Mechanical ventilation with high tidal volumes (HVT) downregulates alveolar Na,K-ATPase function and impairs lung liquid clearance. We hypothesized that overexpression of Na,K-ATPase in the alveolar epithelium could counterbalance these changes and increase clearance in a rat model of mild ventilation induced lung injury. We used a surfactant-based system to deliver 4x109 pfu of E1a-/E3- recombinant adenovirus containing either a rat {beta}1 Na,K-ATPase subunit cDNA (ad{beta}1) or no cDNA (adnull) to rat lungs 7 days prior to ventilation with a VT of ~ 40 ml/kg (peak airway pressure <35 cm H2O) for 40 min. Lung liquid clearance and Na,K-ATPase activity and protein abundance was increased in HVT ad{beta}1-infected lungs as compared to sham and adnull infected HVT lungs. These results suggest that Na,K-ATPase subunit gene overexpression in the alveolar epithelium increases Na,K-ATPase function and lung liquid clearance in a model of HVT. We provide here the first evidence that utilizing a genetic approach improves active Na+ transport and thus liquid clearance in the setting of mild ventilation-induced lung injury.


Key words: Gene therapy, VILI, Na,K-ATPase
