B. BASS, oxidant injury in isolated rat lungs. Am. J. Physiol. 260 (Heart Circ. Physiol. 29): H1980-H1984,1991.Isolated perfused rat lungs were subjected to oxidant injury induced by tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-buOOH), which caused a significant increase in capillary permeability as assessed by the change in the capillary filtration coefficient. t-buOOH caused an increase in the change in the capillary filtration coefficient (AK,) of 0.27 t 0.05 ml min cmH20-‘o 100 g lung tissue-’ (mean t SE) that was accompanied by an increase in thiobarbituric acid reactive products of lipid peroxidation in the lung perfusate. The addition of hemoglobin to the perfusate potentiated t-buOOH-induced lung injury as evidenced by a significantly greater (P = 0.007) AKfc of 0.43 k 0.05. t-buOOH also caused hemoglobin to release large quantities of free iron in vitro. The potentiation of tbuOOH-induced lung injury by hemoglobin was prevented by apotransferrin as evidenced by a significant reduction (P = 0.001) in AK,, to 0.13 k 0.02. No statistically significant (P > 0.05) changes in segmental resistances or pulmonary vascular pressures occurred in any of the lungs injured with t-buOOH when compared with time controls. These results demonstrate that t-buOOH causes an oxidant injury in isolated rat lungs that can be potentiated by free iron released from hemoglobin. l

within hemoglobin (Hb) with no open coordination site (21). An open coordination site is a stringent requirement for iron to catalyze hydroxyl radical formation (8). However, at least two reports indicate that Hb can act as a biological Fenton reagent by releasing catalytic iron when exposed to oxidant stress in vitro (9, 23). The possibility that Hb could release catalytic iron and potentiate oxidant injury in an isolated-perfused lung has not, to our knowledge, been investigated. In the present paper, we investigated the effects of Hb on oxidant injury due to tert-butyl hydroperoxide (t-buOOH) in an isolated rat lung perfused with a physiological solution that was free of significant numbers of formed blood elements. tbuOOH is a lipid soluble organic hydroperoxide that can directly oxidize membrane lipids and generate toxic oxygen metabolites in the process (6). t-buOOH was chosen as the oxidant, because we have previously studied lung injury due to t-buOOH in the rat lung, and iron-dependent oxidation was a contributing mechanism (15). Based on this observation and the in vitro observation that Hb can act as a biological Fenton reagent, we hypothesized that t-buOOH would cause the release of catalytic iron from Hb, which would accentuate injury in rat lungs perfused with t-buOOH and Hb. Our results indicate that t-buOOH causes Hb to act as a biological Fenton reagent in the isolated-perfused rat lung. METHODS

Subsequently, a median sternotomy was performed, heparin (100 IU) was injected into the right ventricle, and cannulas were placed in the pulmonary artery and left ventricle. The heart, lungs, and mediastinal structures were removed en bloc and suspended from a Grass force displacement transducer (model FT03) for monitoring weight changes and were then placed into a humidified acrylic chamber. The lungs were perfused by a Gilson Minipuls 2 peristaltic pump using 4 g/100 ml Alb physiological salt solution (PSS) at a constant flow of 0.03 ml. g body wt-’ .min. The PSS-albumin perfusate (PSS-Alb) contained (in mM) 119 NaCl, 4.7 KCl, 1.17 MgSO,, 22.6 NaHCOz, 1.18 KHzPOd, 3.2 CaClz, and 5.5 glucose. The initial 75 ml of PSS-Alb, which contained residual blood cells and plasma, was perfused through the lungs in a nonrecirculating manner and discarded. An additional 50 ml of PSS-Alb was then used for recirculation. Pulmonary artery (Ppa) and pulmonary venous (P,J pressure were continuously monitored with Cope pressure transducers (model 041-500-503) and were recorded on a Grass polygraph recorder (model 7E). Zone 3 conditions (Ppa > PpV> alveolar pressures) were maintained throughout all experiments. Pulmonary Capillary Pressure The pulmonary capillary pressure (P,,) was estimated using the double-occlusion method. Arterial inflow and venous outflow lines were simultaneously occluded, and the equilibrium P,, and P,, were measured. This equilibration pressure is well correlated with isogravimetric measures of P,, and also reflects the prevailing capillary pressure when the lung is not isogravimetric. With the use of Ppc,the pulmonary arterial, or precapillary, resistance (R,) and venous, or postcapillary, resistance (R,) were calculated using the following equations and total flow (Q): R, = (P,, - P&/Q and R, = (Ppc - P&/Q.

