Celastrol attenuates ventilator induced lung injury in mouse through inhibition of MAPK pathway
Previous studies have shown that celastrol has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-tumor activities, but little is known about its protective effects on ventilator induced lung injury (VILI). This study is aimed to investigate the effects of celastrol on VILI and explore its potential mechani...

Zusammenfassung: | Previous studies have shown that celastrol has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative and anti-tumor activities, but little is known about its protective effects on ventilator induced lung injury (VILI). This study is aimed to investigate the effects of celastrol on VILI and explore its potential mechanism.
A total of 40 ICR male mice aged 7-9 weeks were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=10 per group): control group (Con), control + celastrol group (Con+Ce), mechanical ventilation group (Ven) and mechanical ventilation + celastrol group (Ven+Ce). The lungs were collected for histological examination, detection of W/D, and MPO, MDA, SOD, inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α) by ELISA, p-P
and p-JNK 1/2 protein by Western blotting, and collagen-1 and TGF-β mRNA expression by RT-PCR.
The W/D in the Ven group was significantly higher than the W/D in the Con group and the Ven+Ce group (both P |
