We determined H 2 O displacement lung volumes at total lung capacity (25 cmH 2 O airway pressure) as the simplest measure to document the hyperexpansion characteristic of emphysema in the elastase-treated animals.
It is possible that in emphysema, the additional impact on diaphragmatic physiology of fiber shortening resulting from pulmonary hyperexpansion [ 1 2 3 4 5 6 ] affects MHC isoform shifts beyond the influence of a pure increase in the workload on the muscle.
Other factors that might lead to less impressive MHC shifts in rodent models of emphysema than in humans include the much shorter time course over which the adaptations have a chance to occur, the greater compliance of the rodent thorax to pulmonary hyperexpansion, and differences in the diaphragmatic load created in the human disease in comparison with the animal models that have yet to be fully worked out.
