Essential Role of Visfatin in Lipopolysaccharide and Colon Ascendens Stent Peritonitis-Induced Acute Lung Injury. Int J Mol Sci 2019; 20:ijms20071678. [PMID: 30987270 PMCID: PMC6480124 DOI: 10.3390/ijms20071678] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/11/2019] [Revised: 03/22/2019] [Accepted: 03/27/2019] [Indexed: 12/21/2022] Open
Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is a life-threatening syndrome characterized by acute and severe hypoxemic respiratory failure. Visfatin, which is known as an obesity-related cytokine with pro-inflammatory activities, plays a role in regulation of inflammatory cytokines. The mechanisms of ALI remain unclear in critically ill patients. Survival in ALI patients appear to be influenced by the stress generated by mechanical ventilation and by ALI-associated factors that initiate the inflammatory response. The objective for this study was to understand the mechanisms of how visfatin regulates inflammatory cytokines and promotes ALI. The expression of visfatin was evaluated in ALI patients and mouse sepsis models. Moreover, the underlying mechanisms were investigated using human bronchial epithelial cell lines, BEAS-2B and NL-20. An increase of serum visfatin was discovered in ALI patients compared to normal controls. Results from hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) and immunohistochemistry staining also showed that visfatin protein was upregulated in mouse sepsis models. Moreover, lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced visfatin expression, activated the STAT3/NFκB pathway, and increased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines, including IL1-β, IL-6, and TNF-α in human bronchial epithelial cell lines NL-20 and BEAS-2B. Co-treatment of visfatin inhibitor FK866 reversed the activation of the STAT3/NFκB pathway and the increase of pro-inflammatory cytokines induced by LPS. Our study provides new evidence for the involvement of visfatin and down-stream events in acute lung injury. Further studies are required to confirm whether the anti-visfatin approaches can improve ALI patient survival by alleviating the pro-inflammatory process.

Abstract
CONTEXT - Acute pulmonary injury may occur as a result of myriad direct or indirect pulmonary insults, often resulting in hypoxemic respiratory failure and clinical acute respiratory distress syndrome. Histologically, most patients will exhibit diffuse alveolar damage on biopsy, but other histologic patterns may be encountered, such as acute eosinophilic pneumonia, acute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia, and diffuse alveolar hemorrhage with capillaritis. OBJECTIVE - To review the diagnostic features of various histologic patterns associated with a clinical picture of acute lung injury, and to discuss key features in the differential diagnosis. DATA SOURCES - The review is drawn from pertinent peer-reviewed literature and the personal experience of the authors. CONCLUSIONS - Acute pulmonary injury is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. In addition to diffuse alveolar damage, pathologists should be aware of alternate histologic patterns of lung disease that may present with a similar clinical presentation because this may impact treatment decisions and disease outcome.

Krüppel-like factor 5 mediates proinflammatory cytokine expression in lipopolysaccharide-induced acute lung injury through upregulation of nuclear factor-κB phosphorylation in vitro and in vivo. Mediators Inflamm 2014; 2014:281984.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) is associated with an inflammation-mediated process, and the transcription factor, Krüppel-like factor 5 (KLF5), might play a crucial role in inflammatory lung disease. In this study, we evaluated KLF5, reactive oxygen species (ROS), and inflammatory responses in a lipopolysaccharide- (LPS-) induced ALI model to elucidate the role of KLF5 in ALI. Our data indicated that LPS upregulates proinflammatory cytokine expression in human bronchial epithelial cells in a dose-dependent manner. We observed upregulated KLF5 protein expression in human bronchial epithelial cells exposed to LPS, with peak expression 1 h after LPS treatment, and subsequent upregulation of p65 protein expression and p65 phosphorylation at Ser276. These results indicate that KLF5 mediates proinflammatory cytokine expression by upregulating nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) phosphorylation at p65 in response to LPS. LPS treatment also increased ROS production and simultaneously upregulated KLF5 expression and NF-κB translocation. N-acetylcysteine significantly reduced ROS levels and KLF5 and NF-κB translocation in nuclear extracts. Therefore, N-acetylcysteine pretreatment before LPS exposure reduces ROS, downregulates KLF5 expression, and subsequently reduces inflammatory responses by scavenging ROS. Overall, our study results indicate that KLF5 mediates proinflammatory cytokine expression through upregulation of NF-κB phosphorylation at p65 in LPS-induced ALI.

