For primary alveolar epithelial type II (AT2) cells, glycolysis is an essential bioenergetic process. However, the significance of AT2 cell glycolysis in sepsis ALI remains unknown.<h4>Methods and results</h4>In the current study, based on microarray analysis, real-time quantitative PCR, and Western blotting, we found that the hsa00020: citrate cycle pathway was inactivated, specifically its downstream gene: malate dehydrogenase 1 (MDH1) and MDH2 in ALI. In this context, lipopolysaccharides (LPS) were used to construct the septic-ALI mouse model and the biological function of MDH1 and MDH2 in primary alveolar epithelial type II (AT2) cells was explored.
