review is to enhance awareness among clinicians about a subtle condition with a devastating impact on morbidity and mortality if undiagnosed.

Abstract
Major burn injury results in impairment of left ventricular (LV) contractile function. There is strong evidence to support the involvement of gut-derived factor(s) transported in mesenteric lymph in the development of burn-related contractile dysfunction; i.e., mesenteric lymph duct ligation (LDL) prevents burn-related contractile depression. However, the cellular mechanisms for altered myocardial contractility of postburn hearts are largely unknown, and the cellular basis for the salutary effects of LDL on cardiac function have not been investigated. We examined contractility, Ca2+ transients, and L-type Ca2+ currents ( ICa) in LV myocytes isolated from four groups of rats: 1) sham burn, 2) sham burn with LDL (sham + LDL), 3) burn (≈40% of total body surface area burn), and 4) burn with LDL (burn + LDL). Myocytes isolated from hearts at 24 h postburn had a depressed contractility (≈20%) at baseline and blunted responsiveness to elevation of bath Ca2+. Myocyte contractility was comparable in sham + LDL and sham burn hearts. LDL completely prevented burn-related changes in myocyte contractility. Mechanistically, the decrease in contractility in myocytes from postburn hearts occurred with a decrease in the amplitude of Ca2+ transients (≈20%) without changes in resting Ca2+ or Ca2+ content of the sarcoplasmic reticulum. On the other hand, ICa density was decreased (≈30%) in myocytes from postburn hearts, with unaltered voltage-dependent properties. Thus burn-related myocardial contractile dysfunction is linked with depressed myocyte contractility associated with a decrease in ICa density. These findings also provide strong evidence that mesenteric lymph is involved in the onset of burn-related cardiomyocyte dysfunction.

Abstract
Vascular permeability is a pathologic process in many disease states ranging from metastatic progression of malignancies to ischemia-reperfusion injury. In order to more precisely study tissue, and more specifically cell layer permeability, our goal was to create a fluorescence-based assay which could quantify permeability without radioactivity or electrical impedance measurements. Human aortic endothelial cells were grown in monolayer culture on Costar-Transwell clear polyester membrane 6-well cell culture inserts. After monolayer integrity was confirmed, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF(165)) at varying concentrations with a fixed concentration of yellow-green fluorescent 0.04 microm carboxylate-modified FluoSpheres microspheres were placed in the luminal chamber and incubated for 24 h. When stimulated with VEGF(165) at 20, 40, 80, and 100 ng/ml, this assay system was able to detect increases in trans-layer flux of 8.2+/-2.4%, 16.0+/-3.7%, 41.5+/-4.9%, and 58.6+/-10.1% for each concentration, respectively. This represents the first fluorescence-based permeability assay with the sensitivity to detect changes in the permeability of a cell layer to fluid flux independent of protein flux; as well as being simpler and safer than previous radioactive-and impedance-based permeability assays. With the application of this in vitro assay to a variety of pathologic conditions, both the dynamics and physiology relating to cellular permeability can be more fully investigated.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Abdominal sepsis is frequently the cause of severe pulmonary dysfunction. Via the thoracic duct, the lung is the first organ exposed to gut-derived mediators released into the mesenteric lymph. AIM The aim of this study is to investigate whether an enteral immunonutrition with long chain triglycerides prevents septic pulmonary dysfunctions. MATERIALS AND METHODS Mesenteric lymph was obtained from lymph fistula donor rats during sepsis (lipopolysaccharides [LPS], 5 mg/kg i.p.) with or without enteral immunonutrition (1% of olive oil or 1% of fish oil). Sepsis lymph was then reinfused into the jugular vein of separate recipient rats. Thereafter, the lung tissue was analyzed for the distance of oxygen diffusion, inflammatory response, and cell apoptosis. RESULTS Sepsis significantly increased TNFalpha release into the mesenteric lymph, whereas an enteral immunonutrition with olive oil significantly reduced the TNFalpha release into the mesenteric lymph by more than five-fold. Sepsis lymph induced a significant increase in alveolar wall thickness, inflammatory reaction, and apoptosis; whereas sepsis lymph collected during olive oil resorption prevented the thickening of the alveolar walls and induced only a mild inflammation, being more potent than fish oil to reduce septic pulmonary dysfunction. CONCLUSIONS Mediators in the sepsis lymph induce pulmonary dysfunction. The lung may be protected by an enteral immunonutrition containing long chain triglycerides such as olive oil.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Mesenteric lymph may provide the mechanistic link between gut ischemia and acute lung injury after hemorrhagic shock (HS). Studies have focused on the toxic mediators that develop in the post-shock mesenteric lymph (PSML). However, a complementary possibility is that there is loss of protective mediators found in pre-shock normal mesenteric lymph (NML) after HS. We hypothesize that NML protects against inflammatory insults to the pulmonary endothelium and that this effect is lost in PSML. MATERIALS AND METHODS Primary human pulmonary endothelial cells (HMVECs) were incubated with NML or PSML collected from rats subjected to HS and resuscitation and then stimulated with 20 ng/mL LPS. ICAM-1 surface expression was measured by flow cytometry. In subsequent experiments, lipoproteins were extracted from NML before incubation and LPS-induced ICAM-1 expression determined. RESULTS Mean fluorescent intensity (MFI) of LPS-induced ICAM-1 in NML and PSML treated HMVECs were 10.1 +/- 2.3 versus 27.7 +/- 0.83, respectively (P < 0.05). This represented at 71% decrease in ICAM-1 expression by NML compared to ICAM-1 expression in LPS-induced controls (MFI: 34.6 +/- 6.9). Lipoprotein extraction from NML abolished this protective effect (MFI: 31.2 +/- 5.3 versus Control + LPS: 33.5 +/- 3.6, P > 0.05). Baseline ICAM-1 levels were not significantly different among control, NML, and PSML groups. CONCLUSION Lipoproteins in NML contain anti-inflammatory properties that decrease ICAM-1 expression induced by LPS in pulmonary endothelium. Decreased protective lipoproteins after HS and resuscitation may contribute to the toxicity associated with PSML from the ischemic gut.

