Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been implicated in the regulation
of host responses to microbial Ags. This study characterizes the role
of TLR4 in the innate immune response to intrapulmonary administration
of Haemophilus influenzae in the mouse. Two different
strains of mice efficiently cleared aerosolized H.
influenzae concurrent with a brisk elaboration of IL-1
,
IL-6, TNF-
, macrophage-inflammatory protein (MIP)-1
, and MIP-2 in
bronchoalveolar lavage and a corresponding mobilization of
intrapulmonary neutrophils. Congenic strains of mice deficient in TLR4
demonstrated a substantial delay in clearance of H.
influenzae with diminished IL-1
, IL-6, TNF-
, MIP-1
,
and MIP-2 in bronchoalveolar lavage and a notable absence of
intrapulmonary neutrophils. In TLR4-expressing animals, but not
TLR4-deficient animals, TNF-
and MIP-1
expression was
up-regulated in epithelial cells of the conducting airway in response
to H. influenzae which was preceded by an apparent
activation of the NF-
B pathway in these cells based on the findings
of decreased overall I
B and an increase in its phosphorylated form.
This study demonstrates a critical role of TLR4 in mediating an
effective innate immune response to H. influenzae in the
lung. This suggests that the airway epithelia might contribute to
sensing of H. influenzae infection and signaling the
innate immune response.
