A significant increase in neutrophil accumulation in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) and lung interstitium was detected in the WT mice six hours after TNF-α exposure. This correlated with an increase in BALF MIP-2. In contrast, BALF neutrophil numbers were not increased by TNF-α treatment of IL-1β KOs, correlating with a failure to induce BALF MIP-2 and a trend toward increased BALF soluble TNFR1. TNF-α-instillation increased lavage and serum KC and soluble TNFR2 irrespective of IL-1β expression. These results suggest IL-1β contributes, in part, to TNF-α-mediated, chemokine release, and neutrophil recruitment to the lung, potentially associated with altered soluble TNFR1 release into the BALF.
