Prokaryotic RNA Associated to Bacterial Viability Induces Polymorphonuclear Neutrophil Activation
Polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) are the first cellular line of antibacterial host defense. They sense pathogens through recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) by innate pattern recognition receptors, such as Toll-like receptors (TLR). The aim of this study was to investigate whether PMN sense bacterial viability and explore which viability factor could be involved in ...
متن کاملActivation of endothelial TLR2 by bacterial lipoprotein upregulates proteins specific for the neutrophil response.
The vascular endothelium is integrally involved in the host response to infection and in organ failure during acute inflammatory disorders such as sepsis. Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial lipoproteins circulate in sepsis and can directly activate the endothelium by binding to endothelial cell (EC) TLR2. In this report, we perform the most comprehensive analysis to date of the immune-re...
متن کاملDifferential activation of RAGE by HMGB1 modulates neutrophil-associated NADPH oxidase activity and bacterial killing.
The receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE) plays an important role in host defense against bacterial infection. In the present experiments, we investigated the mechanisms by which RAGE contributes to the ability of neutrophils to eradicate bacteria. Wild-type (RAGE(+/+)) neutrophils demonstrated significantly greater ability to kill Escherichia coli compared with RAGE(-/-) neutroph...
متن کاملNeutrophil cell death, activation and bacterial infection in cystic fibrosis.
BACKGROUND Cystic fibrosis (CF) is characterised by chronic endobronchial bacterial infection and neutrophil mediated inflammation. Neutrophil apoptosis is essential for the resolution of inflammation. This study assessed the relationship between levels of neutrophil apoptosis and sputum microbiology in matched clinically stable patients with CF. METHODS Sputum was induced from 34 patients (n...
متن کاملBacterial endocarditis associated with proteinase 3 anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibody
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasm antibodies (ANCA) are useful diagnostic markers in a range of small vessel vasculitides. While non-specific ANCA have been reported in association with a variety of autoimmune, haematological and infectious conditions, the combination of a cytoplasmic staining pattern on indirect immunofluorescence (IIF) of human neutrophils, with antibodies specific for proteinase 3 (...
