PG - 221-229 LID - 10.1097/SHK.0000000000001859 [doi] AB - Hemorrhagic shock/resuscitation (HS/R) is closely associated with overwhelming oxidative stress and systemic inflammation. As an effective activator of the nuclear factor-erythroid factor 2 related factor 2 (Nrf2) pathway, sulforaphane (SFN) exerts antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects. We explored SFN's effects on alveolar macrophages (AMs), systemic inflammation, and pulmonary damage in an isolated murine HS/R model. Male C57/BL6 wild type and transgenic antioxidant response element (ARE)-luciferase (luc) mice (both n = 6 per group) were exposed to either pressure-controlled HS/R (mean arterial pressure 35-45 mm Hg for 90 min) or sham procedure (surgery without HS/R) or were sacrificed without intervention (control group). Fluid resuscitation was performed via the reinfusion of withdrawn blood and 0.9% saline. Sulforaphane or 0.9% saline (vehicle) was administrated intraperitoneally. Mice were sacrificed 6, 24, or 72 h after resuscitation. Bioluminescence imaging of ARE-luc mice was conducted to measure pulmonary Nrf2 activity. Plasma was collected to determine systemic cytokine levels. Alveolar macrophages were isolated before measuring cytokines in the supernatant and performing immunofluorescence staining, as well as Western blot for intracellular Nrf2. Histological damage was assessed via the acute lung injury score and wet/dry ratio.Hemorrhagic shock/resuscitation was associated with pulmonary Nrf2 activation. Sulforaphane enhanced pulmonary Nrf2 activity and the Nrf2 activation of AM, while it decreased lung damage. Sulforaphane exerted down-regulatory effects on AM-generated and systemic pro-inflammatory mediators, while it did not have such effects on IL-10.In conclusion, SFN beneficially enhances pulmonary Nrf2 activity and promotes Nrf2 accumulation in AMs' nuclei. This may exert not only local protective effects but also systemic effects via the down-regulation of pro-inflammatory cytokines. The administration of Nrf2 activator post-HS/R may represent an innovative treatment strategy. CI - Copyright (c) 2021 by the Shock Society.
