Abstract | BACKGROUND: METHODS: Twenty-seven male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomized for mechanical ventilation (MV) alone (9 rats; positive end-expiratory pressure, 5 cm H2O; pressure control, +20 cm H2O; FIO2, 0.33), MV + HS (9 rats; hemorrhage, 30% volume loss) or MV + LPS (9 rats, LPS, 5mg/kg intravenously administered). Five rats were used as controls. Total PMN count and differentials were determined. In addition, the expression of activation markers (CD62L and CD11b) on blood-derived PMNs was measured by flow cytometry. Pulmonary inflammatory response was measured by PMN counts in bronchoalveolar fluid. The presence of neutrophils in the lung was determined by total myeloperoxidase. Results are expressed as means ± SEM; p ≤ 0.05 is considered statistically significant. RESULTS: All treated rats had more neutrophils in the blood and bronchoalveolar fluid compared with the controls. Myeloperoxidase was significantly higher in all groups compared with controls. MV and MV + HS rats had more blood neutrophils with CD62L(bright)/CD11b(dim) phenotypes, whereas MV + LPS rats showed more CD62L(dim)/CD11b(bright) neutrophils, indicative for activated cells. CONCLUSION: All ventilated rats showed a systemic inflammatory response. The responses to HS and MV were very similar, suggesting a common pathway of DAMP-associated inflammation. In marked contrast, LPS showed a different neutrophil phenotype (CD62L(dim)/CD11b(bright)), suggesting a different inflammatory response. It is concluded that shock induced by DAMPs and PAMPs have different underlying mechanisms.
