title: [Effect of different fat emulsions on acute lung injury induced by endotoxin].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To assess the effect of Clinoleic 20% (olive oil-based, n-9) and Lipoven 20% (soy bean-based, n-6) lipid emulsions on inflammatory parameters in a murine acute lung injury (ALI) model induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) of E. coli O111:B4.
  
  
  METHODS
  Male Balb/C mice were infused for three days with 0.9% NaCl, Clinoleic 20%, or Lipoven 20% respectively, and sacrificed either at 8 hours or 24 hours after intra-tracheal introduction of LPS. Survival rate, lung wet/dry weight ratio (W/D), lung tissue myeloperoxidase (MPO) activity were determined, and tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) and macrophage inflammatory protein-2 (MIP-2) in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were determined with enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Serum free fatty acids [arachidonic acid (AA), oleic acid, linoleic acid] were determined by gas chromatography. Leukocytes in BALF were counted under light microscope.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Lipoven significantly decreased survival rate at 24 hours after intra-tracheal LPS challenge compared to corresponding controls (both P<0.01). No significant difference was observed between Clinoleic and NaCl groups. MPO activity was obviously increased in lipids groups than that in NaCl group at 24 hours (both P<0.01), and no difference was found between two lipids groups. LPS markedly induced an increase in leukocyte infiltration, W/D ratio, lung MPO activity, release of TNF-alpha as well as MIP-2 into alveolar space in both lipids and NaCl groups. Pre-infusion with Lipoven gave rise to heavier leukocyte infiltration at 24 hours, which was blunted in Clinoleic group and NaCl group (both P<0.01). In contrast to Clinoleic and NaCl groups, Lipoven increased production of TNF-alpha at 24 hours and MIP-2 at 8 hours in LPS-treated mice (all P<0.01). Notably, lipid emulsions increased LPS-induced MPO activity, but no difference in effects was found in both Lipoven and Clinoleic groups. Clinoleic significantly reduced free AA at 8 and 24 hours compared with Lipoven (both P<0.01). There were no differences in lung tissues edema, serum oleic acid and linoleic acid among three groups.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  In murine model of ALI, although LPS caused an increase in alveolar leucocytic infiltration, MPO activity, cytokine generation in both lipids and NaCl groups, Lipoven 20%, n-6 lipid emulsion induces a severer inflammatory reaction. It is speculated that by increasing AA, Lipoven 20% may aggravate ALI, whereas Clinoleic 20%, n-9 lipid emulsion possibly offers an alternative choice in producing less impact on inflammatory lung injury.
