  abstract  = {Es war ein wichtiger Meilenstein in der Behandlung der pulmonalarteriellen Hypertonie, als herausgefunden wurde, dass gewisse Patienten mit positivem Vasoreagibilit{\"a}tstest von einer Langzeittherapie mit Kalziumkanalantagonisten profitieren und eine deutlich erh{\"o}hte Lebenserwartung aufweisen. Seit 2018 werden diese Patienten einer eigenen Subklassifikation zugeordnet. Das Augenmerk dieser retrospektiven Studie lag daher insbesondere darauf, welche vasoresponsiven Patienten zur neuen Gruppe der Langzeit-Kalziumkanalblocker-Responder geh{\"o}ren und ob das Konzept der wiederholten Vasoreagibilit{\"a}tstestungen in diesem Kollektiv umgesetzt wird.},

  abstract  = {Pulmonary mucosal immune response is critical for preventing opportunistic Aspergillus fumigatus infections. Although fungus-specific CD4\(^{+}\) T cells in blood are described to reflect the actual host-pathogen interaction status, little is known about Aspergillus-specific pulmonary T-cell responses. Here, we exploit the domestic pig as human-relevant large animal model and introduce antigen-specific T-cell enrichment in pigs to address Aspergillus-specific T cells in the lung compared to peripheral blood. In healthy, environmentally Aspergillus-exposed pigs, the fungus-specific T cells are detectable in blood in similar frequencies as observed in healthy humans and exhibit a Th1 phenotype. Exposing pigs to 10\(^{6}\) cfu/m\(^{3}\) conidia induces a long-lasting accumulation of Aspergillus-specific Th1 cells locally in the lung and also systemically. Temporary immunosuppression during Aspergillus-exposure showed a drastic reduction in the lung-infiltrating antifungal T-cell responses more than 2 weeks after abrogation of the suppressive treatment. This was reflected in blood, but to a much lesser extent. In conclusion, by using the human-relevant large animal model the pig, this study highlights that the blood clearly reflects the mucosal fungal-specific T-cell reactivity in environmentally exposed as well as experimentally exposed healthy pigs. But, immunosuppression significantly impacts the mucosal site in contrast to the initial systemic immune response.},