Abstract
AIM: To study the effect of blocking intestinal lymphatic circulation in two-hit rats and explore the significance of intestinal lymphatic circulation in two-hit.
METHODS: Wistar rats were divided equally into three groups: mesenteric lymph duct ligation group, non-ligation group and sham group. Mesenteric lymph was diverted by ligation of mesenteric lymph duct, and the two-hit model was established by hemorrhage and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) methods. All rats were sampled for serum pre-experiment and 24 h post-experiment. The organs including kidney, liver, lung and heart were collected for pathomorphologic observation and biochemical investigation. The nitric oxide (NO), malondialdehyde (MDA) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) were determined in serum and tissue homogenate.
RESULTS: Pathomorphology study showed that the structures of kidney, lung, liver and heart tissues were normal in sham group; congestion, degeneration and necrosis in non-ligation group; but only mild lesions in ligation group. After two-hits, the contents of AST, ALT, BUN, Cr and LDH-1 in the serum of non-ligation group and ligation group were obviously higher than that in pre-experiment group and sham group, but obviously lower than that in non-ligation group. The contents of NO2-/NO3-, NOS, iNOS and MDA in the serum of non-ligation group were significantly increased, compared with pre-experiment and sham group, but SOD was significantly lower. These parameters were significantly different in ligation group compared with that in sham group, but NO2-/NO3-, iNOS and MDA in ligation group were significantly lower than that in non-ligation group.
CONCLUSION: Ligation of mesenteric lymph duct could improve the disturbance of organic function and morphologic damage in two-hit rats; the lymphatic mechanism in two-hit should be emphasized.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) mesenteric lymph from rats has multiple biological properties and appears to cause organ injury via the activation of neutrophils and endothelial cells. As the next step in testing the potential clinical relevance of these rodent studies, we utilized a swine T/HS model to determine whether the intestinal lymph results observed in the rodent could be replicated in swine. A porcine model was chosen because the pig and human cardiovascular and gastrointestinal physiology are similar. METHODS Male pigs were subjected to T/HS and a major intestinal lymph duct was cannulated. Hemorrhagic shock (mean arterial pressure, 40 mm Hg) was performed by withdrawing blood, for 3 hours or until the base deficit reached -5. Animals were then resuscitated in two stages to mimic the prehospital and hospital phases of resuscitation. Mesenteric lymph was collected hourly throughout the experiment and its biological activity was tested on neutrophils (respiratory burst) and endothelial cells (monolayer permeability and cytotoxicity). RESULTS T/HS lymph but not trauma-sham shock lymph (T/SS) increased neutrophil activation as reflected by an augmented respiratory burst. Likewise T/HS lymph collected at all time points up to 5 hours postshock significantly increased endothelial cell permeability by twofold or greater (p < 0.05), whereas T/HS lymph produced during the first 2 hours postshock was cytotoxic for endothelial cells (viability 70%, p < 0.05 vs. preshock). In contrast, T/SS lymph had no effect on the endothelial cells. CONCLUSION This large animal model validates rodent studies showing that the shock-injured gut releases biologically active factors into the mesenteric lymph and these factors activate neutrophils and injure endothelial cells.

