| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
1)Acinetobacter baumannii (A.baumannii) were resistant to phagocytosis and bactericidal activity by neutrophils as compared with Pseudomonas aeruginosa, neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) formation was very little. 2) The lethality in a pulmonary infection mouse model caused by P. aeruginosa was higher than that of A.baumannii infection. 3) When neutrophils were stimulated with the lipopolysaccharides (LPS) derived from an A.baumannii standard strain or a multi-drug resistant strain (MDRA), gene expression levels of inflammatory cytokines in neutrophils were equally upregulated. Membrane vesicles derived from A.baumannii could not stimulate the production of reactive oxygen in neutrophils, but acted as a chemoattractant. 4) A. baumannii-derived LPS enhanced the TNF-α and IL-8 production in mast cells. 5) We have developed a LAMP method to detect MDRA. 6) Humoral immunodeficiency may be a predisposing factor to severe pathological conditions during A. baumannii infections.
