- W4378649755 abstract "Oxygen exchange between lungs and systemic tissues is essential for life. However, breathing air with high O 2 levels can cause pulmonary O 2 toxicity (POT)—a serious health hazard for divers breathing O 2 -enriched gases at high pressure, and patients undergoing hyperbaric O 2 therapy or breathing through a mechanical ventilator. POT occurs because increased rates of O 2 uptake ( J O2 ) across the air-blood barrier lead to high intracellular O 2 concentration in alveolar type I cells (AT I Cs), AT II Cs, and in pulmonary capillary endothelial cells (PCECs). In principle, one could reduce POT by reducing J O2 . According to Fick’s law of diffusion, one approach for reducing J O2 would be to decrease O 2 membrane permeability ( P M, O2 ). In this work, we focus on the possibility of mitigating POT damage by manipulating P M, O2 across the cell membranes of AT I Cs (which cover about 90% of the alveolar surface) and PCECs.Research from the past 25 years has shown that membrane proteins (e.g., some aquaporins, AQPs) can conduct gases, thereby increasing P M . Notably, AQP5, which has the highest-known CO 2 permeability, is highly expressed in the apical membrane of AT I Cs, and AQP1, which can conduct both CO 2 and O 2 , is highly expressed in both PCECs membranes.We hypothesize that AQP5 mediates a large fraction of J O2 across the alveolar wall, and AQP1 does the same across PCECs membranes. If true, genetic deletion of AQP5 and/or AQP1 should reduce POT. We test this hypothesis with (1) a normobaric POT mouse model in which male mice (wild type, WT, vs knockout, KO) are continuously exposed to >99% O 2 (“↑O 2 ”) vs room Air (“Air”) for ~60-72 hr; (2) KO mice genetically deficient in AQP5, AQP1, or both (double knockouts, dKO); and (3) POT assays, namely H 2 O/dry-lung weight ratio (marker of lung edema) and, on bronchiolar-alveolar lavage fluid, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH; marker for AT I C leakage) and protein (mainly albumin from blood plasma; marker for blood-gas-barrier leakiness).Consistent with previous work (on WT and AQP5- & AQP1-KOs) by others, “H 2 O/dry weight” data show no differences between WT and KOs under “↑O 2 ” conditions. This negative result is consistent with the observed 10–15% weight loss (presumably all H 2 O), which would have reduced net Starling forces for ultrafiltration, making AQP KOs irrelevant. However, preliminary LDH and protein data are consistent with the idea that the KO of AQP5 and/or AQP1 reduces POT. For “↑O 2 ,” the AQP1-KO (vs. WT) shows a weak trend towards lower LDH; AQP5-KO and dKO show trends so strong that mean LDH does not differ from WT/“Air.” Moreover, for “↑O 2 ,” AQP5-KO and dKO have protein levels markedly lower than WT/“↑O 2 .” Finally, for “↑O 2 ,” we observe a progressive decrease in mouse mortality in the sequence WT > AQP1-KO >> AQP5-KO > dKO. If the observed trends continue for larger N’s, our data would argue that AQP5 and AQP1 are protective for POT and point, for the first time, towards a role of AQP5 in conducting O 2 .