Abstract
We have reported that toxic factors in intestinal lymph are responsible for acute lung injury and bone marrow suppression and that they contribute to a systemic inflammatory state based on studies in rodent models of trauma-hemorrhagic shock. Rodent models may not completely reflect the responses of injured patients. Thus, it is important to confirm these findings in primates before applying them to injured human patients with trauma. Thus, we have recently established baboon trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) and trauma-sham shock (T/SS) models that showed that gut-derived factors carried in the lymph potentiates lung injury and causes human endothelial dysfunction and suppresses human bone marrow progenitor cell growth. Here, we further investigated the effects of these primate lymph samples on human neutrophils. We hypothesized that toxic factors in baboon lymph may prime and/or activate human polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) leading to overproduction of superoxide, thereby contributing to the development of adult respiratory distress syndrome and multiple organ failure. To this effect, we have examined the priming effect of baboon T/HS and T/SS lymph on PMN respiratory burst and expression of adhesion molecule in human neutrophils. The results of these studies indicate that PMN treated with baboon T/HS lymph showed significantly induced respiratory burst responses compared with PMN treated with T/SS lymph or medium when phorbol myristate acetate PMA was applied after lymph pretreatment. Secondly, we found that the expression of CD11b adhesion molecule was increased by incubation with T/HS lymph. These results suggest that baboon lymph from T/HS models can increase respiratory burst and adhesion molecule expression in human PMN, thereby potentially contributing to PMN-mediated organ injury.

Abstract
Bone marrow (BM) suppression occurs following trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) in experimental animals as well as following severe injury in humans. Although the pathophysiology of BM suppression remains poorly understood, mesenteric lymph is thought to play an important role in T/HS-induced BM suppression; however, the direct effect of mesenteric lymph on BM in vitro has never been studied. In addition, recent studies in rats have also shown that female and castrated male rats are protected against T/HS-induced BM failure. We therefore hypothesized that mesenteric lymph is a source of factor(s) causing direct BM suppression and that the effects of mesenteric lymph are gender dependent. To test this hypothesis, we subjected noncastrated (NC) and castrated (C) male and proestrus female rats to T/HS or trauma sham shock (T/SS). Mesenteric lymph collected 3 h postshock was plated (4% v/v) with BM cells collected from unmanipulated male or female rats for granulocyte-macrophage colony-forming units (CFU-GM) and erythroid burst-forming units (BFU-E) colony growth. The T/HS lymph collected from NC-male rats but not from female rats caused a 50% inhibition of CFU-GM and BFU-E colony growth compared with cells cultured without lymph (P < 0.05 versus all other groups (ANOVA + Tukey). T/HS lymph collected from C-male rats also caused no significant inhibition of CFU-GM and BFU-E colony growth compared with cells cultured without lymph. Female and male BM progenitor cells had a similar response to mesenteric lymph from all groups tested. These results show that mesenteric lymph from NC-male rats suppresses CFU-GM and BFU-E progenitor growth in vitro, whereas the lymph from C-male and female rats did not. The effects of mesenteric lymph were the same regardless of whether the target BM was from male or female rats. The results therefore indicate that BM failure in male rats is directly mediated by factors present within the mesenteric lymph that appear to be modulated by castration, and protection against BM failure in female rats occurs at a systemic rather than a local level. Further studies are needed to elucidate potential therapeutic effects of lymph manipulation in hematopoiesis after injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Both experimental and clinical studies have shown that acute pancreatitis (AP) causes a significant decrease in red blood cell (RBC) deformability. The mechanisms by which AP induces RBC injury are unknown. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that factors carried in the mesenteric lymph after an attack of AP significantly contribute to the RBC injury observed in AP. METHODS RBC deformability was determined by means of laser-assisted ektacytometry in mesenteric lymph duct-ligated and non-ligated rats subjected to AP and in sham-operated animals. RESULTS AP was associated with significant alterations of RBC deformability indices, namely the elongation index and half maximal RBC elongation. Pancreatitis-induced RBC deformability changes were partially prevented by mesenteric lymph duct ligation. CONCLUSIONS Mesenteric lymph in AP contains factors that cause RBC damage, which is manifested by decreased deformability. Interruption of the lymph flow from the injured gut into the bloodstream decreases these RBC alterations.

