  •   Objective  Pulmonary oxygen poisoning resulting from hyperbaric oxygen, frequently occurs in specialized operations, without any current effective prevention or treatment measures. To elucidate the impact of neostigmine(NEO)in combination with anisodamine (ANI)(neoscopolamine)on pulmonary oxygen toxicity and its mechanism.   Methods   the animal model of pulmonary oxygen poisoning was established. C57BL/6 mice were exposed to 2.5ATA 99.9% oxygen for 6 hours. The control group mice were injected with normal saline ip, while the treatment group mice received injections of ANI (25mg/kg, ip)and NEO(50μg/kg, ip). Lung tissues were collected and stained with HE to observe any pathological injuries after exposure. Evans blue stain was utilized to identify lung permeability, wet/dry lung ratio, and protein concentration in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)to assess the lung injury’s severity. The modifications in inflammatory factors, oxidative stress indicators, and iron content in lung tissue were assessed.   Results  The results showed that the 2.5ATA 99.9% oxygen-exposed group experienced a significant worsening of lung injury, as well as increased lung permeability, lung wet/dry ratio, and protein content in alveolar lavage fluid when compared to the control group. Moreover, mRNA levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α, and IFN-γ in the lung tissue of the model group were significantly elevated, while the levels of anti-inflammatory cytokines IL-4 and TGF-β were significantly reduced. The oxidative index MDA also significantly increased, while the antioxidant index GSH significantly decreased. Additionally, the expression of GPX4, a marker of ferroptosis, increased with an increase in iron content. Neoscopolamine treatment successfully reversed those effects.   Conclusion  The combined use of ANI and NEO has a protective effect on pulmonary oxygen poisoning. Neoscopolamine may inhibit inflammation and oxidative stress by activating the cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway, thereby reducing the content of free iron in lung tissue and finally inhibiting cell ferroptosis.

  • 肺型氧中毒是长期吸入高浓度氧气导致的肺部损伤,表现为肺组织充血、水肿、炎性浸润等,其中以多型核白细胞为主[1]。活化的多型核白细胞可以激活氧化酶,进而产生和释放大量的炎症介质和氧自由基,进一步介导级联式扩大的炎症反应对肺部造成损伤[2]。在饱和潜水或重型减压病患者进行加压治疗时,肺型氧中毒已成为最常见的并发症[3]。然而,目前关于HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒发生机制缺乏深入的探讨。

    山莨菪碱(anisodamine,ANI)是一种毒蕈碱(muscarine,M)受体阻滞剂,新斯的明(neostigmine,NEO)是一种临床常见的胆碱酯酶抑制剂。我们课题组前期研究发现ANI和NEO以500:1的比例组成复方,简称新斯莨菪碱,新斯莨菪碱能协同地激活α7nAChR,并减轻二者联用所致的毒副作用。研究表明激活α7nAChR受体在感染性休克[4]、类风湿关节炎[5]、挤压综合征[6]、脑卒中[7]等动物模型上均发挥保护作用。然而,在HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒的发生和发展过程中,新斯莨菪碱是否可以用于肺型氧中毒的治疗?其治疗作用的病理生理机制是什么?这些都尚未阐明。

    铁死亡是一种以细胞内铁依懒性的活性氧(ROS)异常增高,导致细胞内ROS的生成和降解失衡为特征的细胞死亡方式[8]。高浓度氧暴露条件下生成的大量ROS,一方面可直接对肺细胞产生损害,另一方面可参与炎症反应,促进炎症细胞渗透聚集,使各种致炎因子的表达增多,进一步加重肺的急性炎症反应[9]

    本文探究了新斯莨菪碱对HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒是否具有保护效应,并在此基础上,阐明铁死亡在新斯莨菪碱治疗HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒中的作用,以期为肺型氧中毒的临床防治提供新的理论指导和思路。

    • 首先,探究HBO暴露后对肺组织的病理损伤情况以及新斯莨菪碱对HBO诱导的肺损伤的作用。将C57BL/6小鼠置于2.5 ATA的高压氧舱中暴露6 h建立肺型氧中毒模型,然后通过HE染色观察肺组织结构变化,如图1所示。正常组小鼠肺泡肺泡壁结构完整,间隔无增厚,肺泡腔内无渗出物;HBO暴露后,肺泡间隔出现水肿、增厚,肺泡腔内可见红细胞渗出,肺间质见大量炎性细胞浸润(图1B);给予新斯莨菪碱治疗后,肺水肿明显减轻,肺泡内炎性细胞浸润以及红细胞渗出减少,肺组织病理损伤减轻(图1C-D)。以上结果表明新斯莨菪碱治疗能减轻肺型氧中毒后肺组织的病理损伤。

    • 图2可以看出,模型组伊文思蓝染色加深,表明HBO暴露后肺渗透性增加,而新斯莨菪碱治疗后上述情况明显改善(图2A~B)。与正常组相比,模型组肺组织湿干比重明显增加,而新斯莨菪碱治疗后能够显著降低肺湿干比(图2C)。此外,HBO暴露后肺泡灌洗液中蛋白含量升高,新斯莨菪碱治疗能够有效减少肺泡灌洗液中蛋白的渗出(图2D)。这些结果表明,新斯莨菪碱治疗能够有效改善肺型氧中毒后的肺水肿及肺组织渗出。