Abstract
Background LPS-binding protein (LBP) and its ligand CD14 are located upstream of the signaling pathway for LPS-induced inflammation. Blocking LBP and CD14 binding might prevent LPS-induced inflammation. In previous studies, we obtained a peptide analog (MP12) for the LBP/CD14 binding site and showed that this peptide analog had anti-endotoxin activity. In this study, we used in vitro directed evolution for this peptide analog to improve its in vivo and in vitro anti-endotoxin activity. Methods We used error-prone PCR (ep-PCR) and induced mutations in the C-terminus of LBP and attached the PCR products to T7 phages to establish a mutant phage display library. The positive clones that competed with LBP for CD14 binding was obtained by screening. We used both in vivo and in vitro experiments to compare the anti-endotoxin activities of a polypeptide designated P1 contained in a positive clone and MP12. Results 11 positive clones were obtained from among target phages. Sequencing showed that 9 positive clones had a threonine (T) to methionine (M) mutation in amino acid 287 of LBP. Compared to polypeptide MP12, polypeptide P1 significantly inhibited LPS-induced TNF-α expression and NF-κB activity in U937 cells (P<0.05). Compared to MP12, P1 significantly improved arterial oxygen pressure, an oxygenation index, and lung pathology scores in LPS-induced ARDS rats (P<0.05). Conclusion By in vitro directed evolution of peptide analogs for the LBP/CD14 binding site, we established a new polypeptide (P1) with a threonine (T)-to-methionine (M) mutation in amino acid 287 of LBP. This polypeptide had high anti-endotoxin activity in vitro and in vivo, which suggested that amino acid 287 in the C-terminus of LBP may play an important role in LBP binding with CD14.

Abstract
Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) continues to be a major cause of mortality in adult and pediatric critical care medicine. This article discusses the pulmonary sequelae associated with ALI and ARDS, the support of ARDS with mechanical ventilation, available adjunctive therapies, and experimental therapies currently being tested. It is hoped that further understanding of the fundamental biology, improved identification of the patient's inflammatory state, and application of therapies directed at multiple sites of action may ultimately prove beneficial for patients suffering from ALI/ARDS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To determine whether genetic variations in the gene coding for surfactant protein B are associated with lung injury in African American children with community-acquired pneumonia. DESIGN A prospective cohort genetic association study of lung injury in children with community-acquired pneumonia. SETTING Two major tertiary care children's hospitals. SUBJECTS African American children with community-acquired pneumonia (n = 395) either evaluated in the emergency department or admitted to the hospital. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Three hundred ninety-five African American children (14 days to 18 yrs of age) with community-acquired pneumonia were enrolled. Thirty-seven patients required mechanical ventilation and 26 of these were diagnosed with acute lung injury or acute respiratory distress syndrome. Genotyping was performed on seven linkage disequilibrium-tag single nucleotide polymorphisms in the surfactant protein B gene. Univariate analysis demonstrated two linkage disequilibrium-tag single nucleotide polymorphisms, rs1130866 (also known as SP-B + 1580 C/T) and rs3024793, were associated with the need for mechanical ventilation in African American children (p = .016 and p = .030, respectively). Multivariable analysis indicated that both of these single nucleotide polymorphisms are independently associated with need for mechanical ventilation (p = .040 and p = .012, respectively) as was rs7316 when its interaction with age was considered (p = .015). Multivariable analysis examining acute lung injury demonstrated a significant association of rs7316 with acute lung injury (p = .031). Haplotype analysis was also performed. Two haplotypes, GTGCGCG and ATATAAG, were associated with need for mechanical ventilation using either univariate (p = .041 and p = .043, respectively) or multivariable analysis (odds ratios of 2.62, p = .048, and 3.12, p = .033, respectively). CONCLUSIONS Genetic variations in the gene coding for surfactant protein B are associated with more severe lung injury as indicated by the association of specific single nucleotide polymorphism genotypes and haplotypes with the need for mechanical ventilation in African American children with community-acquired pneumonia.

