Chronic bronchitis, a disease mainly of cigarette smokers, shares many clinical features with cystic fibrosis, a disease of altered ion transport, suggesting that the negative effects of cigarette smoke on mucociliary clearance may be mediated through alterations in ion transport. We tested the hypothesis that cigarette smoke extract would inhibit chloride secretion in human bronchial epithelial cells. In agreement with studies in canine trachea, cigarette smoke extract inhibited net chloride secretion without affecting sodium transport. We performed microelectrode impalements and impedance analysis studies to investigate the physiological mechanisms of this inhibition. These data demonstrated that cigarette smoke extract caused an acute increase in membrane resistances in conjunction with apical membrane hyperpolarization, an effect consistent with inhibition of an apical membrane anion conductance. After this acute phase, both membrane resistances decreased while membrane potentials continued to hyperpolarize, indicating that cigarette smoke extract also inhibited the basolateral entry of chloride into the cell. Furthermore, cigarette smoke extract caused an increase in mucin secretion. Therefore, the ion transport phenotype of human bronchial epithelial cells exposed to cigarette smoke extract is similar to that of cystic fibrosis epithelia in which there is sodium absorption out of proportion to chloride secretion in the setting of increased mucus secretion. 相似文献

Background
To demonstrate the involvement of tobacco smoking in the pathophysiology of lung disease, the responses of pulmonary epithelial cells to cigarette smoke condensate (CSC) — the particulate fraction of tobacco smoke — were examined.Methods
The human alveolar epithelial cell line A549 and normal human bronchial epithelial cells (NHBEs) were exposed to 0.4 μg/ml CSC, a concentration that resulted in >90% cell survival and <5% apoptosis. Changes in gene expression and signaling responses were determined by RT-PCR, western blotting and immunocytofluorescence.Results
NHBEs exposed to CSC showed increased expression of the inflammatory mediators sICAM-1, IL-1β, IL-8 and GM-CSF, as determined by RT-PCR. CSC-induced IL-1β expression was reduced by PD98059, a blocker of mitogen-actived protein kinase (MAPK) kinase (MEK), and by PDTC, a NFκB inhibitor. Analysis of intracellular signaling pathways, using antibodies specific for phosphorylated MAPKs (extracellular signal-regulated kinase [ERK]-1/2), demonstrated an increased level of phosphorylated ERK1/2 with increasing CSC concentration. Nuclear localization of phosphorylated ERK1/2 was seen within 30 min of CSC exposure and was inhibited by PD98059. Increased phosphorylation and nuclear translocation of IκB was also seen after CSC exposure. A549 cells transfected with a luciferase reporter plasmid containing a NFκB-inducible promoter sequence and exposed to CSC (0.4 μg/ml) or TNF-α (50 ng/ml) had an increased reporter activity of approximately 2-fold for CSC and 3.5-fold for TNF-α relative to untreated controls.Conclusion
The acute phase response of NHBEs to cigarette smoke involves activation of both MAPK and NFκB. 相似文献3.

This study focuses on the cytotoxic effects of fumonisin B1 (FB1) on both immortalised and immortalised and subsequently transfected normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells of human
origin using four bioassays. While the MTT, Neutral Red and hexosaminidase colorimetric assays showed little difference between
the toxic effects on the two related cell lines, the clonogenic assay, measuring cell survival and proliferation, indicated
that FB1 had a more toxic effect on the nontransfected cells. This kind ofin vitro approach using cells which retain many characteristics of normal cell growth and differentiation can go some way to developing
evaluation models for food safety in the case of mycotoxin contamination without resorting totally to whole animal testing.
Nevertheless, one or two cytotoxicity tests may be inadequate for a complete appraisal of toxic potential: rather, as wide
a range of methodologies as feasible should be employed initially before meaningful conclusions may be drawn. 相似文献

