Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Azithromycin is a macrolide antibiotic with anti-inflammatory and immunomodulating effects. Long-term azithromycin therapy in patients with chronic lung diseases such as cystic fibrosis has been associated with increased antimicrobial resistance, emergence of hypermutable strains, ototoxicity and cardiac toxicity. The aim of this study was to assess the anti-inflammatory effects of the non-antibiotic azithromycin derivative CSY0073. EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH We compared the effects of CSY0073 with those of azithromycin in experiments on bacterial cultures, Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm, lung cells and mice challenged intranasally with P. aeruginosa LPS. KEY RESULTS In contrast to azithromycin, CSY0073 did not inhibit the growth of P. aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus or Haemophilus influenzae and had no effect on an established P. aeruginosa biofilm. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluids and lung homogenates collected after the LPS challenge in mice showed that CSY0073 and azithromycin (200 mg·kg(-1), i.p.) decreased neutrophil counts at 24 h and TNF-α, CXCL1 and CXCL2 levels in the BAL fluid after 3 h and IL-6, CXCL2 and IL-1β levels in the lung after 3 h compared with the vehicle. However, only azithromycin reduced IL-1β levels in the lung 24 h post LPS challenge. CSY0073 and azithromycin similarly diminished the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by macrophages, but not lung epithelial cells, exposed to P. aeruginosa LPS. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Unlike azithromycin, CSY0073 had no antibacterial effects but it did have a similar anti-inflammatory profile to that of azithromycin. Hence, CSY0073 may have potential as a long-term treatment for patients with chronic lung diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND For years, the analysis of innate responses to the major mold pathogen Aspergillus fumigatus has been restricted to specialized cells, such as professional phagocytes. More recently, the contribution of the airway epithelial barrier has been assessed and studies have shown that it was able to sense and react to the Aspergillus infection, for example, by producing cytokines. METHODS To further explore the reaction of the respiratory epithelium to the fungus, we analyzed the proteome response of a human bronchial epithelial cell line to Aspergillus infection using difference gel electrophoresis. We studied the protein pattern of BEAS-2B cell culture supernatant after interaction of the cells with Aspergillus during a 15-hour coculture. RESULTS We found formerly unknown aspects of bronchial cell behavior during Aspergillus infection: bronchial cells are able to develop both cellular defense mechanisms (ie, thioredoxin system activation) and immune reactions (ie, lysosomal degranulation and cathepsin activation) in response to the fungal aggression. CONCLUSIONS Bronchial epithelial cells appear to be a more important effector of antifungal defense than expected. Degranulation of lysosomal enzymes that might be responsible for both fungal growth inhibition and host cell damage suggests that inductors/inhibitors of these pathways may be potential targets of therapeutic intervention.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is due to mutations in the CF transmembrane conductance regulator gene CFTR. CF is characterised by mucus dehydration, chronic bacterial infection and inflammation, and increased levels of cytosolic phospholipase A2α (cPLA2α) products in airways. We aimed to examine the role of cPLA2α in the modulation of mucus production and inflammation in CFTR-deficient mice and epithelial cells. Mucus production was assessed using histological analyses, immuno-histochemistry and MUC5AC ELISA. cPLA2α activation was measured using an enzymatic assay and lung inflammation determined by histological analyses and polymorphonuclear neutrophil counts in bronchoalveolar lavages. In lungs from Cftr(-/-) mice, lipopolysaccharide induced mucus overproduction and MUC5AC expression associated with an increased cPLA2α activity. Mucus overproduction was mimicked by instillation of the cPLA2α product arachidonic acid, and abolished by either a cPLA2α null mutation or pharmacological inhibition. An increased cPLA2α activity was observed in bronchial explants from CF patients. CFTR silencing induced cPLA2α activation and MUC5AC expression in bronchial human epithelial cells. This expression was enhanced by arachidonic acid and reduced by cPLA2α inhibition. However, inhibition of CFTR chloride transport function had no effect on MUC5AC expression. Reduction of CFTR expression increased cPLA2α activity. This led to an enhanced mucus production in airway epithelia independent of CFTR chloride transport function. cPLA2α represents a suitable new target for therapeutic intervention in CF.