Abstract
Supplementation of enteral nutritional formulas and parenteral nutrition lipid emulsions with omega-3 fatty acids is a recent area of research in patients with critical illness. It is hypothesized that omega-3 fatty acids may help reduce inflammation in critically ill patients, particularly those with sepsis and acute lung injury. The objective of this article is to review the data on supplementing omega-3 fatty acids during critical illness; enteral and parenteral supplemental nutrition are reviewed separately. The results of the research available to date are contradictory for both enteral and parenteral omega-3 fatty acid administration. Supplementation with omega-3 fatty acids may influence the acute inflammatory response in critically ill patients, but more research is needed before definitive recommendations about the routine use of omega-3 fatty acids in caring for critically ill patients can be made.

Abstract
CONTEXT Acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome are significant causes of pulmonary morbidity and are frequently fatal. These 2 entities have precise definitions from a clinical standpoint. Histologically, cases from patients with clinical acute lung injury typically exhibit diffuse alveolar damage, but other histologic patterns may occasionally be encountered such as acute fibrinous and organizing pneumonia, acute eosinophilic pneumonia, and diffuse hemorrhage with capillaritis. OBJECTIVE To review the diagnostic criteria for various histologic patterns associated with a clinical presentation of acute lung injury and to provide diagnostic aids and discuss the differential diagnosis. DATA SOURCES The review is drawn from pertinent peer-reviewed literature and the author's personal experience. CONCLUSIONS Acute lung injury remains a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. The pathologist should be aware of histologic patterns of lung disease other than diffuse alveolar damage, which are associated with a clinical presentation of acute lung injury. Identification of these alternative histologic findings, as well as identification of potential etiologic agents, especially infection, may impact patient treatment and disease outcome.

Abstract
Increasing evidence supports the contribution of genetic influences on susceptibility/severity in acute lung injury (ALI), a devastating syndrome requiring mechanical ventilation with subsequent risk for ventilator-associated lung injury (VALI). To identify VALI candidate genes, we determined that Brown Norway (BN) and Dahl salt-sensitive (SS) rat strains were differentially sensitive to VALI (tidal volume of 20 ml/kg, 85 breaths/min, 2 h) defined by bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) protein and leukocytes. We next exploited differential sensitivities and phenotyped both the VALI-sensitive BN and the VALI-resistant SS rat strains by expression profiling coupled to a bioinformatic-intense candidate gene approach (Significance Analysis of Microarrays, i.e., SAM). We identified 106 differentially expressed VALI genes representing gene ontologies such as "transcription" and "chemotaxis/cell motility." We mapped the chromosomal location of the differentially expressed probe sets and selected consomic SS rats with single BN introgressions of chromosomes 2, 13, and 16 (based on the highest density of probe sets) while also choosing chromosome 20 (low probe sets density). VALI exposure of consomic rats with introgressions of BN chromosomes 13 and 16 resulted in significant increases in both BAL cells and protein (compared to parental SS strain), whereas introgression of BN chromosome 2 displayed a large increase only in BAL protein. Introgression of BN chromosome 20 had a minimal effect. These results suggest that genes residing on BN chromosomes 2, 13, and 16 confer increased sensitivity to high tidal volume ventilation. We speculate that the consomic-microarray-SAM approach is a time- and resource-efficient tool for the genetic dissection of complex diseases including VALI.

