Description
本發明涉及玻尿酸用於治療急性呼吸窘迫症之用途。The present invention relates to the use of hyaluronic acid for treating acute respiratory distress syndrome.
急性呼吸窘迫症 (acute respiratory distress syndrome,簡稱ARDS),是一種複雜且多個因素都會導致的疾病。根據柏林定義(Berlin definition),病患暴露在危險因子七天之內,產生急性肺部瀰漫性發炎、低血氧、與呼吸衰竭等現象(Mattay et al., 2012)。是一種急性肺損傷的症狀,是具有生命威脅性的疾病。急性呼吸窘迫症會破壞肺部結構,病人會因呼吸衰竭、以及多重器官衰竭,而住進加護病房,造成耗費巨大的醫護人力及醫療資源。在目前臨床醫學上,沒有藥物可以治療急性呼吸窘迫症,只有支持性的療法,因此致死率極高,所以,ARDS在重症醫學界原本就已經是一個相當令人頭痛的疾病。Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a complex disease caused by multiple factors. According to the Berlin definition, patients are exposed to risk factors within seven days, resulting in acute diffuse lung inflammation, hypoxemia, and respiratory failure (Mattay et al., 2012). It is a symptom of acute lung injury and a life-threatening disease. Acute respiratory distress syndrome will destroy the lung structure, and patients will be admitted to the intensive care unit due to respiratory failure and multiple organ failure, resulting in a huge consumption of medical manpower and medical resources. In current clinical medicine, there are no drugs to treat acute respiratory distress syndrome, only supportive therapy, so the mortality rate is extremely high. Therefore, ARDS is already a very troublesome disease in the critical care medical community.
2020年,更因為新冠肺炎的大流行,導致ARDS病患大量的增加。根據統計,有高達31% - 42%新冠肺炎住院的病人會有ARDS,而其中又有61-81%的病患需要住進加護病房(Wu et al., 2020) (Gibson et al., 2020). 這些新冠病毒感染之重症患者,在急性期都有嚴重的肺部發炎反應,在恢復期也有不同程度的肺臟纖維化現象,造成肺功能永久性的退化、甚至導致其他器官的終生損害。因此,針對急性呼吸窘迫症發展藥物,不僅可以減輕急性呼吸窘迫症病情的嚴重程度、降低急性呼吸窘迫症病人的死亡率、也可以避免後續肺臟或其他器官的損傷情況、更可以緩解醫院重症加護病房的壓力。 In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic has led to a large increase in ARDS patients. According to statistics, as many as 31% - 42% of patients hospitalized with COVID-19 will have ARDS, and 61-81% of them need to be admitted to the intensive care unit (Wu et al., 2020) (Gibson et al., 2020 ). These severe patients with COVID-19 infection have severe pulmonary inflammation in the acute phase and varying degrees of pulmonary fibrosis in the recovery phase, causing permanent deterioration of lung function and even lifelong damage to other organs. Therefore, developing drugs for acute respiratory distress disease can not only reduce the severity of acute respiratory distress disease and reduce the mortality rate of acute respiratory distress disease patients, but also avoid subsequent damage to the lungs or other organs, and can also alleviate critical care in hospitals. Ward pressure.

2. 結果2. Results
2.1 嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症動物模式的建立2.1 Establishment of animal model of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome
給予BLM傷害七天內,偵測大白鼠的肺功能變化情形。首先,是脈衝式血氧濃度器偵測後肢足底的動脈血含氧飽和度,可代表肺部氧氣交換的效能。在傷害之前 (Day 0),動脈血氧飽和度通常維持在97 %。傷害後第一天會下降到87.7±1.2 %,第二天再下降至84.7±1.7 %,在傷害後第7天只剩83.7±0.9 % (圖2A及2B)。第二種偵測方式是抽取老鼠的尾動脈血液,來偵測動脈血內的含氧分壓、與二氧化碳分壓。在傷害之前(Day 0),動脈血的氧分壓(PO2)約88.1±2.7 mmHg;傷害後第4天,會顯著下降到74.2±4.2 mmHg;傷害後第7天只剩66.3±3.9 mmHg (圖2C)。在傷害之前(Day 0),動脈血的二氧化碳分壓(PCO2)約46.4±1.6 mmHg;傷害後第4天,會上升到49.0±1.3 mmHg;傷害後第7天更升高至53.8±2.0 mmHg (圖2D)。第三種偵測是每分鐘的呼吸頻率。在傷害之前 (Day 0),呼吸頻率約為132.3±11.8 cycles/min;傷害後第1天,會上升到188.0±32.6 cycles/min;之後,老鼠的呼吸逐漸加速,在傷害後第7天增加到 330.3±17.3 cycles/min (圖3A及3B)。由此結果顯示,BLM傷害造成肺功能下降,動脈血液呈現缺氧的情形,導致呼吸的急促。Within seven days of BLM injury, the lung function changes of rats were detected. First, the pulse oximeter detects the oxygen saturation of arterial blood in the soles of the hind limbs, which can represent the efficiency of oxygen exchange in the lungs. Before injury (Day 0), arterial oxygen saturation was usually maintained at 97%. It will drop to 87.7±1.2% on the first day after injury, then drop to 84.7±1.7% on the second day, and only 83.7±0.9% remains on the 7th day after injury (Figure 2A and 2B). The second detection method is to extract blood from the tail artery of mice to detect the oxygen partial pressure and carbon dioxide partial pressure in the arterial blood. Before the injury (Day 0), the oxygen partial pressure (PO2) of the arterial blood was about 88.1±2.7 mmHg; on the 4th day after the injury, it dropped significantly to 74.2±4.2 mmHg; on the 7th day after the injury, it was only 66.3±3.9 mmHg (Figure 