Mucus hypersecretion is a major manifestation in patients with chronic inflammatory airway diseases, and mucin5AC (MUC5AC) protein is a major component of airway mucus. Previous studies have demonstrated that neutrophil elastase (NE) stimulates the secretion of MUC5AC from airway epithelial cells, however, the mechanism is poorly understood. NE is a known ligand for protein active receptors (PARs), which have been confirmed to participate in releasing MUC5AC in the airways. However, the role of PARs in NE-induced MUC5AC secretion remains unclear. We demonstrated that airway goblet-like Calu-3 cells express PAR1, PAR2, and PAR3 with a predominant level of PAR2. NE can increase PAR2 expression and MUC5AC release. In our study, we showed that NE binding to PAR2 can increase the cytosolic calcium concentration and subsequently activate PKC, leading to MUC5AC secretion. In order to investigate the mechanism of increased cytosolic calcium in Calu-3 cells, thapsigargin was used to exhaust the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) calcium pools, and 2-aminoethoxydiphenyl borate was used to inhibit the function of the store-operated calcium entry (SOCE) channels in the plasma membrane. We found that the NE-induced increase in intracellular calcium concentration is derived from release of the ER calcium pool and its subsequent calcium internal flux from the extracellular space via SOCE channels, which is dependent on sufficient levels of extracellular calcium. 相似文献

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S. Because cigarette smoking is so importantly implicated in the pathogenesis of COPD and because mucus hypersecretion plays such an important role in COPD, understanding of the mechanisms of smoking-induced mucus hypersecretion could lead to new therapies for COPD. Cigarette smoke causes mucin overproduction via EGF receptor (EGFR) in airway epithelial cells, but the cellular mechanism remains unknown. Airway epithelial cells contain EGFR proligands on their surfaces, which can be cleaved by metalloprotease and subsequently bind to EGFR resulting in mucin production. We hypothesize that TNF-alpha-converting enzyme (TACE) is activated by cigarette smoke, resulting in increased shedding of EGFR proligand, leading to EGFR phosphorylation and mucin induction in human airway epithelial (NCI-H292) cells. Here we show that cigarette smoke increases MUC5AC production in NCI-H292 cells, an effect that is prevented by an EGFR-neutralizing antibody and by specific knockdown of transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) using small interfering RNA (siRNA) for TGF-alpha, implicating TGF-alpha-dependent EGFR activation in the responses. Cigarette smoke increases TGF-alpha shedding, EGFR phosphorylation, and mucin production, which are prevented by metalloprotease inhibitors (GM-6001 and TNF-alpha protease inhibitor-1) and by specific knockdown of TACE with TACE siRNA, implicating TACE in smoking-induced responses. Furthermore, pretreatment with antioxidants prevents smoking-induced TGF-alpha shedding and mucin production, suggesting that reactive oxygen species is involved in TACE activation. These results implicate TACE in smoking-induced mucin overproduction via the TACE-proligand-EGFR signal pathway in NCI-H292 cells. 相似文献

Mucin overproduction is a hallmark of chronic inflammatory airway diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cystic fibrosis. Excessive production of mucin leads to airway mucus obstruction and contributes to morbidity and mortality in these diseases. The molecular mechanisms underlying mucin overproduction, however, still remain largely unknown. Here, we report that the bacterium P. aeruginosa, an important human respiratory pathogen causing cystic fibrosis, utilizes reactive oxygen species (ROS) to up-regulate MUC5AC mucin expression. Pseudomonas aeruginosa lipopolysaccharide (PA-LPS) induces production of ROS through protein kinase C (PKC)-NADPH oxidase signaling pathway in human epithelial cells. Subsequently, ROS generation by PA-LPS releases transforming growth factor-α (TGF-α), which in turn, leads to up-regulate MUC5AC expression. These findings may bring new insights into the molecular pathogenesis of P. aeruginosa infections and lead to novel therapeutic intervention for inhibiting mucin overproduction in patients with P. aeruginosa infections. 相似文献

