To further investigate responses, 12 additional brain and lung biomarkers were assayed.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>METHODS:<\/jats:bold> A total of 15 healthy men (20 to 50\u2009yr) undertook consecutive same-day ascents to 25,000\u2009ft (7620\u2009m), following denitrogenation, breathing 100% oxygen. Venous blood was sampled at baseline (T0), after the second ascent (T8), and next morning (T24). Soluble protein markers of brain and lung insult were analyzed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay with plasma microparticles quantified using flow cytometry.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>RESULTS:<\/jats:bold> Levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 and high mobility group box protein 1 were elevated at T8, by 36% and 16%, respectively, before returning to baseline. Levels of soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products fell by 8%, recovering by T24. Brain-derived neurotrophic factor rose by 80% over baseline at T24. Monocyte microparticle levels rose by factors of 3.7 at T8 and 2.7 at T24 due to early and late responses in different subjects. Other biomarkers were unaffected or not detected consistently.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>DISCUSSION:<\/jats:bold> The elevated biomarkers at T8 suggest a neuroinflammatory response, with later elevation of brain-derived neurotrophic factor at T24 indicating an ongoing neurotrophic response and incomplete recovery. A substantial increase at T8 in the ratio of high mobility group box protein 1 to soluble receptor for advanced glycation end products suggests this axis may mediate the systemic inflammatory response to decompression. The mechanism of neuroinflammation is unclear but elevation of monocyte microparticles and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 imply a key role for activated monocytes and\/or macrophages.<\/jats:p>\n<jats:p><jats:bold>Connolly DM, Madden LA, Edwards VC, Lee VM. <jats:italic>Brain and lung biomarker responses to hyperoxic hypobaric decompression<\/jats:italic>.