Abstract
Fat embolism syndrome is a condition of acute respiratory distress following long-bone trauma. This condition may involve not only the lungs but also a number of other body systems. The pathophysiology is not as yet clearly understood, however, intravasation of fat from long-bone fractures may play a role. Early recognition of the severity of injury both on clinical and biochemical grounds and early surgical stabilization of long bones may help to decrease its incidence. However, the best surgical technique with which to do this stabilization has not yet been clearly determined. Surgical and pharmacological techniques have been developed in an attempt to either decrease the intravasation of fat during long-bone stabilization or block the inflammatory cascade with varying degrees of efficacy. Ongoing research focuses on both the prevention and treatment of this condition.

Abstract
Septic acute lung injury (ALI) causes high morbidity and mortality in intensive care service as a result of biotrauma and dysfunction in the lungs and other organ systems. We hypothesized that surfactant and/or inhaled nitric oxide (iNO) may have different effects in modulation of inflammatory injury in septic ALI. Twenty-four healthy, 6-9 kg piglets were anesthetized, and intraperitoneally injected with Escherichia coli, followed by a low tidal volume ventilation until sepsis and ALI developed within 4-6 h. They were then randomly treated in groups (n=6 each) as: control (C), inhaled NO at 10 ppm (NO), surfactant at 100mg/kg (Surf), or both surfactant and iNO (SNO). A normal control group (N) was sham-injected and similarly ventilated. Over the 24 h of treatment period, both Surf, and SNO groups had significantly improved PaO2/FiO2, dynamic compliance and resistance of respiratory system. At 24h, the best alveolar aeration and least protein leakage, the lowest wet-to-dry lung weight ratio and lung injury score were found in SNO. Activity of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-kappaB) and myeloperoxidase, interleukin 8 mRNA expression and melondialdehyde were significantly increased, and IL-10 mRNA decreased, in lung tissue of the C group, but were significantly altered in the SNO group, and moderately altered in either NO or Surf group. We conclude that the effects of lung protection by surfactant and/or iNO in this model may be different in modulation of inflammatory cytokine mRNA expression and activity of NF-kappaB, and iNO did not have adverse effects.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Clinical predictors for acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) have been studied in few prospective studies. Although transfusions are common in the intensive care unit, the role of submassive transfusion in non-trauma-related ARDS has not been studied. We describe here the clinical predictors of ARDS risk and mortality including the role of red cell transfusion. DESIGN Observational prospective cohort. SETTING Intensive care unit of Massachusetts General Hospital. PATIENTS We studied 688 patients with sepsis, trauma, aspiration, and hypertransfusion. INTERVENTIONS None. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Two hundred twenty-one (32%) subjects developed ARDS with a 60-day mortality rate of 46%. Significant predictors for ARDS on multivariate analyses included trauma (adjusted odds ratio [ORadj] 0.22, 95% confidence interval [CI] 0.09-0.53), diabetes (ORadj 0.58, 95% CI 0.36-0.92), direct pulmonary injury (ORadj 3.78, 95% CI 2.45-5.81), hematologic failure (ORadj 1.84, 95% CI 1.05-3.21), transfer from another hospital (ORadj 2.08, 95% CI 1.33-3.25), respiratory rate >33 breaths/min (ORadj 2.39, 95% CI 1.51-3.78), hematocrit >37.5% (ORadj 1.77, 95% CI 1.14-2.77), arterial pH <7.33 (ORadj 2.00, 95% CI 1.31-3.05), and albumin </=2.3 g/dL (ORadj 1.80, 95% CI 1.18-2.73). Packed red blood cell transfusion was associated with ARDS (ORadj 1.52, 95% CI 1.00-2.31, p = .05). Significant predictors for mortality in ARDS included age (ORadj 1.96, 95% CI 1.50-2.53), Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III score (ORadj 1.78, 95% CI 1.16-2.73), trauma (ORadj 0.075, 95% CI 0.006-0.96), corticosteroids before ARDS (ORadj 4.65, 95% CI 1.47-14.7), and arterial pH <7.22 (ORadj 2.32, 95% CI 1.02-5.25). Packed red blood cell transfusions were associated with increased mortality in ARDS (ORadj 1.10 per unit transfused; 95% CI 1.04-1.17) with a significant dose-dependent response (p = .02). CONCLUSIONS Important predictors for the development of and mortality in ARDS were identified. Packed red blood cell transfusion was associated with an increased development of and increased mortality in ARDS.