In previous work, we showed that epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) activation causes mucin expression in airway epithelium in vivo and in human NCI-H292 airway epithelial cells and normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells in vitro. Here we show that the cell surface adhesion molecule, E-cadherin, promotes EGFR-mediated mucin production in NCI-H292 cells in a cell density- and cell cycle-dependent fashion. The addition of the EGFR ligand, transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha, increased MUC5AC protein expression markedly in dense, but not in sparse, cultures. MUC5AC-positive cells in dense cultures contained 2 N DNA content and did not incorporate bromodeoxyuridine, suggesting that they develop via cell differentiation and that a surface molecule involved in cell-cell contact is important for EGFR-mediated mucin production. In support of this hypothesis, in dense cultures of NCI-H292 cells and in NHBE cells at air-liquid interface, blockade of E-cadherin-mediated cell-cell contacts decreased EGFR-dependent mucin production. E-cadherin blockade also increased EGFR-dependent cell proliferation and TGF-alpha-induced EGFR tyrosine phosphorylation in dense cultures of NCI-H292 cells, suggesting that E-cadherin promotes EGFR-dependent mucin production and inhibits EGFR-dependent cell proliferation via modulation of EGFR phosphotyrosine levels. Furthermore, in dense cultures, E-cadherin blockade decreased the rate of EGFR tyrosine dephosphorylation, implicating an E-cadherin-dependent protein tyrosine phosphatase in EGFR dephosphorylation. Thus E-cadherin promotes EGFR-mediated cell differentiation and MUC5AC production, and our results suggest that this occurs via a pathway involving protein tyrosine phosphatase-dependent EGFR dephosphorylation. 相似文献

The airway epithelium is the initial barrier against airborne pathogens, and it plays many roles in host airway defense. Legionella pneumophila is an intracellular pathogen that causes rapidly advancing pneumonia and is sometimes life-threatening. Here, we evaluated the role of the airway epithelial cells in the defense against L.?pneumophila by examining mucus production in vitro. The production of MUC5AC, a major mucin protein, was not induced by formalin- or ultraviolet-killed L.?pneumophila, but it was induced by live L.?pneumophila. Similarly, nuclear factor-kappaB (NF-κB) was activated only by live L.?pneumophila. Inhibitors of ERK and JNK, but not p38, dose-dependently inhibited the induction of MUC5AC by live L.?pneumophila. Inhibition of intracellular invasion by cytochalasin D did not affect MUC5AC production. Taken together, the results suggest that live L.?pneumophila induces MUC5AC production via the ERK-JNK and NF-κB pathways without internalization of bacteria and that the airway epithelium produces mucin as part of the immune response against L.?pneumophila. 相似文献

Mucus overproduction is an important feature in patients with chronic inflammatory airway diseases. However, the regulatory mechanisms that mediate excessive mucin production remain elusive. Recently, the level of YKL-40, a chitinase-like protein, has been found to be significantly increased in chronic inflammatory airway diseases and has been shown to be associated with the severity of these diseases. In this study, we sought to explore the effect of YKL-40 on mucin5AC (MUC5AC) production in chronic inflammatory airway diseases and the potential signaling pathways involved in this process. We found that elevated YKL-40 levels increased the mRNA and protein expression of MUC5AC in a dose- and time-dependent manner, in association with the phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) and nuclear factor κB (NF-κB), reflecting their activation. These responses were significantly suppressed by the knockdown of protease-activating receptor 2 (PAR2) with specific small interfering RNA or the inhibitors of ERK and NF-κB. YKL-40-induced MUC5AC overproduction was also effectively attenuated by the inhibitor of focal adhesion kinase (FAK). Taken together, these results imply that YKL-40 can stimulate excessive MUC5AC production through PAR2- and FAK-mediated mechanisms. 相似文献

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection is the main cause of bronchiolitis in children. Excessive mucus secretion is one of the primary symbols in RSV related lower respiratory tract infections (RSV-related LRTI), which is closely associated with the occurrence and development of asthma in later life. Integrin β4 (ITGB4) is down-regulated in the airway epithelial cells (AECs) of asthma patients which plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of asthma. However, whether ITGB4 is involved in the pathological processes of RSV infection remains unclear. In this study, we found that decreased expression of ITGB4 was negatively correlated with the level of MUC5AC in childhood AECs following RSV infection. Moreover, ITGB4 deficiency led to mucus hypersecretion and MUC5AC overexpression in the small airway of RSV-infected mice. MUC5AC expression was upregulated by ITGB4 in HBE cells through EGFR, ERK and c-Jun pathways. EGFR inhibitors treatment inhibited mucus hypersecretion and MUC5AC overexpression in ITGB4-deficient mice after RSV infection. Together, these results demonstrated that epithelial ITGB4 deficiency induces mucus hypersecretion by upregulating the expression of MUC5AC through EGFR/ERK/c-Jun pathway, which further associated with RSV-related LRTI. 相似文献

