We previously demonstrated that resident alveolar macrophages from naive mice do not synthesize interleukin (IL)-10, whereas mononuclear phagocytes (MP) recruited during the lung inflammatory process are transiently competent for IL-10 production when exposed to lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vitro. As surfactant protein A (SP-A), a member of the collectin family, inhibits LPS-induced in vitro IL-10 formation by bone marrow-derived macrophages, we studied its effect on MP under in vivo inflammatory conditions. When mice with LPS-induced inflamed lungs were given a second intranasal LPS administration, IL-10 concentration recovered in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluids varied as a function of the time interval between the two LPS doses. Thus, IL-10 concentration increased with the number of MP up to Day 3, and then decreased to undetectable values within 24 h, despite a continued increase in the number of MP. Analysis of IL-10 mRNA from purified MP indicated that gene expression correlated with the IL-10 level in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. In contrast to IL-10 production, SP-A concentrations during LPS-induced inflammation decreased with a nadir at Day 3, and then increased significantly within 24 h. Furthermore, intranasal administration of exogenous SP-A to mice with LPS-induced inflamed lungs led to a repression of the IL-10 production. In summary, this study demonstrates for the first time an in vivo inhibitory role of SP-A on the anti-inflammatory activity of MP, through inhibition of IL-10 production.
