Sevoflurane inhibits nuclear factor-κB activation in lipopolysaccharide-induced acute inflammatory lung injury via toll-like receptor 4 signaling.

BACKGROUND:Infection is a common cause of acute lung injury (ALI). This study was aimed to explore whether Toll-like receptors 4 (TLR4) of airway smooth muscle cells (ASMCs) play a role in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and potential mechanisms. METHODS:In vivo: A sensit...
