• there is a 6-fold increase in the number of macrophages found in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) 4 hours after aerosolized P. aeruginosa infection
• mutant bone marrow derived macrophages have increased rates of migration to BALF fluids isolated from infected mice
|
• there is a significant decrease in the number of neutrophils found in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid 24 hours after aerosolized P. aeruginosa infection
|
• GM-CSF secretion is enhanced in the lungs 4 hours after aerosolized P. aeruginosa infection
|
• lung homogenates and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) contain significantly less levels of the CXC chemokines KC and MIP-2 four hours after aerosolized P. aeruginosa infection
• there is also a slight decrease in MIP-3alpha levels in BALF after infection
|
• IL-6 secretion is enhanced in the lungs 4 hours after aerosolized P. aeruginosa infection