Abstract
Transfusion-related acute lung injury is a relatively uncommon transfusion-associated adverse effect occurring during or soon after an allogeneic blood transfusion. Transfusion-related acute lung injury is a complex syndrome that has many manifestations and has only recently been identified to be an important cause of transfusion-associated morbidity and mortality. But despite its increasing recognition, much about the pathogenesis, treatment, and prevention is poorly understood and often controversial. The purpose of this consensus conference was to bring together international experts in an effort to try to standardize a case definition, which could be used to enhance future understanding of transfusion-related acute lung injury including its epidemiology, pathogenesis, management, prevention, and research. These proceedings are being provided with a view to making available to the transfusion medicine community the considerable amount of important information presented at this consensus conference by the invited international panel of experts.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To evaluate the association between interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and interleukin-10 and clinical outcomes including mortality in patients with acute lung injury and to determine whether lower tidal volume ventilation was associated with a decrease in plasma cytokines in patients with acute lung injury. DESIGN Multiple-center, randomized trial. SETTING Intensive care units in ten university centers. PATIENTS The study included 861 patients enrolled in the National Heart, Lung and Blood Institute Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome Clinical Network trial of lower tidal volumes compared with traditional tidal volumes for acute lung injury. INTERVENTIONS Patients were randomized to a 6 mL/kg or a 12 mL/kg tidal volume strategy that has been previously described. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS Baseline plasma levels of interleukin-6, interleukin-8, and interleukin-10 were each associated with an increased risk of death in both logistic regression analyses controlling for ventilator group (odds ratio 1.63 per log-10 increment, 95% confidence interval 1.33-1.98; odds ratio 2.33 per log-10 increment, 95% confidence interval 1.79-3.03; odds ratio 2.02 per log-10 increment, 95% confidence interval 1.47-2.76, respectively) and multivariate analyses controlling for ventilation strategy, Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation III score, Pao2/Fio2 ratio, creatinine, platelet count, and vasopressor use (odds ratio 1.63 per log-10 increment, 95% confidence interval 0.93-1.49; odds ratio 1.73 per log-10 increment, 95% confidence interval 1.29-2.34; odds ratio 1.23 per log-10 increment, 95% confidence interval 0.86-1.76, respectively). Interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 levels were also associated with a significant decrease in ventilator free and organ failure free days. Patients with sepsis had the highest cytokine levels and the greatest risk of death per cytokine elevation. By day 3, the 6 mL/kg strategy was associated with a greater decrease in interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 levels. There was a 26% reduction in interleukin-6 (95% confidence interval, 12-37%) and a 12% reduction in interleukin-8 (95% confidence interval, 1-23%) in the 6 mL/kg group compared with the 12 mL/kg group. CONCLUSIONS In patients with acute lung injury, plasma interleukin-6 and interleukin-8 levels are associated with morbidity and mortality. The severity of inflammation varies with clinical risk factor, suggesting that clinical risk factor should be considered when both developing and testing therapeutic interventions. Low tidal volume ventilation is associated with a more rapid attenuation of the inflammatory response.