Background
We have previously reported that low concentrations of cigarette smoke extract induce DNA damage without leading to apoptosis or necrosis in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs), and that IL-6/STAT3 signaling contributes to the cell survival. Since NF-κB is also involved in regulating apoptosis and cell survival, the current study was designed to investigate the role of NF-κB in mediating cell survival in response to cigarette smoke exposure in HBECs.Methods
Both the pharmacologic inhibitor of NF-κB, curcumin, and RNA interference targeting p65 were used to block NF-κB signaling in HBECs. Apoptosis and cell survival were then assessed by various methods including COMET assay, LIVE/DEAD Cytotoxicity/Viability assay and colony formation assay.Results
Cigarette smoke extract (CSE) caused DNA damage and cell cycle arrest in S phase without leading to apoptosis in HBECs as evidenced by TUNEL assay, COMET assay and DNA content assay. CSE stimulated NF-κB -DNA binding activity and up-regulated Bcl-XL protein in HBECs. Inhibition of NF-κB by the pharmacologic inhibitor curcumin (20 μM) or suppression of p65 by siRNA resulted in a significant increase in cell death in response to cigarette smoke exposure. Furthermore, cells lacking p65 were incapable of forming cellular colonies when these cells were exposed to CSE, while they behaved normally in the regular culture medium.Conclusion
The current study demonstrates that CSE activates NF-κB and up-regulates Bcl-XL through NF-kB activation in HBECs, and that CSE induces cell death in cells lacking p65. These results suggest that activation of NF-κB regulates cell survival following DNA damage by cigarette smoke in human bronchial epithelial cells. 相似文献7.

We have previously reported that cigarette smoke can induce DNA damage in human lung cells without leading to apoptosis or necrosis. In this study, we report that STAT3 is required for the survival of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) following cigarette smoke-induced DNA damage. Cigarette smoke extract (CSE) exposure increases STAT3 phosphorylation (Tyr 705) and DNA binding activity in HBECs. CSE also stimulates IL-6 release and mRNA expression. Anti-IL-6 neutralizing antibody partially blocks STAT3 activation and renders the cells sensitive to CSE-induced DNA damage. Suppression of STAT3 by siRNA results in severe DNA damage and cell death in response to CSE exposure. These findings suggest that STAT3 mediates HBEC survival in response to CSE-induced DNA damage, at least in part, through the IL-6/STAT3 signaling pathway. 相似文献

Diesel exhaust particle-exposed human bronchial epithelial cells induce dendritic cell maturation 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Increased exposure to air pollutants such as diesel exhaust particles (DEP) has been proposed as one mechanism to explain the rise in allergic disorders. However, the immunologic mechanisms by which DEP enhance allergic sensitization and asthma remain unclear. We hypothesized that DEP act as an adjuvant for immature dendritic cell (DC) maturation via its effect on airway epithelial cell-derived microenvironment for DC. Immature monocyte-derived DC (iMDDC) failed to undergo phenotypic (CD80, CD83, CD86) or functional (T cell activation) maturation in response to exposure to DEP (0.001-100 mug/ml). In contrast, primary cultures of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEC) treated with DEP induced iMDDC phenotypic maturation (2.6 +/- 0.1-fold increase in CD83 expression, n = 4, p < 0.05) and functional maturation (2.6 +/- 0.2-fold increase in T cell activation, n = 4, p < 0.05). Functional maturation of iMDDC was induced by conditioned medium derived from DEP-treated HBEC, and was inhibited in cultures with DEP-treated HBEC and blocking Abs against GM-CSF, or GM-CSF-targeted small interfering RNA. These data suggest that DEP induce Ag-independent DC maturation via epithelial cell-DC interactions mediated by HBEC-derived GM-CSF. Although additional signals may be required for polarization of DC, these data suggest a novel mechanism by which environmental pollutants alter airway immune responses. 相似文献

