Abstract:
:The present study was performed to investigate simultaneously total lung water, T(1) and T(2) relaxation times, and hyaluronan (HA) in preterm and term rabbits. Attempts were also made to establish the relationship of HA to total lung water and to T(2)-derived motionally distinct water fractions. Experiments were performed in fetal Pannon white rabbit pups at gestational ages of 25, 27, 29, and 31 d and at a postnatal age of 4 d. Lung tissue water content (desiccation method), T(1) and T(2) relaxation times (H(1)-NMR method), and HA concentration (radioassay) were measured, and free and bound water fractions were calculated by using multicomponent fits of the T(2) relaxation curves. Lung water content and T(1) and T(2) relaxation times were highest at a gestational age of 27 d and then declined steadily during the whole study period. Similar trends and time courses were seen for the fast and slow components of the T(2) relaxation curve. The T(2)-derived free water fraction remained unchanged at a gestational age of 25-29 d ( approximately 67%), but increased progressively to a value of 78.5 +/- 7.9% at 31 d (p < 0. 001) and to 83.4 +/- 9.4% at the postnatal age of 4 d (p < 0.01). Opposite changes occurred in the bound water fraction. Lung HA concentration decreased with advancing gestation from 870.8 +/- 205.2 microg/g dry weight at 25 d to 162.6 +/- 32.4 microg/g dry weight at 31 d (p < 0.001), but it was increased 2-fold postnatally. HA correlated positively with total lung water (r = 0.39; p < 0.001) but not with the bound water fraction. It is suggested that the physiologic lung dehydration is associated with macromolecule-related reorganization of lung water and that the role of HA in this process needs to be further investigated.