Abstract
Acute lung injury (ALI) and its more severe form, the acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), are syndromes of acute respiratory failure that result from acute pulmonary edema and inflammation. The development of ALI/ARDS is associated with several clinical disorders including direct pulmonary injury from pneumonia and aspiration as well as indirect pulmonary injury from trauma, sepsis, and other disorders such as acute pancreatitis and drug overdose. Although mortality from ALI/ARDS has decreased in the last decade, it remains high. Despite two major advances in treatment, low VT ventilation for ALI/ARDS and activated protein C for severe sepsis (the leading cause of ALI/ARDS), additional research is needed to develop specific treatments and improve understanding of the pathogenesis of these syndromes. The NHLBI convened a working group to develop specific recommendations for future ALI/ARDS research. Improved understanding of disease heterogeneity through use of evolving biologic, genomic, and genetic approaches should provide major new insights into pathogenesis of ALI. Cellular and molecular methods combined with animal and clinical studies should lead to further progress in the detection and treatment of this complex disease.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a major contributor to morbidity and mortality in trauma patients. Although many injuries and conditions are believed to be associated with ARDS independent risk factors in trauma patients and their relative importance in development of the syndrome are undefined. The aim of this project is to identify independent risk factors for the development of ARDS in blunt trauma patients and to examine the contributions of each factor to ARDS development. Patients with ARDS were identified from the registry of a Level I trauma center over a 4.5-year period. Records were reviewed for demographics, injury characteristics, transfusion requirements, and hospital course. Variables examined included age >65 years, Injury Severity Score (ISS) >25, hypotension on admission (systolic blood pressure <90), significant metabolic acidosis (base deficit <-5.0), severe brain injury as shown by a Glasgow Coma Scale score (GCS) <8 on admission, 24-hour transfusion requirement >10 units packed red blood cells, pulmonary contusion (PC), femur fracture, and major infection (pneumonia, empyema, or intraabdominal abscess). Both univariate and stepwise logistic regression were used to identify independent risk factors, and receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) analysis was used to determine the relative contribution of each risk factor. A total of 4397 patients having sustained blunt trauma were admitted to the intensive care unit and survived >24 hours between October 1995 and May 2000. Of these patients 200 (4.5%) developed ARDS. All studied variables were significantly associated with ARDS in univariate analyses. Stepwise logistic regression, however, demonstrated age >65 years, ISS >25, hypotension on admission, 24-hour transfusion requirement >10 units, and pulmonary contusion as independent risk factors, whereas admission metabolic acidosis, femur fracture, infection, and severe brain injury were not. Using a model based on the logistic regression equation derived yields better than 80 per cent discrimination in ARDS patients. The risk factors providing the greatest contribution to ARDS development were ISS >25 (ROC area 0.72) and PC (ROC area 0.68) followed by large transfusion requirement (ROC area 0.56), admission hypotension (ROC area 0.57), and age >65 (ROC area 0.54). Independent risk factors for ARDS in blunt trauma include ISS >25, PC, age >65 years, hypotension on admission, and 24-hour transfusion requirement >10 units but not admission metabolic acidosis, femur fracture, infection, or severe brain injury. Assessment of these variables allows accurate estimate of risk in the majority of cases, and the most potent contributors to the predictive value of the model are ISS >25 and PC. Improvement in understanding of which patients are actually at risk may allow for advances in treatment as well as prevention in the future.

Abstract
Acute respiratory distress syndrome is a devastating syndrome of lung injury following known risk factors, with a persistently high mortality. A consensus conference definition of ARDS has been adopted by clinical researchers, but potential problems remain. ARDS may represent more than one entity, and radiographic and mechanical differences between pulmonary versus extrapulmonary initiated ARDS have been described. There is increasing recognition of inflammatory mediators in the pathophysiology of acute lung injury. Surfactant abnormalities contribute to the associated lung dysfunction. A growing body of evidence supports the presence of VILI and a potential mechanism for developing MOSF, and has led to new management strategies. The importances of apoptosis to the repair process, and mechanisms that may lead to persistent fibrosis, such as the activation of the coagulant pathway with fibrin deposition, are increasingly recognized.