Peroxynitrite, formed by the reaction of nitric oxide (NO. ) with superoxide anions (O(2)(-).), may play a role in the pathophysiology of inflammation. The effects of 3-morpholinosydnonimine (SIN-1), a peroxynitrite generator, on the human bronchial epithelial cell line BEAS-2B, were examined. SIN-1 exposure resulted in cell death in a time- and dose-dependent manner. Depletion of intracellular glutathione increased the vulnerability of the cells. Pretreatment with Mn(III)tetrakis(N-methyl-4'-pyridyl)porphyrin (MnTMPyP) or hydroxocobalamin (HC), O(2)(-). and NO. scavengers, respectively, reduced significantly SIN-1-induced cell death (18.66 +/- 3.57 vs. 77.01 +/- 14.07 or 82.20 +/- 9.64, % cell viability SIN-1 vs. MnTMPyP or HC). Moreover, the mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPK) p44/42 (ERK), p38, and p54/46 (JNK) were also activated in a time- and concentration-dependent manner. PD-98059 and SB-239063, specific inhibitors of ERK and p38 MAPK pathways, failed to protect cells against 1 mM SIN-1. However, PD-98059 partially inhibited (60% cell survival) SIN-1 effects at < or =0.25 mM, and this was increased with the inclusion of SB-239063. Therefore, MAPKs may mediate signal transduction pathways induced by peroxynitrite in lung epithelial cells leading to cell death. 相似文献

Intracellular signaling molecules involved in vasoactive intestinal peptide-mediated wound healing in human bronchial epithelial cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), a non-adrenergic, non-cholinergic neuromediator, plays an important role in maintaining the bronchial tone of the airway and has anti-inflammatory properties. Recently, we reported that VIP enhances wound repair in human bronchial epithelial cells (HBEC). In the present study, we have identified the intracellular signaling molecules that are involved in VIP-mediated wound healing in HBEC. The effects of VIP on wound repair of HBEC were partially blocked by H-7 (a protein kinase C (PKC) inhibitor), W-7 (a calmodulin inhibitor), H-89 (a protein kinase A (PKA) inhibitor), and PD98059 (a specific extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) inhibitor). VIP-induced chemotactic migration was inhibited in the presence of W-7, H-89, PD98059 or H-7. H-7, W-7, and H-89 were also found to decrease VIP-induced expression of Ki67 as well as the proliferation index in HBEC. Furthermore, H-7, W-7, H-89, and PD98059 inhibited the expression of E-cd protein and mRNA induced by VIP. These results suggest that intracellular signaling molecules such as PKA, PKC, ERK, and calmodulin play important role in VIP-mediated wound healing of HBEC. 相似文献

Low concentrations of cigarette smoke induced DNA damage and repair without leading to apoptosis in human bronchial epithelial cells. Higher concentrations of cigarette smoke, however, could induce either apoptosis or necrosis. The current study demonstrated that 15% cigarette smoke extract (CSE) induced apoptosis as evidenced by DNA content profiling (17.8 ± 2.1% vs 10.2 ± 1.6% of control, p < 0.05), LIVE/DEAD staining (60.2 ± 2.1% viable cells in CSE-treated vs 86.5 ± 2.3% in control cells, p < 0.05), and COMET assay (24.3 ± 0.6% of Apoptotic Index in the cells treated with CSE vs 4.7 ± 0.6% of control, P < 0.05). Hepatocyte growth factor (HGF) significantly blocked the cigarette smoke-induced apoptosis as shown by DNA profiling (10.8 ± 1.5% of CSE + HGF, p < 0.05), LIVE/DEAD staining (78.5 ± 1.2% in CSE + HGF treated cells, p < 0.05), and COMET assay (Apoptotic Index: 10.0 ± 0.8% in CSE + HGF treated cells, P < 0.05). This protective effect of HGF on CSE-induced apoptosis was abolished by PI3K inhibitors, wortmannin and LY294002, and by introduction of the dominant negative AKT into the cells. Furthermore, CSE plus HGF could induce phosphorylation of AKT Thr 308 and the pro-apoptotic protein, BAD. These results suggest that HGF modulates cell survival in response to cigarette smoke exposure through the PI3K/AKT signaling pathway. 相似文献

