[Effects of two dusting methods on histopathology and cytokines in rat lung tissue]

Objective: To investigate the Effects of different dusting methods on pathological changes and cytokines in rat lung tissue. Methods: 84 healthy male SPF Wistar rats, were randomly divided into control group and dynamic dusting group, tracheal perfusion group, On the day 3, 14, 28, and 60 after the dust exposure, 7 rats in each group were randomly selected and killed. Record the weight of rats and calculate the lung coefficient; Observe the pathological changes of lung tissue by HE staining, Evaluate the pulmonary collagen fibrosis by Masson staining, observe The changes of area ratio of collagen fibers in lung tissue Sirius scarlet staining, Use enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay to detect the content of transforming growth factor (TGF) -β1 and hydroxyproline (HYP) in lung tissue homogenate. Results: After the rats were exposed to dust, the dynamic dusting group and the tracheal perfusion group varied significantly in lung histopathology at four time points, and alveolar inflammation and Pulmonary fibrosis scores were higher than the control group (P<0.05) ; The percentage of type I and type III collagen fiber area of tracheal perfusion group was higher than that in the dynamic dusting group in the four time points (P<0.05) ; The content of TGF-β1 in lung tissue homogenate of rats in the tracheal perfusion group was higher than that in the dynamic dusting group on the day 3 and 14 (P<0.05) ; The content of Hyp in the tracheal perfusion group was higher than that in the dynamic dusting group on the day 28 (P<0.05) . Conclusion: The acute lung injury of rats can be caused by dynamic dusting group and tracheal perfusion group. The lung histopathology shows inflammation and fibrosis, but the lung tissue injury of rats is more serious and the pathological changes are more obvious.
