Inflammation Clinical Trial
Efforts to identify circulating factors that predict severity of acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome(ALI/ARDS) patients is unrevealing. The primary purpose of this study is to verify our hypothesis that soluble CD74 might be a potential novel ALI/ARDS biomarker.
Acute lung injury (ALI) or acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is a devastating cause
of morbidity and mortality characterized by alveolar epithelial and endothelial injury.
Despite recent advances in pathogenetic mechanisms and therapy strategies of ALI, efforts to
identify circulating factors that predict severity of ALI/ARDS patients have been
unrevealing.
CD74 (also known as a MHC class II invariant chain) is a type II transmembrane protein,
recently found to be the high-affinity receptor of macrophage migration inhibitory factor
(MIF). MIF promotes neutrophil accumulation in alveolar space via binding to CD74 expressed
on the cell surface. Our previous study, consistent with others, has shown that MIF was
highly expressed in acute lung injury (ALI). In addition, we also detected highly CD74
expression in lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced ALI mouse model. Recently, a circulating form
of CD74 was discovered in autoimmune liver disease. Similarly, we investigated the existence
of soluble form of CD74 in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) in ALI mouse model
and burn or trauma related ALI patients. Based on these finds, we postulated that soluble
CD74 might participate in regulating lung inflammation and be a potential novel ALI/ARDS
biomarker.