Abstract
Gut-derived factors in intestinal lymph have been shown to trigger myocardial contractile dysfunction. However, the underlying cellular mechanisms remain unclear. We examined the effects of physiologically relevant concentrations of mesenteric lymph collected from rats with 40% burn injury (burn lymph) on excitation-contraction coupling in rat ventricular myocytes. Burn lymph (0.1-5%), but not control mesenteric lymph from sham-burn animals, induced dual positive and negative inotropic effects depending on the concentrations used. At lower concentrations (<0.5%), burn lymph increased the amplitude of myocyte contraction (1.6 +/- 0.3-fold; n = 12). At higher concentrations (>0.5%), burn lymph initially enhanced myocyte contraction, which was followed by a block of contraction. These effects were partially reversible on washout. The initial positive inotropic effect was associated with a prolongation of action potential duration (measured at 90% repolarization, 2.5 +/- 0.6-fold; n = 10), leading to significant increases in the net Ca2+ influx (1.7 +/- 0.1-fold; n = 8). There were no significant changes in the resting membrane potential. The negative inotropic effect was accompanied by a decrease in the action potential plateau (overshoot decrease by 69 +/- 10%; n = 4) and membrane depolarization. Voltage-clamp experiments revealed that the positive inotropic effects of burn lymph were due to an inhibition of the transient outward K+ currents that prolong action potential duration, and the inhibitory effects were due to a concentration-dependent inhibition of Ca2+ currents that lead to a reduction of action potential plateau. These burn lymph-induced changes in cardiac myocyte Ca2+ handling can contribute to burn-induced contractile dysfunction and ultimately to heart failure.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recognition of the limitations of standard crystalloid resuscitation has led to the search for alternative resuscitation strategies that might better limit the development of trauma-hemorrhage-induced organ dysfunction and systemic inflammation. Thus, the goal of this study was to compare the effects of two resuscitation strategies alone, and in combination, with those of standard resuscitation with Ringers lactate (RL). The two strategies were small volume resuscitation with hypertonic saline (HTS) and intraluminal inhibition of pancreatic proteases with the serine protease inhibitor nafamostat. METHODS Male rats were subjected to trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) or trauma sham-shock (T/SS) and resuscitated with RL, HTS, nafamostat, or the combination of HTS and nafamostat. The T/HS model consisted of a laparotomy plus 90 minutes of shock (MAP 30 mm Hg). Three hours after the end of the shock or sham-shock period, lung permeability, pulmonary neutrophil sequestration, neutrophil activation, red blood cell deformability, and gut injury were assessed. RESULTS Both HTS and nafamostat reduced T/HS-induced pulmonary permeability and neutrophil sequestration, as well as neutrophil activation as compared with resuscitation with RL. However, HTS was more effective than nafamostat in reducing T/HS-induced acute lung injury and neutrophil activation. Additionally, HTS, but not nafamostat, reduced T/HS-induced RBC rigidification. Lastly, gut injury after T/HS was reduced to the greatest extent by the combination of HTS plus nafamostat. CONCLUSION Small volume resuscitation with HTS is more effective than RL and nafamostat in limiting T/HS-induced acute lung injury, neutrophil activation and red blood cell injury.

Abstract
In both animal models of hemorrhagic shock and clinical settings, shock-induced gut ischemia has been implicated in the development of the systemic inflammatory response syndrome and distant organ injury, yet the factors transducing these events remain to be fully determined. Because hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF-1), a transcription factor composed of oxygen-labile HIF-1alpha and constitutive HIF-1beta subunits, regulates the physiologic/pathophysiologic response to hypoxia and ischemia, we examined the HIF-1 response in two rat models of gut ischemia-reperfusion. We found that ileal nuclear HIF-1alpha protein levels were induced in rats subjected to trauma (laparotomy) plus hemorrhagic shock for 90 min relative to their trauma sham-shock and naïve counterparts and that this trauma hemorrhagic shock-induced mucosal HIF-1alpha protein response persisted after 1 h and 3 h of reperfusion. Likewise, in a model of isolated gut ischemia-reperfusion injury, where the superior mesenteric artery was occluded for 45 min, nuclear HIF-1alpha were induced in the gut mucosa relative to their sham counterparts and persisted after 1 h and 3 h or reperfusion. Similar to the in vivo response, in vitro hypoxia induced HIF-alpha expression in three different enterocyte cell lines (rat IEC-6 and human Caco-2 and HT-29 cell lines). However, in contrast to the in vivo response, HIF-1 expression rapidly disappeared on subsequent reoxygenation. Because in vivo enterocytes are exposed to bacteria, we tested whether the in vitro HIF-1alpha response would persist on reoxygenation if the enterocytes were cocultured with bacteria. P. aeruginosa, an enteric bacterium, markedly induced enterocyte HIF-1alpha protein levels under normoxic conditions. Furthermore, the addition of P. aeruginosa during either the hypoxic or reoxygenation phase prevented the degradation of HIF-1alpha protein levels. Moreover, the observation that lipopolysaccharide induced HIF-1alpha expression in a time-dependent manner in IEC-6 cells indicated that the induction of HIF-1 by exposure to P. aeruginosa is not dependent on bacterial viability. In conclusion, these results suggest that HIF-1alpha activation is an early reperfusion-independent event in models of gut ischemia-reperfusion and that this HIF-1alpha response is potentiated by the presence of P. aeruginosa or lipopolysaccharide.