Abstract
Innate immunity is the host's first line of defence against infection. In this review, we present the innate immune response implicated in three examples of pulmonary infection of viral, fungal and bacterial origin. We show that this defence against infection can be a double-edged sword. Thus, the same cells, molecules and mechanisms involved in this protective process can also be involved in deleterious inflammation. A delicate balance between immunity and inflammation is therefore required, making it possible to fight pathogens effectively while limiting inflammation that might be damaging to the host.

Abstract
Upon LPS exposure, mononuclear phagocytes produce TNF-alpha and IL-10, two cytokines with pro- and anti-inflammatory activities, respectively. We previously described that murine resident alveolar macrophages, which play a central role in the immunosurveillance of the lung alveoli, do not synthesize IL-10 in vivo or in vitro when exposed to LPS. In the present report we demonstrate that during lung inflammation induced by the intranasal administration of LPS, bronchoalveolar cells collected between days 3 and 5 are able to synthesize IL-10 when exposed to LPS. We also show that depletion of resident alveolar macrophages by an intratracheal instillation of liposome-encapsulated clodronate is followed by subsequent replenishment of the airspaces by mononuclear phagocytes. This is accompanied by the transient competence of cells for IL-10 production. The cell capacity to produce IL-10 is evident up to 3 days and then decreases. This led us to hypothesize that the alveolar environment contains a down-regulator of LPS-induced IL-10 synthesis by recently emigrating mononuclear phagocytes. We show that the surfactant protein A, an airspace protein that has known immunomodulatory activities, dramatically inhibits LPS-induced IL-10 formation by bone marrow-derived macrophages. These data show a difference between resident and inflammatory macrophages with respect to IL-10 synthesis. Moreover, this study highlights for the first time the inhibitory role of surfactant protein A in the anti-inflammatory activity of macrophages through inhibition of IL-10 production.

Abstract
The intranasal administration of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) to mice triggers a huge influx of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMNs) into the airway spaces, with a peak at 48 h. The increase in protein concentration, an index of microvascular permeability, displayed a different pattern, i.e., a first increase with a plateau between 3 and 24 h followed by a second increase peaking at 72 h. When mice were depleted of circulating PMNs, the increase in protein concentration was inhibited at 3 h but not at 24 h. The lack of PMN involvement at 24 h was confirmed by 1) in situ activation of exudated PMNs present in the air spaces on intranasal administration of LPS and 2) induction of the migration of PMNs sequestered in lung vessels on intraperitoneal administration of LPS. These findings show that the increase in microvascular permeability during lung inflammation is due to at least two distinct mechanisms, an early one related to the neutrophil influx and a delayed one occurring even under neutropenic conditions.

Abstract
Neutrophil elastase (NE) upregulates the fibrinogen binding activity of the platelet integrin alpha(IIb)beta(3) through proteolysis of the alpha(IIb) subunit. This cleavage allows a strong potentiation of platelet aggregation induced by low concentrations of cathepsin G (CG), another neutrophil serine proteinase. During this activation process, we observed a strong fibrinogen binding and aggregation-dependent phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bis-phosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P(2)) accumulation. PtdIns(3,4)P(2) has been suggested to play a role in the stabilization of platelet aggregation, possibly through the control of a maintained alpha(IIb)beta(3) integrin activation. Here we show that inhibition of phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI 3-K) by very low concentrations of wortmannin or LY294002 transformed the irreversible platelet aggregation induced by a combination of NE and low concentrations of CG into a reversible aggregation. However, although inhibition of PI 3-K was very efficient in inducing platelet disaggregation, it did not modify the level of alpha(IIb)beta(3) activation as assessed by binding of an activation-dependent antibody. These results indicate that PI 3-K activity can control the irreversibility of platelet aggregation even under conditions where alpha(IIb)beta(3) integrin remains activated.

