Neutrophil elastase cleaves C3bi on opsonized pseudomonas as well as CR1 on neutrophils to create a functionally important opsonin receptor mismatch.

Neutrophil elastase has been implicated as a factor that impairs local host defenses in chronic Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Pa) lung infection in cystic fibrosis (CF). We recently showed that this enzyme cleaves the C3b receptor, CR1, from neutrophils (PMN) in the lungs of infected CF patients. The C3bi...
