Description
Summary:Patients suffering from sepsis-induced acute lung injury (ALI) exhibit a high mortality rate, and their prognosis is closely associated with infiltration of neutrophils into the lungs. In this study, we found a significant elevation of CD64 neutrophils, which highly expressed p75 neurotrophin receptor (p75 ) in peripheral blood of mice and patients with sepsis-induced ALI. p75 CD64 neutrophils were also abundantly expressed in the lung of ALI mice induced by lipopolysaccharide. Conditional knock-out of the myeloid lineage's p75 gene improved the survival rates, attenuated lung tissue inflammation, reduced neutrophil infiltration and enhanced the phagocytic functions of CD64 neutrophils. In vitro, p75 CD64 neutrophils exhibited an upregulation and compromised phagocytic activity in blood samples of ALI patients. Blocking p75 activity by soluble p75 extracellular domain peptide (p75 -Fc) boosted CD64 neutrophils phagocytic activity and reduced inflammatory cytokine production via regulation of the NF-κB activity. The findings strongly indicate that p75 CD64 neutrophils are a novel pathogenic neutrophil subpopulation promoting sepsis-induced ALI.