2C). Before the injury (Day 0), the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (PCO2) in the arterial blood was approximately 46.4±1.6 mmHg; on the 4th day after the injury, it rose to 49.0±1.3 mmHg; on the 7th day after the injury, it increased to 53.8±2.0 mmHg ( Figure 2D). The third type of detection is respiratory rate per minute. Before the injury (Day 0), the respiratory frequency was approximately 132.3±11.8 cycles/min; on the 1st day after the injury, it increased to 188.0±32.6 cycles/min; after that, the mouse's breathing gradually accelerated and increased on the 7th day after the injury. to 330.3±17.3 cycles/min (Figure 3A and 3B). The results show that BLM injury causes a decrease in lung function and a lack of oxygen in the arterial blood, resulting in rapid breathing.
由肺的巨觀來觀察,正常大白鼠不論是左肺、或是右肺,都呈現平滑完整,白色為正常肺泡的位置。在傷害後第一天,左肺已經出現凹凸不平的表面。在傷害後第二天,左肺中央區域,白色肺泡已經有部分喪失。在傷害後第四天,左肺中央區域內的白色肺泡完全不見,僅剩周圍區域有肺泡存在。到傷害後第7天,左肺明顯萎縮,而且,只剩周圍區域有肺泡存在 (圖4)。接著,左肺組織切片進行HE染色,觀察微細型態的變化 (圖5A)。分別放大,左肺中央區域、與周圍區域 (圖5B及5C),Normal組大白鼠的左肺,無論是中央、或周圍區域都是正常的肺泡組織,結締組織多存在於支氣管周圍,肺泡與肺泡之間的結締組織極少。在傷害後第一天,不論是中央區域、或周圍區域,在肺泡之間開始出現細胞浸潤的情形。傷害後第二天到第七天,細胞浸潤的情形越來越嚴重,左肺中央區域的肺泡幾乎消失不見。僅在左肺的周邊區域,仍然有少許的肺泡存在 (圖5A-5C)。進一步,我們加總所有的肺組織切片,推算出左肺的總體積,正常組的左肺體積大約317.6±19.4 mm 3立方公釐。在BLM傷害後第7天,明顯降低到217.2±17.0 mm 3左右,與正常組相比有明顯的萎縮 (圖5D)。此時萎縮的左肺,肺泡結構的體積也下降到59.7±8.4 cm 3;大量細胞浸潤的實質化組織,則佔左肺體積的63.8±2.5 %左右 (圖5E及5F)。在BLM傷害之後,大白鼠每分鐘呼吸頻率在七天內急遽上升、動脈含氧指數都顯著下降、左肺的肺泡減少、組織間大量的細胞浸潤,這些,都與臨床上的急性呼吸窘迫症的特性相同。因此,我們成功建立嚴重的、可重複性的、一致性的、急性呼吸窘迫症的動物模式。我們因此選擇急性期、最嚴重的第七天,開始給予治療。 Observed from the macroscopic view of the lungs, both the left and right lungs of normal rats appear smooth and complete, and the white color indicates the position of normal alveoli. On the first day after the injury, the left lung already had a bumpy surface. On the second day after the injury, the white alveoli in the central area of the left lung had been partially lost. On the fourth day after the injury, the white alveoli in the central area of the left lung were completely missing, leaving only alveoli in the surrounding area. On the 7th day after the injury, the left lung shrank significantly, and only the alveoli remained in the surrounding area (Figure 4). Next, left lung tissue sections were stained with HE to observe subtle morphological changes (Figure 5A). Magnified respectively, the central area and the surrounding area of the left lung (Figure 5B and 5C). The left lung of the rats in the Normal group has normal alveolar tissue in both the central and surrounding areas. Connective tissue mostly exists around the bronchi, and the alveoli and There is very little connective tissue between the alveoli. On the first day after injury, cell infiltration begins to appear between the alveoli, whether in the central area or the surrounding area. From the second to the seventh day after the injury, the cellular infiltration became more and more serious, and the alveoli in the central area of the left lung almost disappeared. Only in the peripheral area of the left lung, a few alveoli still exist (Figure 5A-5C). Furthermore, we summed up all the lung tissue sections to calculate the total volume of the left lung. The volume of the left lung in the normal group was approximately 317.6±19.4 mm3 . On the 7th day after BLM injury, it was significantly reduced to about 217.2±17.0 mm3 , showing significant atrophy compared with the normal group (Fig. 5D). At this time, the volume of the atrophic left lung's alveolar structure also dropped to 59.7±8.4 cm 3 ; the parenchymal tissue with large amounts of cell infiltration accounted for about 63.8±2.5% of the volume of the left lung (Figures 5E and 5F). After BLM injury, the rat's respiratory rate per minute increased sharply within seven days, the arterial oxygen index dropped significantly, the alveoli in the left lung decreased, and a large number of cells infiltrated between tissues. These are all consistent with clinical acute respiratory distress syndrome. The characteristics are the same. Therefore, we successfully established a severe, reproducible, and consistent animal model of acute respiratory distress disease. Therefore, we chose the acute phase, the most severe day on the seventh day, to start treatment.
