Objective: Tumor necrosis factor-a is a proinflammatory mediator required for the development of experimental lung ischemia-reperfusion injury. The alveolar macrophage is a rich source of tumor necrosis factor-a in multiple models of acute lung injury. The present study was undertaken to determine whether the alveolar macrophage is an important source of tumor necrosis factor-a in lung ischemiareperfusion injury and whether suppression of its function protects against injury.Methods: Left lungs of Long-Evans rats underwent normothermic ischemia for 90 minutes and reperfusion for up to 4 hours. Treated animals received gadolinium chloride, a rare earth metal that inhibits macrophage function. Injury was quantitated via lung tissue neutrophil accumulation (myeloperoxidase content), lung vascular permeability, and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid leukocyte, cytokine, and chemokine content. Separate samples were generated for immunohistochemistry.Results: Tumor necrosis factor-a secretion occurred at 15 minutes of reperfusion and was localized to the alveolar macrophage by immunohistochemistry. In gadolinium-treated animals, lung vascular permeability was reduced by 66% at 15 minutes (P