    • 图3中可以看出,HBO暴露后,肺组织中促细胞因子,如TNF-α、IL-1β、IL-6和IFN-γ的mRNA显著增高,抗炎因子IL-4及TGF-β则显著降低,而新斯莨菪碱能显著降低促炎因子的表达,同时提高抗炎因子的水平(图3A~F)。HBO暴露后肺组织氧化指标MDA升高,而抗氧化指标GSH降低,给予新斯莨菪碱治疗后,能明显逆转上述变化(图3G~H)。由此说明,新斯莨菪碱能降低HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒引起的炎症反应及氧化应激水平。

    • 铁元素是维持正常生理活动所必需的,但过量的铁会产生对细胞有害的自由基。在病理状态下,铁蛋白的破坏导致细胞内游离铁的增高,脂质过氧化反应和游离铁的增高会导致细胞的铁死亡。如图4所示,HBO暴露后普鲁士蓝染色可见肺组织中铁含量增高,对肺组织铁离子含量进行检测得到了同样的结果(图4A~C)。GPX4是一种重要的抗氧化酶,HBO暴露后GPX4的表达降低(图4D~E),导致机体抗氧化应激能力减弱,对细胞有害的自由基无法被有效清除。而新斯莨菪碱治疗后可以改善GPX4的表达,降低肺组织铁含量,从而减少细胞铁死亡的发生,对肺组织起到保护作用。

    • HBO已被广泛用于多种疾病的治疗以及潜水作业中,并发挥了难以替代的作用[10]。然而,在饱和潜水或重型减压病患者加压治疗以及临床上用于治疗新生儿呼吸窘迫时,HBO诱导的肺损伤已成为最常见的并发症[11]。研究发现,当HBO环境持续存在时,将出现小气道功能障碍,表现为肺活量降低、气体扩散功能减弱和肺顺应性降低[12]。与之前的报道一致,本研究结果表明,与正常组相比,模型组的肺组织损伤显著加重;伊文思蓝染色显示HBO暴露后染色加深,肺湿/干比增加,同时肺泡灌洗液中的蛋白含量也显著增加,新斯莨菪碱治疗后这些变化被显著抑制,这些结果初步表明新斯莨菪碱与HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒的发生密切相关。

      ANI属于传出自主神经M受体阻断剂,阻断M受体引起交感神经优势。NEO是一种可逆性胆碱酯酶抑制剂,可有效延长乙酰胆碱的作用时间,同时激活胆碱能抗炎通路[11]。Sun等[4]研究证实,两药物联合使用,不仅可以加强胆碱能抗炎通路的炎症抑制作用,还可降低NEO的不良反应,达到协同增强作用。本课题组前期的研究发现ANI和NEO联合使用,能够通过阻断巨噬细胞上的毒蕈M受体,使更多的乙酰胆碱作用于α7尼古丁乙酰胆碱受体,进而对胆碱能抗炎通路起到双向活化调节作用,进一步加强了对炎症反应的抑制作用[7]。本研究发现新斯莨菪碱能够显著降低肺组织中促炎因子TNF-α、IL-1β、IL-6和IFN-γ的表达。由此说明,新斯莨菪碱可减轻HBO导致的肺部炎症反应。

      肺型氧中毒包括高压力损伤和高浓度氧损伤,目前认为ROS 及其代谢产物介导的生化紊乱是导致肺型氧中毒发生发展的主要因素。HBO环境下会产生大量氧自由基,可能导致细胞因子释放和炎症反应的增加,而异常的炎症反应可加剧肺损伤[13]。研究发现,HBO 暴露后肺组织中氧化指标MDA 显著升高、抗氧化指标 GSH 则显著降低,而给新斯莨菪碱治疗能明显改善肺组织氧化损伤情况。

      铁死亡作为一种新发现的细胞死亡方式,其释放出内源性损伤相关分子(DAMPs)与炎症和氧化应激之间存在着诸多途径的交互作用。GPX4作为铁死亡的核心调控因子,近年来受到广泛关注。研究表明GPX4的缺乏或功能丧失会加剧铁死亡的发生,并促使细胞进一步受到氧化应激的影响[14]。Kang等[15]的研究发现在LPS诱导的脓毒症模型中,敲除GPX4导致脂质过氧化的加剧并进一步促进铁死亡的发生。本研究发现,HBO暴露后肺组织中铁含量增高、GPX4的表达量降低,而新斯莨菪碱治疗后可以逆转这些变化。

      综上所述,新斯莨菪碱可能通过激活胆碱能抗炎通路,从而抑制炎症的和氧化应激的发生,进而减少了肺组织中游离铁的含量,最终抑制细胞铁死亡。下一步我们将通过体外实验,进一步验证在HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒模型中,新斯莨菪碱是否通过抑制铁死亡的产生从而减轻肺组织的损伤情况,以期为防治HBO诱导的肺型氧中毒提供新的策略。