2.2 給予玻尿酸可以增加嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠的體重2.2 Administration of hyaluronic acid can increase the weight of mice with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome
正常組大白鼠隨著時間增加,體重也有逐漸上升的情形。在給予BLM傷害後第7天,各組大白鼠體重都有明顯停滯的現象。之後,體重隨著時間雖然也有些微增長,但各組大白鼠與正常組大白鼠的體重相較,都呈現明顯減少的現象,並且,體重較正常組少的趨勢一直持續到第28天。BLM+HHA組大白鼠的體重,一直都與BLM組相近。BLM+HHA組大白鼠的體重,從第14天到第28天,都比BLM+MIX HA組來的少。第BLM+LHA組大白鼠的體重,在第28天,與BLM組大白鼠相較,有顯著的增加情形。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的體重,則在第21天與第28天,都較BLM組大白鼠的體重有統計上的提升 (圖6)。The rats in the normal group gradually increased in weight as time went by. On the 7th day after BLM injury, the weight of rats in each group significantly stagnated. After that, although the body weight increased slightly over time, the weight of the rats in each group showed a significant decrease compared with the rats in the normal group, and the trend of being less in weight than the normal group continued until the 28th day. The weight of the rats in the BLM+HHA group has always been similar to that of the BLM group. The body weight of the rats in the BLM+HHA group was less than that in the BLM+MIX HA group from the 14th to the 28th day. On the 28th day, the body weight of the rats in the BLM+LHA group increased significantly compared with the rats in the BLM group. The body weight of the rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was statistically higher than that of the rats in the BLM group on days 21 and 28 (Figure 6).
2.3 給予玻尿酸能夠提升嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠的動脈血的氧合指數2.3 Administration of hyaluronic acid can increase the oxygenation index of arterial blood in rats with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome
以脈衝式血氧濃度儀分析動脈血氧飽和度(SpO2),藉此評估肺部氣體交換的功能。結果顯示,在實驗時間的28天內,正常組大白鼠的血氧飽和度均維持在98.2 %左右 (圖7A及7B)。在給予BLM傷害後第7天,各組大白鼠的血氧飽和度都有明顯下降的現象,約為84.3±0.7 %,一直到第28天,BLM組大白鼠的動脈血氧飽和度並沒有改善,與正常組大白鼠相較,均呈現明顯的減少 (圖7A及7B)。BLM+HHA組大白鼠,在第28天時的動脈血氧飽和度都約為86 ,與BLM傷害組相較,並沒有統計上差異。BLM+HHA組大白鼠的動脈血氧飽和度,從第14天到第28天,都比BLM+MIX HA組來的少。從第14天到第28天,BLM+LHA組、與BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的動脈血氧飽和度,相較BLM組都有明顯的增加。然而,BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的動脈血氧飽和度在第21天與第28天又較BLM+LHA組有更明顯的改善 (圖7A及7B)。 Pulse oximetry is used to analyze arterial oxygen saturation (SpO2) to evaluate the function of pulmonary gas exchange. The results showed that during the 28 days of the experiment, the blood oxygen saturation of the rats in the normal group was maintained at around 98.2% (Figures 7A and 7B). On the 7th day after BLM injury, the blood oxygen saturation of rats in each group dropped significantly, about 84.3±0.7%. Until the 28th day, the arterial oxygen saturation of the rats in the BLM group did not decrease. Improvement, compared with the normal group of rats, showed a significant reduction (Figure 7A and 7B). The arterial oxygen saturation of rats in the BLM+HHA group was approximately 86 on the 28th day. , compared with the BLM injury group, there was no statistical difference. The arterial oxygen saturation of rats in the BLM+HHA group was lower than that in the BLM+MIX HA group from the 14th to the 28th day. From the 14th to the 28th day, the arterial blood oxygen saturation of rats in the BLM+LHA group and BLM+MIX HA group increased significantly compared with the BLM group. However, the arterial oxygen saturation of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was more significantly improved than that in the BLM+LHA group on days 21 and 28 (Figures 7A and 7B).
