• W2424182958 abstract "Since 1973, the occurrence of respiratory tract infections due to P. aeruginosa has increased associated with the development of broad-spectrum penicillins. A clinical entity, diffuse panbronchiolitis (DPB) is a representative disease of chronic P. aeruginosa infections in Japan. In this paper, recent advances of research on pathogenesis and treatments of chronic P. aeruginosa lower respiratory tract infections in our department are reported. We examined sputum from patients with chronic P. aeruginosa infections under the electron microscope. Mucoid type of microcolonies were observed with fibrous matrix of exopolysaccharide. Neutrophils were found to be partially surrounding the microcolony in an attempt to defense. Debris was formed mainly by the destruction of the neutrophils. Most neutrophils were found full of phagocytized debris. These data support that instead of phagocytizing bacteria, neutrophils phagocytized debris and bacteria were not completely eradicated. This might be a factor in the pathogenesis of persistent colonization of P. aeruginosa. In the airways of patients with chronic airway diseases (CAD), neutrophils enhance the recruitment of more neutrophils through the production of neutrophil chemotactic factors such as interleukin-8 (IL-8) and LTB4, perpetuating a cycle of inflammation in the lung. We demonstrated increased levels of IL-8, a chemotactic cytokine, in bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid from patients with CAD associated with P. aeruginosa infections. We also documented a significant correlation between neutrophil numbers and IL-8 levels or IL-1 beta levels or neutrophil elastase levels in BAL fluids from patients with CAD. By immunohistochemical studies and in vitro data, three major sources of IL-8 in the airways of CAD patients were found to be alveolar macrophages, bronchial epithelial cells, and migrated neutrophils. In Japan, the clinical effectiveness of oral erythromycin (EM) for CAD, including DPB seems to be established, but its pharmacological mechanism remains unclear. In addition, we found a marked decrease of IL-8 levels in BAL fluid from two patients with CAD after treatment with EM. Therefore, we postulated that EM inhibited IL-8 production by stimulated respiratory cells. EM and Roxythromycin, suppressed IL-8 production in Pseudomonas-stimulated neutrophils in a dose-dependent manner. 1 alpha, 25-dihydroxy vitamin D3 also inhibited neutrophil-derived IL-8. Our data encourage the development of new anti-IL-8 agents against persistent P. aeruginosa lower respiratory tract infections." @default.