Abstract
Pulmonary surfactant protein D (SP-D) is expressed in alveolar type II and bronchiolar epithelial cells and is secreted into alveoli and conducting airways. However, SP-D has also been measured in serum and is increased in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome, pulmonary fibrosis, and alveolar proteinosis. To demonstrate that SP-D can be measured in rat serum, we instilled rats with keratinocyte growth factor, which produces type II cell hyperplasia and an increase in SP-D in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). To evaluate serum SP-D as a biomarker of lung injury, we examined several injury models. In rats treated with 1 unit of bleomycin, serum SP-D was elevated on days 3, 7, 14, and 28 after instillation, and SP-D mRNA was increased in focal areas as detected by in situ hybridization. However, there was no increase in whole lung SP-D mRNA when the expression was normalized to whole lung 18S rRNA. After instillation of 2 units of bleomycin, the serum levels of SP-D were higher, and SP-D was also increased in BALF and lung homogenates. In another model of subacute injury, serum SP-D was increased in rats treated with paraquat plus oxygen. Finally to evaluate acute lung injury, we instilled rats with HCl; SP-D was increased at 4 h after instillation. Our data indicate that serum SP-D may be a useful indicator of lung injury and type II cell hyperplasia in rats.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is a life-supporting process employed in the management of respiratory failure. Over the years, our understanding of the pathophysiology of lung injury has greatly improved, and has aided the technological development of ventilatory modes that are more patient 'sensitive' and less traumatizing to the lungs. This review will discuss the fundamental modes of mechanical ventilation, and present current concepts regarding patient-ventilator interaction that either promote lung healing and weaning from positive pressure ventilation or delay recovery because of the injudicious use of ventilatory modalities that are incapable of meeting the ventilatory demands of the patient on a breath-by-breath basis. In addition, the current strategy for mechanical ventilation in acute lung injury and acute respiratory distress syndrome will be summarized.

Abstract
Patients receiving high-dose preparation for stem cell transplantation are at risk for organ dysfunction (OD). Signs of early OD include hypoxia, mental status changes, and liver dysfunction. These early signs have not been correlated with potential cytokine mediators. We compared plasma concentrations of IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-10 in OD patients and controls. Cytokines were measured before preparation, 5 days before OD, day of OD, and 5 days after OD. TNF-alpha and IL-10 were not measurable prior to preparation. IL-10 was more likely to be measurable in OD patients than in controls 5 days prior to onset of OD (P = 0.039), on the day of OD (P = 0.023), and 5 days later (P < 0.0001). TNF-alpha was more likely to be measurable only on the day of OD (P = 0.0035). IL-6 was significantly elevated in OD patients at all time points. Patients who had measurable IL-6 on admission were 5.1 times more likely to develop OD (95% CI = 1.4-17.9; P = 0.011). Five days prior to OD for each 100 pg/ml increase in IL-6, patients were 2.75 times more likely to develop OD (95% CI = 1.3-5.8; P = 0.0087). The early elevation of IL-6 in patients who develop OD may help identify a high risk group where preventive therapies can be evaluated.

Abstract
Acute lung injury occurs as a result of a cascade of cellular events initiated by either infectious or noninfectious inflammatory stimuli. An elevated level of proinflammatory mediators combined with a decreased expression of anti-inflammatory molecules is a critical component of lung inflammation. Expression of proinflammatory genes is regulated by transcriptional mechanisms. Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) is one critical transcription factor required for maximal expression of many cytokines involved in the pathogenesis of acute lung injury. Activation and regulation of NF-kappa B are tightly controlled by a complicated signaling cascade. In acute lung injury caused by infection of bacteria, Toll-like receptors play a central role in initiating the innate immune system and activating NF-kappa B. Anti-inflammatory cytokines such as interleukin-10 and interleukin-13 have been shown to suppress inflammatory processes through inhibiting NF-kappa B activation. NF-kappa B can interact with other transcription factors, and these interactions thereby lead to greater transcriptional selectivity. Modification of transcription is likely to be a logical therapeutic target for acute lung injury.
