1. Vitamin B6 reduces oxidative stress in lungs and liver in experimental sepsis
Abstract Abstract: Sepsis is a life-threatening organ dysfunction induced by a disrupted host response to infecting pathogens. Inflammation and oxidative stress are intrinsically related to sepsis progression and organ failure. Vitamin B6 is an important cellular cofactor for metabolic processes and has anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. We aimed

2. Short-term effects of stored homologous red blood cell transfusion on cardiorespiratory function and inflammation: an experimental study in a hypovolemia model
The pathophysiological mechanisms associated with the effects of red blood cell (RBC) transfusion on cardiopulmonary function and inflammation are unclear. We developed an experimental model of homologous 14-days stored RBC transfusion in hypovolemic swine to evaluate the short-term effects of transfusion on cardiopulmonary system and inflammation. Sixteen h

3. Tangeretin has anti-asthmatic effects via regulating PI3K and Notch signaling and modulating Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokine balance in neonatal asthmatic mice
Asthma is a chronic allergic disease characterized by airway inflammation, airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR), and mucus hypersecretion. T-lymphocytes are involved in the pathogenesis of asthma, mediating airway inflammatory reactions by secreting cytokines. The phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and Notch signaling pathways are associated with T cell signaling

4. The effects of aqueous extract of babassu (Orbignya phalerata) on the pleura and lung parenchyma in rats
PURPOSE: To evaluate macro and microscopically, changes following the use of the aqueous extract of babassu (Orbignya phalerata) in the lung parenchyma and pleura of rats. METHODS: Sixty adult male rats with average weight of 350 g, were randomized into two groups of 30 animals (experimental and control) further divided into sub-groups of 10 to be sacrific

5. Effect of hypertonic saline treatment on the inflammatory response after hydrochloric acid-induced lung injury in pigs
OBJECTIVES:Hypertonic saline has been proposed to modulate the inflammatory cascade in certain experimental conditions, including pulmonary inflammation caused by inhaled gastric contents. The present study aimed to assess the potential anti-inflammatory effects of administering a single intravenous dose of 7.5% hypertonic saline in an experimental model of

6. Effects of oxygen in lungs of rats
PURPOSE: To analyze microscopically the effects of different concentrations of oxygen in the lungs of rats. METHODS: There were 20 rats distributed in three experimental groups (concentration of oxygen to 40%, 70% and 100%) and a control group. The animals were exposed to the oxygen in a chamber of acrylic during three days and after exposition, the animals

7. Effects of atropine and propranolol on lung inflammation in experimental envenomation: comparison of two buthidae venoms
Background Previous works had shown that scorpion venom induced neurotransmitter elevation and an inflammatory response associated with various anatomo-pathological modifications. The most dangerous scorpions species in Algeria responsible for these effects are Androctonus australis hector (Aah) and Androctonus amoreuxi (Aam). Results Comparison of the phys

8. Simvastatin attenuates neutrophil recruitment in one-lung ventilation model in rats
PURPOSE: To investigate the anti-inflammatory effects of simvastatin in rats undergoing one-lung ventilation (OLV) followed by lung re-expansion. METHODS: Male Wistar rats (n=30) were submitted to 1-h OLV followed by 1-h lung re-expansion. Treated group received simvastatin (40 mg/kg for 21 days) previous to OLV protocol. Control group received no treatment

9. Avaliação da resposta inflamatória pulmonar de suínos submetidos a lesão pulmonar aguda induzida por ácido clorídrico e tratados com solução salina hipertônica / Lung inflammatory response in pigs submitted to acute pulmonary injury by hydrochloric acid and treated with hypertonic saline
INTRODUÇÃO: A lesão pulmonar aguda (LPA) decorrente de aspiração do conteúdo gástrico é freqüente em pacientes com nível de consciência comprometido e depressão dos reflexos de vias aéreas. A solução salina hipertônica (HS) a 7,5% apresenta resultados ainda controversos quanto ao seu potencial efeito protetor na resposta inflamatória pulmona

10. Efeito da pentoxifilina e da solução salina hipertônica na isquemia/reperfusão intestinal e suas consequências no pulmão: estudo experimental em ratos / The effect of pentoxifylline and hypertonic saline in intestinal ischemia / reperfusion and their consequences in the lung: an experimental study in rats
Isquemia e reperfusão (I/R) de vasos mesentéricos que acarretam insuficiência vascular aguda são acompanhadas de insuficiência em múltiplos órgãos e estão associados a altas morbidade e mortalidade. Os benefícios da solução hipertônica e da pentoxifilina foram testados isoladamente e em conjunto para melhorar o fluxo sanguíneo e o estado de oxi

11. Estudo da ativação eosinofílica e de matriz extracelular de tecido pulmonar periférico em cobaias com inflamação alérgica pulmonar: efeitos do tratamento com dexametasona e antagonista do receptor do cisteinil-leucotrieno D4
Aims: Compare the effects of montelukast or dexamethasone treatments on eosinophilic recruitment, eotaxin, RANTES, fibronectin, IGF-I and NF-B positive cells of distal lung parenchyma and also in airway walls of guinea pigs (GP) with chronic allergic inflammation. Methods: GP were inhaled with ovalbumin (OVA group-2x/week/4weeks). After 4th inhalation, GP we

12. Evaluation of lung function and histopathology in an experimental model of chronic allergic pulmonary inflammation: effects of reduced cholinergic function in genetically modified mice / Avaliação da função e da histopatologia pulmonar em modelo experimental de inflamação pulmonar alérgica crônica: efeitos da redução da função colinérgica em camundongos geneticamente modificados
INTRODUÇÃO: A Asma Brônquica é caracterizada por obstrução ao fluxo aéreo, reversível ou não, e processo inflamatório pulmonar, caracterizado principalmente por eosinofilia. A persistência da inflamação pode induzir processo de reparo pulmonar associado à redução progressiva da função pulmonar. A recente descrição do sistema colinérgico
