ABSTRACT
Adult rats exposed to hyperoxia (>95% O2) die from respiratory failure in 60-72 h. However, rats preconditioned with >95% O2 for 48 h followed by 24 h in room air acquire tolerance of hyperoxia (H-T), whereas rats preconditioned with 60% O2 for 7 days become more susceptible (H-S). Our objective was to evaluate lung tissue mitochondrial bioenergetics in H-T and H-S rats. Bioenergetics was assessed in mitochondria isolated from lung tissue of H-T, H-S, and control rats. Expressions of complexes involved in oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos) were measured in lung tissue homogenate. Pulmonary endothelial filtration coefficient (Kf) and tissue mitochondrial membrane potential (Δψm) were evaluated in isolated perfused lungs (IPLs). Results show that ADP-induced state 3 OxPhos capacity (Vmax) decreased in H-S mitochondria but increased in H-T. Δψm repolarization time following ADP-stimulated depolarization increased in H-S mitochondria. Complex I expression decreased in H-T (38%) and H-S (43%) lung homogenate, whereas complex V expression increased (70%) in H-T lung homogenate. Δψm is unchanged in H-S and H-T lungs, but complex II has a larger contribution to Δψm in H-S than H-T lungs. Kf increased in H-S, but not in H-T lungs. For H-T, increased complex V expression and Vmax counter the effect of the decrease in complex I expression on Δψm. A larger complex II contribution to Δψm along with decreased Vmax and increased Kf could make H-S rats more hyperoxia susceptible. Results are clinically relevant since ventilation with ≥60% O2 is often required for extended periods in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).NEW & NOTEWORTHY We assessed lung tissue mitochondrial bioenergetics in rats with tolerance (H-T) or susceptibility (H-S) to hyperoxia-induced ARDS. Results from studies in isolated mitochondria, tissue homogenate, and isolated perfused lungs show that mitochondrial bioenergetics are differentially altered in H-T and H-S lungs suggesting a potential role for mitochondrial bioenergetics in hyperoxia-induced ARDS. Results are clinically relevant since hyperoxia exposure is a primary therapy for patients with ARDS, and differential sensitivity to hyperoxia surely occurs in humans.
