Popis: Objective(s): To investigate the protective effect of S-nitrosoglutathione (SNG) pretreatment on acute lung injury (ALI) in septic rats. Materials and Methods: We constructed a rat model of sepsis by cecal ligation and perforation (CLP), and randomly divided into Sham, CLP, and CLP+SNG (0.25 and 0.5 mg/kg) groups. We used H&E staining and lung wet/dry ratio to assess the severity of lung injury, detected the levels of protein and cells in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and the levels of TNF-α, IL-1β, TLR4 mRNA, and NF-κB p65 mRNA in the lung tissue, and assessed the levels of glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione peroxidase (GSH-Px), and catalase in the lung tissue.Results: A rat model of sepsis was successfully constructed by CLP, and pretreatment of SNG significantly increased the survival of septic rats (PConclusion: SNG pretreatment has a protective effect on ALI in septic rats, and the specific mechanism may be related to anti-endotoxic, anti-inflammatory, and anti-oxidative properties.