Abstract
A major property of monocytes/macrophages is to recognize and to be activated by bacterial wall components such as LPS, through membrane receptors including the key element CD14. We demonstrate that CD14 expression is down-regulated, as judged by flow cytometry analysis, upon incubation of human monocytes with purified cathepsin G (CG), a releasable neutrophil serine proteinase. The progressive decrease of CD14 expression due to increasing concentrations of CG highly correlates (P < 0.0001) with the decreased synthesis of tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) in response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). This effect is dependent on the enzymatic activity of CG but is not exerted through an activation of monocytes. Immunoblot analysis reveals that CD14 (M(r) = 57,000) is directly cleaved by CG and released into the extracellular medium as a high-M(r) species (M(r) = 54,000). In this context, incubation of monocytes with activated neutrophils leads to a down-regulation of CD14 expression, a process blocked by a serine proteinase inhibitor. These data suggest a paradoxical anti-inflammatory property for CG.

Abstract
The central role of alveolar macrophages in the establishment of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced lung inflammation is well demonstrated. They produce and release numerous proinflammatory molecules, among which is tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha), a cytokine responsible in part for the neutrophilic alveolitis. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) produced by LPS-activated mononuclear phagocytes is a major anti-inflammatory cytokine that down-regulates TNF-alpha synthesis. We studied the ability of murine alveolar macrophages to produce IL-10 in vivo and in vitro, in response to LPS. Unexpectedly, the IL-10 protein was not detected in the whole lung and airspaces after LPS intranasal instillation. In addition, no IL-10 protein was found in supernatants of isolated and LPS-stimulated alveolar macrophages. The lack of IL-10 synthesis was confirmed by the absence of specific RNA transcripts. By contrast and as expected, autologous peritoneal macrophages produced IL-10 upon LPS challenge. Drugs that usually modify the TNF-alpha/IL-10 balance in favor of IL-10 were used without success. Thus, maneuvers allowing an increase in intracellular cAMP concentrations did not reverse this unexpected phenotype. Moreover, direct activation of protein kinase C with PMA was unable to trigger IL-10 formation by alveolar, by contrast to peritoneal, macrophages. The current findings describe a specific phenotype for murine alveolar macrophages during LPS-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Human leukocyte elastase (HLE), a polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN) serine proteinase, is proteolytically active on some membrane receptors at the surface of immune cells. The present study focused on the effect of HLE on the expression of CD14, the main bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) receptor at the surface of monocytes. HLE exhibited a time- and concentration-dependent downregulatory effect on CD14 surface expression. A 30-minute incubation of 3 microM HLE was required to display 95% disappearance of the receptor. This downregulation resulted from a direct proteolytic process, not from a shedding consecutive to monocyte activation as observed upon challenge with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). To confirm that CD14 is a substrate for HLE, this enzyme was incubated with recombinant human CD14 (Mr approximately 57,000), and proteolysis was further analyzed by immunoblot analysis. Cleavage of the CD14 molecule was directly evidenced by the generation of short-lived fragments (Mr approximately 47,000 and 30,000). As a consequence of the CD14 proteolysis, a decrease in the responsiveness of monocytes to LPS was observed, as assessed by measuring tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) formation. This inhibition was only observed with 1 ng/ml of LPS, i.e., when only the CD14-dependent pathway was involved. At a higher LPS concentration, such as 10 microgram/ml, when CD14-independent pathways were operative, this inhibition was overcome. The direct proteolysis by HLE of the membrane CD14 expressed on monocytes illustrates a potential anti-inflammatory effect of HLE through inhibition of LPS-mediated cell activation.

Abstract
Glycopeptides derived from the GRGDS sequence were synthesized to study the effect of the sugar residue on the activity of these peptides. The peptides were tested as inhibitors of cell adhesion to fibronectin and of platelet aggregation. The sugar moiety was found to reduce the biological activity of the parent compounds except for the cyclic derivatives P37 and P38 where the inhibition of platelet aggregation was increased. Some interesting differences were observed between the peptides bearing sugar residues with free hydroxyl groups and those with peracetylated sugars.

Abstract
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.

