ABSTRACT
Objective To research the chronic respiratory infectious diseases caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa need to objectively the reflection of the real environment in the body, so established a mouse model of chronic pulmonary infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa and analyzed it's inflammatory response. Methods Establishment of chronic bronchial infection mice model that were inoculated with Pseudomonos aeruginosa-laden agarose beads, and analyzed its inflammatory response by detected the cytokines and MMP-2, and a differential cell count and a total leukocytes count were performed as well. Results Pseudomonas aeruginosa had been detected after infection, and there were changes in pathological. Pulmonary inflammation appeared in 1 d and reached near baseline levels by 7 d after inoculation. It was verified that the peak of inflammatory reaction in Pseudomonas aeruginosa infection is in 2-3 d; the mice did have detectable levels of circulating matrix metalloproteinase-2 ( MMP-2 ) after infection with Pseudomonas aeruginosa. MMP-2 concentrations in the blood serum peaked at 3 d after inoculation. It is indicated that Pseudomonas aeruginosa can initiate a certain degree of pulmonary fibrosis on the basis of the pulmonary inflammation. Conclusion In this study, chronic bronchial infection animal model affected by Pseudomonas aeruginosa was established successfully. Base on this animal model, we can do the pathogenicity and drug resistance of Pseudomonas aeruginosa further study.
