Superoxide mediates tight junction complex dissociation in cyclically stretched lung slices

Abstract We found that stretching Type I rat alveolar epithelial cell (RAEC) monolayers at magnitudes that correspond to high tidal-volume mechanical ventilation results in the production of reactive oxygen species, including nitric oxide and superoxide. Scavenging superoxide with Tiron eliminated t...
