Recently, a Sendai virus (SeV) model of chronic obstructive lung disease has demonstrated an innate immune response in mouse airways that exhibits similarities to the chronic airway inflammation in human chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, but the effect on distal lung parenchyma has not been investigated. The aim of our study is to image the time course and regional distribution of mouse lung microstructural changes in vivo after SeV infection. (1)H and (3)He diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were successfully performed on five groups of C57BL/6J mice. (1)H MR images provided precise anatomical localization and lung volume measurements. (3)He lung morphometry was implemented to image and quantify mouse lung geometric microstructural parameters at different time points after SeV infection. (1)H MR images detected the SeV-induced pulmonary inflammation in vivo; spatially resolved maps of acinar airway radius R, alveolar depth h, and mean linear intercept Lm were generated from (3)He diffusion images. The morphometric parameters R and Lm in the infected group were indistinguishable from PBS-treated mice at day 21, increased slightly at day 49, and were increased with statistical significance at day 77 (p = 0.02). Increases in R and Lm of infected mice imply that there is a modest increase in alveolar duct radius distal to airway inflammation, particularly in the lung periphery, indicating airspace enlargement after virus infection. Our results indicate that (3)He lung morphometry has good sensitivity in quantifying small microstructural changes in the mouse lung and that the Sendai mouse model has the potential to be a valid murine model of COPD. 相似文献

We measured changes with growth in lung function and airway reactivity after acute canine parainfluenza virus type 2 (CPI2, n = 5), canine adenovirus type 2 (CAV2, n = 7), and sequential CAV2-CPI2 (n = 6) infections or no infection (controls, n = 6) in beagle puppies (age approximately 79 days). In the CPI2 and CAV2 groups, a lower respiratory illness developed by day 3 postinfection with clinical recovery by day 14. In the CAV2-CPI2 group, puppies were inoculated initially with CAV2 and 12 days later with CPI2. In this group, illness persisted until day 14 after infection with CPI2. Lung resistance (RL), dynamic (Cdyn) and static (Cst) lung compliance, functional residual capacity (FRC), and responsiveness to aerosolized histamine were measured before infection and at periodic intervals until 239 +/- 43 days of age. Lung function data were analyzed using a longitudinal random effects model. In all groups, FRC, Cst, and Cdyn increased with age. In all infected groups, the regression slopes for Cdyn were steeper than in controls. RL decreased linearly with age without group slope differences. Histamine reactivity increased with age, but there were no differences in slope among groups. Lung pathological studies showed areas of obliterative bronchiolitis and chronic small airways inflammation particularly in the CAV2 and CAV2-CPI2 groups. Thus, viral bronchiolitis produces chronic small airways inflammation in beagle puppies and alters the changes in lung function occurring with growth. Histamine reactivity increases with age and is not modified by viral infection. 相似文献

In order to maintain the gas exchange function of the lung following influenza virus infection, a delicate orchestration of positive and negative regulatory pathways must be maintained to attain viral eradication while minimizing local inflammation. The programmed death receptor 1 ligand/programmed death receptor 1 (PDL-1/PD-1) pathway plays an important immunoregulatory role, particularly in the context of T cell function. Here, we have shown that influenza virus infection of primary airway epithelial cells strongly enhances PDL-1 expression and does so in an alpha interferon receptor (IFNAR) signaling-dependent manner. PD-1 is expressed primarily on effector T cells in the lung, compared to effector memory and central memory cells, and shortly after influenza virus infection, an increased number of PD-1+ T cells are recruited to the airways. Using in vitro cocultures of airway epithelial cells and T cells and in vivo models of influenza virus infection, we have demonstrated that blockade of airway epithelial PDL-1 improves CD8 T cell function, defined by increased production of gamma interferon (IFN-γ) and granzyme B and expression of CD107ab. Furthermore, PDL-1 blockade in the airways served to accelerate influenza virus clearance and enhance infection recovery. Our findings suggest that local manipulation of the PDL-1/PD-1 axis in the airways may represent a therapeutic alternative during acute influenza virus infection. 相似文献

