Alveolar Macrophage Activation by Myeloperoxidase

Abstract: Inflammation of the lung is characterized by the influx of increased numbers of various leukocytes including polymorphonuclear leukocyte (PMN) neutrophils. In addition to cells, numerous studies have pointed to the role of tumor necrosis factor-alpha in the inflammatory process. This study addresses a previously unrecognized interaction between neutrophil-derived myeloperoxidase (MPO) and resident alveolar macrophages (AMø). Rat AMø exposed to either enzymatically active recombinant MPO or enzymatically inacti… Show more

“…MPO enhances mRNA expression of IL-1 α , IL-1 β , and TNF- α (19) and may play key roles in acute lung injury, resulting in respiratory dys-function (13). In addition, reactive oxygen intermediates produced from these cells have been shown to stimulate the production of inflammatory cytokines (19). Our study shows that NS1 and H 2 O 2 -MPO stimulate chemokine production associated with inflammatory responses.…”

“…Furthermore, MPO activity increases in the plasma of patients with influenza virus infection (13). Neutrophil-derived MPO in the inflammation of lung infected with influenza virus causes pulmonary pathology, in which recruitment and activation of neutrophils are associated with oxidative tissue damage (19). …”

“…Both forms of MPO increased macrophage respiratory burst, intracellular killing of Candida albicans and TFN-α production [75]. MPO also induced the production of IL-1α and IL-1β message in the alveolar macrophages [75]. These data demonstrate that MPO could directly induce the production of proinflammatory cytokines by alveolar macrophages in the lung.…”

“…It is not clear why MPO-deficiency differentially alters responsiveness to TLR ligands in lung injury, but it could be due to either direct or indirect stimulation of different cells types that produce the cytokines. This was addressed using alveolar macrophages from rats stimulated with either active or enzymatically inactive MPO [75]. Both forms of MPO increased macrophage respiratory burst, intracellular killing of Candida albicans and TFN-α production [75].…”