Abstract
1. Our previous work demonstrated that bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS), administered by aerosol, induced tumour necrosis factor (TNF-alpha) synthesis leading to the infiltration of neutrophils into mice lungs. The treatment of animals with prostaglandin E2 or dibutyryl cyclic AMP impaired both processes. In this study, the target cell for LPS and the modulation by cyclic AMP of TNF-alpha production and neutrophil recruitment were investigated. 2. One hour after inhalation of 2 ml of 0.3 mg ml(-1) LPS, TNF-alpha levels measured by an ELISA method increased in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of BALB/c mice, reaching a maximal level 3 h after inhalation. The immunocytochemistry assay demonstrated that 1 h after inhalation, 21.2% of alveolar macrophages collected in the BALF were immunopositive for TNF-alpha. 3. When mice were pretreated, i.p., with 20 mg kg(-1) rolipram, a selective inhibitor of phosphodiesterase type 4, TNF-alpha levels in the BALF were significantly reduced and only 7.3% of alveolar macrophages were immunopositive for TNF-alpha. 4. Alveolar macrophages from rolipram-treated mice collected 30 min after inhalation of LPS had a significant increase in the intracellular concentrations of cyclic AMP. This was accompanied by a marked reduction of TNF-alpha levels in the BALF that were associated with a suppression of TNF-alpha mRNA expression. 5. Systemic treatment with 20 mg kg(-1) rolipram almost completely inhibited the LPS-induced neutrophil recruitment, whereas it did not significantly reduce the recruitment induced by rmTNF-alpha. 6. Our results indicate that alveolar macrophages may be the target cells for both the induction and control of the lung inflammatory response to LPS. They also suggest that systemic treatment with cyclic AMP-elevating agents may be useful to control local inflammation resulting from inhalation of bacterial endotoxin.

Abstract
Secretory leukocyte proteinase inhibitor (SLPI) is the main neutrophil elastase (HLE) inhibitor found in the upper airways during pulmonary inflammation. It has been shown to be synthesized and secreted in vitro by epithelial cells and has been localized in tracheal glands and bronchiolar epithelial cells by immunocytochemistry. In this study, using immunodetection and immunopurification techniques with specific anti-SLPI immunoglobulin G (IgG), we show that SLPI is present as a native 14-kDa molecule in neutrophil cytosol. In addition, we demonstrate that SLPI is the major inhibitor of HLE present in neutrophil cytosol because pre-incubation with specific anti-SLPI IgG was able to inhibit completely the anti-HLE activity of the cytosol. SLPI can be secreted (probably in an inactive form) by neutrophils and its secretion is enhanced when the cells are stimulated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA). Elafin, an elastase-specific inhibitor, is also present in minute amounts in neutrophil cytosol and its secretion can be up-regulated. The presence of SLPI in the cytosol of neutrophils may serve as a protective screen against proteinases spilling from azurophilic granules. An alternative or supplementary role may be the maintenance of a differentiated phenotype.

