Systemic Administration of Endotoxin Induces Bronchopulmonary Hyperreactivity Dissociated from TNF-{alpha} Formation and Neutrophil Sequestration into the Murine Lungs1

Bronchopulmonary hyperreactivity (BHR), an increased responsiveness to nonspecific bronchoconstrictor agents, is a well-known characteristic of bronchial asthma. It has been recently suggested that the severity of this disease is related to the endotoxin content of house dust. In the present report, it is shown that the i.p. administration of bacterial LPS to mice is followed by a marked early dose-dependent BHR in response to methacholine. The microscopic examination showed no ultrastructural lesions of the lungs or of the airways, but a marked neutrophil accumulation in the capillaries, as confirmed by an increase of the lung content in the neutrophil enzyme marker myeloperoxidase. In parallel, high levels of TNF-{alpha} were found in plasma as well as its transcripts in the lung tissues. Using immunologic (anti-TNF-{alpha} and anti-granulocyte Abs), and pharmacologic (dexamethasone and vinblastine) tools, it is demonstrated that BHR is apparently neither related to the presence of neutrophils in the pulmonary microvasculature nor to the synthesis of TNF-{alpha}.
