Hemorrhage results in excessive production of superoxide that is associated with severe lung injury. We examined whether the superoxide dismutase (SOD) mimetic manganese(III) mesotetrakis (di-N-ethylimidazole) porphyrin (AEOL 10150) could attenuate this lung injury and whether extracellular (EC)-SOD-deficient mice would have increased hemorrhage-induced lung injury. Compared with wild-type mice, EC-SOD-deficient mice had increased lung neutrophil accumulation, a 3.9-fold increase in myeloperoxidase activity, a 1.5-fold increase in nuclear factor (NF)-kappaB activation, and a 1.5-fold increase in lipid peroxidation 1 h after hemorrhage. Pretreatment with AEOL 10150 did not attenuate neutrophil accumulation but significantly reduced NF-kappaB activation and lipid peroxidation in both wild-type and EC-SOD-deficient mice. The increase in hemorrhage-induced neutrophil accumulation in the lungs of EC-SOD-deficient mice suggests that EC-SOD might play a role in mediating neutrophil recruitment to the lung. 相似文献

Influenza A virus pandemics and emerging anti-viral resistance highlight the urgent need for novel generic pharmacological strategies that reduce both viral replication and lung inflammation. We investigated whether the primary enzymatic source of inflammatory cell ROS (reactive oxygen species), Nox2-containing NADPH oxidase, is a novel pharmacological target against the lung inflammation caused by influenza A viruses. Male WT (C57BL/6) and Nox2(-/y) mice were infected intranasally with low pathogenicity (X-31, H3N2) or higher pathogenicity (PR8, H1N1) influenza A virus. Viral titer, airways inflammation, superoxide and peroxynitrite production, lung histopathology, pro-inflammatory (MCP-1) and antiviral (IL-1β) cytokines/chemokines, CD8(+) T cell effector function and alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis were assessed. Infection of Nox2(-/y) mice with X-31 virus resulted in a significant reduction in viral titers, BALF macrophages, peri-bronchial inflammation, BALF inflammatory cell superoxide and lung tissue peroxynitrite production, MCP-1 levels and alveolar epithelial cell apoptosis when compared to WT control mice. Lung levels of IL-1β were ~3-fold higher in Nox2(-/y) mice. The numbers of influenza-specific CD8+D(b)NP(366)+ and D(b)PA(224)+ T cells in the BALF and spleen were comparable in WT and Nox2(-/y) mice. In vivo administration of the Nox2 inhibitor apocynin significantly suppressed viral titer, airways inflammation and inflammatory cell superoxide production following infection with X-31 or PR8. In conclusion, these findings indicate that Nox2 inhibitors have therapeutic potential for control of lung inflammation and damage in an influenza strain-independent manner. 相似文献

Within the respiratory epithelium of asthmatic patients, copper/zinc-containing superoxide dismutase (Cu/Zn SOD) is decreased. To address the hypothesis that lung Cu/Zn SOD protects against allergen-induced injury, wild-type and transgenic mice that overexpress human Cu/Zn SOD were either passively sensitized to ovalbumin (OVA) or actively sensitized by repeated airway exposure to OVA. Controls included nonsensitized wild-type and transgenic mice given intravenous saline or airway exposure to saline. After aerosol challenge to saline or OVA, segments of tracheal smooth muscle were obtained for in vitro analysis of neural control. In response to electrical field stimulation, wild-type sensitized mice challenged with OVA had significant increases in cholinergic reactivity. Conversely, sensitized transgenic mice challenged with OVA were resistant to changes in neural control. Stimulation of tracheal smooth muscle to elicit acetylcholine release showed that passively sensitized wild-type but not transgenic mice released more acetylcholine after OVA challenge. Function of the M(2) muscarinic autoreceptor was preserved in transgenic mice. These results demonstrate that murine airways with elevated Cu/Zn SOD were resistant to allergen-induced changes in neural control. 相似文献

Extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC SOD) is generally the least abundant SOD isozyme in tissues, while the intracellular Cu,Zn SOD is usually the most abundant isozyme. The biological significance of EC SOD is unknown. Immunolocalization studies show that EC SOD is in the connective tissue surrounding smooth muscle in vessels and airways within the lung. Endothelium derived relaxing factor, thought to be a nitric oxide (NO·) species, is a primary mediator of vascular relaxation. During NO·′ diffusion between the endothelium and smooth muscle, extracellular superoxide would be the most efficient scavenger of NO·. High levels of extracellualar superoxide dismutase in vessels could, therefore, be essential to enable NO' to modulate vascular tone. To evaluate the hypothesis that vessel walls are functionally rich in extracellular superoxide scavenging capacity, this study quantitates the EC SOD levels in pulmonary and systemic vessels and in airways. Both pulmonary and systemic arteries in humans and baboons were found to contain high activities of EC SOD. The level of EC SOD in all human and baboon arteries examined is greater than or equal to the level of intracellular Cu,Zn SOD, and EC SOD accounted for over 70% of the total SOD activity in some vessels examined. Immunolocalization of EC SOD in human and baboon vessels show similar distributions of this enzyme in pulmonary and systemic vessels. EC SOD is located beneath the endothelium, surrounding smooth muscle cells, and throughout the adventitia of vessels. The high level of EC SOD in vessels, and its localization between endothelial and smooth muscle cells, suggest that regulation of superoxide may be particularly important in this region, possibly in regulating vascular tone. 相似文献

Selenium (Se) deficiency is associated with decreased activities of Se-dependent antioxidant enzymes, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and thioredoxin reductase (TR), and with changes in the cellular redox status. We have previously shown that host Se deficiency is responsible for increased virulence of influenza virus in mice due to changes in the viral genome. The present study examines the antioxidant defense systems in the lung and liver of Se-deficient and Se-adequate mice infected with influenza A/Bangkok/1/79. Results show that neither Se status nor infection changed glutathione (GSH) concentration in the lung. Hepatic GSH concentration was lower in Se-deficient mice, but increased significantly day 5 post infection. No significant differences due to Se status or influenza infection were found in catalase activities. As expected, Se deficiency was associated with significant decreases in GPx and TR activities in both lung and liver. GPx activity increased in the lungs and decreased in the liver of Se-adequate mice in response to infection. Both Se deficiency and influenza infection had profound effects on the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD). The hepatic SOD activity was higher in Se-deficient than Se-adequate mice before infection. However, following influenza infection, hepatic SOD activity in Se-adequate mice gradually increased. Influenza infection was associated with a significant increase of SOD activity in the lungs of Se-deficient, but not Se-adequate mice. The maximum of SOD activity coincided with the peak of pathogenesis in infected lungs. These data suggest that SOD activation in the lung and liver may be a part of a compensatory response to Se deficiency and/or influenza infection. However, SOD activation that leads to increased production of H(2)O(2) may also contribute to pathogenesis and to influenza virus mutation in lungs of Se-deficient mice. 相似文献

Asbestosis is a chronic form of interstitial lung disease characterized by inflammation and fibrosis that results from the inhalation of asbestos fibers. Although the pathogenesis of asbestosis is poorly understood, reactive oxygen species may mediate the progression of this disease. The antioxidant enzyme extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) can protect the lung against a variety of insults; however, its role in asbestosis is unknown. To determine if EC-SOD plays a direct role in protecting the lung from asbestos-induced injury, intratracheal injections of crocidolite were given to wild-type and ec-sod-null mice. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) from asbestos-treated ec-sod-null mice at 24 h, 14 days, or 28 days posttreatment showed increased inflammation and total BALF protein content compared to that of wild-type mice. In addition, lungs from ec-sod-null mice showed increased hydroxyproline content compared to those of wild-type mice, indicating a greater fibrotic response. Finally, lungs from ec-sod-null mice showed greater oxidative damage, as assessed by nitrotyrosine content compared to those of their wild-type counterparts. These results indicate that depletion of EC-SOD from the lung increases oxidative stress and injury in response to asbestos. 相似文献

Influenza virus is a common respiratory tract viral infection. Although influenza can be fatal in patients with chronic pulmonary diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, its pathogenesis is not fully understood. The Nrf2-mediated antioxidant system is essential to protect the lungs from oxidative injury and inflammation. In the present study, we investigated the role of Nrf2 in protection against influenza virus-induced pulmonary inflammation after cigarette smoke exposure with both in vitro and in vivo approaches. For in vitro analyses, peritoneal macrophages isolated from wild-type and Nrf2-deficient mice were treated with poly(I:C) and/or cigarette smoke extract. For in vivo analysis, these mice were infected with influenza A virus with or without exposure to cigarette smoke. In Nrf2-deficient macrophages, NF-κB activation and the induction of its target inflammatory genes were enhanced after costimulation with cigarette smoke extract and poly(I:C) compared with wild-type macrophages. The induction of antioxidant genes was observed for the lungs of wild-type mice but not those of Nrf2-deficient mice after cigarette smoke exposure. Cigarette smoke-exposed Nrf2-deficient mice showed higher rates of mortality than did wild-type mice after influenza virus infection, with enhanced peribronchial inflammation, lung permeability damage, and mucus hypersecretion. Lung oxidant levels and NF-κB-mediated inflammatory gene expression in the lungs were also enhanced in Nrf2-deficient mice. Our data indicate that the antioxidant pathway controlled by Nrf2 is pivotal for protection against the development of influenza virus-induced pulmonary inflammation and injury under oxidative conditions. 相似文献