另外,在BLM傷害之前 (Day 0),大白鼠動脈血內的氧分壓約為86.4 - 89.7 mmHg (圖 7C)。在給予BLM傷害後第7天,各組大白鼠動脈血氧分壓都有明顯下降的現象,BLM組大白鼠一直到第28天,動脈血氧分壓並沒有太大變化,與正常組大白鼠相較,均呈現明顯的減少 (圖 7C)。BLM+HHA組大白鼠,在第28天時的動脈血氧分壓雖然有些微上升的趨勢,但與BLM組相較,並沒有統計上差異。而且,BLM+HHA組大白鼠的動脈血氧分壓,在第28天時,仍然低於BLM+ MIX HA組大白鼠。BLM+ LHA組大白鼠的動脈血氧分壓,在第28天,相較BLM組有明顯的增加。BLM+ MIX HA組大白鼠的動脈血氧分壓在第14天已經顯著升高,此上升趨勢一直持續到第28天,動脈血氧分壓相較BLM組,都有明顯的改善 (圖 7C)。In addition, before BLM injury (Day 0), the partial pressure of oxygen in the arterial blood of rats was approximately 86.4 - 89.7 mmHg (Figure 7C). On the 7th day after BLM injury, the partial pressure of arterial blood oxygen of rats in each group decreased significantly. Until the 28th day, the partial pressure of arterial blood oxygen of rats in the BLM group did not change much, which was significantly different from that of the normal group. Compared with white mice, all showed significant decreases (Figure 7C). Although the partial pressure of arterial blood oxygen in the BLM+HHA group of rats showed a slight upward trend on the 28th day, there was no statistical difference compared with the BLM group. Moreover, the arterial blood oxygen partial pressure of rats in the BLM+HHA group was still lower than that of rats in the BLM+ MIX HA group on day 28. The arterial blood oxygen partial pressure of rats in the BLM+LHA group increased significantly compared with the BLM group on the 28th day. The arterial blood oxygen partial pressure of rats in the BLM+ MIX HA group had significantly increased on the 14th day, and this upward trend continued until the 28th day. Compared with the BLM group, the arterial blood oxygen partial pressure was significantly improved (Figure 7C) .
在BLM傷害之前 (Day 0),大白鼠動脈血內的二氧化碳分壓約為46.6 - 47.9 mmHg (圖 7D)。在給予BLM傷害後第7天,各組大白鼠動脈血二氧化碳分壓都較正常組有明顯上升的情形,升高至51.6 – 54.7 mmHg。到第14天,各組動脈血二氧化碳分壓仍舊是升高的情形。只有BLM+ MIX HA組大白鼠的動脈血二氧化碳分壓在第14天已經顯著下降,較BLM組減少,與Normal組相近。其餘各組大白鼠 (BLM組、BLM+ LHA組、和BLM+HHA組) 動脈血內二氧化碳分壓,在第21天,都與正常組大白鼠沒有統計差異 (圖 7D)。Before BLM injury (Day 0), the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the arterial blood of rats was approximately 46.6 - 47.9 mmHg (Figure 7D). On the 7th day after BLM injury, the arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressure of rats in each group increased significantly compared with the normal group, rising to 51.6 – 54.7 mmHg. By the 14th day, the arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressure in each group was still elevated. Only the arterial blood carbon dioxide partial pressure of rats in the BLM+ MIX HA group had significantly decreased on the 14th day, which was lower than that of the BLM group and similar to the Normal group. The partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the arterial blood of the other groups of rats (BLM group, BLM+LHA group, and BLM+HHA group) on day 21 was not statistically different from that of the rats in the normal group (Figure 7D).
