Abstract

Background. Acute lung injury is one of severe course of influenza infection with mortality up to 40% of patients, despite on etiological and pathogenetic therapy.
 The aim of the article to study of the effects of aminoguanidine on correcting on acute lung injury induced by influenza virus A/California/7/09MA (mouse-adapted) (H1N1)pdm09, collection Smorodintsev Research Institute of Influenza.
 Materials and methods. The study was performed on 95 outbred female mice. The mouse-adapted pandemic influenza virus A/California/7/09MA (H1N1)pdm09 was used for modeling viral infection at a dose of 1 LD50. The mortality was analysed. Levels of advanced glycation end-products (AGEs), proinflammatory cytokines in lung; saturation index and leukocytes marker parameters in blood; pathological and histological studies of lung were performed on 4 and 7 days post infection.
 Results. Aminoguanidine led to 2-fold decrease in mortality in mice with virus-induced acute lung injury; significantly suppressed the growth of AGEs and proinflammatory cytokine levels in lung; reduced decrease of saturation index and hematological inflammatory markers; decreased level of inflammatory injury in lung tissue.
 Conclusion. Aminoguanidine relieved virus-induced acute lung injury in mice. These AGEs inhibitor reduced the proinflammatory response and structural changes in respiratory tract epithelial cells induced by reactive carbonyl compounds on cell membrane.
