Tumor necrosis factor a (TNFa) is a monokine released in response to endotoxin and has been suggested as a primary mediator of endotoxic shock. We have recently demonstrated that infusion of recombinant human tumor necrosis factor a (rTNFa) into sheep elicits a physiologic response in the lung that closely resembles endotoxemia. The present study examines the morphologic changes that accompany these alterations in pulmonary physiology. Five anesthetized, openchest sheep received 0.01 mg/kg of protein (2.24 x 107 U rTNFalmg) intravenously over 30 min.