The role of interleukin (IL)-18 in the protection from interstitial pneumonia and pulmonary fibrosis induced by bleomycin (BLM) was investigated by comparing the severity of BLM-induced lung injuries between wild-type and C57BL/6 mice with a targeted knockout mutation of the IL-18 gene (IL-18-/- mice). IL-18-/- mice showed much worse lung injuries than wild-type mice, as assessed by the survival rate, histological images, and leukocyte infiltration in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and myeloperoxidase activity. In wild-type mice, administration of IL-18 before BLM instillation resulted in suppression of lung injuries, increases in the hydroxyproline content, and decreases in the granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor content in the lung. Preadministration of IL-18 also resulted in prevention of the reduction of the lung IL-10 content caused by BLM-induced damage of alveolar epithelial. BLM instillation suppressed superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity in IL-18-/- mice to a greater extent than in wild-type mice. Pretreatment of IL-18 augmented Mn-containing superoxide dismutase (Mn-SOD) messenger RNA expression and SOD activity in the lung and prevented the reduction of SOD activity caused by BLM in both wild-type and IL-18-/- mice. These results suggest that IL-18 plays a protective role against BLM-induced lung injuries by upregulating a defensive molecule, Mn-SOD. 相似文献

Asthma is believed to be a risk factor for influenza infection, however little experimental evidence exists to directly demonstrate the impact of asthma on susceptibility to influenza infection. Using a mouse model, we now report that asthmatic mice are actually significantly more resistant to a lethal influenza virus challenge. Notably, the observed increased resistance was not attributable to enhanced viral clearance, but instead, was due to reduced lung inflammation. Asthmatic mice exhibited a significantly reduced cytokine storm, as well as reduced total protein levels and cytotoxicity in the airways, indicators of decreased tissue injury. Further, asthmatic mice had significantly increased levels of TGF-β1 and the heightened resistance of asthmatic mice was abrogated in the absence of TGF-β receptor II. We conclude that a transient increase in TGF-β expression following acute asthma can induce protection against influenza-induced immunopathology. 相似文献

Influenza pneumonia results in considerable lung injury, a significant component of which is mediated by CD8+ T cell Ag recognition in the distal airways and alveoli. TNF-alpha produced by Ag-specific CD8+ T cells appears primarily responsible for this immunopathology, and we have examined the negative regulation of CD8+ TNF production by CD94/NKG2A engagement with its receptor, Qa-1b. TNF production by antiviral CD8+ T cells was significantly enhanced by NKG2A blockade in vitro, and mice deficient in the NKG2A ligand, Qa-1b, manifested significantly greater pulmonary pathology upon CD8+ T cell-mediated clearance in influenza pneumonia. Furthermore, blockade of NKG2A ligation resulted in the enhancement of lung injury induced by CD8+ effector cell recognition of alveolar Ag in vivo in the absence of infectious virus. These data demonstrate that CD94/NKG2A transduces a biologically important signal in vivo to activated CD8+ T cells that limits immunopathology in severe influenza infection. 相似文献

We investigated the synergism between influenza virus and Streptococcus pneumoniae, particularly the role of deletions in the stalk region of the neuraminidase (NA) of H2N2 and H9N2 avian influenza viruses. Deletions in the NA stalk (ΔNA) had no effect on NA activity or on the adherence of S. pneumoniae to virus-infected human alveolar epithelial (A549) and mouse lung adenoma (LA-4) cells, although it delayed virus elution from turkey red blood cells. Sequential S. pneumoniae infection of mice previously inoculated with isogenic recombinant H2N2 and H9N2 influenza viruses displayed severe pneumonia, elevated levels of intrapulmonary proinflammatory responses, and death. No differences between the WT and ΔNA mutant viruses were detected with respect to effects on postinfluenza pneumococcal pneumonia as measured by bacterial growth, lung inflammation, morbidity, mortality, and cytokine/chemokine concentrations. Differences were observed, however, in influenza virus-infected mice that were treated with oseltamivir prior to a challenge with S. pneumoniae. Under these circumstances, mice infected with ΔNA viruses were associated with a better prognosis following a secondary bacterial challenge. These data suggest that the H2N2 and H9N2 subtypes of avian influenza A viruses can contribute to secondary bacterial pneumonia and deletions in the NA stalk may modulate its outcome in the context of antiviral therapy. 相似文献

