Plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 in acute hyperoxic mouse lung injury.

Abstract: Hyperoxia-induced lung disease is associated with prominent intraalveolar fibrin deposition. Fibrin turnover is tightly regulated by the concerted action of proteases and antiproteases, and inhibition of plasmin-mediated proteolysis could account for fibrin accumulation in lung alveoli. We show here that lungs of mice exposed to hyperoxia overproduce plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), and that PAI-1 upregulation impairs fibrinolytic activity in the alveolar compartment. To explore whether increased PAI… Show more

“…Although previous studies have shown a decrease in inflammation in PAI-1 Ϫ/Ϫ mice in a murine model of Ag-induced arthritis (54) and after hyperoxic-induced lung injury (29), to our knowledge this is the first study showing a decrease in neutrophil recruitment to the lung in a model of acute lung inflammation in mice deficient for PAI-1. Our findings, however, are in contrast to those of Rijneveld et al (30), which found no decrease in alveolar neutrophil recruitment in PAI-1 Ϫ/Ϫ mice administered S. pneumoniae.…”

“…Septal thickening, lung inflammation, and overall mortality were improved in PAI-1-deficient mice in a hyperoxia model of lung injury, although a direct assessment of neutrophil recruitment to the alveolar compartment was not performed in that study (29). In contrast, neutrophil recruitment to the lung was not diminished in PAI-1-deficient mice after intratracheal (IT) inoculation of Streptococcus pneumoniae (30), or in a model of chronic LPS exposure (31).…”

“…PAI-1-deficient mice are resistant to pulmonary fibrosis after lung injury, presumably due to accelerated fibrinolysis (35). PAI-1-overexpressing mice suffered a severe lung injury and deposition of ECM after bleomycin challenge (35) or hyperoxia (36), whereas PAI-1-deficient mice were protected against such fibrotic reaction. The finding that the level of PAI-1 gene expression is strongly correlated with the amount of collagen accumulation within lung tissues suggests that the balance of fibrinolytic activity within the lung is an important determinant of the pulmonary response to inflammatory injury.…”
