Acute lung injury (ALI) is classified as a devastating pulmonary disorder contributing to significant incidence and fatality rate. Irbesartan (IRB) is an angiotensin II receptor blocker that has been proposed to protect against oleic acid-induced ALI. To this end, the current study is concentrated on ascertaining the role of IRB in ALI and figuring out the probable action mechanism. First, cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) appraised the viability of human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMVECs) exposed to ascending concentrations of IRB. HPMVEC injury model and a mouse model of ALI induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) were pretreated by IRB. In vitro, cell viability was estimated by CCK-8 assay, and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) release was tested by LDH assay kit. Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and Western blotting estimated the expression levels of inflammatory factors. Fluorescein isothiocyanate–dextran was used to assess HPMVEC permeability. Western blotting examined the expression of adherent and tight junction proteins. In vivo, hematoxylin and eosin staining evaluated lung tissue damage and lung wet/dry (W/D) weight was measured. ELISA analyzed the levels of inflammatory factors in the serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), and Western blotting examined the expression of inflammatory factors. The total cell, neutrophil, and macrophage numbers in BALF were determined using a cell counter. Lung capillary permeability was assayed by Evans blue albumin and total protein concentration in BALF was measured using bicinchoninic acid method. Immunofluorescence assay and Western blotting examined the expression of adherent and tight junction proteins in lung tissues. It was observed that IRB dose-dependently enhanced the viability while reduced LDH release, inflammatory response as well as permeability in LPS-challenged HPMVECs in vitro. In addition, LPS-stimulated lung tissue damage, pulmonary edema, inflammatory response as well as lung capillary permeability in vivo were all reversed following IRB treatment. Collectively, IRB treatment might elicit protective behaviors against LPS-triggered ALI. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
