| Abstract |
Apoptosis of alveolar epithelial type II (AEC-II) cells induced by reactive oxygen species (ROS) contributes to extensive alveolar damage during acute lung injury. Hypercapnic acidosis and hypocapnic alkalosis are known to modulate ROS-mediated lung damage. This study assessed the effects of acid-base balance disturbances on hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)-induced apoptosis of the AEC-II-like human cell line A549, which was cultured under different conditions of pH and CO2 tension (normal pH and CO2, hypercapnic acidosis, metabolic acidosis, hypocapnic alkalosis and metabolic alkalosis). H2O2-induced apoptosis was assessed by a dye-uptake bioassay and induction of caspase activity, which were quantified using analytical digital photomicroscopy. Acidosis or alkalosis of the culture medium alone did not induce A549 cell apoptosis. Hypocapnic alkalosis significantly increased H2O2-induced apoptosis and caspase activation of A549 cells. Metabolic alkalosis non-significantly increased H2O2-induced A549 cell apoptosis and caspase activation. These data suggest that hypocapnic alkalosis intensifies oxidative-induced apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells.
