Leukocyte subsets in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid and peripheral blood of patients with paraccoccidioidomycosis, sarcoidosis and silicosis were characterized using monoclonal antibodies and an immunoperoxidase technique. In paraccocidioidomycosis, the number of T-helper/inducer CD4-positive lymphocytes was lower in peripheral blood than in BAL fluid. Additional analysis showed that the expression of HLA-DR was very similar in alveolar macrophages, lung and blood T-cells. In sarcoidosis and silicosis there were higher proportions of T-helper/inducer cells in peripheral blood than in BAL fluid. The alterations in the T-helper/inducer/T-suppressor/cytoxic CD4/CD8 ratio in sarcoidosis and silicosis were more appreciable in peripheral blood than in BAL fluid, contrasting with the results in paracoccidioidomycosis. The expression of HLA-DR by alveolar macrophages in sarcoidosis was the highest of all the disease studied. No statistically significant differences were observed between chronic multifocal and chronic unifocal paracoccidioidomycosis disease, stage II and stage III sarcoidosis, and chronic and accelerated silicosis. The three granulomatous diseases analyzed had a few alveolar macrophages expressing the CD4 molecule on their surface. These findings and the technique of analyzing both peripheral blood and BAL leukocyte subsets may help to understand the pathogenesis of interstitial lung diseases. 相似文献

To study the effect of maturation on abilities of superoxide radicals (O-2) generation in the airways, we compared stimuli-induced O-2 generation by alveolar macrophages in immature (aged 10+/-2 days) and adult (aged 90+/-2 days) guinea-pigs. The production of O-2 was assayed by chemiluminescence method, using a Cypridina luciferin analog as a highly sensitive and specific probe for O-2. Whereas no significant difference in cell components of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid was observed between immature and adult animals, O-2 generation induced by stimulation of alveolar macrophages was greater in immature than in adult animals, with significant differences observed after platelet-activating factor (100 nM) or phorbol myristate acetate (0.5 micro g/ml). The results suggest that alveolar macrophages from immature animals are far more potent O-2 generators than the same cells of adult animals. 相似文献

Summary Responses of a recently developed rat alveolar macrophage cell (NR8383.1) line were compared to those of freshly derived alveolar
macrophages in vitro. Marked inter- and intraspecies heterogeneity in levels of phagocytosis of unopsonizedPseudomonas aeruginosa or zymosan was noted among freshly derived alveolar macrophages from rats, rabbits, and baboons. In contrast, phagocytic
responses of alveolar macrophage cell line were predictable and highly reproducible. Similar results were obtained in measuring
oxidative burst, as indicated by the production of H2O2 and luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence. Responses were again highly variable in freshly derived alveolar macrophages stimulated
with zymosan or phorbol myristic acetate; moreover, freshly derived alveolar macrophages exhibited a wide range of chemiluminescence
activity in unstimulated cultures. Results strongly suggest that data derived from the continuous alveolar macrophage culture
NR8383.1 can be extrapolated to freshly derived alveolar macrophages of various species, and in many experiments will be useful
in avoiding the significant animal-to-animal variance observed among freshly derived cell preparations.

Summary A tartrate-resistant purple acid phosphatase was localized in human and bovine alveolar macrophages by enzyme- and immuno-histochemistry using an antibody to bovine spleen purple phosphatase. The enzyme could be detected in human and bovine lung tissues as well as on cytospin preparations of alveolar macrophage suspensions from bronchoalveolar lavages. The immunological identity of human and bovine purple phosphatases from alveolar macrophages was demonstrated by Western blot analysis of material separated by polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. A possible significance of the purple phosphatase as a marker enzyme of activated cells of the mononuclear phagocyte system is discussed. 相似文献

Group B streptococci (GBS) are important pathogens in neonatal sepsis and pneumonia. GBS stimulate alveolar macrophages to produce inflammatory cytokines and free oxygen radicals, which can damage the lungs. In several studies, use of exogenous surfactant in term babies has improved outcome related to sepsis and respiratory failure. The role(s) of exogenous surfactant in modulating the inflammatory response produced by this microbe was examined. Tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) production and luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence (LCL), a measure of respiratory burst, were investigated. For measuring TNF-alpha release, RAW 264.7 murine macrophages were pre-incubated with bovine surfactant and stimulated with either lipopolysaccharide, live or heat-killed GBS type Ia. LCL was measured after macrophages were pre-incubated with or without surfactant overnight, then stimulated with GBS or phorbol myristate acetate. Lipopolysaccharide and GBS stimulated TNF-alpha secretion from macrophages that was suppressed by exogenous surfactant in a dose-dependent fashion. GBS and phorbol myristate acetate also increased LCL from macrophages, which was significantly suppressed by pre-incubation of macrophages with exogenous surfactant. We conclude that GBS type Ia stimulates TNF-alpha release and LCL from RAW 264.7 cells and that these responses are suppressed by surfactant. Suppression of inflammatory mediators by exogenous surfactant might improve respiratory disease associated with GBS. 相似文献

