Antifibrotic Effect of Combined Treatment with Neuroleptic Drug and Immobilized Hyaluronidase in Pulmonary Fibrosis

Abstract: Using the model of lung fibrosis induced by intratracheal administration of bleomycin we studied anti-fibrotic activity of combined treatment with neuroleptic haloperidol and hyaluronidase immobilized on polyethylene oxide using electron-beam synthesis. It was shown that successive administration of immobilized hyaluronidase and the neuroleptic drug inhibits deposition of collagen fibers in the bleomycin-treated lungs. Combined treatment with the test compounds reduced swelling of the alveolar epithelium, exud… Show more

“…Consistent with our previous study [27], no sample type preference was identified. HYAL1 was one of the top 25 genes that was significantly downregulated in IPF lung tissues, which supports the reported antifibrotic effect of hyaluronidases in lung fibrosis [34,36]. Our observation of reduced HYAL1 expression in IPF lung tissue was consistent with reports of the absence of HYAL1 mRNA in lung carcinoma cell lines [12] and reduced HYAL1 protein levels in endometrial carcinomas [13].…”

“…Degradation of HA mostly results from the enzymatic action of HYAL [15] which was recognized as a “spreading factor” by hydrolyzing the dermal barrier. HYAL has been therapeutically used for many years based on their properties in facilitating the subcutaneous infusion and dispersion of fluids thus improving absorption of drugs [16] [19] , besides its ability to reduce bleomycin-induced lung injury and fibrosis [20] [22] .…”
