<title>Abstract</title> <bold>Background</bold>: In this study, the effect of Dipyridamole (DIP) on lung tissue in lung ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury in rats was investigated. <bold>Methods</bold>: A total of 24 Wistar rats were divided into four equal groups with six rats in each group: Group Sham, Group I/R (ischemia/reperfusion), and Group I/R+ 10mg/kg DIP, Group I/R+ 100mg/kg DIP. 45 minutes of ischemia and 120 minutes of reperfusion were applied. <bold>Results</bold>: TNF-α value was decreased in Groups 10mg/kg DIP and I/R+ 100mg/kg DIP compared to Group I/R. TNF-α value value was lower in Groups 10mg/kg DIP and 100mg/kg DIP. The difference in TNF-α value was statistically significant between the groups (p=0.002). Statistically significant results were observed between Group I/R-DIP 100 mg/kg and Group I/R for TNF-α. (p=0.038). MDA value in the blood was higher in Group I/R than in Group Sham. MDA value was decreased in Groups 10mg/kg DIP and 100mg/kg DIP compared to Group I/R. However, the difference in MDA value was not statistically significant between the groups (p=0.071). Catalase level in the blood was higher in Group I/R than Group Sham.). The difference in CAT activity was statistically significant between the groups (p=0.025). Statistically significant results were observed between Group I/R-DIP 100 and Group I/R for CAT. (p=0.047). According to histopathological examination, lung tissue neutrophil infiltration, pulmonary edema, interstitial edema, alveolar hemorrhage and total score levels were significantly higher in Group I/R than Groups I/R-10mg/kg DIP and I/R-100mg/kg DIP(p=0.02, p=0.03, p=0.01, respectively, p=0.03 and p=0.01). Lung tissue pulmonary edema, interstitial edema, neutrophil infiltration, alveolar hemorrhage and total score levels were significantly lower in Group 10mg/kg DIP compared to Group I/R (p=0.03, p=0.01, p=0.02, p=0.03 and p=0.01, respectively). ). Lung tissue pulmonary edema, interstitial edema, neutrophil infiltration, alveolar hemorrhage and total score levels were significantly lower in Group I/R-100mg/kg DIP compared to Group I/R (p=0.009, p=0.002, p=0.001, p=0.002 and p=0.002, respectively). ). <bold>Conclusion</bold>: Lung tissue may be affected by ischemia/reperfusion injury, and this damage can be reversed with the use of dipyridamole.
