“…A study compared HSCT recipients who had infectious pneumonia (n514) to another group with idiopathic pneumonia syndrome or BO (n56). The level of tumour necrosis factor (TNF)-a in the BAL fluid was significantly higher in the latter group [49]. Higher levels of TNF-a were associated with a worse outcome.…”

“…These inflammatory reactions are characterised by an increase in inflammatory cytokines, such as interleukin (IL)-1, IL-6, IL-8, IL-18 and TNF-a [68,69]. In one study [49], 11 patients with pulmonary complications following allogeneic HSCT (six patients had idiopathic pneumonia syndrome and/or BO) who had BAL fluid analysis were compared with 11 healthy volunteers. The HSCT recipients with BO had significantly higher levels of lavage fluid TNF-a and IL-18 compared with the controls.…”

“…[13][14][15]17,21,22,28 In particular, TNF-␣ is increased in the BAL fluid during experimental and clinical IPS. 21, 35 Neutralization of TNF-␣ significantly reduces the severity of lung injury after BMT in mice, 17 and similar therapy in humans has been associated with improvements in pulmonary dysfunction. 7 However, the cellular source and whether donor-or host-derived TNF-␣ is critical in the development of IPS have not been fully examined.…”