CD8(+) T cells contribute to the pathophysiology of Pneumocystis pneumonia (PcP) in a murine model of AIDS-related disease. The present studies were undertaken to more precisely define the mechanisms by which these immune cells mediate the inflammatory response that leads to lung injury. Experimental mice were depleted of either CD4(+) T cells or both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and then infected with Pneumocystis: The CD4(+)-depleted mice had significantly greater pulmonary TNF-alpha levels than mice depleted of both CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. Elevated TNF-alpha levels were associated with increased lung concentrations of the chemokines RANTES, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, macrophage-inflammatory protein 2, and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant. To determine whether TNFR signaling was involved in the CD8(+) T cell-dependent chemokine response, TNFRI- and II-deficient mice were CD4(+) depleted and infected with Pneumocystis: TNFR-deficient mice had significantly reduced pulmonary RANTES, monocyte chemoattractant protein 1, macrophage-inflammatory protein 2, and cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant responses, reduced inflammatory cell recruitment to the alveoli, and reduced histological evidence of PcP-related alveolitis as compared with infected wild-type mice. Diminished pulmonary inflammation correlated with improved surfactant activity and improved pulmonary function in the TNFR-deficient mice. These data indicate that TNFR signaling is required for maximal CD8(+) T cell-dependent pulmonary inflammation and lung injury during PcP and also demonstrate that CD8(+) T cells can use TNFR signaling pathways to respond to an extracellular fungal pathogen. 相似文献

Interleukin-1 receptor like 1 (ST2) is a negative regulator of Toll-like receptor (TLR) signaling. TLRs are important for host defense during respiratory tract infections by both influenza and Streptococcus (S.) pneumoniae. Enhanced susceptibility to pneumococcal pneumonia is an important complication following influenza virus infection. We here sought to determine the role of ST2 in primary influenza A infection and secondary pneumococcal pneumonia. ST2 knockout (st2
−/−) and wild-type (WT) mice were intranasally infected with influenza A virus; in some experiments mice were infected 2 weeks later with S. pneumoniae. Both mouse strains cleared the virus similarly during the first 14 days of influenza infection and had recovered their weights equally at day 14. Overall st2−/− mice tended to have a stronger pulmonary inflammatory response upon infection with influenza; especially 14 days after infection modest but statistically significant elevations were seen in lung IL-6, IL-1β, KC, IL-10, and IL-33 concentrations and myeloperoxidase levels, indicative of enhanced neutrophil activity. Interestingly, bacterial lung loads were higher in st2−/− mice during the later stages of secondary pneumococcal pneumonia, which was associated with relatively increased lung IFN-γ levels. ST2 deficiency did not impact on gross lung pathology in either influenza or secondary S. pneumoniae pneumonia. These data show that ST2 plays a limited anti-inflammatory role during both primary influenza and postinfluenza pneumococcal pneumonia. 相似文献

The effect of Wen-Pi-Tang extract on influenza virus infection in mice was investigated. The administration of Wen-Pi-Tang extract at a dose of 100 mg/kg body wt. for 8 consecutive days to influenza virus-infected mice reversed the lack of body wt. gain and prevented the increase in lung weight caused by the infection in comparison with uninfected mice, while allopurinol, a xanthine oxidase (XOD) inhibitor, did not show these effects. The serum levels of uric acid and allantoin in influenza virus-infected mice were reduced by Wen-Pi-Tang extract administration. Moreover, Wen-Pi-Tang extract reduced the uric acid level more as the dose increased, although it exerted lower activity than allopurinol. The XOD activity of the lungs was elevated by influenza virus infection, but Wen-Pi-Tang extract administration inhibited this activity, indicating prevention of lung damage by oxygen free radicals generated by XOD. After the administration of Wen-Pi-Tang extract to influenza virus-infected mice, the lung superoxide dismutase activity was not significantly different from that of uninfected mice, whereas lung catalase activity was lower in the former than the latter, but slightly higher than that of influenza virus-infected mice, suggesting that Wen-Pi-Tang extract may prevent the generation of highly toxic hydroxyl radicals in the lung. In addition, the administration of both Wen-Pi-Tang extract and allopurinol reduced the degree of lung consolidation caused by influenza virus infection. In particular, Wen-Pi-Tang extract reduced the consolidation score in a dose-dependent manner and more markedly than allopurinol did. This study suggests that Wen-Pi-Tang extract could improve pathological conditions of the lungs induced by influenza virus infection. 相似文献

