BACKGROUND Fibrotic change is one of the important reasons for the poor prognosis
of patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The present study
investigated the effects of hydrogen-rich saline, a selective hydroxyl radical
scavenger, on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced pulmonary fibrosis. MATERIAL AND
METHODS Male ICR mice were divided randomly into 5 groups: Control, LPS-treated
plus vehicle treatment, and LPS-treated plus hydrogen-rich saline (2.5, 5, or 10
ml/kg) treatment. Twenty-eight days later, fibrosis was assessed by determination
of collagen deposition, hydroxyproline, and type I collagen levels. Development
of epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was identified by examining protein
expressions of E-cadherin and ?-smooth muscle actin (?-SMA). Transforming growth
factor (TGF)-?1 content, total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC), malondialdehyde
(MDA) content, catalase (CAT), and superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity were
determined. RESULTS Mice exhibited increases in collagen deposition,
hydroxyproline, type I collagen contents, and TGF-?1 production in lung tissues
after LPS treatment. LPS-induced lung fibrosis was associated with increased
expression of ?-SMA, as well as decreased expression of E-cadherin. In addition,
LPS treatment increased MDA levels but decreased T-AOC, CAT, and SOD activities
in lung tissues, indicating that LPS induced pulmonary oxidative stress.
Hydrogen-rich saline treatment at doses of 2.5, 5, or 10 ml/kg significantly
attenuated LPS-induced pulmonary fibrosis. LPS-induced loss of E-cadherin in lung
tissues was largely reversed, whereas the acquisition of ?-SMA was dramatically
decreased by hydrogen-rich saline treatment. In addition, hydrogen-rich saline
treatment significantly attenuated LPS-induced oxidative stress. CONCLUSIONS
Hydrogen-rich saline may protect against LPS-induced EMT and pulmonary fibrosis
through suppressing oxidative stress.