of perfusate was reduced with 0.02% ascorbic acid for 5 min at room temperature. One-half milliliter of 11.3% trichloroacetic acid was added, mixed, and centrifuged at 1,000 g for 5 min. One milliliter of clear supernatant was removed, and 0.4 ml of 10% ammonium acetate and 0.1 ml of mixed ferroan color reagent was added. The mixed ferroan color reagent contained Ferrozine and neocuproine as previously described. Absorption was measured on a Perkin-Elmer spectrophotometer at 562 nm. Results were expressed as nanomoles per 50 ml. Measurement of Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Products of Lipid Peroxidation Thiobarbituric acid reactive products of lipid peroxidation (TBAR) were measured with a method previously described (20). Briefly, 1 ml of perfusate from lungs injured with varying concentrations of t-buOOH (see Specific Protocols) was vortexed with 1 ml of a suspension containing trichloroacetic acid (l5%), thiobarbituric acid (0.67%), and hydrochloric acid (0.25 N). Fifteen microliters of butylated hydroxytoluene in 95% ethanol was then added and vortexed, and the sample was incubated in boiling water for 20 min. After boiling was completed, the sample was cooled and centrifuged at 2,000 g for 10 min, and the absorbance of the supernatant was read at 532 nm. Quantitation was based on the molar extinction coefficient of 1.56 X 10’. Reduction of Hb Commercially available Hb contains a mixture of oxidized and reduced Hb; therefore, all Hb was reduced by a modification of a previously described method (19). Briefly, Hb (2.5 mM) was dialized against sodium dithionate (25 mM) in Spectraphor dialysis tubing. The absence of oxidized Hb was determined spectrophotometrically by measurement of absorbance from 500 to 630 nm.

Capillary Filtration Coefficient The capillary filtration coefficient (Kfc) was measured using the method previously described (7). After an isogravimetric period in which the lung is not losing or gaining weight, the outflow pressure (P,J was rapidly elevated by 8 cmH20 for 12 min. The increase in lung weight was recorded and characterized by a rapid weight gain (vascular filling) phase (O-7 min) followed by a slower rate of weight gain (7-12 min). The rate of weight change (AW/At) during the 7- to 12-min interval was analyzed using linear regression techniques after the log,, transformation of the rate of weight change (AW) per minute (At). The initial rate of weight gain was calculated by extrapolation of AW/At to time 0 and taking the antiloglo of this AW/At intercept. The Kfc was calculated by dividing the AWlAt at time 0 by the change in P,, that occurred after increasing venous outflow pressure. The Kfc (expressed as ml. min-’ . cmHnO-‘. 100 g lung tissue-‘) was normalized using the baseline wet lung weight. Measurement of Ferrous Iron Ferrous iron was spectrophotometrically measured as described by Carter (5) using ferrocene. Briefly, 0.5 ml

After the 30-min equilibration period, tbuOOH was added to the reservoir and allowed to recirculate for 20 min. Aliquots were removed in triplicate from the reservoir immediately after the addition of tbuOOH and 20 min later. TBAR were measured in these perfusate aliquots as described (see METHODS).

Role of Hb in lung injury due to t-buOOH. Lungs were isolated from 34 rats, perfused with PSS-Alb, and ventilated with a 95% air-5% CO2 gas mixture. The lungs were divided into four groups: 1) time control (n = 8); 2) 0.89 mM t-buOOH alone (n = 10); 3) t-buOOH + 50 PM Hb (n = 10); and 4) t-buOOH + 50 PM Hb + 10 PM TF (n = 6). Hb and TF, in lungs perfused with these agents, were added to the perfusate reservoir at the onset of the 30-min equilibration period. The time control group received no drugs. After the 30-min equilibration period in each group, baseline hemodynamic profiles were obtained under isogravimetric and zone 3 conditions, and Kfc was measured. t-buOOH was then added to the perfusate reservoir in a final circulating concentration of 0.89 mM and recirculated for 20 min. The P, was adjusted to maintain an isogravimetric state, and the hemodynamic profile and Kfc were remeasured. In the time control group, a hemodynamic profile and Kfc were obtained after the 30-min period of equilibration and 20 min later. Results are expressed as the change (A) in Ppa, Ppv, Ppc, R,, R, and Kfc from baseline. Statistics Results are presented as means t SE. Statistical analysis was done using a one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA). The unpaired Student’s t test was used when ANOVA indicated a within-group statistical significance. Differences were considered to be significant when P c 0.05.

