Comparison of fluticasone propionate and budesonide on COPD macrophage and neutrophil function.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Inhaled corticosteroid use is associated with increased rates of pneumonia in COPD patients. The underlying mechanism is unknown, although recent data suggest that pneumonia is more frequent in patients treated with fluticasone propionate (FP) than budesonide. Macrophages and neutrophils from COPD patients are deficient in clearing bacteria, and this might explain increased bacterial colonization in COPD. Inhaled corticosteroid may further suppress this response; therefore, we examined the effect of FP and budesonide on phagocytosis of common respiratory pathogens by monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) and neutrophils.

Methods

MDMs from COPD patients (n=20-24) were preincubated with FP or budesonide for 1 or 18 hours, after which phagocytosis of fluorescently labeled inert beads or heat-killed Haemophilus influenzae/Streptococcus pneumoniae were measured fluorimetrically after 1 or 4 hours. Additionally, CXCL8, IL6, and TNF? concentrations in supernatants by ELISA, MDM-scavenger-receptor expression by flow cytometry, and MDM ability to kill bacteria were measured. Neutrophils from COPD patients (n=8) were preincubated with corticosteroids for 1 hour and bacteria phagocytosis measured by flow cytometry.

Results

After 1 hour's preincubation, neither corticosteroid altered MDM phagocytosis of beads or H. influenzae; however, budesonide (10^-7 M) increased S. pneumoniae phagocytosis by 23% (P<0.05). After 18 hours' preincubation, neither corticosteroid altered MDM phagocytosis of any prey, although H. influenzae phagocytosis by budesonide was significantly greater compared to FP at 10^-6 and 10^-5 M (P<0.05). The 1-hour preincubation with either corticosteroid inhibited bacteria-induced CXCL8 release (at 10^-7 and 10^-5 M, P<0.05); however, this effect was lost at 18-hour preincubation. There was no change in receptor expression, bacterial killing, or neutrophil phagocytosis by either corticosteroid.

Conclusion

These data suggest that dissolved FP and budesonide do not have an overall effect on MDM or neutrophil phagocytosis of bacteria.

Project description:RATIONALE:Patients with COPD have an increased risk for community-acquired pneumonia, which is further increased by inhaled corticosteroids. OBJECTIVE:To assess effects of the corticosteroids, budesonide and fluticasone propionate, on macrophage bacterial responses in COPD. METHODS:Monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) generated from blood monocytes from 10 non-smoker controls (NoS), 20 smokers without COPD (Sm), and 40 subjects with moderate to severe COPD (21 ex-smokers (COPD-ES) and 19 current smokers (COPD-S)) were pre-treated with budesonide or fluticasone (10 nM-1 μM) and challenged with live non-typeable Haemophilus influenzae (NTHI) or Streptococcus pneumoniae (SP). Cell surface bacterial recognition receptor expression (flow cytometry) and cytokine release (bead array) were analyzed. RESULTS:NTHI and SP reduced bacterial recognition receptor expression on MDMs from COPD and Sm, but not NoS (except TLR4). SR-AI and MARCO were reduced by both NTHI and SP, whereas other receptors by either NTHI or SP. Among COPD subjects, COPD-ES demonstrated a greater number of reductions as compared to COPD-S. NTHI reduced SR-AI, MARCO, CD11b, CD35 and CD206 in COPD-ES while only SR-AI and CD11b in COPD-S. SP reduced SRA-1, CD1d, TLR2 and TLR4 in both COPD-ES and COPD-S, and reduced MARCO and CD93 only in COPD-ES. All receptors reduced in COPD by NTHI and most by SP, were also reduced in Sm. Budesonide counteracted the receptor reductions induced by both NTHI (CD206 p = 0.03, MARCO p = 0.08) and SP (SR-AI p = 0.02) in COPD-ES. Fluticasone counteracted only SP-induced reductions in TLR2 (p = 0.008 COPD-ES and p = 0.04 COPD-S) and TLR4 (p = 0.02 COPD-ES). Cytokine release was equivalently reduced by both corticosteroids. CONCLUSIONS:Reduction in macrophage bacterial recognition receptors during bacterial exposure could provide a mechanism for the increased pneumonia risk in COPD. Differential effects of budesonide and fluticasone propionate on macrophage bacterial recognition receptor expression may contribute to the higher pneumonia incidence reported with fluticasone propionate.
