Prevention of trauma/hemorrhagic shock-induced lung apoptosis by IL-6-mediated activation of Stat3.

ABSTRACT: Acute lung injury (ALI) occurs in up to 37% of patients following trauma/hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) and, in other settings, is due to alveolar epithelial cell (AEC) apoptosis. To determine if AEC apoptosis is a key contributor to ALI following T/HS and whether or not signal transducer and activator of translation (Stat)3 activation can prevent it, rats were pretreated with a Stat3 inhibitor or placebo and subjected to T/HS or sham protocol and resuscitated without or with interleukin (IL)-6. T/HS induced apoptosis in up to 15% of lung cells, 82% of which were AEC. Apoptosis increased with increasing duration of shock and required resuscitation. IL-6 treatment stimulated lung Stat3 activation and prevented AEC apoptosis. Pretreatment of rats with a Stat3 inhibitor blocked the antiapoptotic effect of IL-6. Mice deficient in Stat3 beta, a naturally occurring dominant negative isoform of Stat3, were resistant to T/HS-induced lung apoptosis. T/HS altered the expression of 87% of apoptosis-related genes. IL-6 treatment normalized expression of 75% of the genes altered by T/HS; Stat3 inhibition prevented normalization of 65% of the gene whose expression was normalized by IL-6. Thus, T/HS-induced AEC apoptosis, which depended on the duration of hypotension, required resuscitation and was prevented by IL-6-mediated activation of Stat3, which acted to normalize the apoptosis transcriptome.

Project description:The etiology of trauma-hemorrhage shock-induced acute lung injury has been difficult to elucidate due, at least in part, to the inability of in vivo studies to separate the non-injurious pulmonary effects of trauma-hemorrhage from the tissue injurious ones. To circumvent this in vivo limitation, we utilized a model of trauma-hemorrhagic shock (T/HS) in which T/HS-lung injury was abrogated by dividing the mesenteric lymph duct. In this way, it was possible to separate the pulmonary injurious response from the non-injurious systemic response to T/HS by comparing the pulmonary molecular response of rats subjected to T/HS which did and did not develop lung injury as well as to non-shocked rats. Utilizing high-density oligonucleotide arrays and treatment group comparisons of whole lung tissue collected at 3 hours after the end of the shock or sham-shock period, 139 of the 8,799 assessed genes were differentially expressed. Experiment Overall Design: Four groups of rats (n=3) were studied in order to identify changes in pulmonary gene expression associated with T/HS, both in the presence and absence of lung injury. These included trauma-sham shock (T/SS) rats which had a laparotomy (trauma) but were not subjected to hemorrhagic shock. These rats had no lung injury and served as controls for rats which were subjected to T/HS (laparotomy plus 90 min of shock) and had lung injury. Differences in gene expression between these two groups would represent both the effects of hemorrhagic shock as well as lung injury. To distinguish the gene response of hemorrhagic shock from the gene response associated with lung injury, gene expression was also compared between T/HS rats (hemorrhage and lung injury) and rats subjected to T/HS plus lymph duct ligation (T/HS-LDL), since the T/HS-LDL rats experienced hemorrhagic shock but had no measurable lung injury. Lastly, to identify hemorrhagic shock- modified genes, the pulmonary gene response of T/HS-LDL (hemorrhage without lung injury) were compared to rats subjected to T/SS plus LDL (no hemorrhage or lung injury). Three hours after the end of the 90 min shock or sham-shock period (i.e. 4.5 hrs after the induction of T/HS), the rats were sacrificed and specimens harvested for genechip analysis and histology.
