Lung ischemia–reperfusion injury: implications of oxidative stress and platelet–arteriolar wall interactions

Abstract: Pulmonary ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury may result from trauma, atherosclerosis, pulmonary embolism, pulmonary thrombosis and surgical procedures such as cardiopulmonary bypass and lung transplantation. IR injury induces oxidative stress characterized by formation of reactive oxygen (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS). Nitric oxide (NO) overproduction via inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) is an important component in the pathogenesis of IR. Reaction of NO with ROS forms RNS as secondary reactive … Show more

“…NO is a powerful anti-inflammatory agent, decreasing leukocyte recruitment (83) and the subsequent release of inflammatory cytokines. Although this is normally a beneficial effect, in high concentrations NO may also react with ROS to form peroxynitrite and other reactive nitrogen species (73,160). Of these NOS subtypes, the activities of eNOS and iNOS have been shown to be anti-inflammatory in several models (44,83), although the overinduction of iNOS is implicated in the formation of reactive nitrogen species (160).…”

“…Although data from the cardiac surgical literature does suggest an inflammatory effect from cardiopulmonary bypass, there is no evidence to suggest that bypass should be delayed when it is clearly indicated during transplantation (30,(34)(35)(36)(37)(38)(39).…”