Viral respiratory infection increases susceptibility of young rats to hypoxia-induced pulmonary edema 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Recentclinical observations of a high incidence of preexisting respiratoryinfections in pediatric cases of high-altitude pulmonary edema promptedus to ask whether such infections would increase the susceptibility tohypoxia-induced pulmonary edema in young rats. We infected weanlingrats with Sendai virus, thus causing a mild respiratory infection.Within 7 days of infection, Sendai virus was essentially undetectableby using viral culture and immunohistochemical techniques. Animals atday 7 of Sendai virus infection werethen exposed to normobaric hypoxia (fraction of inspiredO2 = 0.1) for 24 h and examinedfor increases in gravimetric lung water and in vascular permeability,as well as for histological evidence of increased lung water.Bronchoalveolar lavage was performed on a separate series of animals.Compared with control groups, infected hypoxic animals showedsignificant increases in perivascular cuffing, gravimetric lung water,and lung protein leak. In addition, infected hypoxic animals hadincreases in lavage fluid cell counts and protein content compared withcontrols. We conclude that young rats, exposed to moderate hypoxiawhile recovering from a mild viral respiratory infection, maydemonstrate evidence of early pulmonary edema formation, a finding ofpotential relevance to human high-altitude pulmonary edema. 相似文献

Previous studies have shown that long-lived memory CD8(+) T cells persist in the lung airways following the resolution of a murine Sendai virus infection. These cells are CD11a(low), noncytolytic, and do not proliferate in the lung airways raising the possibility that they are "end stage" or terminally differentiated memory cells. In this current report, we investigated the functional characteristics of these cells by analyzing their capacity to respond to secondary viral infection outside of the lung environment. We show that, after transfer into the bloodstream, CD11a(low) memory T cells from the lung airways can return to the secondary lymphoid tissue and respond to a secondary viral challenge. Furthermore, these cells re-express CD11a, which may contribute to their migratory and proliferative capacity. These data demonstrate that lung airway memory CD8(+) T cells are not terminally differentiated cells and retain the capacity to mediate recall responses to infection. 相似文献

Virus induces airway hyperresponsiveness to tachykinins: role of neutral endopeptidase 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10

We examined the effects of viral respiratory infection by Sendai virus on airway responsiveness to tachykinins in guinea pigs. We measured the change in total pulmonary resistance induced by substance P or capsaicin in the presence or absence of the neutral endopeptidase inhibitor, phosphoramidon, in infected and in noninfected animals. In the absence of phosphoramidon, the bronchoconstrictor responses to substance P and to capsaicin were greater in infected than in noninfected animals. Phosphoramidon did not further potentiate the responses to substance P and to capsaicin in the infected animals, whereas it did so in noninfected animals. Studies performed in vitro showed that nonadrenergic noncholinergic bronchial smooth muscle responses to electrical field stimulation were also increased in tissues from infected animals and that phosphoramidon increased the response of tissues from noninfected animals greatly but increased the responses of tissues from infected animals only slightly. Responses to acetylcholine were unaffected by viral infection. Neutral endopeptidase activity was decreased by 40% in the tracheal epithelial layer of the infected animals. We suggest that respiratory infection by Sendai virus causes enhanced airway responsiveness to tachykinins by decreasing neutral endopeptidase-like activity in the airway epithelium. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection in early life is suspected to play a role in the development of post-bronchiolitis wheezing and asthma. Reinfection is common at all ages, but factors that determine the development of altered airway function after reinfection are not well understood. This study was conducted in a mouse model to define the role of age in determining the consequences on airway function after reinfection. Mice were infected shortly after birth or at weaning and were reinfected 5 wk later, followed by assessment of airway function, airway inflammation, and lung histopathology. Infection of mice at weaning elicited a protective airway response upon reinfection. In this age group, reinfection resulted in increased airway inflammation, but without development of airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) or eosinophilia and decreased IL-13 levels. By contrast, neonatal infection failed to protect the airways and resulted in enhanced AHR after reinfection. This secondary response was associated with the development of airway eosinophilia, increased IL-13 levels, and mucus hyperproduction. Both CD4- and CD8-positive T cells were a source of IL-13 in the lung, and inhibition of IL-13 abolished AHR and mucus production in these mice. Inoculation of UV-inactivated virus failed to elicit these divergent responses to reinfection, emphasizing the requirement for active lung infection during initial exposure. Thus, neonatal RSV infection predisposes to the development of airway eosinophilia and enhanced AHR via an IL-13-dependent mechanism during reinfection, whereas infection at a later age protects against the development of these altered airway responses after reinfection. 相似文献

