GM-CSF and the impaired pulmonary innate immune response following hyperoxic stress.
We have previously demonstrated that mice exposed to sublethal hyperoxia (an atmosphere of >95% oxygen for 4 days, followed by return to room air) have significantly impaired pulmonary innate immune response. Alveolar macrophages (AM) from hyperoxia-exposed mice exhibit significantly diminished antimicrobial activity and markedly reduced production of inflammatory cytokines in response to stimu...
متن کاملPneumocystis pneumonia increases the susceptibility of mice to sublethal hyperoxia.
Patients with Pneumocystis pneumonia often develop respiratory failure after entry into medical care, and one mechanism for this deterioration may be increased alveolar epithelial cell injury. In vitro, we previously demonstrated that Pneumocystis is not cytotoxic for alveolar epithelial cells. In vivo, however, infection with Pneumocystis could increase susceptibility to injury by stressors th...
متن کاملCorrection: Disruption of Nrf2 Impairs the Resolution of Hyperoxia-Induced Acute Lung Injury and Inflammation in Mice.
Aberrant tissue repair and persistent inflammation following oxidant-mediated acute lung injury (ALI) can lead to the development and progression of various pulmonary diseases, but the mechanisms underlying these processes remain unclear. Hyperoxia is widely used in the treatment of pulmonary diseases, but the effects of this oxidant exposure in patients undergoing recovery from ALI are not cle...
متن کاملSP-D-deficient mice are resistant to hyperoxia.
Surfactant protein D (SP-D), a member of the collectin superfamily, modulates pulmonary inflammatory responses and innate immunity. Disruption of the SP-D gene in mice induces peribronchiolar inflammation, accumulation of large, foamy macrophages, increased bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) phospholipid, and pulmonary emphysema. We hypothesized that absence of SP-D aggravates hyperoxia-induced injur...
متن کاملGenome-wide computational prediction of miRNAs in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) revealed target genes involved in pulmonary vasculature and antiviral innate immunity
The current outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2)in China threatened humankind worldwide. The coronaviruses contains the largest RNA genome among all other known RNA viruses, therefore the disease etiology can be understood by analyzing the genome sequence of SARS-CoV-2. In this study, we used an ab-intio based computational tool VMir to scan the complete geno...
