[An experimental observation of effect of tetrandrine on pulmonary dysfunction in rabbit model of smoke inhalation injury]. 1993

A rabbit model with severe smoke inhalation injury was adopted to observe the effect of tetrandrine, a calcium antagonist, on pulmonary dysfunction after smoke inhalation during 24 hours post injury. It was found that tetrandrine could decrease the permeability of pulmonary and tracheal vascular permeability (p < 0.01), reduce lung edema and improve the function of respiration. These results imply that tetrandrine might be used in the treatment of inhalation injury.

D002199 Capillary Permeability The property of blood capillary ENDOTHELIUM that allows for the selective exchange of substances between the blood and surrounding tissues and through membranous barriers such as the BLOOD-AIR BARRIER; BLOOD-AQUEOUS BARRIER; BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER; BLOOD-NERVE BARRIER; BLOOD-RETINAL BARRIER; and BLOOD-TESTIS BARRIER. Small lipid-soluble molecules such as carbon dioxide and oxygen move freely by diffusion. Water and water-soluble molecules cannot pass through the endothelial walls and are dependent on microscopic pores. These pores show narrow areas (TIGHT JUNCTIONS) which may limit large molecule movement.
