Autoimmune Pulmonary Alveolar Proteinosis

Cormac McCarthy 1,2, Brenna C. Carey 3,4, and Bruce C. Trapnell 3,4

doi : 10.1164/rccm.202112-2742SO

Autoimmune pulmonary alveolar proteinosis (PAP) is a rare disease characterized by myeloid cell dysfunction, abnormal pulmonary surfactant accumulation, and innate immune deficiency. It has a prevalence of 7–10 per million; occurs in individuals of all races, geographic regions, sex, and socioeconomic status; and accounts for 90% of all patients with PAP syndrome.

doi : 10.1164/rccm.202105-1118OC

Rationale: NT-proBNP (N-terminal pro–brain natriuretic peptide), a biomarker of cardiac origin, is used to risk stratify patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Its limitations include poor sensitivity to early vascular pathology. Other biomarkers of vascular or systemic origin may also be useful in the management of PAH.
