IL6 and acute lung injury: In an ischemia/reperfusion-induced acute lung injury (ALI) model, the specific PAR-1 antagonist SCH530348 decreased lung edema and neutrophil infiltration, attenuated thrombin production, reduced inflammatory factors, including cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant-1, IL-6, and TNF-α, mitigated lung cell apoptosis, and downregulated phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K), nuclear factor-κB (NF-κB), and mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) pathways [73].
