Abstract

Background: The pathophysiology of acute respiratory distress syndrome with sepsis is acute lung injury (ALI) that's' caused by endotoxin (LPS). We evaluate effects of moxifloxacin on LPS-induced ALI in a rat model. Material and Method: The rats were divided into 3 groups as the control group (C), the LPS insult group (L), and the LPS+moxifloxacin treated group (L-M). ALI was induced by endotracheal instillation of E.coli LPS, then moxifloxacin was given in 30 minutes. Five hours later, we checked the lung weight/body weight ratio(the L/BW ratio), the protein & neutrophils in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), the myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity & the malondialdehyde (MDA) content, the expressions of cytosolic and secretory phospholipase $A_2$ (c, $sPLA_2$), and the morphology of the lung with using a light microscope. Result: The L/BW ratio, the protein content and the neutrophil count in the BALF, and the MPO activity and the MDA content in lung were significantly increased in group L compared to group C, and these factors were markedly decreased in group L-M compare to group L. The $cPLA_2$ expression and the $sPLA_2$ expression were increased in group L and the $cPLA_2$ expression was decreased in group L-M. Yet the $sPLA_2$ expression was not changed in group L-M. Morphologically, many inflammatory findings were observed in group L, but not in group L-M. Conclusion: Many of the inflammatory changes of ALI that were caused by LPS insult were ameliorated by moxifloxacin treatment.

배경: 패혈증에 동반된 급성호흡곤란증후군의 병태생리는 내독소에 의해 유발된 급성폐손상이다. 이 연구에서 우리는 내독소로 인해 유발된 급성 폐손상에서 moxifloxacin의 영향을 알아보고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법: 백서를 대조군(C), 내독소처리군(L), 내독소-moxifloxacin처리군(L-M)으로 나누었다. 대장균의 내독소를 기관 내 분무하여 급성폐손상을 유발하였고 L-M군에서는 내독소 분무 30분 후 moxifloxacin을 투여하였다. 내독소 투여 5시간 후 폐질량/체중비, 폐세척액 내의 단백함량, 폐세척액 내의 호중구 수, 폐장 내 myeloperoxidase (MPO) 활성도, 폐장 내 malondialdehyde (MDA) 함량을 측정하였고, 폐장 내 세포질형 $phospholipaseA_2$ ($cPLA_2$)와 분비형 $phospholipaseA_2$ ($sPLA_2$)의 발현을 관찰하고 광학현미경을 이용하여 형태학적인 분석을 시행하였다. 결과: 폐질량/체중비, 폐세척액 내의 단백함량, 폐세척액 내의 호중구 수, 폐장 내 myeloperoxidase (MPO) 활성도, 폐장 내 malondialdehyde (MDA) 함량은 L군에서 대조군 보다 유의하게 증가되어 있었고, L-M군은 L군보다 의미있게 낮은 것으로 나타났다. L군에서 $cPLA_2$$sPLA_2$의 발현은 증가되어 있었고 L-M군에서는 $cPLA_2$의 발현이 감소되어 있었다. 그러나 L-M군에서 $sPLA_2$의 발현은 L군과 차이가 없었다. 형태학적 분석으로 L군에서 많은 염증성 소견들을 관찰할 수 있었으나 L-M군에서는 관찰할 수 없었다. 결론: 내독소에 의해 유발된 급성폐손상의 많은 염증성 변화들이 moxifloxacin처리에 의해 소멸됨을 관찰할 수 있었다.
