Objectives:The R-spondin family attenuates tissue damage via tightening endothelium and preventing vascular leakage. This study aims to investigate whether R-spondins protect against mechanical stretch-induced endothelial dysfunction and lung injury and to reveal the underlying mechanisms.Design:Randomized controlled study.Setting:University research laboratory.Subjects:Patients scheduled to undergo surgery with mechanical ventilation support. Adult male Institute of Cancer Research mice. Primary cultured mouse lung vascular endothelial cells.Interventions:Patients underwent a surgical procedure with mechanical ventilation support of 3 hours or more. Mice were subjected to mechanical ventilation (6 or 30 mL/kg) for 0.5–4 hours. Another group of mice were intraperitoneally injected with 1 mg/kg lipopolysaccharide, and 12 hours later subjected to mechanical ventilation (10 mL/kg) for 4 hours. Mouse lung vascular endothelial cells were subjected to cyclic stretch for 4 hours.Measurements and Main Results:R-spondin1 were downregulated in both surgical patients and experimental animals exposed to mechanical ventilation. Intratracheal instillation of R-spondin1 attenuated, whereas knockdown of pulmonary R-spondin1 exacerbated ventilator-induced lung injury and mechanical stretch-induced lung vascular endothelial cell apoptosis. The antiapoptotic effect of R-spondin1 was mediated through the leucine-rich repeat containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 in cyclic stretched mouse lung vascular endothelial cells. We identified apoptosis-stimulating protein of p53 2 as the intracellular signaling protein interacted with leucine-rich repeat containing G-protein coupled receptor 5. R-spondin1 treatment decreased the interaction of apoptosis-stimulating protein of p53 2 with p53 while increased the binding of apoptosis-stimulating protein of p53 2 to leucine-rich repeat containing G-protein coupled receptor 5, therefore resulting in inactivation of p53-mediated proapoptotic pathway in cyclic stretched mouse lung vascular endothelial cells.Conclusions:Mechanical ventilation leads to down-regulation of R-spondin1. R-spondin1 may enhance the interaction of leucine-rich repeat containing G-protein coupled receptor 5 and apoptosis-stimulating protein of p53 2, thus inactivating p53-mediated proapoptotic pathway in cyclic stretched mouse lung vascular endothelial cells. R-spondin1 may have clinical benefit in alleviating mechanical ventilator-induced lung injury.
