The present study aims to evaluate therapeutic effects and mechanisms of pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate PDTC on ALI. Methods Alveolar-arterial oxygen difference lung tissue edema and compromise NF-kB activation in polymorphonuclear neutrophil PMN and systemic levels of tumor necrosis factor-alpha TNFa and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 ICAM-1 in rabbits induced by the intravenous administration of lipopolysaccharide LPS and treated with PDTC. Production of TNFa and IL-8 activation of Cathepsin G and PMNs adhesion were also measured. Results The intravenous administration of PDTC had partial therapeutic effects on endotoxemia-induced lung tissue edema and damage neutrophil influx to the lung alveolar-capillary barrier dysfunction and high systemic levels of TNFa and ICAM-1 as well as over-activation of NF-kB. PDTC could directly and partially inhibit LPS-induced TNFa hyper-production and over-activities of Cathepsin G. Such inhibitory effects of PDTC were related to the various stimuli and enhanced through combination with PI3K inhibitor. Conclusion NF-kB signal pathway could be one of targeting molecules and the combination with other signal pathway inhibitors may be an alternative of therapeutic strategies for ALI ARDS.
