Table 3

Key features of oleic acid-triggered lung injury and inflammation.

Oleic acid

Direct and indirect lung injury inductionx
Cytokine induction TNFα, IL-6, and IL-1β
Chemokine inductionIL-8, MIP-1α
Cell death inductionApoptosis, necrosis
Sodium potassium ATPase inhibitionx
Immune innate response receptor activationGPRC, NKA signalosome
Hyaline membrane formationx
Lung hemorrhage induction x
Lung cell infiltration/accumulationNeutrophil, mononuclear cells
Lung function impairmentx
Protein-rich edema formationx
Time line, course of lung injury5 min up to 24 h
Lipid body formationx
Lipid mediator induction PGE2, LTB4
Intracellular pathway activationMAPK ERK1/2, PI3K/Akt, sPLA(), caspases 3 and 6, apelin-13, and mTOR
