Adrenal Epinephrine Increases Alveolar Liquid Clearance in a Canine Model of Neurogenic Pulmonary Edema

Case reports of neurogenic pulmonary edema (NPE) often indicate that the edema resolves quickly. Because plasma epinephrine concentration may be elevated in NPE, and epinephrine has been shown to increase the rate of alveolar liquid clearance (ALC), we determined if ALC was increased in a canine model of NPE produced by the intracisternal administration of veratrine. ALC was determined by instilling autologous plasma into a lower lung lobe and using the increase in instillate protein concentration after 4 h to calculate the volume of fluid cleared from the airspaces by mass balance. To prevent pulmonary hypertension and edema, which would confound the mass balance analysis, carotid arterial blood was allowed to drain into a reservoir as pulmonary arterial pressure started to rise after veratrine administration. ALC in animals administered veratrine (n = 6) was 30.4 ± 1.6 (SE)% of the instilled volume compared with 14.1 ± 2.1% observed in control animals. The increase in ALC could be inhibited by adrenalectomy, beta 2-adrenergic blockade using ICI 118,551, or sodium channel blockade using amiloride and could be duplicated by infusing epinephrine to increase plasma epinephrine concentration to levels observed in NPE. These data indicate that the increased ALC was mediated by adrenal epinephrine and suggest that edema resolution in patients with NPE might be accelerated by endogenous epinephrine.
