Melatonin attenuates lung injury in a hind limb ischemia–reperfusion rat model

Abstract: These findings suggest that melatonin has preventive effects in lung tissue injury after transient femoral artery occlusion.

“…The results of this research clarified that I/R caused severe lung damage in the form of vascular congestion with subsequent hemosiderin deposition, massive inflammatory infiltrate, edema, emphysema, alveolar damage with thickened interalveolar septa and disrupted bronchial epithelium. These results were in agreement with other researches [14,15] that reported occurrence of acute lung injury following hind limb I/R in rats.…”

“…The period of the ischemia and subsequent reperfusion used in this study was based on previous studies that evaluated the lesions of remote organs [5,14,15] . The results of this research clarified that I/R caused severe lung damage in the form of vascular congestion with subsequent hemosiderin deposition, massive inflammatory infiltrate, edema, emphysema, alveolar damage with thickened interalveolar septa and disrupted bronchial epithelium.…”

“…The NO level in the rat lung was reported to be significantly increased by I/R and significantly decreased by melatonin. [25] In the present study, edaravone decreased the serum and tissue NO levels after I/R. Inflammatory mediators transported in blood from muscle tissue cause injury to distant organs, principally the lungs and kidneys.…”

“…Rat model of hind limb ischemia-reperfusion injury was conducted as previous report [22], and briefly hind limb I/R injury was induced by 6 h of femoral artery occlusion, followed by 24 h of reperfusion.…”
