Effect of imatinib on lipopolysaccharide‑induced acute lung injury and endothelial dysfunction through P38 MAPK and NF-κB signaling pathway in vivo and in vitro
Abstract:The primary purpose of these research was to demonstrate the preventive effect of IMA on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced inflammation in acute lung injury(ALI) mouse models and Human umbilical vascular endothelial cells (HUVECs). LPS stimulation for 24h to induce ALI and inflammation of cells. The pathological results of lungs was evaluated by W/D ratio, pulmonary vascular permeability measurement and immunohistochemistry of myeloperoxidase(MPO). Cell viability was measured using CCK8 assay. Expression of pro… Show more
