“…Increased levels of chemokines, such as IL-8, MIP1-a/b, eotaxin-1, RANTES and MCP-1 were also observed in bronchoalveolar lavage samples from infants with RSV bronchiolitis [48,57,58]. In agreement with release of chemokines, the levels of their receptor increased after RSV infection, such as CCR1, CCR2, and CCR5 on monocytes [58,59], or decreased in the convalescent phase of RSV infected infants, such as CX3CR1 on CD8 + T cells [60]. CCL3, a chemokine for both T cells and NK cells, is significantly upregulated both during primary murine RSV infection [61] and in enhanced immunopathology after antigenic sensitization [62].…”
