Urinary Trypsin Inhibitor (UTI) is involved in various aspects of tissue repair, regeneration and development. However, the potential role of UTI in protection against acute lung injury (ALI) remains largely unknown. In the present study, we demonstrated that UTI treatment could ameliorate ALI induced by oleic acid (OA) treatment in rabbit model.
