Popis: | Systemic exposure to LPS initiates a complex sequence of events resulting in organ-specific leukocyte recruitment and end-organ injury. We hypothesized that macrophage inflammatory protein-1 alpha (MIP-1 alpha), a C-C chemokine with leukocyte chemotactic and activating properties, may play an important role in lung inflammatory cell recruitment, subsequent lung injury, and mortality in endotoxemia. CD-1 mice were challenged with LPS (200 micrograms), resulting in a maximal 3.5-fold increase in neutrophils (polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs)) at 6 h post-LPS, and a 2.6-fold increase in numbers of macrophages (M phi) within lung minces at 24 h. A time-dependent increase in MIP-1 alpha mRNA and protein was detected in lung after LPS treatment, with immunolocalization of MIP-1 alpha to blood and lung M phi, and the subendothelium. The pretreatment of mice with rabbit anti-MIP-1 alpha Ab resulted in a decrease in the influx of PMNs at 6 h, and influx of M phi at 24 h post-LPS challenge, an approximately 65% reduction in LPS-induced lung permeability to Evans blue, and a modest decrease in mortality at 24, but not 48 h post-LPS. Furthermore, passive immunization of mice with anti-MIP-1 alpha serum resulted in a 35% reduction in ICAM-1 mRNA levels within lung homogenates post-LPS. Finally, the pretreatment of animals with sTNFR:Fc (soluble TNF receptor:Ig construct) resulted in a 60% reduction in LPS-induced MIP-1 alpha mRNA expression within lung homogenates at 4 h post-LPS. Our studies indicate that MIP-1 alpha plays an integral role as a mediator of both PMN and M phi recruitment in murine endotoxemia. |
