Purpose: Bronchiolitis obliterans (BO) is a highly debilitative and fatal syndrome associated with a series of severe lower airway disorders. The pathogenesis of BO is complicated and not entirely understood. An appropriate animal model of BO may aid research into its pathogenesis. Here, we establish a mouse model of BO to provide insight into this disease. Materials and Methods: 6-8 week old BABL/c mice were exposed to 5% nitric acid (NA) aerosol through a nebulizer for 3 hours, and controls were exposed to distilled water instead. Symptoms, airway resistance and pathological process were observed dynamically. The levels of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2), MMP-9, tissue inhibitor of metalloproteinase-1(TIMP-1), 8-isoprostane and myeloperoxidase (MPO) in lung tissue and bronchoalveolar lavage fluids (BLAF) were determined by ELISA on day 3, 7, 14, 28 and 56 after the aerosol nebulization. Results: Typical BO lesions were observed in NA nebulized mice characterized histologically by initial necrotizing bronchiolitis and final airway fibrosis at day 28 after the aerosol nebulization. NA nebulized mice also exhibited labored breathing and significantly increased airway resistance. Expression of MMP-2, MMP-9, TIMP-1, 8-isoprostane and MPO were significantly elevated in NA nebulized mice in different time frame. Conclusion: A murine BO model was established by NA aerosol inhalation. It provides an easy, economic, and reproducible mice model for BO research.