2.4 給予玻尿酸能舒緩嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠的呼吸速率2.4 Administration of hyaluronic acid can slow down the breathing rate of rats with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome
偵測大白鼠的呼吸頻率結果顯示,正常組大白鼠從第0天到第28天,一直都保持呼吸速率相當穩定的情形,兩秒內的呼吸次數約維持4- 5次 (圖8A及8F)。在BLM傷害後第7天,各組的呼吸速率都明顯上升。BLM組,在第7天到第28天,呼吸速率都較正常組明顯增快 (圖8B及8F)。BLM+HHA組大白鼠,從第7天到第28天的呼吸速率,都與BLM組相似。而且,BLM+HHA組大白鼠的呼吸速率,在第21天、與第28天時,仍然高於BLM+ MIX HA組大白鼠 (圖8D及8F)。BLM+LHA組大白鼠的呼吸速率在第14天,與BLM組相比,有明顯的減少,但是,呼吸頻率仍然高於正常組 (圖8C及8F)。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的呼吸速率在第14天,相較BLM組,已有明顯的降低,此趨勢一直持續到第28天;並且,BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的呼吸速率在第21天與第28天的呼吸速率與正常組並沒有統計差異 (圖8E及8F)。The results of detecting the respiratory rate of the rats showed that the rats in the normal group maintained a fairly stable respiratory rate from day 0 to day 28, with the number of breaths within two seconds maintaining about 4-5 times (Figure 8A and 8F ). On the 7th day after BLM injury, the respiratory rate of each group increased significantly. In the BLM group, from the 7th to the 28th day, the respiratory rate was significantly faster than that of the normal group (Figures 8B and 8F). The respiratory rate of rats in the BLM+HHA group from the 7th to the 28th day was similar to that of the BLM group. Moreover, the respiratory rate of rats in the BLM+HHA group was still higher than that of rats in the BLM+ MIX HA group on days 21 and 28 (Figures 8D and 8F). The respiratory rate of rats in the BLM+LHA group was significantly reduced compared with the BLM group on day 14, but the respiratory rate was still higher than that of the normal group (Figures 8C and 8F). The respiratory rate of the rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was significantly lower on the 14th day compared with the BLM group, and this trend continued until the 28th day; and, the respiratory rate of the rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was on the 21st day. There was no statistical difference between the respiratory rate on day 28 and the normal group (Figures 8E and 8F).
2.5 由外型巨觀及HE染色顯示,給予玻尿酸,能改善嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺的萎縮2.5 Macroscopic appearance and HE staining show that administration of hyaluronic acid can improve the atrophy of the left lung of mice with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome.
在第28天,犧牲灌流各組大白鼠,取其左、右肺臟,觀察肺部的外觀型態。由前面觀(上排)、與背面觀(下排)照片顯示,正常組大白鼠的左、右肺均可以看見白色肺泡結構,肺泡呈現完整、平滑的情形。BLM組的左肺明顯萎縮,非常少量的肺泡組織僅出現在左肺的外周圍,左肺的中央區域已經呈現沒有肺泡的病變組織。其中,BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠,他們左肺的白色肺泡區域、以及整體左肺的體積,與BLM傷害組相比,都有明顯的增大 (圖9)。On the 28th day, the rats in each group of perfused rats were sacrificed, and their left and right lungs were removed to observe the appearance of the lungs. The photos from the front view (upper row) and back view (lower row) show that white alveolar structures can be seen in both the left and right lungs of the rats in the normal group, and the alveoli appear complete and smooth. The left lung of the BLM group shrank significantly, a very small amount of alveolar tissue appeared only on the outer periphery of the left lung, and the central area of the left lung already showed diseased tissue without alveoli. Among the rats in the BLM+MIX HA group, the white alveolar area of their left lung and the overall volume of the left lung were significantly increased compared with the BLM injury group (Figure 9).
各組大白鼠左肺連續的組織切片,經HE染色,取低倍率圖片(圖10A),再分別放大左肺的中央區域 (圖10B)、與周邊區域 (圖10C)。結果顯示,正常組大白鼠左肺面積較大、肺泡較多,結締組織只出現在支氣管周圍,肺泡與肺泡之間的結締組織極少。BLM組大白鼠的左肺,完整的肺泡只出現在左肺的外周圍,中央區域均為大量細胞浸潤、幾乎看不到肺泡的存在。而BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠,他們左肺中央區域雖然也有大量的細胞浸潤,但也存在不少肺泡空間 (白色空間)(圖10B及10C)。加總所有HE染色的左肺組織切片,經由統計定量,結果顯示,BLM組左肺總體積明顯萎縮,萎縮左肺內的肺泡體積顯著減少(圖10D-10E)。其中,BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的左肺體積明顯提升,左肺肺泡體積較多,與正常組大白鼠左肺的結構比例相當。推測給予混合分子量的玻尿酸,可以提升左肺的整體體積、回復左肺的肺泡空間 (圖10D-10E)。Continuous tissue sections of the left lungs of rats in each group were stained with HE, and low-magnification pictures were taken (Figure 10A), and then the central area of the left lung (Figure 10B) and the peripheral area (Figure 10C) were enlarged. The results showed that the left lung area of the rats in the normal group was larger and there were more alveoli. Connective tissue only appeared around the bronchi, and there was very little connective tissue between alveoli. In the left lung of the rats in the BLM group, complete alveoli appeared only on the outer periphery of the left lung. The central area was infiltrated with a large number of cells, and almost no alveoli could be seen. As for the rats in the BLM+MIX HA group, although there was a large amount of cell infiltration in the central area of their left lung, there was also a lot of alveolar space (white space) (Figure 10B and 10C). All HE-stained left lung tissue sections were summed up and statistically quantified. The results showed that the total volume of the left lung in the BLM group significantly shrunk, and the alveolar volume in the atrophied left lung was significantly reduced (Figure 10D-10E). Among them, the volume of the left lung of the rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was significantly increased, and the alveolar volume of the left lung was larger, which was similar to the structural proportion of the left lung of the rats in the normal group. It is speculated that administration of mixed molecular weight hyaluronic acid can increase the overall volume of the left lung and restore the alveolar space of the left lung (Figure 10D-10E).
