Following withdrawal of immunosuppression, surfactant protein A (SP-A)-deficient and wild-type mice cleared Pneumocystis murina infection in a similar manner, but exhibited significant differences in lymphocyte populations, interleukin (IL)-6 levels and chemokine expression levels. A higher percentage of lymphocytes were detected in lung lavage fluid from SP-A-deficient mice, but more CD4+ T cells were isolated from lung tissue of wild-type mice. Higher concentrations of IL-6 were detected in lavage fluid and enhanced expression of lymphotactin and RANTES were detected in the lungs of wild-type mice. Equal levels of surfactant protein D were detected in SP-A-deficient and wild-type mice and no differences were detected in markers of lung injury between the two strains of mice. Thus, SP-A does not enhance organism clearance, but does modulate the host immune response during resolution of P. murina infection.