Background
Influenza pneumonia causes high mortality every year, and pandemic episodes kill millions of people. Influenza-related mortality has been variously ascribed to an ineffective host response that fails to limit viral replication, an excessive host inflammatory response that results in lung injury and impairment of gas exchange, or to bacterial superinfection. We sought to determine whether lung inflammation promoted or impaired host survival in influenza pneumonia.Methods and Findings
To distinguish among these possible causes of influenza-related death, we induced robust lung inflammation by exposing mice to an aerosolized bacterial lysate prior to challenge with live virus. The treatment induced expression of the inflammatory cytokines IL-6 and TNF in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid 8- and 40-fold greater, respectively, than that caused by lethal influenza infection. Yet, this augmented inflammation was associated with striking resistance to host mortality (0% vs 90% survival, p = 0.0001) and reduced viral titers (p = 0.004). Bacterial superinfection of virus infected lungs was not observed. When mice were repeatedly exposed to the bacterial lysate, as would be clinically desirable during an influenza epidemic, there was no tachyphylaxis of the induced viral resistance. When the bacterial lysate was administered after the viral challenge, there was still some mortality benefit, and when ribavirin was added to the aerosolized bacterial lysate, host survival was synergistically improved (0% vs 93.3% survival, p<0.0001).Conclusions
Together, these data indicate that innate immune resistance to influenza can be effectively stimulated, and suggest that ineffective rather than excessive inflammation is the major cause of mortality in influenza pneumonia. 相似文献16.

The influenza A virus protein PB1-F2 has been linked to the pathogenesis of both primary viral and secondary bacterial infections. H3N2 viruses have historically expressed full-length PB1-F2 proteins with either proinflammatory (e.g., from influenza A/Hong Kong/1/1968 virus) or noninflammatory (e.g., from influenza A/Wuhan/359/1995 virus) properties. Using synthetic peptides derived from the active C-terminal portion of the PB1-F2 protein from those two viruses, we mapped the proinflammatory domain to amino acid residues L62, R75, R79, and L82 and then determined the role of that domain in H3N2 influenza virus pathogenicity. PB1-F2-derived peptides containing that proinflammatory motif caused significant morbidity, mortality, and pulmonary inflammation in mice, manifesting as increased acute lung injury and the presence of proinflammatory cytokines and inflammatory cells in the lungs compared to peptides lacking this motif, and better supported bacterial infection with Streptococcus pneumoniae. Infections of mice with an otherwise isogenic virus engineered to contain this proinflammatory sequence in PB1-F2 demonstrated increased morbidity resulting from primary viral infections and enhanced development of secondary bacterial pneumonia. The presence of the PB1-F2 noninflammatory (P62, H75, Q79, and S82) sequence in the wild-type virus mediated an antibacterial effect. These data suggest that loss of the inflammatory PB1-F2 phenotype that supports bacterial superinfection during adaptation of H3N2 viruses to humans, coupled with acquisition of antibacterial activity, contributes to the relatively diminished frequency of severe infections seen with seasonal H3N2 influenza viruses in recent decades compared to their first 2 decades of circulation. 相似文献

Respirovirus infection can cause viral pneumonia and acute lung injury (ALI).The interleukin-1 (IL-1) family consists of proinflammatory cytokines that play essential roles in regulating immune and inflammatory responses in vivo.IL-1 signaling is associated with protection against respiratory influenza virus infection by mediation of the pulmonary anti-viral immune response and inflammation.We analyzed the infiltration lung immune leukocytes and cytokines that contribute to inflammatory lung pathology and mortality of fatal H1N1 virus-infected IL-1 receptor 1 (IL-1R1) deficient mice.Results showed that early innate immune cells and cytokine/chemokine dysregulation were observed with significantly decreased neutrophil infiltration and IL-6,TNF-α,G-CSF,KC,and MIP-2 cytokine levels in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid of infected IL-1R1-/-mice in comparison with that of wild type infected mice.The adaptive immune response against the H1N1 virus in IL-1R1-/-mice was impaired with downregulated anti-viral Th1 cell,CD8+ cell,and antibody functions,which contributes to attenuated viral clearance.Histological analysis revealed reduced lung inflammation during early infection but severe lung pathology in late infection in IL-1R1-/-mice compared with that in WT infected mice.Moreover,the infected IL-1R1-/-mice showed markedly reduced neutrophil generation in bone marrow and neutrophil recruitment to the inflamed lung.Together,these results suggest that IL-1 signaling is associated with pulmonary anti-influenza immune response and inflammatory lung injury,particularly via the influence on neutrophil mobilization and inflammatory cytokine/chemokine production. 相似文献

