Augmented lung injury due to interaction between hyperoxia and mechanical ventilationScott E Sinclair
Departments of Medicine and Physiology, University of Tennessee, Memphis, TN 38163, USA
Crit Care Med 32:2496-501. 2004..Mechanical overdistension and hyperoxia can independently cause lung injury, yet little is known about their combined effects. We hypothesized that hyperoxia exacerbates lung injury caused by large tidal volume ventilation...
Therapeutic hypercapnia and ventilation-perfusion matching in acute lung injury: low minute ventilation vs inspired CO2Scott E Sinclair
Department of Medicine, University of Tennessee, 956 Court Ave, Room H314, Memphis, TN 38163, USA
Chest 130:85-92. 2006..We hypothesized the presence of hypercapnic acidosis from inspired carbon dioxide (ICD) would improve gas exchange in ALI and would be superior to that of low minute ventilation (LVe) produced by reduced respiratory rate, rather than Vt...
Positive end-expiratory pressure alters the severity and spatial heterogeneity of ventilator-induced lung injury: an argument for cyclical airway collapseScott E Sinclair
Department of Medicine, University of Tennessee, TN, USA
J Crit Care 24:206-11. 2009..We hypothesized that mechanical ventilation in the absence of positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) causes VILI to be more severe and regionally variable as compared with PEEP = 8 cm H(2)O...
Deletion of apoptosis signal-regulating kinase-1 prevents ventilator-induced lung injury in micePatrudu S Makena
Department of Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, USA
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol 46:461-9. 2012..ASK-1 is an important regulator of lung injury and apoptosis in this model. Further study is needed to determine the mechanism of lung injury and apoptosis by ASK-1 and its downstream mediators in the lung...
CXCR4 regulates migration of lung alveolar epithelial cells through activation of Rac1 and matrix metalloproteinase-2Manik C Ghosh
Department of Physiology, Univ of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN 38163, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 302:L846-56. 2012..Similar results were obtained with shRNA knockdown of CXCR4. These findings may help identify a therapeutic target for augmenting epithelial repair following acute lung injury...
Lung injury caused by high tidal volume mechanical ventilation and hyperoxia is dependent on oxidant-mediated c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase activationPatrudu S Makena
Dept of Medicine, Univ of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, TN 38163, USA
J Appl Physiol 111:1467-76. 2011..NAC protects lung injury and apoptosis by inhibiting ROS-mediated activation of JNK and downstream proapoptotic signaling...
Hypercapnic acidosis is protective in an in vivo model of ventilator-induced lung injuryScott E Sinclair
Department of Medicine, Division of Pulmonary and Critical Care Medicine, University of Washington, BB 1253 HSB Box 356522, Seattle, WA 98195 6522, USA
Am J Respir Crit Care Med 166:403-8. 2002..18 x 10(5) versus 2.84 x 10(5) +/- 0.28 x 10(5) nucleated cells/ml; p = 0.021), and injury score (7.0 +/- 3.3 versus 0.7 +/- 0.9; p < 0.0001). We conclude that hypercapnic acidosis is protective against VILI in this model...
Spatial distribution of sequential ventilation during mechanical ventilation of the uninjured lung: an argument for cyclical airway collapse and expansionScott E Sinclair
Department of Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Sciences Center, 956 Court Ave E222, Memphis, TN 38163 USA
BMC Pulm Med 10:25. 2010..This regional injury heterogeneity was abolished by the application of PEEP = 8 cm H2O. We hypothesized that the spatial distribution of lung injury correlates with areas in which cyclical airway collapse and recruitment occurs...
Preexposure to hyperoxia causes increased lung injury and epithelial apoptosis in mice ventilated with high tidal volumesPatrudu S Makena
Department of Medicine, University of Tennessee Health Science Center, Memphis, Tennessee 38163, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 299:L711-9. 2010..Immunohistochemistry and in vitro stretch studies showed caspase cleavage in alveolar epithelial cells. In conclusion, preexposure to HO followed by HV produced severe lung injury associated with alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis...
Prolonged glucocorticoid treatment and secondary prevention in acute respiratory distress syndromeG Umberto Meduri
