Interleukin-22 reduces lung inflammation during influenza A virus infection and protects against secondary bacterial infection.
Interleukin-22 (IL-22) has redundant, protective, or pathogenic functions during autoimmune, inflammatory, and infectious diseases. Here, we addressed the potential role of IL-22 in host defense and pathogenesis during lethal and sublethal respiratory H3N2 influenza A virus (IAV) infection. We show that IL-22, as well as factors associated with its production, are expressed in the lung tissue d...
متن کاملZileuton reduces respiratory illness and lung inflammation, during respiratory syncytial virus infection, in mice.
To determine the role of leukotrienes in a mouse model of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection, we correlated the quantity of leukotrienes in lung lavage fluids of infected mice with respiratory rates and measures of outflow obstruction and then determined the effects of the leukotriene inhibitor zileuton on clinical features and lung function. Concentrations of leukotrienes were correla...
متن کاملInfluenza virus-specific antibody-secreting cells in the murine lung during primary influenza virus infection.
An enzyme-linked immunosorbent plaque assay is described which can reliably enumerate influenza virus-specific antibody-secreting cells and exhibits specificity similar to that of the indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The assay was used to characterize the development of specific antibody-secreting cells, principally within lung tissue, during primary murine influenza virus infection ...
متن کاملImmunosuppression during influenza virus infection.
The effects of a live attenuated influenza vaccine and subsequent challenge with virulent influenza virus on the delayed hypersensitivity skin test, and the in vitro response of lymphocytes were evaluated. Volunteers were skin tested before and after administration of vaccine or placebo and challenge with PPD (a purified protein derivative of Mycobacterium tuberculosis), candida, mumps, and tri...
متن کاملCutting Edge: DNA in the Lung Microenvironment during Influenza Virus Infection Tempers Inflammation by Engaging the DNA Sensor AIM2.
Innate sensing of nucleic acids lies at the heart of antiviral immunity. During viral infection, dying cells may also release nucleic acids into the tissue microenvironment. It is unknown what effect such host signals have on the quality or duration of the immune response to viruses. In this study, we uncovered an immune-regulatory pathway that tempers the intensity of the host response to infl...
