Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the mechanism of chronic bronchitis with recurrent long duration infections in the production of MPO anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies(ANCA). Methods:Rats were gave intratracheal injection of LPS and smoked to established chronic bronchitis ( CB ) model. Rat neutrophils were incubated with phorbol-12-myristate-13-acetate ( PMA ) to induce Neutrophil extracellular traps(NETs). NETs were then used to immune chronic bronchitis rats. Serum concentrations of myeloperoxidase anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies(MPO-ANCA),Citrullinated Histone H3(CitH3),Interferon-α(IFN-α)were evaluated. Results:(1)The serum levels of MPO-ANCA in chronic bronchitis rats immuned with NETs(CB/NETs)were significantly higher than those in chronic bronchitis rats(CB)and healthy control rats,(62. 4975±19. 63764)ng/ml vs (17. 3806±4. 88649)ng/ml,(20. 8884± 4. 39607)ng/ml(both P<0. 01). (2)The serum levels of CitH3 in CB/NETs rat were significantly higher than those in CB rat and healthy control rats,(32. 5974±20. 2915)ng/ml vs (8. 8568±2. 36692)ng/ml,(5. 6225±0. 83738)ng/ml(P<0. 05,P<0. 01). (3)The serum levels of IFN-α were found increased sharply in two CB/NETs rats(3735.7,3428.4 pg/ml). (4)Renal function among three groups showed no significant difference yet. ( 5 ) Serum CitH3 level showed a positive correlation with serum MPO-ANCA level(r=0. 61,P<0. 05). Conclusion:Chronic bronchitis with recurrent infections could induce the production of ANCA probably by the stimulation of NETs,but whether it might develop to AAV remains need a duration.