2.6 給予玻尿酸能降低嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內發炎反應、與肺泡上皮細胞的EMT反應2.6 Administration of hyaluronic acid can reduce the inflammatory reaction in the left lung of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice and the EMT reaction with alveolar epithelial cells.
計算支氣管與肺泡的沖洗液內的細胞數目,細胞數目越多,代表發炎反應越劇烈。Count the number of cells in the bronchial and alveolar washing fluid. The greater the number of cells, the more severe the inflammatory response.
第28天,取各組大白鼠左肺的肺泡沖洗液,進行細胞計數。結果顯示,BLM組大白鼠的左肺的肺泡沖洗液內的細胞數量明顯增加。BLM+LHA組、和BLM+HHA組大白鼠肺泡沖洗液內的細胞數量,相較於BLM組,都有顯著降低的情形,但仍較Normal組來得多。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的左肺的肺泡沖洗液的細胞數量,與BLM傷害組相比,有顯著降低,且與Normal組並沒有統計差異。推測給予玻尿酸,都能夠減少嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠的肺部發炎反應,因此,左肺內的細胞數量減少,尤其,給予混合各分子量的玻尿酸,與正常組相似 (圖11A)。On the 28th day, the alveolar lavage fluid from the left lungs of rats in each group was taken for cell counting. The results showed that the number of cells in the alveolar lavage fluid of the left lung of rats in the BLM group increased significantly. The number of cells in the alveolar lavage fluid of rats in the BLM+LHA group and BLM+HHA group was significantly lower than that in the BLM group, but it was still much higher than that in the Normal group. The number of cells in the alveolar lavage fluid of the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was significantly lower than that in the BLM injury group, and was not statistically different from the Normal group. It is speculated that the administration of hyaluronic acid can reduce the inflammatory response in the lungs of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice. Therefore, the number of cells in the left lung is reduced. In particular, the administration of hyaluronic acid mixed with various molecular weights is similar to the normal group (Figure 11A).
BLM傷害後,Alveolar Type II cell會大量的增生,進行上皮細胞變形反應(epithelial mesenchymal transition,簡稱EMT),此時,N-鈣粘蛋白(N-cadherin)大量表現。此時,Alveolar Type II cell變型成為myofibroblasts,造成肺泡減少、組織結疤。After BLM injury, Alveolar Type II cells will proliferate in large quantities and undergo epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). At this time, N-cadherin (N-cadherin) will be expressed in large quantities. At this time, Alveolar Type II cells transform into myofibroblasts, causing alveoli reduction and tissue scarring.
以抗-N-鈣粘蛋白抗體進行西方墨點法(western blotting),結果顯示,正常組大白鼠的左肺中僅有少量N-鈣粘蛋白存在。BLM組大白鼠的左肺中會有大量表現N-鈣粘蛋白,代表肺泡上皮細胞大量的增生,進行上皮細胞變形反應。然而,BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺N-鈣粘蛋白產量,與BLM傷害組相較,呈現降低情形。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺N-鈣粘蛋白產量,與正常組相近 (圖11B)。Western blotting with anti-N-cadherin antibodies showed that only a small amount of N-cadherin was present in the left lungs of the normal group of rats. A large amount of N-cadherin was expressed in the left lungs of rats in the BLM group, representing a large amount of alveolar epithelial cell proliferation and epithelial cell deformation reaction. However, the N-cadherin production in the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was reduced compared with the BLM injury group. The N-cadherin production in the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was similar to that in the normal group (Figure 11B).
2.7 給予玻尿酸能促進嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內第二型巨噬細胞活化,以進行抗發炎作用。2.7 Administration of hyaluronic acid can promote the activation of type II macrophages in the left lungs of mice with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome to perform anti-inflammatory effects.