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Critical illness is associated with the generation of oxygen free radicals and low endogenous antioxidant capacity leading to a condition of oxidative stress. We investigated whether supplementing critically ill patients with antioxidants, trace elements, and vitamins improves their survival. METHODS We searched four bibliographic databases from 1980 to 2003 and included studies that were randomized, reported clinically important endpoints in critically ill patients, and compared various trace elements and vitamins to placebo. RESULTS Eleven articles met the inclusion criteria. When the results of all the trials were aggregated, overall antioxidants were associated with a significant reduction in mortality [Risk Ratio (RR) 0.65, 95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.44-0.97, p=0.03] but had no effect on infectious complications. Studies that utilized a single trace element were associated with a significant reduction in mortality [RR 0.52, 95% CI 0.27-0.98, p=0.04] whereas combined antioxidants had no effect. Studies using parenteral antioxidants were associated with a significant reduction in mortality [RR 0.56, 95% CI 0.34-0,92, p=0.02] whereas studies of enteral antioxidants were not. Selenium supplementation (alone and in combination with other antioxidants) may be associated with a reduction in mortality [RR 0.59, 95% CI 0.32-1.08, p=0.09] while nonselenium antioxidants had no effect on mortality. CONCLUSIONS Trace elements and vitamins that support antioxidant function, particularly high-dose parenteral selenium either alone or in combination with other antioxidants, are safe and may be associated with a reduction in mortality in critically ill patients.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Trauma-hemorrhagic shock is one of the leading causes of acute respiratory distress syndrome. This syndrome is associated with disruption of the alveolar barrier consisting of both epithelial and endothelial cells, which leads to a major increase in epithelial and microvascular permeability in the lungs. Although alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis has been documented as a contributing factor to this increase in permeability, it is unclear whether endothelial cell apoptosis occurs following trauma-hemorrhagic shock and, if so, the source of factors leading to this process. DESIGN Prospective animal study with concurrent control. SETTING Small-animal laboratory. SUBJECTS Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. INTERVENTIONS Trauma-hemorrhagic shock in rats was induced by laparotomy followed by blood withdrawal to achieve a mean arterial blood pressure of 30 mm Hg for 90 mins. At the end of the shock period, the rats were resuscitated, and 3 hrs later lungs were taken for histologic analysis. In other experiments, mesenteric lymph was collected from trauma-hemorrhagic shock and trauma-sham shock rats, and the biological activity of these lymph samples was tested for their ability to kill cultured endothelial cells or endothelial cells of isolated femoral veins. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Trauma-hemorrhagic shock triggered endothelial cell apoptosis in the lung as assessed using the Tunnel assay as well as by light and electron microscopic analysis. Since our previous studies have documented that mesenteric lymph is a major contributor to lung injury following shock, we also tested the hypothesis that factors in the mesenteric lymph were responsible for the endothelial cell apoptosis-inducing effect of shock. Preventing the mesenteric lymph from reaching the lung by mesenteric lymph duct ligation decreased endothelial cell apoptosis. Mesenteric lymph obtained from rats subjected to trauma-hemorrhagic shock elicited apoptosis in cultured endothelial cells and when placed into isolated femoral vein as well as increased endothelial cell monolayer permeability. CONCLUSIONS Trauma-hemorrhagic shock induces endothelial as well as epithelial cell apoptosis in the lung via factors contained in the mesenteric lymph, thereby contributing to the pathophysiology of the acute respiratory distress syndrome.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether pancreatic digestive enzymes released into the ischemic gut during an episode of T/HS are involved in the generation of distant organ injury. This hypothesis was tested by examining the effect of PDL on T/HS-induced intestinal injury, lung injury, and RBC deformability. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA The effect of pancreatic duct ligation (PDL) on distant organ injury following trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) was examined. PDL before T/HS decreases lung and red blood cell (RBC) injury and exerts a limited protective effect on the gut. Pancreatic proteases in the ischemic gut appear to be involved in gut-induced lung and RBC injury. Based on recent work, it appears that proinflammatory and/or toxic factors, which are generated by the ischemic intestine, play an important role in the pathogenesis of multiple organ failure. The process by which these toxic factors are generated remains unknown. Previous experimental work has clearly documented that intraluminal inhibition of pancreatic proteases decreases the degree of T/HS-induced lung injury and neutrophil activation. One possible explanation for this observation is that the toxic factors present in intestinal lymph are byproducts of interactions between pancreatic proteases and the ischemic gut. METHODS Male Sprague-Dawley rats were subjected to a laparotomy (trauma) and 90 minutes of sham (T/SS) or T/HS with or without PDL. At 3 and 24 hours following resuscitation, animals were killed and samples of gut, lung, and blood were collected for analysis. Lung permeability, pulmonary myeloperoxidase levels, and bronchoalveolar fluid protein content were used to quantitate lung injury. Intestinal injury was determined by histologic analysis of terminal ileum (% villi injured). To assess RBC injury, RBC deformability was measured, as the RBC elongation index (RBC-EI), using a LORCA device. RESULTS At 3 and 24 hours following resuscitation, PDL prevented shock-induced increases in lung permeability to both Evans blue dye and protein in addition to preventing an increase in pulmonary myeloperoxidase levels. T/HS-induced impairments in RBC deformability were significantly reduced at both time points in the PDL + T/HS group, but deformability did not return to T/SS levels. PDL did reduce the magnitude of ileal injury at 3 hours after T/HS, but the protective effect was lost at 24 hours after T/HS. CONCLUSIONS PDL prior to T/HS decreases lung injury and improves RBC deformability but exerts a limited protective effect on the gut. Thus, the presence of pancreatic digestive enzymes in the ischemic gut appears to be involved in gut-induced lung and RBC injury.