Current concepts of pulmonary sarcoidosis suggest that the alveolar macrophage plays a central role in the pathogenesis of the disease. To help define the population of alveolar macrophages in sarcoidosis, we compared the surface phenotype of alveolar macrophages from patients with sarcoidosis and from normal individuals by using monoclonal antibodies (63D3, OKM1, M phi P-9, M phi S-1, 61D3, and M phi S-39) that detect surface antigens on cells of monocyte/macrophage lineage. Although almost all blood monocytes expressed surface antigens detected by each of these antibodies, only a minority of normal alveolar macrophages expressed the same surface antigens (p less than 0.05, each comparison). However, in sarcoidosis, the percentage of alveolar macrophages expressing these surface antigens was increased (p less than 0.05, each comparison with normal alveolar macrophages). Several findings supported the conclusion that the increased expression of these monocyte-lineage surface antigens on sarcoid alveolar macrophages resulted from increased recruitment of monocytes to the lung in sarcoidosis and not from abnormal "activation" of alveolar macrophages. First, alveolar macrophages expressing these antigens had an immature morphology. Second, in vitro cultivation of blood monocytes and alveolar macrophages in the presence of immune and inflammatory mediators, including mediators known to be present in the lung in sarcoidosis, did not prevent the loss of expression of monocyte-lineage surface antigens from monocytes or induce reexpression of monocyte-lineage surface antigens on alveolar macrophages. Third, the expression of monocyte-lineage surface antigens was only increased on sarcoid macrophages from patients whose lower respiratory tract contained an increased number of T lymphocytes, cells known to release monocyte chemotactic factor in sarcoidosis. Consistent with the knowledge that corticosteroids usually suppress the alveolitis of active sarcoidosis, when the expression of alveolar macrophage surface antigens was evaluated before and during therapy, the percentage of alveolar macrophages expressing monocyte-lineage surface antigens returned to normal after 1 to 3 mo of therapy.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS) 相似文献

Alveolar macrophages have recently been postulated as being involved in the aetiology of adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). To evaluate their role, basal cyclic AMP levels and responsiveness of adenylyl cyclase alveolar macrophages were determined at four intermediate stages of developing respiratory distress in piglets using a protocol with repeated lung lavage. Examination of alveolar cells recovered from the subsequent lavages reveals an influx of granulocytes (neutrophils and eosinophils) within 1 h of two intensive lung lavages. During the developing respiratory distress the basal cyclic AMPlevel of alveolar macrophages increases and adenylyl cyclase responsiveness to prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) and isoprelanaline diminishes. The previously observed impairment of macrophage activity can then be explained at a subcellular level. 相似文献

Human alveolar macrophages (AM) were demonstrated to generate reactive toxic derivatives of oxygen in many pulmonary disorders. These cells are involved in local inflammation which characterizes bronchial asthma. In the present work, we studied the ability of stimulated macrophages from healthy volunteers, and asthmatic patients to generate oxygen species in vitro. AM obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage were purified by adherence. The production of oxygen species was measured by luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence (CL) after challenge with opsonized zymosan. The maximal values were significantly (p < 0.03 and p < 0.01) higher in AM from asthmatics than in AM from healthy subjects. A significant correlation (p < 0.01) was observed between maximal value of CL and the severity of asthma as assessed by the clinical score. But, no difference was observed between AM from asthmatics in a stable state and healthy subjects. On the other hand, assays for superoxide anion generation emphasized the activation state of these macrophages stimulated by formyl-peptides. 相似文献

The nature of soluble factors that regulate fibroblast proliferation have not been finally characterized. Our aim was to study the role of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) and interleukin-1 (IL-1) in the suppressive activity of alveolar macrophages on autologous lung fibroblasts proliferation in sarcoidosis. We found that supernatants recovered from alveolar macrophages suppressed the proliferation of alveolar fibroblast in sarcoidosis by 35.5 +/- 1.13% compared to 3 +/- 16% in controls (p < 0.001 between the two groups). This suppression correlated with high content of TNF-alpha and IL-1 in sarcoidosis patients stage II-III (7.7 +/- 2.9 ng/ml TNF-alpha and 157 +/- 53 U/ml IL-1 compared to 3.4 +/- 2.4 ng/ml TNF-alpha and 43 U/ml IL-1 in controls; p < 0.01 and p < 0.001, respectively). Both cytokines in sarcoidosis stage I were within the normal ranges. Exogenous TNF-alpha (1000-0.5 ng/ml) and IL-1 (500-0.24 ng/ml) had an additive suppressive activity on fibroblast proliferation which was partially reversed by indomethacin. 相似文献

