Activation of calpains mediates early lung neutrophilic inflammation in ventilator-induced lung injury

Abstract: Lung inflammatory responses in the absence of infection are considered to be one of primary mechanisms of ventilator-induced lung injury. Here, we determined the role of calpain in the pathogenesis of lung inflammation attributable to mechanical ventilation. Male C57BL/6J mice were subjected to high (28 ml/kg) tidal volume ventilation for 2 h in the absence and presence of calpain inhibitor I (10 mg/kg). To address the isoform-specific functions of calpain 1 and calpain 2 during mechanical ventilation, we util… Show more

“…A well-established in vivo mouse model of VILI was utilized as described previously (12,19,40). Briefly, mice were anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection of a ketamine/xylazine mixture (75 mg/kg) and inhalation of 1% isoflurane for maintenance.…”

“…Western blot analysis of lysates of mouse resident alveolar macrophages and lung homogenates was performed as previously described (19,36,40). Briefly, fresh lung tissues were lysed on ice in the buffer containing 1 mM PMSF, 0.2 U/ml aprotinin, and 1 mM sodium orthovanadate.…”

“…In a ventilator-induced lung injury model, calpain inhibitors, or gene silencing, led to reduce neutrophil infiltration and edema [51]. In endotoxemia models, calpain activation also leads to damage of cardiac, lung, and muscle tissues in mice [29,30,52].…”

“…More recently, calpain inhibitors were shown to block IL-1α processing and release downstream of activators of the inflammasome, and IL-1α was required for neutrophil recruitment to the peritoneum in a sterile inflammation model [25]. Although release of both p33 and p17 were detected during sterile inflammation, the exact contributions of these cytokines to IL-1R1 signaling was not reported [25] [51]. In endotoxemia models, calpain activation also leads to damage of cardiac, lung, and muscle tissues in mice [29,30,52].…”
