Study on the protective effect of rapamycin-treated dendritic cells on transfusion-related acute lung injury after infection
Journal Title: Chinese Journal of Blood Transfusion - Year 2022, Vol 35, Issue 10
Abstract
Objective To investigate the viability of rapamycin-treated rapamycin-treated dendritic cells (DCs) in intervening transfusion-related acute lung injury (TRALI) after infection. Methods 1)The TRALI mouse model was induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) combined with anti-H2Kd antibody. The mice anal temperature and the wet/dry ratio of lung, kidney, spleen and brain tissues were measured. 2) Mouse bone marrow-derived DC cells were induced in vitro and treated with rapamycin (10nM) for 24h. 3) Mice were injected with or without rapamycin or rapamycin-treated DC, then injected with LPS intraperitoneally one hour later, finally injected with anti-H2Kd antibody 24 hours later to induce the onset of TRALI. The death situation of the mice was observed and recorded. The condition of mice after the onset of TRALI was analyzed by mouse body temperature, lung wet-dry ratio, and pleural effusion weight and lung histopathological sections. Results By comparing the induction effects of anti-H2Kd antibody solutions with different concentrations and volumes, the mouse model induced by 0.1mg/kg LPS combined with 4.5 mg/kg anti-H2Kd antibody (infusion volume of 100μL) was selected as the TRALI mouse model for this study. After the onset of TRALI, the wet/dry ratio of the lungs could be significantly increased and the body temperature could be significantly reduced in the model mice. After the intervention of TRALI mice with DCs treated with rapamycin, the mortality rate was significantly reduced, and the lung tissue lesions of the mice were significantly improved, whose protection effect was better than that of the rapamycin-treated group. Compared with the TRALI incidence group, the weight of pleural effusion in the intervention group was significantly reduced (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in lung wet/dry ratio and body temperature. Conclusion The combination of LPS and antibodies can effectively induce a stable and typical TRALI mouse model, suggesting that the presence of infectious inflammation and blood transfusion-related inflammatory substances are the decisive factor for the pathogenesis of TRALI. Meanwhile, DCs treated with rapamycin have a protective effect on post-infection transfusion-related acute lung injury, which is expected to be a potential cell therapy strategy to intervene in the exacerbation of TRALI.
