  "abstract": "Background\n\nCigarette smoke causes acute lung injury (ALI). Mogroside V (MV) has been recently found to relieve cough and asthma symptoms and to eliminate phlegm. We tested the potential and mechanism of action of MV in alleviating cigarette smoke-induced ALI.Methods\n\nWe explored the effects and mechanisms of action of MV by using cigarette smoke extracts (CSE) in lung‑on‑a‑chip and mouse models. The levels of IL-18, IL-1β and TNF-α were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and qRT-PCR. Pulmonary gas-blood barrier was detected by qRT-PCR and western blot. TEER and FITC-dextran permeability assay measured cell barrier function. Western blot and qRT-PCR were used to detect the expression of autophagy-related genes and AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway-related proteins.Results\n\nCSE treatment caused an increase in inflammatory factors in a lung‑on‑a‑chip model. After MV treatment, the expression of pro-inflammatory factors decreased, the pulmonary gas-blood barrier disruption was improved in response to CSE. MV promoted autophagy and regulated the AMPK/mTOR pathway.Conclusion\n\nMV promotes autophagy and ameliorates cigarette smoke-induced ALI through the AMPK/mTOR signaling pathway in vitro and in vivo.",
