Despite significant advances in critical care, treatments do not reverse the systemic inflammatory response and its consequences. Gram-negative sepsis is initiated by exposure to a component of gram-negative bacterial membrane, lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and induces overproduction of host inflammatory cytokines, including tumor necrosis factor (TNF- α), interleukin-1 (IL-1) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) from immunocytes such as monocytes. Recent studies have shown that similar to LPS, the Respiratory syncytial virus - leading cause of severe lower respiratory tract infections in infants and young children requires the toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) for signaling. Studies have shown that the respiratory syncytial virus attachment glycoprotein (RSV G) modulates cytokine and chemokine production in monocytes, inhibiting the inflammatory response elicited by LPS stimulation. In this report, we use murine monocytes from different knockout mice to show that RSV G can inhibit the release of cytokines in the immune response against lipoplysaccharide induced sepsis. We demonstrate the modulation of IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 and TNF-α by RSV G in monocytes LPS stimulated. Importantly, we also considered the effect of RSV G subunits (peptides) and future directions for the clinical use of the glycoprotein on LPS-mediated inflammation. / Sepse ? uma desordem inflamat?ria sist?mica e sua progress?o para o choque s?ptico caracteriza um s?rio problema cl?nico, apresentando altas taxas de mortalidade. Apesar dos significativos avan?os no tratamento intensivo, os mesmos n?o s?o capazes de reverter a resposta inflamat?ria sist?mica, assim como suas conseq??ncias. A sepse por bact?rias gramnegativas ? desencadeada pela exposi??o a um componente da membrana destas bact?rias, conhecido como lipopolissacar?deo (LPS), o que leva a uma super produ??o de citocinas inflamat?rias no hospedeiro, incluindo o fator de necrose tumoral (TNF-α), a interleucina-1 (IL-1) e a interleucina-6 (IL-6), por sua vez provindas de c?lulas do sistema imune, como os mon?citos. Estudos recentes demonstraram que, de forma similar ao LPS, o v?rus sincicial respirat?rio (RSV) principal causa de infec??o respirat?ria baixa em crian?as e rec?m natos - utiliza o receptor toll-like 4 (TLR4) para sinaliza??o celular. Estudos demonstraram que a glicoprote?na de liga??o do v?rus sincicial respirat?rio (RSV G) age como imunomoduladora na produ??o de citocinas e quimiocinas por mon?citos, inibindo a resposta inflamat?ria estimulada por LPS. Neste artigo, n?s utilizamos mon?citos mon?citos murinos de diferentes camundongos knockout para demonstrar que RSV G pode inibir a produ??o de citocinas na resposta imune contra lipopolissacar?deos em um modelo de sepse. Demonstra-se tamb?m a modula??o das citocinas IL-1β, IL-6, IL-10 e TNF-α por RSV G em mon?citos estimulados por LPS. O artigo ainda considera de forma destacada o efeito de subunidades (pept?deos) de RSV G, bem como destaca perspectivas para o futuro uso cl?nico de glicoprote?nas na modula??o da resposta inflamat?ria mediada por LPS.
