Blockade of Endogenous TNF-{alpha} Exacerbates Primary and Secondary Pulmonary Histoplasmosis by Differential Mechanisms1

We investigated the mechanisms by which endogenous TNF-{alpha} modulates host defenses during experimental primary and secondary pulmonary infection with Histoplasma capsulatum (Hc). Neutralization of TNF-{alpha} in vivo resulted in increased CFU and 100% mortality in naive and immune mice challenged with Hc intranasally. Levels of IFN-{gamma} and granulocyte macrophage-CSF were elevated in TNF-{alpha}-neutralized naive mice, whereas IL-4, -6, -10 and TGF-ß did not differ from controls. In contrast, in secondary histoplasmosis, significant elevations of IL-4 and -10 were observed in TNF-{alpha}-depleted mice. Alveolar macrophages (M{phi}) did not exert fungistatic activity against Hc after exposure to recombinant murine TNF-{alpha}, recombinant murine IFN-{gamma}, or both. The increase in susceptibility to primary Hc infection was associated with diminished production of reactive nitrogen intermediates by alveolar M{phi} from TNF-{alpha}-depleted mice, whereas production of nitric oxide during secondary histoplasmosis was similar in both groups. Upon secondary challenge, TNF-{alpha}-depleted mice were rescued by concomitant neutralization of IL-4 and IL-10, but not either cytokine alone. Thus, TNF-{alpha} is critical for controlling primary and secondary infection with Hc, and the mechanisms that lead mice to succumb to primary or secondary infection when endogenous TNF-{alpha} is blocked are different.
