GABA receptor ameliorates ventilator-induced lung injury in rats by improving alveolar fluid clearance

INTRODUCTION: Mechanical ventilators are increasingly used in critical care units. However, they can cause lung injury, including pulmonary edema. Our previous studies indicated that γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) receptors are involved in alveolar-fluid homeostasis. The present study investigated the r...
