Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxidative stress are thought to play a central role in the etiology of cell dysfunction and tissue damage in sepsis. However, there is limited and controversial evidence from in vivo studies that ROS mediate cell signaling processes that elicit acute inflammatory responses during sepsis. Since NADPH oxidase is one of the main cellular sources of ROS, we investigated the role of this enzyme in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced acute inflammation in vivo, utilizing mice deficient in the gp91phox or p47phox subunits of NADPH oxidase. Age and body-weight matched C57BL/6J wild-type (WT) and gp91phox−/− and p47phox−/− mice were injected i.p. with 50 µg LPS or saline vehicle, and sacrificed at different time points up to 24 hours. We found that LPS-induced acute inflammatory responses in serum and tissues were not significantly diminished in gp91phox−/− and p47phox−/− mice compared to WT mice. Rather, genetic deficiency of NADPH oxidase was associated with enhanced gene expression of inflammatory mediators and increased neutrophil recruitment to lung and heart. Furthermore, no protection from LPS-induced septic death was observed in either knockout strain. Our findings suggest that NADPH oxidase-mediated ROS production and cellular redox signaling do not promote but instead limit LPS-induced acute inflammatory responses in vivo.
