Background: The progression of chronic destructive lung disease in patients with humoral immunodeficiency (ID) and concomitant development of bronchiectasis is difficult to prevent. Lung function tests in these patients typically show bronchial obstruction of the small airways in combination with increased air trapping in the distal airways, which is consistent with small airway dysfunction. Objective: The objective was to assess the grade of chronic lower airway inflammation and small airway dysfunction from induced sputum and the corresponding local pro-inflammatory mediator pattern to discriminate patients affected by bronchiectasis-related Small Airway Dysfunction (SAD). Methods: In a prospective design, 22 patients with ID (14 CVID, 3 XLA, 3 hyper-IgM syndrome, 1 hyper-IgE syndrome and low IgG levels due to treatment with rituximab and 1 SCID after BMT and persistent humoral defect) and 21 healthy controls were examined. Lung function, Fraction Expiratory Nitric Oxide (FeNO) and pro-inflammatory cytokine levels were compared in subsets of patients with (ID + BE) and without bronchiectasis (ID) pre-stratified using high-resolution computed tomography (HRCT) scans and control subjects. Results: Analysis of induced sputum showed significantly increased total cell counts and severe neutrophilic inflammation in ID. The concomitant SAD revealed higher total cell numbers compared to ID. Bronchial inflammation in ID is clearly mirrored by pro-inflammatory mediators IL-1β, IL-6 and CXCL-8, whilst TNF-α revealed a correlation with lung function parameters altered in the context of bronchiectasis-related Small Airway Dysfunction. Conclusions: In spite of immunoglobulin substitution, bronchial inflammation was dominated by neutrophils and was highly increased in patients with ID + BE. Notably, the pro-inflammatory cytokines in patients with ID were significantly increased in induced sputum. The context-dependent cytokine pattern in relation to the presence of concomitant bronchiectasis associated with SAD in ID patients could be helpful in delimiting ID patient subgroups and individualizing therapeutic approaches.
