Cutting Edge: HMG-1 as a Mediator of Acute Lung Inflammation

Abraham, Edward, Arcaroli, John, Carmody, Aaron, Wang, Haichao, Tracey, Kevin J·2000·The Journal of Immunology

Abstract

Acute inflammatory lung injury is often a delayed complication of critical illness and is associated with increased mortality. High mobility group-1 (HMG-1) protein, in addition to its role as a transcriptional regulatory factor, has recently been identified as a late mediator of endotoxin lethality. In the present studies, HMG-1 given intratracheally produced acute inflammatory injury to the lungs, with neutrophil accumulation, the development of lung edema, and increased pulmonary production of IL-1β, TNF-α, and macrophage-inflammatory protein-2. In endotoxin-induced acute lung inflammation, administration of anti-HMG-1 Abs either before or after endotoxin exposure decreased the migration of neutrophils to the lungs as well as lung edema. These protective effects of anti-HMG-1 were specific, because pulmonary levels of IL-1β, TNF-α, or macrophage-inflammatory protein-2 were not decreased after therapy with anti-HMG-1. Together, these findings indicate that HMG-1 is a distal mediator of acute inflammatory lung injury.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