Viral respiratory infections can cause bronchial hyperresponsiveness and exacerbate asthma. In mice, respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection results in airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and eosinophil influx into the airways. The immune cell requirements for these responses to RSV infection are not well defined. To delineate the role of CD8 T cells in the development of RSV-induced AHR and lung eosinophilia, we tested the ability of mice depleted of CD8 T cells to develop these symptoms of RSV infection. BALB/c mice were depleted of CD8 T cells using anti-CD8 Ab treatment before intranasal administration of infectious RSV. Six days postinfection, airway responsiveness to inhaled methacholine was assessed by barometric body plethysmography, and numbers of lung eosinophils and levels of IFN-gamma, IL-4, and IL-5 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid were monitored. RSV infection resulted in airway eosinophilia and AHR in control mice, but not in CD8-depleted animals. Further, whereas RSV-infected mice secreted increased amounts of IL-5 into the airways as compared with noninfected controls, no IL-5 was detectable in both bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and culture supernatants from CD8-depleted animals. Treatment of CD8-depleted mice with IL-5 fully restored both lung eosinophilia and AHR. We conclude that CD8 T cells are essential for the influx of eosinophils into the lung and the development of AHR in response to RSV infection. 相似文献

The goal of this research was to determine whether differential pulmonary IL-12 gene expression controls susceptibility to Sendai virus-induced chronic airway inflammation and fibrosis in inbred rat strains. Sendai virus-resistant F344 rats and susceptible BN rats were studied from 1 to 14 days following virus inoculation. F344 rats had 3.4-fold higher IL-12 mRNA levels detected by real-time PCR in lung than BN rats as early as two days following inoculation. This increase in mRNA was associated at two days with increased total IL-12 protein and with a 2-fold increase in numbers of bronchiolar, OX-6-positive dendritic cells and an increased number of IL-12 p40-positive, bronchiolar macrophages and dendritic cells (p<0.05). Virus-susceptible BN rats treated with 3 mug of recombinant, mouse IL-12 intraperitoneally at the time of virus inoculation had a 22.1% decrease in severity of chronic bronchiolar inflammation and a 23.8% decrease in fibrosis compared to virus-inoculated BN rats treated with saline. IL-12 treatment induced increased IFN-gamma mRNA and protein expression after virus inoculation (p<0.05). The results demonstrate that there is differential pulmonary IL-12 gene expression between virus-susceptible and resistant rat strains and that IL-12 treatment can provide significant protection from virus-induced chronic airway inflammation and remodeling during early life. 相似文献

Nonspecific recruitment of memory CD8+ T cells to the lung airways during respiratory virus infections 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Previous studies have shown that heterologous viral infections have a significant impact on pre-existing memory T cell populations in secondary lymphoid organs through a combination of cross-reactive and bystander effects. However, the impact of heterologous viral infections on effector/memory T cells in peripheral sites is not well understood. In this study, we have analyzed the impact of a heterologous influenza virus infection on Sendai virus-specific CD8(+) effector/memory cells present in the lung airways. The data show a transient increase in the numbers of Sendai virus nucleoprotein 324-332/K(b)-specific CD8(+) memory T cells in the airways of the influenza-infected mice peaking around day 4 postinfection. Intratracheal transfer studies and 5-bromo-2'-deoxyuridine incorporation demonstrate that this increase is due to the recruitment of resting memory cells into the airways. In addition, the data show that these immigrating memory cells are phenotypically distinct from the resident memory T cells of the lung airways. A similar influx of nonproliferating Sendai virus nucleoprotein 324-332/K(b)-specific CD8(+) memory T cells is also induced by a secondary (homologous) infection with Sendai virus. Together, these data suggest that inflammation can accelerate memory T cell migration to nonlymphoid tissues and is a part of the normal recall response during respiratory infections. 相似文献

