ABSTRACT
Objective:
To investigate the effects of methylprednisolone(MP)on pneumocyte apoptosis during lung ischemia/reperfusion injury in rats and to study the possible role of MP in pneumocyte apoptosis.Methods:
Forty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats used for unilateral lung ischemia/reperfusion model were randomly divided into three groupssham operation group(Sh group),ischemia/reperfusion group(I/R group),and methylprednisolone group(MP group).Each group has two subgroups of three hours and six hours.Apoptosis rate in lung tissue was detected by the way of Annexin-V-PI in flow cytometer.Expression of I?B-? in lung was observed by immunohistochemical stain.The index of quantitative assessment of histological lung injury(IQA),the wet to dry weight ratio(W/D),the pathological and ultrastructure changes of lung tissue were measured.Results:
Apoptosis rate,W/D,IQA of lung tissue were significantly higher in I/R group than which in Sh group(P