Abstract
Neutrophil elastase (NE) and cathepsin G are two serine proteinases released concomitantly by stimulated polymorphonuclear neutrophils. We previously demonstrated that while NE by itself does not activate human platelets, it strongly enhances the weak aggregation induced by a threshold concentration of cathepsin G (threshold of cathepsin G) (Renesto, P., and Chignard, M. (1993) Blood 82, 139-144). The aim of this study was to delineate the molecular mechanisms involved in this potentiation process. Two main pieces of data prompted us to focus on the activation of the platelet fibrinogen receptor, the alphaIIbbeta3 integrin. First, previous studies have shown this integrin to be particularly prone to proteolytic regulation of its function. Second, we found that the potentiating activity of NE on the threshold of cathepsin G-induced platelet aggregation was strictly dependent on the presence of exogenous fibrinogen. Using flow cytometry analysis, NE was shown to trigger a time-dependent binding of PAC-1 and AP-5, two monoclonal antibodies specific for the activated and ligand-occupied conformers of alphaIIbbeta3. Furthermore, the potentiated aggregation was shown to result from an increased capacity of platelets to bind fibrinogen. Indeed, the combination of NE and threshold of cathepsin G increased the binding of PAC-1 approximately 5.5-fold over basal values measured on nontreated platelets, whereas this binding raised only by approximately 3-fold in threshold of cathepsin G-stimulated platelets (p < 0.05). By contrast, phosphatidic acid accumulation, pleckstrin phosphorylation, and calcium mobilization produced by the combination of NE and threshold of cathepsin G were not significantly different from those measured with threshold of cathepsin G alone (p > 0.05), indicating that the phospholipase C/protein kinase C pathway is not involved in the potentiation of aggregation. The foregoing data, as well as the requirement of catalytically active NE to trigger alphaIIbbeta3 activation and potentiate threshold of cathepsin G-initiated platelet aggregation, led us to examine whether the structure of this integrin was affected by NE. Immunoblot and flow cytometry analysis revealed a limited proteolysis of the carboxyl terminus of the alphaIIb subunit heavy chain (alphaIIbH), as judged by the disappearance of the epitope for the monoclonal antibody PMI-1. Mass spectrometry studies performed on a synthetic peptide mapping over the cleavage domain of alphaIIbH predicted the site of proteolysis as located between Val837 and Asp838. Treatment by NE of ATP-depleted platelets or Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing human recombinant alphaIIbbeta3 clearly established that activation of the integrin was independent of signal transduction events and was concomitant with the proteolysis of alphaIIbH. In support of this latter observation, a close correlation was observed between the kinetics of proteolysis of alphaIIbH on platelets and that of expression of the ligand binding activity of alphaIIbbeta3 (r2 = 0.902, p </= 0. 005). However, only a subpopulation ( approximately 25%) of the proteolyzed alphaIIbbeta3 appeared to fully express the ligand binding capacity. Altogether, these results demonstrate that NE up-regulates the fibrinogen binding activity of alphaIIbbeta3 through a restricted proteolysis of the alphaIIb subunit, and that this process is relevant for the potentiation of platelet aggregation.

Abstract
Suramin, a hexasulfonated naphtylurea recently used as an anti-tumor drug, is a potent inhibitor of human neutrophil elastase, cathepsin G, and proteinase 3. The complexes it forms with these enzymes are partially active on synthetic substrates, but full inhibition takes place when elastase activity is measured with fibrous elastin or when cathepsin G activity is measured using platelet aggregation. One molecule of elastase binds four molecules of suramin with a Ki of 2 x 10(-7) M as determined by enzyme inhibition or intrinsic fluorescence enhancement of suramin. The binding curves show no sign of cooperativity or anticooperativity. The Ki for the complexes with cathepsin G and proteinase 3 are 8 x 10(-8) and 5 x 10(-7) M, respectively. Ionic strength increases the Ki of the elastase-suramin complex in a way that suggests that four of the six sulfonate groups of suramin form ionic interactions with basic residues of the enzyme and that at saturation almost all arginines of elastase form salt bridges with suramin. The neutrophil proteinase-inhibitory activity of suramin might be used to prevent tissue destruction and thrombus formation in diseases where massive infiltration and activation of neutrophils take place.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the inhibitory effects of human leukocyte elastase (HLE), cathepsin G (Cat G), and proteinase 3 (PR3) on the activation of endothelial cells (ECs) and platelets by thrombin and to elucidate the underlying mechanisms. Although preincubation of ECs with HLE or Cat G prevented cytosolic calcium mobilization and prostacyclin synthesis induced by thrombin, these cell responses were not affected when triggered by TRAP42-55, a synthetic peptide corresponding to the sequence of the tethered ligand (Ser42-Phe55) unmasked by thrombin on cleavage of its receptor. Using IIaR-A, a monoclonal antibody directed against the sequence encompassing this cleavage site, flow cytometry analysis showed that the surface expression of this epitope was abolished after incubation of ECs with HLE or Cat G. Further experiments conducted with platelets indicated that not only HLE and Cat G but also PR3 inhibited cell activation induced by thrombin, although they were again ineffective when TRAP42-55 was the agonist. Similar to that for ECs, the epitope for IIaR-A disappeared on treatment of platelets with either proteinase. These results suggested that the neutrophil enzymes proteolyzed the thrombin receptor downstream of the thrombin cleavage site (Arg41-Ser42) but left intact the TRAP42-55 binding site (Gln83-Ser93) within the extracellular aminoterminal domain. The capacity of these proteinases to cleave five overlapping synthetic peptides mapping the portion of the receptor from Asn35 to Pro85 was then investigated. Mass spectrometry studies showed several distinct cleavage sites, i.e., two for HLE (Val(72)-Ser73 and Ile74-Asn75), three for Cat G (Arg41-Ser42, Phe55-Trp56 and Tyr69-Arg70), and one for PR3 (Val(72)-Ser73). We conclude that this singular susceptibility of the thrombin receptor to proteolysis accounts for the ability of neutrophil proteinases to inhibit cell responses to thrombin.