Rationale
During the recent H1N1 outbreak, obese patients had worsened lung injury and increased mortality. We used a murine model of influenza A pneumonia to test the hypothesis that leptin receptor deficiency might explain the enhanced mortality in obese patients.Methods
We infected wild-type, obese mice globally deficient in the leptin receptor (db/db) and non-obese mice with tissue specific deletion of the leptin receptor in the lung epithelium (SPC-Cre/LepRfl/fl) or macrophages and alveolar type II cells (LysM-Cre/Leprfl/fl) with influenza A virus (A/WSN/33 [H1N1]) (500 and 1500 pfu/mouse) and measured mortality, viral clearance and several markers of lung injury severity.Results
The clearance of influenza A virus from the lungs of mice was impaired in obese mice globally deficient in the leptin receptor (db/db) compared to normal weight wild-type mice. In contrast, non-obese, SP-C-Cre+/+/LepRfl/fl and LysM-Cre+/+/LepRfl/fl had improved viral clearance after influenza A infection. In obese mice, mortality was increased compared with wild-type mice, while the SP-C-Cre+/+/LepRfl/fl and LysM-Cre+/+/LepRfl /fl mice exhibited improved survival.Conclusions
Global loss of the leptin receptor results in reduced viral clearance and worse outcomes following influenza A infection. These findings are not the result of the loss of leptin signaling in lung epithelial cells or macrophages. Our results suggest that factors associated with obesity or with leptin signaling in non-myeloid populations such as natural killer and T cells may be associated with worsened outcomes following influenza A infection. 相似文献19.

Although influenza infection alone may lead to pneumonia, secondary bacterial infections are a much more common cause of pneumonia. Streptococcus pneumoniae is the most frequently isolated causative pathogen during postinfluenza pneumonia. Considering that S. pneumoniae utilizes the platelet-activating factor receptor (PAFR) to invade the respiratory epithelium and that the PAFR is upregulated during viral infection, we here used PAFR gene-deficient (PAFR-/-) mice to determine the role of this receptor during postinfluenza pneumococcal pneumonia. Viral clearance was similar in wild-type and PAFR-/- mice, and influenza virus was completely removed from the lungs at the time mice were inoculated with S. pneumoniae (day 14 after influenza infection). PAFR-/- mice displayed a significantly reduced bacterial outgrowth in their lungs, a diminished dissemination of the infection, and a prolonged survival. Pulmonary levels of IL-10 and KC were significantly lower in PAFR-/- mice, whereas IL-6 and TNF-alpha were only trendwise lower. These data indicate that the pneumococcus uses the PAFR leading to severe pneumonia in a host previously exposed to influenza A. 相似文献

The antioxidant enzyme extracellular superoxide dismutase (EC-SOD) is abundant in the lung and is known to limit inflammation and fibrosis following numerous pulmonary insults. Previous studies have reported a loss of full-length EC-SOD from the pulmonary parenchyma with accumulation of proteolyzed EC-SOD in the airspace after an interstitial lung injury. However, following airspace only inflammation, EC-SOD accumulates in the airspace without a loss from the interstitium, suggesting this antioxidant may be released from an extrapulmonary source. Because leukocytes are known to express EC-SOD and are prevalent in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) after injury, it was hypothesized that these cells may transport and release EC-SOD into airspaces. To test this hypothesis, C57BL/6 wild-type and EC-SOD knockout mice were irradiated and transplanted with bone marrow from either wild-type mice or EC-SOD knockout mice. Bone marrow chimeric mice were then intratracheally treated with asbestos and killed 3 and 7 days later. At both 3 and 7 days following asbestos injury, mice without pulmonary EC-SOD expression but with EC-SOD in infiltrating and resident leukocytes did not have detectable levels of EC-SOD in the airspaces. In addition, leukocyte-derived EC-SOD did not significantly lessen inflammation or early stage fibrosis that resulted from asbestos injury in the lungs. Although it is not influential in the asbestos-induced interstitial lung injury model, EC-SOD is still known to be present in leukocytes and may play an influential role in attenuating pneumonias and other inflammatory diseases. 相似文献
