The acute effects of a triolein infusion in dogs were secondary to the mechanical effects of this neutral fat which was distributed in the pulmonary and systemic vascular tree of all organs without inflammatory change. Hypoxia developed immediately and became progressively worse as the infusion was
Chronic intermittent hypoxia (CIH) inhibits plasma lipoprotein clearance and adipose lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity in association with upregulation of an LPL inhibitor angiopoietin-like protein 4 (Angptl4). We hypothesize that CIH inhibits triglyceride (TG) uptake via Angptl4 and that an
Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) induces intermittent hypoxia (IH) during sleep and is associated with elevated triglycerides (TG). We previously demonstrated that mice exposed to chronic IH develop elevated TG. We now hypothesize that a single exposure to acute hypoxia also increases TG due to the
Intravenous infusion of oleic acid into experimental animals causes acute lung injury resulting in pulmonary edema. We investigated the mechanism of oleic acid lung injury in sheep. In experiments with anesthetized and unanesthetized sheep with lung lymph fistulas, we measured pulmonary arterial and
Pulmonary haemodynamic and arterial blood gas changes were measured in dogs subjected to either an intravenous injection of triolein or external trauma, which produced fractures of the ipsilateral femur, tibia and fibula. Musculoskeletal trauma resulted in pulmonary vasoconstriction followed by

We hypothesized that leukotrienes might contribute to the pathophysiology of acute lung injury induced by oleic acid. Oleic acid (2-20 mg.kg-1.h-1), LY171883 [leukotriene (LT) D4/LTE4 receptor antagonist, 10 mg/kg + 1 mg.kg-1.h-1] + oleic acid (10 mg.kg-1. h-1), or triolein (20 mg.kg-1.h-1) were
In considering intravenous injection of lipid as a model of fat embolism, contamination is frequent and purity must be demonstrated. Musculoskeletal trauma causes mild arterial hypoxia whereas intravenous pure triolein 0.1 mg/kg does not. Trauma produced a leukocytosis and elevated sedimentation