Abstract
In the present study we investigated the modulation of the polymorphonuclear neutrophil (PMN)-endothelial cell adhesion process by the two main proteinases released from activated PMN during their adhesion to endothelium. Our results showed that, in contrast with elastase, cathepsin G was a powerful inhibitor of PAIN adhesion to interleukin-1 (IL-1)-treated human umbilical vein endothelial cells. This inhibitory effect was linked to the enzymatic activity of the proteinase and was selectively directed against PMN. Because the viability and the reactivity of PMN were not modified by cathepsin G, we looked for a possible effect on adhesion molecules. L-selectin was not cleaved by cathepsin G, whereas it was by chymotrypsin, a closely related proteinase. Cathepsin G blocked PMN adhesion to activated endothelial cells, but also to serum- or fibrinogen-coated plates, three adhesion processes mediated by CD11b/CD18. However, by FACScan analysis or by immunoprecipitation, we failed to find evidence of modifications of CD11b/CD18 expression. Although the precise molecular target(s) of cathepsin G remain(s) to be defined, these data indicate that this proteinase, which is known as an inflammatory mediator, can also be considered as a potential down-regulator of adhesion reactions involved in the inflammatory process.

Abstract
The serine-proteinase cathepsin G (CG) is a potent agonist of platelet aggregation inducing the release and surface expression of alpha-granule adhesive proteins such as fibrinogen (Fg) and thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1). Because Fg and TSP-1 are potential substrates for the enzymatic activity of CG, we investigated the fate of these proteins during CG-induced platelet aggregation using an immunoblot technique. Only a small proportion of secreted Fg was proteolyzed by CG and platelet aggregation was efficiently inhibited by anti-fibrinogen Fab fragments. In contrast, TSP-1 was extensively proteolyzed on aggregated platelets releasing in the milieu a fragment with Mr approximately 28 000, corresponding to the amino-terminal heparin-binding domain (HBD). Several antibodies, directed against the cell-associated carboxy-terminal TSP-1f fragment (Mr approximately 165000) impaired the formation of stable macroaggregates, indicating that this fragment may contribute to platelet aggregation in the absence of the HBD.

Abstract
1. The adult respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is an acute lung inflammation developed after direct or indirect contact with pathogenic agents. In the present study, a mouse model was developed to mimic this condition using aerosolized bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and to investigate the mechanisms involved in the lung inflammatory response. 2. Inhalation of LPS led to a time and dose-dependent increase in tumour necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) production and neutrophil recruitment into the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) of Balb/c mice. Under the same conditions, neutrophil infiltration was also found in the BALF of the LPS-sensitive mouse strain C3H/HeN, but was absent in the LPS-resistant strain C3H/HeJ. Intranasal administration of murine recombinant TNF-alpha also triggered neutrophil recruitment. 3. One hour after inhalation of LPS, half of the maximal level of TNF-alpha was measured in the BALF, but only a few neutrophils were detected at this time. The peak TNF-alpha concentration was reached at 3 h, when the neutrophil amount started to increase. At 24 h, maximal neutrophil number was found in the BALF and TNF-alpha was no longer present. 4. Pretreatment of mice under different experimental conditions demonstrated that: (a) cycloheximide almost completely blocks both neutrophil recruitment and TNF-alpha production; (b) anti TNF-alpha antibodies block neutrophil recruitment; (c) indomethacin or aspirin enhance by two fold neutrophil recruitment; (d) indomethacin significantly increases TNF-alpha production 1 h after inhalation of LPS; (e) dibutyryl cyclic AMP and prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) block both neutrophil recruitment and TNF-alpha production. 5. It is concluded that aerosolized LPS in mice triggers an acute lung inflammation which can be used as a potential model of inhalational ARDS and that, strategies leading to the elevation of cyclic AMP levels in vivo can be effective in modulating LPS-induced TNF-alpha synthesis and neutrophil recruitment.