各組大白鼠的左肺組織切片,以抗-ED1抗體進行組織免疫染色,以標定巨噬細胞。結果顯示,正常組大白鼠左肺中僅有少量、形態較小的巨噬細胞存在。BLM組大白鼠的左肺組織間,出現大量形態較小顆的巨噬細胞。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺組織間,仍然有許多形態較小的巨噬細胞存在,但是,出現型態較大的吞噬細胞分布在結締組織間、及肺泡空間內 (圖12A),推測這些型態較大的巨噬細胞是具有抗發炎作用的第二型巨噬細胞。The left lung tissue sections of rats in each group were immunostained with anti-ED1 antibody to identify macrophages. The results showed that only a small number of small macrophages existed in the left lungs of the rats in the normal group. A large number of smaller macrophages appeared in the left lung tissue of rats in the BLM group. In the BLM+MIX HA group, there are still many small macrophages in the left lung tissue of rats, but larger phagocytes appear distributed among the connective tissue and in the alveolar space (Figure 12A). It is speculated that These larger macrophages are type II macrophages with anti-inflammatory effects.
以抗-CD86抗體西方墨漬法,標定第一型巨噬細胞。第一型巨噬細胞具有促進發炎的效果。結果顯示。BLM組大白鼠的左肺內CD86的含量上升。然而BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺內CD86的濃度下降,與BLM組相比,有統計上差異 (圖12B)。推測給予玻尿酸,能避免嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內第一型巨噬細胞的分化與轉型,以降低發炎反應。Anti-CD86 antibody Western blot method was used to calibrate type I macrophages. Type I macrophages have a pro-inflammatory effect. The results are displayed. The content of CD86 in the left lung of rats in the BLM group increased. However, the concentration of CD86 in the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group decreased, and there was a statistical difference compared with the BLM group (Figure 12B). It is speculated that the administration of hyaluronic acid can prevent the differentiation and transformation of type 1 macrophages in the left lungs of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice, thereby reducing the inflammatory response.
進一步,以Anti-CD206抗體西方墨漬法,標定第二型巨噬細胞,第二型巨噬細胞具有抗發炎的作用。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺內CD206的濃度升高,與正常(Normal)組、和BLM組相比,都呈現統計上的增加 (圖12C)。推測給予玻尿酸,能促進嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內第二型巨噬細胞的分化與轉型,以進行抗發炎反應。Furthermore, Anti-CD206 antibody Western ink blot method was used to calibrate type II macrophages. Type II macrophages have anti-inflammatory effects. The concentration of CD206 in the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group increased statistically, and compared with the Normal group and the BLM group, it showed a statistical increase (Figure 12C). It is speculated that the administration of hyaluronic acid can promote the differentiation and transformation of type II macrophages in the left lungs of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice to carry out anti-inflammatory responses.
2.8 給予玻尿酸能刺激嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內的MMP生成,降低發炎反應2.8 The administration of hyaluronic acid can stimulate the production of MMP in the left lungs of rats with severe acute respiratory distress syndrome and reduce the inflammatory response.
定量各組大白鼠左肺中基質金屬蛋白酶-9(Matrix metallopeptidase 9,簡稱MMP-9)蛋白質的含量,結果顯示, BLM組大白鼠左肺內的MMP-9,與正常組相比,呈現減少的情形。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺內MMP-9明顯增加,較BLM組有統計上的差異 (圖13A)。The protein content of Matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP-9) in the left lungs of rats in each group was quantified. The results showed that MMP-9 in the left lungs of rats in the BLM group was reduced compared with the normal group. situation. MMP-9 increased significantly in the left lungs of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group, which was statistically different from the BLM group (Figure 13A).
定量各組大白鼠左肺中基質金屬蛋白酶-2 (Matrix metallopeptidase,簡稱MMP-2) 蛋白質的含量,結果顯示,BLM組大白鼠左肺內的MMP-2,與正常組相比,則沒有明顯的變化。BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠左肺內MMP-2明顯增加,較與正常組有統計上的提升 (圖13B)。推測給予玻尿酸,能刺激嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內合成MMP,因此,降低發炎反應。The protein content of Matrix metallopeptidase (MMP-2) in the left lungs of rats in each group was quantified. The results showed that MMP-2 in the left lungs of rats in the BLM group was not significantly lower than that in the normal group. changes. MMP-2 in the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group increased significantly, which was statistically higher than that in the normal group (Figure 13B). It is speculated that the administration of hyaluronic acid can stimulate the synthesis of MMP in the left lungs of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice, thus reducing the inflammatory response.
2.9 給予玻尿酸能改變嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內TLR-4表現,加速肺泡上皮細胞的再生2.9 Administration of hyaluronic acid can change the expression of TLR-4 in the left lungs of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice and accelerate the regeneration of alveolar epithelial cells.
