Elevated chemokine responses are maintained in lungs after clearance of viral infection.

چکیده
We observed two patterns of chemokine expression in the lungs of mice infected with murine gammaherpesvirus 68: peaks of chemokine expression correlated with or occurred after the peak of viral gene expression. Chemokine expression remained elevated through 29 days postinfection.

Critical role of serpinB1 in regulating inflammatory responses in pulmonary influenza infection.
BACKGROUND Excessive inflammatory host response increases morbidity and mortality associated with seasonal respiratory influenza, and highly pathogenic virus strains are characterized by massive infiltration of monocytes and/or macrophages that produce a storm of injurious cytokines. METHODS Here, we examined the role in respiratory influenza of serpinB1, an endogenous inhibitor of the serine...
متن کاملMouse strain differences in the chemokine response to acute lung infection with a murine gammaherpesvirus.
Numerous mouse strain-based differences in the immune response and in susceptibility to numerous pathogens have been described, but it is not known if these differences extend to chemokine responses to viral infection of the lungs. To define mouse strain-based differences in the host chemokine response and susceptibility to infection with murine gammaherpesvirus-68 (MHV-68), we compared the ind...
متن کاملNon-invasive Imaging of Sendai Virus Infection in Pharmacologically Immunocompromised Mice: NK and T Cells, but not Neutrophils, Promote Viral Clearance after Therapy with Cyclophosphamide and Dexamethasone
In immunocompromised patients, parainfluenza virus (PIV) infections have an increased potential to spread to the lower respiratory tract (LRT), resulting in increased morbidity and mortality. Understanding the immunologic defects that facilitate viral spread to the LRT will help in developing better management protocols. In this study, we immunosuppressed mice with dexamethasone and/or cyclopho...
متن کاملCLEC5A-Mediated Enhancement of the Inflammatory Response in Myeloid Cells Contributes to Influenza Virus Pathogenicity In Vivo
Human infections with influenza viruses exhibit mild to severe clinical outcomes as a result of complex virus-host interactions. Induction of inflammatory mediators via pattern recognition receptors may dictate subsequent host responses for pathogen clearance and tissue damage. We identified that human C-type lectin domain family 5 member A (CLEC5A) interacts with the hemagglutinin protein of i...
متن کاملCXCL10/CXCR3-mediated responses promote immunity to respiratory syncytial virus infection by augmenting dendritic cell and CD8(+) T cell efficacy.
The induction of inflammatory cytokines during respiratory viral infections contributes to both disease pathogenesis and resolution. The present studies investigated the role of the chemokine CXCL10 and its specific receptor, CXCR3, in the host response to pulmonary respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. Antibody-mediated neutralization of CXCL10 resulted in a significant increase in dise...
