“…We previously demonstrated that feeding C57BL/6 mice for 5 wk with EPA/DHA improved the outcomes of acute and chronic P. aeruginosa lung infections by reducing mortality and lung injury, evaluated by measuring the permeability of the alveolar-capillary barrier (27,28). This benefit was correlated with the beneficial suppressive effects on mucin overexpression (29) and better control of the proinflammatory response together with limited neutrophil recruitment and faster clearance of bacteria during the first 24 h of infection (30).…”

“…In in vivo experiments using a rat model of P. aeruginosa pneumonia, it was observed that several oxidative metabolites of arachidonic acid, including 20-HETE, contributed to pulmonary vascular hypo reactivity (94). Finally, Auvin and colleagues showed that dietary supplementation of arachidonic acid in a mouse model of P. aeruginosa infection led to an increased mortality rate (95). The results from all of these studies point to an important interaction between P. aeruginosa and arachidonic acid and its metabolites.…”

“…Upon infection of the airway, pseudomonads infect alveolar epithelial cells and resident macrophages, eliciting release of pro-inflammatory cytokines to recruit immune cells into the lung parenchyma and airspaces [17,1922]. Subsequent damage to the alveolar epithelial barrier allows direct infection of lung endothelial cells that, along with the deleterious effects of endotoxin and cytokines, precipitate vascular endothelial barrier disruption [2,20,2327].…”
