AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Lung interruption and re-inflation injury during thoracic surgery leads to oxidative stress and inflammatory response in lung tissue, and current technology lacks effective drug prevention or treatment methods.

Method used

Gabapentin or its pharmaceutically acceptable salts are prepared into oral or injectable formulations to treat and prevent lung decompression and rebreathing injury by reducing MPO and NOX2 levels in lung tissue.

Benefits of technology

It significantly reduces MPO and NOX2 levels in damaged lung tissue, decreases neutrophil infiltration and reactive oxygen species production, inhibits inflammatory response, protects the pulmonary vascular endothelial barrier function, reduces pulmonary edema, and treats and prevents lung interruption and re-ventilation injury.