第二型肺泡上皮細胞大量表現類鐸受體4 (Toll-like receptor 4,TLR-4),會刺激肺泡上皮細胞的再生(Yang et al., 2012; Liang et al., 2016)。因此,以抗-TLR-4抗體進行西方墨漬法,觀察各組大白鼠左肺中TLR-4蛋白質的含量。結果顯示,正常組與BLM傷害組大白鼠的左肺中僅有少量的TLR-4表現。在BLM+MIX HA組大白鼠的左肺內TLR-4的表現量明顯升高,與正常組與BLM傷害組相比,都有統計上的差異 (圖14)。推測給予玻尿酸,可增進嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症病鼠左肺內TLR-4蛋白質的生成,以便增進肺泡上皮細胞的再生與修復。Type II alveolar epithelial cells express a large number of Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR-4), which can stimulate the regeneration of alveolar epithelial cells (Yang et al., 2012; Liang et al., 2016). Therefore, anti-TLR-4 antibody was used to perform Western ink blotting to observe the TLR-4 protein content in the left lungs of rats in each group. The results showed that there was only a small amount of TLR-4 expression in the left lungs of the rats in the normal group and the BLM injury group. The expression amount of TLR-4 in the left lung of rats in the BLM+MIX HA group was significantly increased, and there were statistical differences compared with the normal group and the BLM injury group (Figure 14). It is speculated that the administration of hyaluronic acid can increase the production of TLR-4 protein in the left lungs of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome mice, thereby promoting the regeneration and repair of alveolar epithelial cells.
3.結論3.Conclusion
BLM傷害後,發炎反應上升、發炎細胞浸潤、第一型肺泡上皮細胞消失、大量增生的第二型肺泡上皮細胞(Alveolar Type II cells),進行變形反應,變形成為活化態的肌纖維母細胞(myofibroblast),合成並釋出膠原蛋白,導致胞外基質沉積。給予混合各 合分子量的玻尿酸,可以減輕發炎反應、降低肺泡上皮細胞變形、刺激第二型抗發炎的巨噬細胞生成、減少膠原蛋白的沉積、刺激肺泡的再生。不同分子量玻尿酸都有改善ARDS的功能,而混合分子量的玻尿酸,改善、治療嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症的效果最好。因此,給予玻尿酸,相信也可以減緩新冠肺炎(COVID-19)大流行的威脅。 參考文獻 1.

TLR4 activity is required in the resolution of pulmonary inflammation and fibrosis after acute and chronic lung injury. Am J Pathol. 2012; 180: 275-292. After BLM injury, the inflammatory response increases, inflammatory cells infiltrate, type I alveolar epithelial cells disappear, and massive proliferation of type II alveolar epithelial cells (Alveolar Type II cells) undergoes a deformation reaction and deforms into activated myofibroblasts. ), synthesize and release collagen, leading to extracellular matrix deposition. Mixing hyaluronic acid of various molecular weights can reduce inflammation, reduce alveolar epithelial cell deformation, stimulate the production of type II anti-inflammatory macrophages, reduce collagen deposition, and stimulate alveolar regeneration. Hyaluronic acid with different molecular weights has the function of improving ARDS, and hyaluronic acid with mixed molecular weights has the best effect in improving and treating severe acute respiratory distress syndrome. Therefore, it is believed that giving hyaluronic acid can also mitigate the threat of the COVID-19 pandemic. References 1. Matthay MA et al., The acute respiratory distress syndrome. J Clin.

圖4顯示大白鼠在BLM傷害後不同天數,犧牲灌流後,肺部的巨觀型態。由圖中可觀察到,在BLM傷害第一天,左肺表面開始出現不平整的情形。在BLM 傷害第二天,左肺中央區域肺泡已經有局部不見。在 BLM 傷害第七天 ,左肺萎縮、中央區域肺泡不見。根據左肺巨觀型態,確定大白鼠嚴重的急性呼吸窘迫症動物模式成功建立。Figure 4 shows the macroscopic morphology of the lungs of rats after sacrificial perfusion at different days after BLM injury. It can be observed from the figure that on the first day of BLM injury, the surface of the left lung began to become uneven. On the second day after the BLM injury, the alveoli in the central area of the left lung were partially missing. On the seventh day of BLM injury, the left lung shrank and the alveoli in the central area disappeared. Based on the macroscopic morphology of the left lung, the animal model of severe acute respiratory distress syndrome in rats was successfully established.

Figure 5A is a low-power image of HE-stained left lung tissue sections of rats on different days, in which the white space is the alveolar tissue. Figure 5B is a high-power image of HE-stained tissue sections in the central area of the left lung (red box area in Figure 5A) of rats on different days. It shows that after BLM injury, cell infiltration was present and the alveoli were gradually reduced. Figure 5C is a high-power image of HE-stained tissue sections of the outer peripheral area of the left lung (blue box area in Figure 5A) of rats on different days. It shows that after BLM injury, there are still some alveoli (white spaces), but as the As the number of days of injury increases, the alveoli gradually decrease. Figure 5D shows the total volume of the left lung at different days after injury after quantitative HE staining; Figure 5E shows the alveolar volume of the left lung; Figure 5F shows the proportion of cell infiltration in the left lung.
