Abstract excerpt
In 49 acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) patients, the phenotype of alveolar macrophages (AMs) was analyzed by flow cytometry. Bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) was performed within 24 h after intubation and on days 3-5, 9-12, and 18-21 of mechanical ventilation. The 27E10(high)/CD11b(high)/CD71(low)/ 25F9(low)/HLA DR(low)/RM3/1(low) AM population in the first BAL indicated extensive monocyte influx into the...