We examined the localization of steroidogenic cells in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) testis during spermatogenesis by using polyclonal antibodies generated against rainbow trout cholesterol side-chain cleavage enzyme cytochrome P450 (P450scc), 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase (3β-HSD), 17α-hydroxylase/C17,21 lyase (P450c17), and aromatase cytochrome P450 (P450arom) as markers of steroid production. Since we had previously produced specific antibodies against 3β-HSD and P450arom, antibodies against oligopeptides corresponding to C-terminal sequences of P450scc and P450c17, predicted from rainbow trout P450scc and P450c17 cDNAs, were produced in this study. These two antibodies recognized 54-kDa (P450scc) and 59-kDa (P450c17) bands specifically in several steroidogenic organs, i.e., testis, ovary, and interrenal tissue (head kidney) in Western blots. Immunohistochemically, immunoreactive P450scc, P450c17, and 3β-HSD, but not P450arom, were found only in interstitial Leydig cells of immature and mature testes. Immunoreactive P450arom was not detected in either testis. This study suggests that Sertoli cells and germ cells of rainbow trout testis do not contain P450scc, P450c17, P450arom, or 3β-HSD. 相似文献

Background
Human rhinoviruses (RV), the most common triggers of acute asthma exacerbations, are considered not cytotoxic to the bronchial epithelium. Recent observations, however, have questioned this knowledge. The aim of this study was to evaluate the ability of RV to induce epithelial cytotoxicity and affect epithelial repair in-vitro.Methods
Monolayers of BEAS-2B bronchial epithelial cells, seeded at different densities were exposed to RV serotypes 1b, 5, 7, 9, 14, 16. Cytotoxicity was assessed chromatometrically. Epithelial monolayers were mechanically wounded, exposed or not to RV and the repopulation of the damaged area was assessed by image analysis. Finally epithelial cell proliferation was assessed by quantitation of proliferating cell nuclear antigen (PCNA) by flow cytometry.Results
RV1b, RV5, RV7, RV14 and RV16 were able to induce considerable epithelial cytotoxicity, more pronounced in less dense cultures, in a cell-density and dose-dependent manner. RV9 was not cytotoxic. Furthermore, RV infection diminished the self-repair capacity of bronchial epithelial cells and reduced cell proliferation.Conclusion
RV-induced epithelial cytotoxicity may become considerable in already compromised epithelium, such as in the case of asthma. The RV-induced impairment on epithelial proliferation and self-repair capacity may contribute to the development of airway remodeling. 相似文献16.

Aldehyde dehydrogenase 3A1 (ALDH3A1), an ALDH superfamily member, catalyzes the oxidation of reactive aldehydes, highly toxic components of cigarette smoke (CS). Even so, the role of ALDH3A1 in CS-induced cytotoxicity and DNA damage has not been examined. Among all of the ALDH superfamily members, ALDH3A1 mRNA levels showed the greatest induction in response to CS extract (CSE) exposure of primary human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs). ALDH3A1 protein accumulation was accompanied by increased ALDH enzymatic activity in CSE-exposed immortalized HBECs. The effects of overexpression or suppression of ALDH3A1 on CSE-induced cytotoxicity and DNA damage (γH2AX) were evaluated in cultured immortalized HBECs. Enforced expression of ALDH3A1 attenuated cytotoxicity and downregulated γH2AX. SiRNA-mediated suppression of ALDH3A1 blocked ALDH enzymatic activity and augmented cytotoxicity in CSE-exposed cells. Our results suggest that the availability of ALDH3A1 is important for cell survival against CSE in HBECs. 相似文献

While the adult murine lung utilizes multiple compartmentally restricted progenitor cells during homeostasis and repair, much less is known about the progenitor cells from the human lung. Translating the murine stem cell model to humans is hindered by anatomical differences between species. Here we show that human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) display characteristics of multipotent stem cells of the lung. These HBECs express markers indicative of several epithelial types of the adult lung when experimentally tested in cell culture. When cultured in three different three-dimensional (3D) systems, subtle changes in the microenvironment result in unique responses including the ability of HBECs to differentiate into multiple central and peripheral lung cell types. These new findings indicate that the adult human lung contains a multipotent progenitor cell whose differentiation potential is primarily dictated by the microenvironment. The HBEC system is not only important in understanding mechanisms for specific cell lineage differentiation, but also for examining changes that correlate with human lung diseases including lung cancer. 相似文献