Abstract
AIM: To study how intestinal lymph after trauma-induced shock (TIS) interferes with expression of neutrophil adhesion factors (CD11b and CD18) and causes lung injury.
METHODS: Thirty-two adult healthy Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into four experimental groups. Groups 1 and 2 included rats with TIS caused by hitting the mid-upper part of both side femoral bones with a 2 500 kg raw-iron, and with or without ligation of mesenteric lymph duct. Groups 3 and 4 included rats with sham-TIS and with or without ligation of mesenteric lymph duct. Expression of neutrophil CD18 and CD11b in at 1 and 3 h after a 90-min TIS/sham-TIS was evaluated. These rats were killed at 3 h after TIS/sham-TIS, and lungs were taken immediately. The main lung injury indexes (the MPO activity and lung injury score) were measured.
RESULTS: The expressions of CD18 and CD11b at 1 and 3 h after a 90-min TIS and the main lung injury indexes were significantly increased compared with those in the sham-TIS groups (P < 0.05). Moreover, at 1 and 3 h after TIS, the expressions of CD18 (32.12 ± 1.25 and 33.46 ± 0.98) and CD11b (29.56 ± 1.35 and 30.56 ± 1.85) were significantly decreased in rats with ligation of mesenteric lymph duct, compared with those (52.3 ± 1.12 and 50.21 ± 1.25, and 42.24 ± 1.24 and 42.81 ± 1.12, respectively) in those without the ligation (all P < 0.05). The main lung injury indexes in rats with TIS with ligation of mesenteric lymph duct (0.96 ± 0.12 and 6.54 ± 0.35) were also significantly decreased, compared with those (1.56 ± 0.21 and 9.56 ± 0.23) in rats with TIS without the ligation (both P < 0.05). However, there was no significant difference in expressions of CD18 and CD11b and the main lung injury indexes between the two sham-TIS groups.
CONCLUSION: Previous ligation of mesenteric lymph ducts prevents or alleviates the up-regulated expression of PMN CD18 and CD11b and the lung injury induced by TIS. Our findings also indicate that neutrophil adhesion molecule activation and lung injury during TIS appear to be caused by some factors that are released or produced by post-ischemic intestine through the mesenteric lymph pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Post-hemorrhagic shock mesenteric lymph (PHSML) has been linked with neutrophil (PMN) priming, endothelial cell (EC) activation, and acute lung injury (ALI) in rodent models. We have previously identified the lipid fraction of PHSML as containing the causative agent(s). Due to the lesson learned from the rodent gut bacterial translocation experience, we sought to confirm this phenomenon using a large animal model; hypothesizing that lymph collected from the porcine gut following ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) would cause PMN priming. METHODS Mesenteric lymph was collected from adult pigs before, during, and for 2 hours after non-lethal hemorrhagic shock (mean arterial pressure = 30 mm Hg x 45 minutes). Whole lymph and the extracted lipid fractions of the lymph were then added to isolated human and porcine PMNs and superoxide production was measured by cytochrome C reduction. RESULTS Hemorrhagic shock profoundly affected mesenteric lymph flow from baseline (pre-shock) flow rates of 75.63 +/- 8.86 mL/hr to 49.38 +/- 5.76 mL/hr during shock and increasing to 253.38 +/- 27.62 mL/hr after 2 hours of resuscitation. Human PMNs exposed to both whole lymph (PHSML) and its extracted lipids (PHSML Lipid) collected 2 hours after shock exhibited more than a two-fold increase in superoxide release upon activation compared with pre-shock samples: PHSML- 6.27 +/- 0.83 versus 2.56 +/- 0.60 nmolO2(-)/ 3.75 cells/mL/min, respectively (p = 0.007), PHSML Lipid- 4.93 +/- 0.34 versus 2.49 +/- 0.11 nmolO2(-)/ 3.75 cells/mL/min (p < 0.001). Similarly, porcine PMNs exhibited close to a two-fold activation when exposed to the lymph and lipid fraction: PHSML- 4.51 +/- 0.42 versus 1.06 +/- 0.28 nmolO2(-)/ 3.75 cells/mL/min (p = 0.008), PHSML Lipid-4.80 +/- 0.81 versus 1.55 +/- 0.23 nmolO2(-)/ 3.75 cells/mL/min (p = 0.002). CONCLUSION Mesenteric lymphatics serve as the conduit for inflammatory mediators elaborated by the post-ischemic gut in both small and large animal models. Further, the causal agent(s) exist in the lipid fraction of the lymph and are active on both human and animal PMNs.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Since albumin has the ability to detoxify, we assessed whether low-dose albumin could protect against trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS)-induced endothelial cell, lung, gut, and red blood cell (RBC) injury in vivo and endothelial cell injury in vitro. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA T/HS cause ischemic insult to the gut, resulting in the release of biologically active factors into the mesenteric lymph, which then cause injury to multiple distant organs. METHODS In vitro experiments tested the ability of albumin to reduce the cytotoxicity of mesenteric lymph from male rats subjected to T/HS (laparotomy + MAP 30 mm Hg for 90 minutes) for human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC). In subsequent in vivo experiments, the ability of albumin given as part of the resuscitation regimen to protect against T/HS-induced injury was tested by comparing the magnitude of injury in T/HS rats receiving human albumin (shed blood + 0.12, 0.24, or 0.36 g/kg) or lactated Ringer's solution (shed blood + 2 x volume of shed blood as LR) with that observed in rats subjected to trauma/sham shock. Rats were killed after a 3-hour recovery period and had lung permeability evaluated by bronchoalveolar lavage and myeloperoxidase assays, intestinal microvillous injury by histology, and RBC deformability using ektacytometry. RESULTS Both bovine and human albumin prevented T/HS lymph-induced HUVEC cytotoxicity in vitro, even when added 30 minutes after the lymph (viability 15 +/- 4% to 88 +/- 3%, P < 0.01). In vivo RBC deformability was better preserved by blood plus albumin than blood plus lactated Ringer's solution (P < 0.01). Likewise, albumin administration reduced T/HS-induced lung permeability and neutrophil sequestration in a dose-dependent fashion, with 0.36 g/kg of albumin effecting total lung protection (P < 0.01). In contrast, albumin treatment did not prevent T/HS-induced gut injury. CONCLUSIONS Low-dose albumin protects against gut lymph-induced lung, HUVEC, and RBC injury by neutralizing T/HS lymph toxicity.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Gut-derived factors in intestinal lymph have been recently shown to cause lung injury, activate neutrophils, and injure endothelial cells in rats subjected to hemorrhagic shock (T/HS). However, the time course of the appearance and disappearance of these factors in intestinal lymph is unclear. Thus the goal of this study was to characterize the biologic activity of T/HS lymph collected at various times during and after shock. METHODS Male rats subjected to trauma (laparotomy) plus hemorrhagic shock (mean arterial pressure, 90 mm Hg x 90 min) (T/HS) or trauma plus sham shock (T/SS) had their mesenteric lymph duct catheterized. Mesenteric lymph collected before shock, during shock, and hourly for 6 hours after shock was assayed for cytokine levels (tumor necrosis factor, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, interleukin-1, and transforming growth factor-beta) as well as biologic activity on endothelial cells (cytotoxicity and permeability) and neutrophils (CD11b adhesion molecule expression and respiratory burst activity). RESULTS T/HS, but not T/SS, lymph injured endothelial cells and activated neutrophils, although the cytokine levels did not differ between the T/HS and T/SS lymph samples. The biologic activity of T/HS lymph appeared during the shock (gut ischemic) period. The temporal pattern of activity varied on the basis of the biologic activity being tested, with the neutrophil-activating properties of the T/HS lymph persisting longest. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that gut ischemia itself is sufficient to induce the production of biologically active T/HS lymph and that the temporal pattern of biologic activity varies over time on the basis of the property being tested. Consequently, studies directed at identifying the active factors in T/HS lymph must take these temporal patterns of activity into account.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine the mechanism by which gut-derived factors present in mesenteric lymph from rats subjected to trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) induce endothelial cell death. SUMMARY BACKGROUND DATA Intestinal ischemia after hemorrhagic shock results in gut barrier dysfunction and the subsequent production of biologically active and tissue injurious factors by the ischemic gut. These factors are carried in the mesenteric lymph and reach the systemic circulation via the mesenteric lymph, thereby ultimately resulting in distant organ injury. Although studies have established that trauma-hemorrhagic (T/HS) shock but not trauma-sham-shock (T/SS) mesenteric lymph is cytotoxic to endothelial cells, whether T/HS lymph-induced endothelial cell death occurs via an apoptotic or a necrotic pathway is unknown. The mechanisms underlying T/HS lymph-induced cytotoxicity are likewise unknown. METHODS Human umbilical vein endothelial cell (HUVEC) monolayers were incubated with medium, sham-shock, or post shock mesenteric lymph (5%) for 4 hours, after which the mode of cell death (ie, apoptosis versus necrosis) was determined using morphologic (confocal microscopy), biochemical (nucleosomal