In lungs perfused with 0.45,0.89,4.5,45, and 90 mM t-buOOH, the measured TBAR (nmol/50 ml) was 1.31, 4.97, 7.01, 15.02, and 17.81, respectively. There was a linear relationship between products of lipid peroxidation and the log of the t-buOOH concentration in the perfusate (r = 0.97).

Baseline KfC in these four groups was 0.31 t 0.04, 0.33 t 0.04, 0.26 t 0.03, and 0.33 t 0.05, respectively. A significant increase (P = 0.007) in the AKfc was observed in the t-buOOH + Hb compared with the tbuOOH alone group. A significant decrease (P = 0.001) in AKfc was observed in the t-buOOH + Hb + TF compared with the t-buOOH + Hb group. In addition, the decrease in KfC in the Hb + TF + t-buOOH was also significant (P = 0.0319) when compared with t-buOOH alone.

To further support the DISCUSSION hypothesis that catalytic iron released from hemoglobin was the cause of the potentiated injury, we demonstrated Our results demonstrate that t-buOOH, an organic hydroperoxide with significant oxidant potential, causes that apotransferrin prevented the hemoglobin-associated potentiation (Fig. 3). Although less significant, the cona large increase in the permeability of the pulmonary capillary bed (Fig. 3). This permeability-type injury is centration of apotransferrin used also attenuated the accompanied by evidence of lipid peroxidation in the lung injury when compared with t-buOOH alone. This latter observation implies that the iron contamination of perfusate from lungs exposed to t-buOOH. The quantity commercially available bovine albumin (40-70 nmol Fe/ of lipid peroxidation products detected is well correlated g Alb) is important in determining the degree of injury with the quantity of t-buOOH used to produce the injury due to t-buOOH. These experiments clearly show that (Fig. 2). t-buOOH apparently causes lung injury by lipid peroxidation that is manifested as an increase in the hemoglobin accentuates t-buOOH injury and that the permeability of the pulmonary capillary bed. The most most likely mechanism for this potentiation is the tlikely site of lipid peroxidation that would explain the buOOH-induced release of catalytic iron from hemoglobni .

H202-mediated damage to isolated rat lungs, rat hearts, and cultured bovine pulmonary artery endothelial cells (4,16,26). The protective effect of erythrocytes in H20zinduced injury may be due to the antioxidant enzymes they contain. Catalase activity is specific for hydrogen peroxide, and it is relatively ineffective at dismutating larger, organic hydroperoxides like t-buOOH (16). Glutathione peroxidase in the presence of glutathione can reduce nonmembrane-bound organic hydroperoxides to water (14, 27). These antioxidant enzymes are in intimate proximity to hemoglobin within the cytosol of the erythrocyte. Although hemoglobin can release catalytic iron when exposed to oxidant stress, the injurious potential of iron-catalyzed free radical production is limited by the cytosolic antioxidant enzymes before the free radicals can gain access to the red cell membrane or extracellular space. t-buOOH has been shown to cause erythrocyte hemolysis, which could theoretically result in the release of catalytic iron into the extracellular space in the absence of haptoglobin and transferrin (28). Erythrocytes possess antioxidant potential and compartmentalize the heme-iron reservoir, but our experiments were performed in isolated lungs that were virtually free of erythrocytes and the antioxidant enzymes they contain. In summary, our experiments provide evidence that 1) t-buOOH causes injury in isolated rat lungs accompanied by evidence of lipid peroxidation within the lung, 2) tbuOOH causes the release of catalytic iron from hemoglobin, 3) hemoglobin potentiates lung injury due to tbuOOH, and 4) apotransferrin prevents the hemoglobinassociated accentuation of lung injury due to t-buOOH. These findings are consistent with the hypothesis that free hemoglobin, when exposed to an oxidant stress, can act as a biological Fenton reagent in the isolated rat lung.