Cell population obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage in Pneumocystis carinii pneumonitis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
In the course of bronchoalveolar lavages performed in 115 immunocompromised patients in order to investigate the occurrences of pneumonitis, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia was diagnosed by demonstration of cysts in bronchoalveolar lavage specimens from 11 patients. The cellular phenomena associated with P. carinii infection at the level of the alveolar space were evaluated. Differential cell counts on bronchoalveolar lavage preparations stained by the May-Grünwald-Giemsa method were performed in immunocompromised patients and in ten nonimmunocompromised patients without any respiratory disease. A decrease in the alveolar macrophage count associated with an increase in the polymorphonuclear neutrophil count and the presence of plasma cells and/or immunoblasts was highly suggestive of P. carinii pneumonia. These cellular changes in bronchoalveolar lavage specimens are discussed in relation to the pathologic features usually described in P. carinii pneumonia. 相似文献

Platelet-activating factor (PAF)-acetylhydrolase and PAF-like compounds in the lung: effects of hyperoxia. 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Platelet-activating factor (PAF)-acetylhydrolase is the enzyme modulating in tissues and biological fluids the concentration of the proinflammatory factors PAF and PAF-like oxidation products of phospholipids (PAF-like compounds). We investigated whether there is a relation between PAF-acetylhydrolase activity and the concentration of PAF-like compounds in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL). We found that alveolar type II cells are an additional source of PAF-acetylhydrolase in BAL beside macrophages. Secretion of PAF-acetylhydrolase was stimulated by phorbol ester in alveolar type II cells but not in macrophages. Studies in BAL suggested that secreted PAF-acetylhydrolase was bound to alveolar surfactant. Exposure of rats to high oxygen concentration reduced the activity of PAF-acetylhydrolase in BAL and macrophages, but not in plasma or alveolar type II cells. In contrast, hyperoxia increased the concentration of PAF-like-compounds, lipid hydroperoxides and malonedialdehyde in plasma but not in BAL. Therefore, we conclude that neither the oxidant-induced decrease of the PAF-acetylhydrolase activity nor the direct peroxidation of surfactant lipids in the alveoli provide a likely mechanism for hyperoxia-induced lung injury. Instead, lung injury is apparently caused by lipid peroxidation in plasma rather than by high oxygen pressure in the alveoli. 相似文献

Background
Pulmonary sarcoidosis is an inflammatory disease, characterized by an accumulation of CD4+ lymphocytes and the formation of non-caseating epithelioid cell granulomas in the lungs. The disease either resolves spontaneously or develops into a chronic disease with fibrosis. The neurotrophins nerve growth factor (NGF), brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) and neurotrophin-3 (NT-3) have been suggested to be important mediators of inflammation and mediate tissue remodelling. In support of this, we have recently reported enhanced NGF levels in the airways of patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis. However, less is known about levels of BDNF and NT-3, and moreover, knowledge in the cellular sources of neurotrophins and the distribution of the corresponding neurotrophin receptors in airway tissue in sarcoidosis is lacking.Methods
The concentrations of NGF, BDNF and NT-3 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of 41 patients with newly diagnosed pulmonary sarcoidosis and 27 healthy controls were determined with ELISA. The localization of neurotrophins and neurotrophin receptors were examined by immunohistochemistry on transbronchial lung biopsies from sarcoidosis patients.Results
The sarcoidosis patients showed significantly enhanced NT-3 and NGF levels in BALF, whereas BDNF was undetectable in both patients and controls. NT-3 levels in BALF were found higher in patients with non-Löfgren sarcoidosis as compared to patients with Löfgren''s syndrome, and in more advanced disease stage. Epithelioid cells and multinucleated giant cells within the sarcoid granulomas showed marked immunoreactivity for NGF, BDNF and NT-3. Also, immunoreactivity for the neurotrophin receptor TrkA, TrkB and TrkC, was found within the granulomas. In addition, alveolar macrophages showed positive immunoreactivity for NGF, BDNF and NT-3 as well as for TrkA, TrkB and TrkC.Conclusions
This study provides evidence of enhanced neurotrophin levels locally within the airways of patients with sarcoidosis. Findings suggest that sarcoid granuloma cells and alveolar macrophages are possible cellular sources of, as well as targets for, neurotrophins in the airways of these patients. 相似文献15.