release), and DNA-based (gel electrophoresis) assays. To clarify the cellular pathways involved in T/HS lymph-induced HUVEC cell death, caspase-3, caspase-9, caspase-8, and BID activity was measured as was the ability of the pan-caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk to prevent T/HS lymph-induced cell death. RESULTS T/HS, but not T/SS, mesenteric lymph or medium was cytotoxic and caused the appearance of the classic morphologic signs of apoptosis, including membrane blebbing, cell shrinkage, and apoptotic body formation. Nucleosomal release and a DNA laddering pattern was also observed in the HUVECs incubated with T/HS lymph. These signs of apoptosis were associated with increased caspase activity as reflected in activation of the pro-apoptotic caspases, caspase-8, -9, and -3, as well as the pro-apoptotic bcl-2-related protein BID. However, since the broad-spectrum caspase inhibitor z-VAD-fmk delayed T/HS lymph-induced HUVEC cell death, but did not prevent it fully, it appears that other factors besides caspases are involved in the endothelial cell toxicity of T/HS lymph. CONCLUSIONS Gut-derived factors in T/HS, but not T/SS, mesenteric lymph cause endothelial cell death via an apoptotic mechanism that involves both caspase-dependent and caspase-independent pathways.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our previous studies indicated that mesenteric lymph duct ligation prevented burn-induced lung injury. Thus, the goal of the present study was to begin to investigate potential mechanisms of this protective effect. DESIGN Prospective animal study with concurrent control. SETTING Small animal laboratory. SUBJECTS Adult male Sprague-Dawley rats. INTERVENTIONS Mesenteric lymph and portal vein plasma were collected from male rats subjected to a 40% third-degree scald burn or sham burn. The biological effects of these lymph and plasma samples were tested for their ability to kill human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), increase HUVEC monolayer permeability, and activate polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), as reflected in CD11b adhesion molecule expression and superoxide production. Additionally, ileal specimens were harvested at the end of the experiment (6 hrs postburn) for histologic analysis. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Postburn mesenteric lymph produced during the first 2 hrs after burn injury and tested at a 5% concentration, but not sham-burn lymph or portal plasma from burned rats, was toxic for HUVECs resulting in cell death after an 18-hr incubation period. Similarly, only postburn lymph increased HUVEC monolayer permeability. Postburn lymph activated both rat and human PMNs as reflected in increased CD11b expression and augmentation of the phorbol myristate acetate-induced superoxide response. Neither sham-burn lymph nor postburn portal vein plasma activated PMNs. Both the burn and sham-burn lymph samples were sterile, indicating that the effects of burn lymph on the HUVECs or PMNs were not due to translocating bacteria. Last, an association was found between burn-induced gut injury and the production of toxic burn lymph. CONCLUSIONS Burn-induced gut injury results in the production of biologically active factors that are carried in the mesenteric lymph, but not the portal plasma, which injure endothelial cells and activate PMNs and thus could contribute to distant organ injury.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Unexpected immunomodulatory effects of colloids and crystalloids prompted an investigation of albumin's ability to prevent bone marrow (BM) suppression following trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS: laparotomy + MAP 30 for 90 mins). METHODS In vitro: Normal rat BM was plated for granulocyte-macrophage (CFU-GM) and erythrocyte colony forming units (BFU-E) with 2% v/v plasma from sham (T/SS) or T/HS rats and albumin (2-8 mg/mL). In vivo: Male rats (n = 4/group) were subjected to T/SS or T/HS and resuscitated with shed blood and twice the volume as Lactated Ringer's (LR) or blood and 1, 2, or 3 mL of albumin (50 mg/mL). Bone marrow harvested 3 hours post-resuscitation was plated for CFU-GM and BFU-E. RESULTS In vitro: T/HS plasma decreased both CFU-GM and BFU-E growth as compared with T/SS, whereas increasing doses of albumin showed dose-dependent improvement in progenitor growth (p < 0.05). In vivo: The suppression of BM red and white cell progenitor growth seen in T/HS+LR rats as compared with T/SS was fully prevented by as little as 1 mL of albumin (p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Small doses of albumin fully restore CFU-GM and BFU-E to sham values. We postulate that the binding of circulating toxic factors by albumin may play a role in this prevention of T/HS-induced BM suppression.
