Hemorrhage results in excessive
production of superoxide that is associated with severe lung injury. We
examined whether the superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic manganese(III)
mesotetrakis (di-N-ethylimidazole) porphyrin (AEOL 10150)
could attenuate this lung injury and whether extracellular
(EC)-SOD-deficient mice would have increased hemorrhage-induced lung
injury. Compared with wild-type mice, EC-SOD-deficient mice had
increased lung neutrophil accumulation, a 3.9-fold increase in
myeloperoxidase activity, a 1.5-fold increase in nuclear factor
(NF)-
B activation, and a 1.5-fold increase in lipid peroxidation
1 h after hemorrhage. Pretreatment with AEOL 10150 did not
attenuate neutrophil accumulation but significantly reduced NF-
B
activation and lipid peroxidation in both wild-type and
EC-SOD-deficient mice. The increase in hemorrhage-induced neutrophil
accumulation in the lungs of EC-SOD-deficient mice suggests that EC-SOD
might play a role in mediating neutrophil recruitment to the lung.
