Basement membrane degradation can be indicative of tissue injury, but the process may also release matrix-bound cytokines to stimulate cell regeneration. To investigate this process, acute lung injury was induced in rats by intratracheal bleomycin and animals were killed from 3 days to 8 weeks later
Taurine and niacin have been previously found to block the accumulation of collagen in lung in the multidose bleomycin hamster model of pulmonary fibrosis. Previous studies have found an increase in the pulmonary collagen cross-links dihydroxylysinonoroleucine (DHLNL) and hydroxypyridinium (OHP) in