Mucous hypersecretion is an important feature of obstructive airway diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and cystic fibrosis. Multiple stimuli induce mucin production via activation of an epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) cascade, but the mechanisms that exaggerate mucin production in obstructive airway diseases remain unknown. In this study, we show that binding of CCL20, a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) ligand that is upregulated in the airways of subjects with obstructive airway diseases, to its unique GPCR CCR6 induces MUC5AC mucin production in human airway epithelial (NCI-H292) cells via metalloprotease TNF-α-converting enzyme (TACE)-dependent EGFR activation. We also show that EGFR activation by its potent ligand TGF-α induces reactivation of EGFR via binding of endogenously produced CCL20 to its receptor CCR6 in NCI-H292 cells but not in normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells, exaggerating mucin production in the NCI-H292 cells. In NCI-H292 cells, TGF-α stimulation induced two phases of EGFR phosphorylation (EGFR-P). The second EGFR-P was TACE-dependent and was responsible for most of the total mucin induced by TGF-α. Binding of endogenously produced CCL20 to CCR6 increased the second EGFR-P and subsequent mucin production induced by TGF-α. In NHBE cells, TGF-α-induced EGFR activation did not lead to significant CCL20 production or to EGFR rephosphorylation, and less mucin was produced. We conclude that NCI-H292 cells but not NHBE cells produce CCL20 in response to EGFR activation, which leads to a second phase of EGFR-P and subsequent exaggerated mucin production. These findings have potentially important therapeutic implications in obstructive airway diseases. 相似文献

Allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis, characterized by excessive mucus secretion, airflow limitation, bronchiectasis, and peripheral blood eosinophilia, is predominantly caused by a fungal pathogen, Aspergillus fumigatus. Using DNA microarray analysis of NCI-H292 cells, a human bronchial epithelial cell line, stimulated with fungal extracts from A. fumigatus, Alternaria alternata, or Penicillium notatum, we identified a mucin-related MUC5AC as one of the genes, the expression of which was selectively induced by A. fumigatus. Quantitative RT-PCR, ELISA, and histochemical analyses confirmed an induction of mucin and MUC5AC expression by A. fumigatus extracts or the culture supernatant of live microorganisms in NCI-H292 cells and primary cultures of airway epithelial cells. The expression of MUC5AC induced by A. fumigatus extracts diminished in the presence of neutralizing Abs or of inhibitors of the epidermal growth factor receptor or its ligand, TGF-α. We also found that A. fumigatus extracts activated the TNF-α-converting enzyme (TACE), critical for the cleavage of membrane-bound pro-TGF-α, and its inhibition with low-molecular weight inhibitors or small interfering RNA suppressed the expression of MUC5AC. The protease activity of A. fumigatus extracts was greater than that of other fungal extracts, and treatment with a serine protease inhibitor, but not with a cysteine protease inhibitor, eliminated its ability to activate TACE or induce the expression of MUC5AC mRNA in NCI-H292. In conclusion, the prominent serine protease activity of A. fumigatus, which caused the overproduction of mucus by the bronchial epithelium via the activation of the TACE/TGF-α/epidermal growth factor receptor pathway, may be a pathogenetic mechanism of allergic bronchopulmonary mycosis. 相似文献

AbstractThis study aimed to examine the roles of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cisplatin treatment of human prostate cancer cells; hormone-sensitive LNCaP and hormone-refractory PC3 and DU145 cells. Intracellular levels of ROS and H2O2 were measured and visualized using specific fluorescent probes. NADPH oxidase (NOX) activity was detected by lucigenin chemiluminescence assay. Expression levels of NOX isoforms were determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. Cisplatin treatment increased the intracellular levels of ROS and H2O2 in three prostate cancer cell lines. The increase was transient and robust in hormone-sensitive LNCaP cells compared with hormone-refractory PC3 and DU145 cells. Consistent with these findings, the NOX activity induced by cisplatin was higher in LNCaP cells than in PC3 and DU145 cells. Expression pattern of NOX isoforms varied among three cell lines and the NOX activity was independent of NOX expression. Taken together, we have shown that cisplatin induces production of ROS and H2O2 via NOX activation in human prostate cancer cell lines, which is most prominent in hormone-sensitive LNCaP cells. 相似文献

Adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase (AMPK) is a well-known serine/threonine kinase that has been implicated in modulation of glucose and fatty acid metabolism. Recent reports have also implicated AMPK in modulation of mucin secretion. In this study, the effects and signaling pathways of AMPK on MUC5B expression were investigated in human NCI-H292 airway epithelial cells. Metformin, as an activator of AMPK, induced MUC5B expression in a dose-dependent manner. Compound C, as an inhibitor of AMPK, inhibited metformin-induced MUC5B expression in a dose-dependent manner. Metformin significantly activated phosphorylation of AMPK; compound C inhibited metformin-activated phosphorylation of AMPK. Without treatment with metformin, there was no difference in MUC5B mRNA expression between Ad-dnAMPK transfected and wild-type adenovirus transfected NCI-H292 cells. However, after treatment with metformin, MUC5B mRNA expression was increased in wild-type adenovirus transfected NCI-H292 cells; MUC5B mRNA expression was significantly decreased in Ad-dnAMPK transfected NCI-H292 cells. Metformin activated phosphorylation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK); compound C inhibited metformin-activated phosphorylation of p38 MAPK. SB203580, as an inhibitor of p38 MAPK, significantly inhibited metformin-induced MUC5B mRNA expression, while U0126, as an inhibitor of ERK1/2 MAPK, had no effect. In addition, knockdown of p38 MAPK by p38 MAPK siRNA significantly blocked metformin-induced MUC5B mRNA expression. In conclusion, results of this study show that AMPK induces MUC5B expression through the p38 MAPK signaling pathway in airway epithelial cells. 相似文献

Mucin 5AC (MUC5AC) hypersecretion induces airway narrowing in patients with asthma, which leads to breathing problems. We investigated the regulation of MUC5AC secretion by extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins in human primary airway epithelial cells from patients with asthma. The addition of type IV collagen to three-dimensional cultured human primary airway epithelial cells, which mimics the airway surface, reduced MUC5AC secretion in the medium, while the addition of laminin increased MUC5AC secretion. Furthermore, the addition of fibronectin did not affect MUC5AC secretion. In particular, the repeated addition of a low concentration of type IV collagen demonstrated a cumulative effect on the reduction in MUC5AC secretion. Human primary cells incubated with type IV collagen showed downregulated extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activity, which induced MUC5AC hypersecretion but did not affect Akt activity. These results suggest that the addition of type IV collagen to the apical surface of primary cells downregulates MUC5AC secretion and has a cumulative effect on MUC5AC secretion which might be effected via the ERK signaling pathway. 相似文献

The BCR/ABL tyrosine kinase induces production of reactive oxygen species in hematopoietic cells 总被引:18,自引:0,他引:18

The BCR/ABL oncogene causes chronic myelogenous leukemia, a myeloproliferative disorder characterized by clonal expansion of hematopoietic progenitor cells and myeloid cells. It is shown here that transformation of the hematopoietic cell lines Ba/F3, 32Dcl3, and MO7e with BCR/ABL results in an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) compared with quiescent, untransformed cells. The increase in ROS was directly due to BCR/ABL because it was blocked by the ABL-specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor STI571. Oxidative stress through ROS is believed to have many biochemical effects, including the potential ability to inhibit protein-tyrosine phosphatases (PTPases). To understand the significance of increased production of ROS, a model system was established in which hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) was added to untransformed cells to mimic the increase in ROS induced constitutively by BCR/ABL. H(2)O(2) substantially reduced total cellular PTPase activity to a degree approximately equivalent to that of pervanadate, a well known PTPase inhibitor. Further, stimulation of untransformed cells with H(2)O(2) or pervanadate increased tyrosine phosphorylation of each of the most prominent known substrates of BCR/ABL, including c-ABL, c-CBL, SHC, and SHP-2. Treatment of the BCR/ABL-expressing cell line MO7/p210 with the reducing agents pyrrolidine dithiocarbamate or N-acetylcysteine reduced the accumulation of ROS and also decreased tyrosine phosphorylation of cellular proteins. Further, treatment of MO7e cells with H(2)O(2) or pervanadate increased the tyrosine kinase activity of c-ABL. Drugs that alter ROS metabolism or reactivate PTPases may antagonize BCR/ABL transformation. 相似文献