Rat and monkey are species that are used in models of human airway hyperresponsiveness. However, the wall structures of rat and monkey airways are different from each other, with that of the monkey more closely resembling that of humans. We hypothesized that differences in wall structure would explain differences in airway responsiveness. Using videomicrometry, we measured airway luminal area in lung slices to compare proximal and distal airway responsiveness to methacholine in the rat and monkey. The airway type was then histologically identified. Proximal airways of the young rat and monkey were equally responsive to methacholine. In contrast, respiratory bronchioles of monkeys were less responsive than were their proximal bronchi, whereas the distal bronchioles of rats were more responsive than their proximal bronchioles. Both proximal and distal airways of younger monkeys were more responsive than those of older monkeys. Airway heterogeneity in young monkeys was greatest with regard to degree of airway closure of respiratory bronchioles. We conclude that responsiveness to methacholine varies with airway wall structure and location. 相似文献

Lung compliance is generally considered to represent a blend of surface and tissue forces, and changes in compliance in vivo are commonly used to indicate changes in surface forces. There are, however, theoretical arguments that would allow contraction of airway smooth muscle to affect substantially the elasticity of the lung. In the present study we evaluated the role of conducting airway contraction on lung compliance in vivo by infusing methacholine (MCh) at a constant rate into the bronchial circulation. With a steady-state MCh infusion of 2.4 micrograms/min into the bronchial perfusate (perfusate concentration = 0.7 microM), there was an approximate doubling of lung resistance and a 50% fall in dynamic compliance. There were also significant decreases in chord compliance measured from the quasi-static pressure-volume curves and in total lung capacity and residual volume. When the same infusion rate was administered into the pulmonary artery, no changes in lung mechanics were observed. These results indicate that the conducting airways may have a major role in regulating lung elasticity. This linkage between airway contraction and lung compliance may account for the common observation that pharmacological challenges given to the lung usually result in similar changes in lung compliance and airway conductance. Our results also suggest the possibility that the lung tissue resistance, which dominates the measurement of lung resistance in many species, might in fact reflect the physical properties of conducting airways. 相似文献

Active, nonanesthetized, tracheotomized rabbits were subjected to continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) for 4 days to determine the effects of chronic mechanical strain on lung and airway function. Rabbits were maintained for 4 days at a CPAP of 6 cmH(2)O (high CPAP), at a CPAP of 0 cmH(2)O (low CPAP), or without tracheostomy (no CPAP). After treatment with CPAP, changes in respiratory resistance in response to increasing concentrations of inhaled ACh were measured during mechanical ventilation to evaluate respiratory system responsiveness in vivo. Intraparenchymal bronchial segments were isolated from the lungs of all animals to evaluate airway smooth muscle responsiveness and bronchial compliance in vitro. Rabbits maintained for 4 days at high CPAP demonstrated significantly lower responsiveness to ACh compared with rabbits that were maintained at low CPAP or with no CPAP. Airways isolated from the lungs of animals subjected to the chronic application of high CPAP were also less responsive to ACh in vitro than the airways isolated from animals subjected to low CPAP or no CPAP. The persistence of the decreased responsiveness in the excised airway tissues suggests that the decreased respiratory system responsiveness observed in vivo results primarily from direct effects on the airways. The results demonstrate that the application of prolonged mechanical strain in vivo can reduce airway reactivity. 相似文献

Neonates and infants presenting with pulmonary hypertension and chronic hypoxia often exhibit airway obstruction. To investigate this association, we utilized a system in which neonatal calves are exposed to chronic hypobaric hypoxia and develop severe pulmonary hypertension. For the present study, one of each pair of six age-matched pairs of neonatal calves was continuously exposed to hypobaric hypoxia at 4,500 m (CH); the other remained at 1,500 m. At 2 wk of age, mean pulmonary arterial pressure (MPAP), dynamic lung compliance (Cdyn), resistance (RL), and static respiratory system compliance (Crs) were measured at 4,500 m in both CH and control calves exposed acutely to hypoxia (C). These measurements were repeated after cumulative administrations of nebulized methacholine (MCh). Tissues were removed for histological examination and assessment of bronchial ring contractility to MCh and KCl. After 2 wk of hypobaric hypoxia, MPAP (C 35 +/- 1.7 vs. CH 120 +/- 7 mmHg, P less than 0.001) and RL (C 2.64 +/- 0.16 vs CH 4.99 +/- 0.47 cmH2O.l-1s, P less than 0.001) increased. Cdyn (C 0.100 +/- 0.01 vs. CH 0.082 +/- 0.007 l/cmH2O) and Crs (CH 0.46 +/- 0.003 vs. C 0.59 +/- 0.009 l/cmH2O) were not significantly different. Compared with airways of C calves, airways of CH animals did not exhibit in vivo or in vitro MCh hyperresponsiveness; however, in vitro contractility to KCl of airways from CH animals was significantly increased. Histologically, airways from the CH calves showed increases in airway fibrous tissue and smooth muscle.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Ponies with recurrent airway obstruction have hyperresponsive airways during acute disease exacerbations but not during clinical remission. We examined the effect of beta-adrenergic blockade with propranolol on airway responsiveness to aerosol histamine in six ponies with recurrent airway obstruction and six age- and gender-matched controls. Measurements were made with principal ponies in clinical remission (period A) and during an acute period of airway obstruction (period B). beta-Adrenergic blockade did not change airway responsiveness, dynamic compliance (Cdyn), or pulmonary resistance (RL) in either group of ponies at period A or in the control ponies at period B. In principal ponies at period B, propranolol significantly increased RL but was without effect on Cdyn or airway responsiveness. We conclude that the beta-adrenergic system is involved in the control of central airway caliber in principal ponies at period B but that this system does not seem to be involved in the mechanism of airway hyperresponsiveness to histamine. 相似文献

