Unique Structural Features That Influence Neutrophil Emigration Into the Lung

Abstract: Neutrophil emigration in the lung differs substantially from that in systemic vascular beds where extravasation occurs primarily through postcapillary venules. Migration into the alveolus occurs directly from alveolar capillaries and appears to progress through a sequence of steps uniquely influenced by the cellular anatomy and organization of the alveolar wall. The cascade of adhesive and stimulatory events so critical to the extravasation of neutrophils from postcapillary venules in many tissues is not evide… Show more

“…35 However, such abundance of lung leukocytes may be also harmful during systemic inflammatory responses. Systemic release of CXCR2 agonists (TNF-a and IL1b) were directly related to an increased pulmonary neutrophilia and remote lung lesion during intestinal I/R injury.…”

“…49 By immunofluorescence, deposition of immunoglobulin may be granular (classical immune deposits as occur in certain renal diseases), or linear (as occurs in other renal diseases and Goodpasture's syndrome). Granular deposits are visible by immunofluorescence, electron microscopy, and sometimes even by light microscopy.…”

“…To reach the airway lumen, PMNs are required to travel through several distinct tissue compartments within the alveolar wall (8,9). PMNs must first escape the alveolar capillary, which involves the termination of their flow through the vessel followed by adherence to the lumen surface of the endothelium.…”
