Mouse gene expression profiling in ventilator-induced lung injury

ABSTRACT: In this model of ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI), we compared the gene expression profile of whole lungs extracted from sponaneously breathing mice (control, c) or mouse submitted to 8 hours mechanical venitlation with 12 ml/kg tidal volume 2cmH2O of positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP) (ventilation, v). Spontaneously breathing NOD/shi mice were randomized to control (n=3) or ventilation (n=5) condition. In brief, mice were anesthetized with the injection of ketamine (65 mg/kg, ip), acepromazine (2 mg/kg, ip) and xylazine (13 mg/kg, ip)(Henry Schein Inc., Melville, NY). Once deep sedation was achieved, a tracheostomy was performed and a PE-10 cannula was inserted in the trachea and stabilized with silk ligature. Control animals were immediately sacrificied with a supra-physiological dose of ketamine (300 mg/kg, ip). For ventilated mice, the cannula was connected to a custom built Voltek rodent ventilator (Voltek Enterprises, Toronto, CA). We ventilated mice for 8 hours using 2cmH2O positive end expiratory pressure (PEEP), inflating the lungs every hour to 20 cmH2O pressure as we have previously described. (16). The chest muscle was paralyzed with the injection of pancurorium (1mg/kg, ip)(Sigma-Aldrich) in ventilated mice to avoid spontaneous breathing. Heart rate and respiratory rate was continuously monitored and additional anesthesia was provided if a >15% increase in these parameters was detected. The animal protocol was approved by the BWH Institutional Animal Care and Use Committee (protocol #04477). Ventilated animals At the end of the each experiment, the animals were sacrificed with a supra-physiological dose of ketamine (300 mg/kg, ip). Subsequently, the chest cavity was opened, and the right lung was isolated and ligated at the main bronchus.Lungs were harvested and snap frozen in liquid nitrogen for total RNA extraction.

Project description:Background: The aim of this study is to improve our understanding of the mechanisms underlying the function of corticosteriods in the limb muscles of ICU patients with acute quadriplegic myopathy (AQM) by using a unique porcine ICU model, i.e., 5-day longitudinal experiments where animals are sedated, mechanically ventilated and exposed to factor triggering AQM that is hydrocortisone. Results: An increased expression of genes involved in kinase activity, cell cycle regulation and transcriptional regulation. A decreased expression in genes regulating heat shock proteins, cytoskeletal & sarcomeric and oxidative stress response were also apparent. Therefore, it appears that CS has an additive deleterious role in acute quadriplegic myopathywere also apparent. Conclusions: CS induced molecular mechanisms involving kinase activity and heat shock protein genes were forwarded as probable mechanisms underlying the decreased force generating capacity. Eight female domestic piglets (Sus scrofa, average body weight 26.4 kg) were used in this study. Piglets were immobilized by anesthesia and mechanically ventilated via a tracheotomy for a period of five days. During this study period, the animals were sedated using isoflurane inhalation (Abbott Laboratories, Chicago, Il, USA, 0.8 - 1.3% end-tidal concentration) supplemented by intravenous bolus doses of morphine and ketamine as needed. Core body temperature (blood) was maintained in the range of 38.5 - 40M-BM-0C by a servo controlled heating pad. The animals received intravenous crystalloid fluid (Ringeracetat) to maintain stable blood pressure and urinary output and a glucose infusion (Rehydrex, Fresenius Kabi, Stockholm, Sweden, 25 mg glucose /mL) in the range of 0.5 - 1.5 mg/kg/minute to decrease the effects of catabolism. Each animal received prophylactic streptomycin 750 mg/d and bensylpenicillin 600 mg/d (Streptocillin Vet, Boeringer-Ingelheim, Hellerup, Denmark). Arterial blood gas analysis as well as electrolytes and blood glucose levels were monitored regularly and kept in the normal range throughout the study period. A neuromuscular blocking agent (NMBA) was administered as a continuous infusion of pancuronium bromide 0.1mg/kg/h (Pavolun; Organon, Boxtel, The Netherlands) for 5days while a corticosteroid (CS) was given as bolus doses of hydrocortisone. Keywords: Treatment, immobilization, muscle function.
