Aspergillus fumigatus (AF) is an important opportunistic fungal pathogen and causes invasive pulmonary aspergillosis in conditions with compromised innate antifungal immunity, including chronic granulomatous disease, which results from inherited deficiency of the superoxide-generating leukocyte NADPH oxidase 2 (NOX2). Derivative oxidants have both anti-microbial and immunoregulatory activity, and in the context of AF, contribute to both fungal killing and dampening inflammation induced by fungal cell walls. As the relative roles of macrophage vs neutrophil NOX2 in the host response to AF are incompletely understood, we studied mice with conditional deletion of NOX2. When NOX2 was absent in alveolar macrophages (AM) as a result of LysM-Cre-mediated deletion, germination of inhaled AF conidia was increased. Reducing NOX2 activity specifically in neutrophils via S100a8 (MRP8)-Cre also increased fungal burden, which was inversely proportional to the level of neutrophil NOX2 activity. Moreover, diminished NOX2 in neutrophils synergized with corticosteroid immunosuppression to impair lung clearance of AF. Neutrophil-specific reduction in NOX2 activity also enhanced acute inflammation induced by inhaled sterile fungal cell walls. These results advance understanding into cell-specific roles of NOX2 in the host response to AF. We show that alveolar macrophage NOX2 is a non-redundant effector that limits germination of inhaled AF conidia. In contrast, reducing NOX2 activity only in neutrophils is sufficient to enhance inflammation to fungal cell walls as well as to promote invasive AF. This may be relevant in clinical settings with acquired defects in NOX2 activity due to underlying conditions, which overlap risk factors for invasive aspergillosis.