Mononuclear phagocytes were isolated by adherence from peripheral blood, peritoneal exudates, early lactation milk, ovarian carcinomatous ascites and bronchoalveolar lavages. Their capacity to modulate natural killer (NK) activity was assessed by mixing them with blood lymphocytes and by measuring lysis of 51Cr-labeled K562 cells. Unlike other mononuclear phagocyte populations, alveolar macrophages caused a marked dose-dependent inhibition of NK activity. Significant inhibition (40%) of the expression of cytotoxicity was evident at a ratio of alveolar macrophages to lymphoid cells of 0.12:1, and more than 80% suppression was usually observed at a ratio of 0.5:1. Blood monocytes, peritoneal and milk macrophages were consistently inactive up to the highest ratio tested, 2:1. Inhibition of the expression of NK activity by alveolar macrophages was observed at lymphocyte to K562 ratios ranging from 6:1 to 100:1 and over a 4 h or 20 h 51Cr release assay. Alveolar macrophages also inhibited interferon-stimulated cytotoxicity. Alveolar macrophages are unique among the mononuclear phagocyte populations studied in their capacity to inhibit the expression of NK activity effectively, and they could play a role in determining the low levels of NK activity associated with human pulmonary tissue. 相似文献

Fas antigen is a cell surface receptor protein that mediates apoptosis expressed in various cells. In this study Fas expression was examined in cells of patients with lung diseases in which changes in the lung immunology were documented. We have performed bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) in 24 patients with sarcoidosis (8), lung fibrosis (9), primary lung cancer (7), and we compared expression of Fas in BALF cells from all groups and healthy volunteers (6). Fas protein was detected by immunocytochemistry using APAAP technique with an LSAB 2 kit (Dako). Positive reactions for Fas were found in the cytoplasm of epithelial cells, macrophages, neutrophils and lymphocytes (according to the intensity). There were some differences in proportion of positive cells and intensity of reaction between patients with interstitial lung diseases, healthy volunteers as well as patients with lung cancer. Higher expression of Fas in alveolar macrophages was observed in patients with sarcoidosis, lower in patients with lung cancer, lung fibrosis and the lowest in healthy persons. The analysis of Fas antigen expression in the BALF cells may be useful in evaluation of the role of apoptosis in lung homeostasis and pathology. 相似文献

Luminol-enhanced chemiluminescence was measured in fresh whole human blood, or human neutrophils isolated from heparinized blood, human alveolar macrophages and rat alveolar macrophages stimulated with bacterial endotoxin (LPS). Tetraacetate esters of rooperol, a dicatechol showing anticytokine activity, added to cells simultaneously with LPS inhibited the respiratory burst. The effective concentrations of rooperol were in the range of 1-10 muM depending on cell type and corresponded well with inhibition of nitric oxide production by rat alveolar macrophages. Thus rooperol may reduce some effects of excessive phagocytic activity and inflammatory reaction but by quenching free radicals production may also diminish the resistance to bacterial infections. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the prevalence of reactive type II pneumocytes (RPII) in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid samples obtained from patients with various pulmonary disorders. STUDY DESIGN: Consecutive BAL fluid samples were screened for the presence of RPII on May-Grünwald-Giemsa-stained cytocentrifuge preparations. BAL fluid samples with and without RPII were compared with regard to prevalence, associated clinical diagnoses and cytologic findings. RESULTS: RPII were generally large cells with a high nuclear:cytoplasmic ratio and deeply blue-stained, vacuolated cytoplasm. Most RPII occurred in cohesive cell groups, and the vacuoles tended to be confluent. Cytologic findings associated with RPII were foamy alveolar macrophages, activated lymphocytes and plasma cells. RPII were present in 94 (21.7%) of 433 included BAL fluid samples. The highest prevalences were noted in patients with systemic inflammatory response syndrome and alveolar hemorrhage. In addition, RPII tended to occur more frequently in ventilator-associated pneumonia, Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia, extrinsic allergic alveolitis and drug-induced pulmonary disorders. In contrast, RPII were not observed in BAL fluid samples obtained from patients with sarcoidosis. CONCLUSION: RPII were prevalent in about 20% of BAL fluid specimens. They were associated mainly with conditions of acute lung injury and not observed in sarcoidosis. 相似文献

Cells obtained by bronchoalveolar lavage from patients with chronic nonspecific pulmonary inflammatory diseases were studied using light and electron microscopy and radioautography. Five morphological forms of alveolar macrophages, distinct in their structure and 3H-uridine content were described. A higher level of RNA synthesis has been revealed in alveolar macrophage forms 2 and 3 than in forms 1, 4 and 5; with it being lower in polymorphonuclear leukocytes and lymphocytes. It was shown that changes in the number of lavage cells and the structure-to-function characteristics in each cellular population depended on the phase of the inflammatory process. It was postulated that structural and metabolic heterogeneity of alveolar macrophages reflected the successive stages of cellular development from cell-precursors (through activation of protein synthesis) to cells with complete lysosomal cycle and the following phagocytosis. 相似文献
