Ascorbate and deferoxamine administration after chlorine exposure decrease mortality and lung injury in miceSotirios G Zarogiannis
Department of Anesthesiology, School of Medicine and Public Health, University of Alabama at Birmingham, 35294, USA
Am J Respir Cell Mol Biol 45:386-92. 2011..Administration of ascorbate and deferoxamine reduces mortality and decreases lung injury through reduction of alveolar-capillary permeability, inflammation, and epithelial sloughing and lipid peroxidation...
Mitigation of chlorine gas lung injury in rats by postexposure administration of sodium nitriteAmit K Yadav
Departments of Environmental Health Sciences, Schools of Public Health and Medicine, University of Alabama at Birmingham, USA
Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 300:L362-9. 2011..F(2)-isoprostane levels increased at 6 and 24 h after Cl(2) exposure in NO(2)(-)- and saline-injected rats. This is the first demonstration that systemic NO(2)(-) administration mitigates airway and epithelial injury...
