Mice lacking surfactant protein
SP-A [SP-A(
/
)] and wild type SP-A(+/+) mice were infected with
influenza A virus (IAV) by intranasal instillation. Decreased clearance
of IAV was observed in SP-A(
/
) mice and was associated with
increased pulmonary inflammation. Treatment of SP-A(
/
) mice with
exogenous SP-A enhanced viral clearance and decreased lung
inflammation. Uptake of IAV by alveolar macrophages was similar in
SP-A(
/
) and SP-A(+/+) mice. Myeloperoxidase activity was reduced in
isolated bronchoalveolar lavage neutrophils from SP-A(
/
) mice. B
lymphocytes and activated T lymphocytes were increased in the lung and
spleen, whereas T helper (Th) 1 responses were increased
[interferon-
, interleukin (IL)-2, and IgG2a] and Th2
responses were decreased (IL-4, and IL-10, and IgG1) in the
lungs of SP-A(
/
) mice 7 days after IAV infection. In the absence of
SP-A, impaired viral clearance was associated with increased lung
inflammation, decreased neutrophil myeloperoxidase activity, and
increased Th1 responses. Because the airway is the usual portal of
entry for IAV and other respiratory pathogens, SP-A is likely to play a
role in innate defense and adaptive immune responses to IAV.