Airway mucus hypersecretion occurs in response to infection and irritation and poses an important and poorly understood clinical problem. In order to gain insight into its pathogenesis, we have focused on an mRNA encoding the major mucus glycoprotein, mucin. Northern blots showed that mucin mRNA was abundant in the intestine of specific pathogen free rats whereas it was undetectable in the airways of these rats until pathogen-free conditions were suspended and rats acquired Sendai (Parainfluenza I) virus infections. Airway mucin hybridization signals in rats that were both infected with Sendai virus and exposed to SO2 were more intense than those in rats with infection alone. These results suggest that pathogen-and irritant-induced hypersecretion may be partly controlled at the level of mucin mRNA. 相似文献

Rhinovirus (RV), a single-stranded RNA picornavirus, is the most frequent cause of asthma exacerbations. We previously demonstrated in human bronchial epithelial cells that melanoma differentiation-associated gene (MDA)-5 and the adaptor protein for Toll-like receptor (TLR)-3 are each required for maximal RV1B-induced interferon (IFN) responses. However, in vivo, the overall airway response to viral infection likely represents a coordinated response integrating both antiviral and pro-inflammatory pathways. We examined the airway responses of MDA5- and TLR3-deficient mice to infection with RV1B, a minor group virus which replicates in mouse lungs. MDA5 null mice showed a delayed type I IFN and attenuated type III IFN response to RV1B infection, leading to a transient increase in viral titer. TLR3 null mice showed normal IFN responses and unchanged viral titers. Further, RV-infected MDA5 and TLR3 null mice showed reduced lung inflammatory responses and reduced airways responsiveness. Finally, RV-infected MDA5 null mice with allergic airways disease showed lower viral titers despite deficient IFN responses, and allergic MDA5 and TLR3 null mice each showed decreased RV-induced airway inflammatory and contractile responses. These results suggest that, in the context of RV infection, binding of viral dsRNA to MDA5 and TLR3 initiates pro-inflammatory signaling pathways leading to airways inflammation and hyperresponsiveness. 相似文献

Weanling F344 and BN rats differ markedly in their susceptibility to Sendai virus-induced airway injury. Early gene expression that controls their differences in susceptibility remains poorly understood. In this study we combined suppressive subtractive hybridization and cDNA library array hybridization to identify genes differentially expressed in virus-susceptible BN and virus-resistant F344 rats during the first 3 days after inoculation. Differential expression of selected clones was further verified by quantitative RT-PCR. Seven virus-induced gene segments were identified. Of them, interferon-gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10), Mx1, and guanylate-binding protein-2 mRNA abundance in infected F344 rats was 201.5, 188.2, and 281.7% higher, respectively, than that of infected BN rats at 2 days after inoculation. In situ hybridization indicated that virus-induced IP-10 was expressed mainly in airway epithelial cells of F344 rats. Sendai virus infection can directly induce IP-10 expression in rat tracheal epithelial cells in vitro. IP-10 early high expression might contribute to the resistance to virus-induced airway disease in F344 rats by promoting Th1 responses and increasing antiviral activity. 相似文献
