In acute lung injury, two subsets of lung macrophages exist in the alveoli: tissue-resident alveolar macrophages (AMs) and monocyte-derived alveolar macrophages (MDMs).However, it is unclear whether these 2 subsets of macrophages have different functions and characteristics during the recovery phase. RNA-sequencing of AMs and MDMs from the recovery period of LPS-induced lung injury mice revealed their differences in proliferation, cell death, phagocytosis, inflammation and tissue repair. Using flow cytometry, we found that AMs showed a higher ability to proliferate, whereas MDMs expressed a larger amount of cell death. We also compared the ability of phagocytosing apoptotic cells and activating adaptive immunity and found that AMs have a stronger ability to phagocytose, while MDMs are the cells that activate lymphocytes during the resolving phase. By testing surface markers, we found that MDMs were more prone to the M1 phenotype, but expressed a higher level of pro-repairing genes. Finally, analysis of a publicly available set of single-cell RNA-sequencing data on bronchoalveolar lavage cells from patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection validated the double-sided role of MDMs. Blockade of inflammatory MDM recruitment using CCR2 −/− mice effectively attenuates lung injury. Therefore, AMs and MDMs exhibited large differences during recovery. AMs are long-lived M2-like tissue-resident macrophages that have a strong ability to proliferate and phagocytose. MDMs are a paradoxical group of macrophages that promote the repair of tissue damage despite being strongly pro-inflammatory early in infection, and they may undergo cell death as inflammation fades. Preventing the massive recruitment of inflammatory MDMs or promoting their transition to pro-repairing phenotype may be a new direction for the treatment of acute lung injury.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the expression and clinical significance of soluble interleukin-2 receptor(sIL-2R) in patients with multiple myeloma(MM). METHODS: 54 newly diagnosed MM patients in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from February 2020 to December 2021 were selected as the observation group, and 60 healthy people in our hospital in the same period were selected as the control group. The expression levels of sIL-2R in the serum of the two groups were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The differences of sIL-2R expression level among different clinical parameter groups in MM patients were compared. The clinical parameters include:gender, age, ISS stage, hemoglobin, albumin, serum creatinine, lactate dehydrogenase and β₂-microglobulin, blood calcium, bone marrow plasma cell ratio and treatment response. The relationship between sIL-2R expression level and progression-free survival(PFS) and overall survival(OS) in MM patients were analyzed. RESULTS: The expression of serum SIL-2R in MM patients was significantly higher than that in healthy control group (P<0.05). The expression of sIL-2R in MM patients who did not achieve complete remission(CR) was significantly higher than those of CR patients (P=0.037). There was no significant difference in the expression of serum sIL-2R between the groups of different sex, age, ISS stage, hemoglobin concentration, albumin content, serum creatinine level, lactate dehydrogenase level, the content of β₂-microglobulin, the concentration of blood calcium, and the proportion of bone marrow plasma cells(P>0.05). The PFS of sIL-2R high expression group(15 months) was shorter than that of sIL-2R low expression group (22 months), which was significant difference (P=0.041). But there was no significant difference in OS between sIL-2R high expression group and sIL-2R low expression group (P=0.124). Univariate analysis results showed that the high expression of serum sIL-2R was associated with poor PFS in MM patients. Multivariate analysis results showed that the high expression of serum sIL-2R was still an independent adverse prognostic factor for PFS in MM patients, However, the expression of serum sIL-2R was not statistically significant in evaluating OS in MM patients by univariate and multivariate analysis. CONCLUSION The expression of serum sIL-2R in MM patients was significantly higher than that in healthy people. Serum sIL-2R is an independent prognostic factor of PFS in MM patients.

OBJECTIVE: To detect the level of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in bone marrow of patients with non-M3 acute leukemia (AL), and estimate its relationship with prognosis. METHODS: From January 2016 to December 2019, 114 patients with AL in department of Hematology, Wuwei People's Hospital were selected as study group, and 25 healthy volunteers were enrolled as control group. The concentration of VEGF in bone marrow was detected by ELISA. The patients were divided into high and low concentration group according to the level of VEGF. The overall survival (OS) and event-free survival (EFS) were compared among different groups. RESULTS: The level of VEGF in patients with AL was significantly higher than that in the control group. The median OS and EFS in the low concentration group was 34.5 and 32 months, respectively, while, in the high concentration group was 30 and 26 months, respectively. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant (P=0.010). There were significant differences in OS rate (P=0.035) and EFS rate (P=0.026) between low and high concentration group. Multivariate analysis showed that high VEGF concentration was an independent risk factor affecting OS (HR=2.619, 95%CI 1.070-6.406, P=0.035) and EFS (HR=2.221, 95%CI 1.074-4.552, P=0.031) in AL patients. CONCLUSION VEGF highly expresses in the bone marrow of patients with AL at initial diagnosis and relapse, and shows adverse effects on the prognosis.
