Dexmedetomidine improves acute lung injury by activating autophagy in a rat hemorrhagic shock and resuscitation model

Abstract Dexmedetomidine (DEX) can reduce lung injury in a hemorrhagic shock (HS) resuscitation (HSR) model in rats by inhibiting inflammation. Here, we aimed to investigate if these effects of DEX are due to autophagy activation. Therefore, we established HSR rat models and divided them into four g...