Abstract
1. The mechanism(s) responsible for injury of endothelial cells induced by human leukocyte elastase (HLE) was investigated in an immortalized venous human endothelial cell line (IVEC). 2. First, the proteinase concentrations and incubation delays necessary to trigger a significant IVEC cytotoxicity were determined by chromium assays. Thus, exposure of IVEC for 6 h to 10 micrograms ml-1 HLE resulted in 22 +/- 2.8% lysis and 36.4 +/- 5.4% detachment (mean +/- s.e. mean; n = 4; P < 0.05). 3. WEB 2086, a specific platelet-activating factor (PAF) receptor antagonist, induced a significant concentration-dependent decrease of such a lysis (39.6 +/- 7.7% protection at 100 microM; n = 4). This potential role for PAF was confirmed with two other antagonists of this lipid mediator, i.e., BN 52021 and RP 48740. 4. Finally, we demonstrated that pretreatment of IVEC with WEB 2086 protected significantly against cell lysis induced by stimulated human neutrophils, an experimental model in which HLE participates.

Abstract
Cathepsin G, an enzyme released by stimulated polymorphonuclear neutrophils, and thrombin are two human proteinases which potently trigger platelet activation. Unlike thrombin, the mechanisms by which cathepsin G initiates platelet activation have yet to be elucidated. The involvement of the phospholipase C (PLC)/protein kinase C (PKC) pathway in cathepsin G-induced activation was investigated and compared with stimulation by thrombin. Exposure of 5-[14C]hydroxytryptamine-labelled platelets to cathepsin G, in the presence of acetylsalicylic acid and phosphocreatine/creatine kinase, induced platelet aggregation and degranulation in a concentration-dependent manner (0.1-3.0 microM). Time-course studies (0-180 s) comparing equivalent concentrations of cathepsin G (3 microM) and thrombin (0.5 unit/ml) resulted in very similar transient hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate and steady accumulation of phosphatidic acid. In addition cathepsin G, like thrombin, initiated the production of inositol phosphates. The neutrophil-derived proteinase also induced phosphorylation of both the myosin light chain and pleckstrin, a substrate for PKC, to levels similar to those observed in platelets challenged with thrombin. Inhibition of PKC by GF 109203X, a specific inhibitor, suppressed platelet aggregation and degranulation to the same extent for both proteinases. Using fura 2-loaded platelets, the rise in the cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration induced by cathepsin G was shown to result, as for thrombin, from both mobilization of internal stores and Ca2+ entry across the plasma membrane. These findings provide evidence that cathepsin G stimulates the PLC/PKC pathway as potently as does thrombin, independently of thromboxane A2 formation and ADP release, and that this pathway is required for platelet functional responses.

Abstract
1. Neutrophils and platelets interact in vitro through multiple biochemical pathways in both directions, resulting in an inhibition or a potentiation of their reactivity, depending on the experimental conditions. 2. Under some conditions, a full stimulation of platelets (aggregation and degranulation) can be induced by neutrophils. The present review is focused on this aspect for which serine proteinases released from the azurophilic granules of neutrophils activate surrounding platelets. 3. The different facets of this process at the cellular and molecular levels, are presently depicted and their relevance to the in vivo situation suggested.
