Piezo1 expression is upregulated in the lung epithelium during ventilator-induced lung injury. (A) Representative immunofluorescence images of lung sections from sham-operated control mice and mice subjected to 6 h of mechanical ventilation. Piezo1 protein (red) is constitutively expressed and colocalizes (yellow in merged panels) with the epithelial cell marker CK8 (green). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Scale bar, 100 µm. (B) Representative images of immunohistochemical staining for Piezo1 expression in lung epithelium from sham-operated mice and mice subjected to 6 h of mechanical ventilation. Scale bar, 20 µm (original magnification, ×400). (C) Representative haematoxylin and eosin-stained lung sections from sham-operated and HTV-ventilated mice. Scale bar, 50 µm. (D) Quantitative lung injury score was determined based on histological evaluation of alveolar congestion, haemorrhage, leukocyte infiltration and alveolar wall thickness, each graded from 0 (normal) to 3 (severe). Data are presented as the median (interquartile range); n=6 mice/group and Pvalues were determined by Mann-Whitney U test. Lung injury was further evaluated on the basis of (E) protein concentration, (F) cell number in BALF and (G) wet/dry weight ratio. (H) <t>MPO</t> activity in lung tissue. Proinflammatory cytokines in BALF were evaluated using the following ELISA kits: (I) IL-6, (J) TNF-α and (K) IL-β. (E-K) Data are presented as the mean ± SD, n=6 mice/group. Pvalues were determined by Student's t-test. *P<0.05, **P<0.01, ***P<0.001. BALF, bronchoalveolar lavage fluid; CK8, cytokeratin 8; HTV, high tidal volume; MPO, <t>myeloperoxidase.</t>
