Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex human disease likely influenced by multiple genes, cigarette smoking, and gene-by-smoking interactions, but only severe alpha 1-antitrypsin deficiency is a proven genetic risk factor for COPD. Prior linkage analyses in the Boston Early-Onset COPD Study have demonstrated significant linkage to a key intermediate phenotype of COPD on chromosome 2q. We integrated results from murine lung development and human COPD gene-expression microarray studies with human COPD linkage results on chromosome 2q to prioritize candidate-gene selection, thus identifying SERPINE2 as a positional candidate susceptibility gene for COPD. Immunohistochemistry demonstrated expression of serpine2 protein in mouse and human adult lung tissue. In family-based association testing of 127 severe, early-onset COPD pedigrees from the Boston Early-Onset COPD Study, we observed significant association with COPD phenotypes and 18 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the SERPINE2 gene. Association of five of these SNPs with COPD was replicated in a case-control analysis, with cases from the National Emphysema Treatment Trial and controls from the Normative Aging Study. Family-based and case-control haplotype analyses supported similar regions of association within the SERPINE2 gene. When significantly associated SNPs in these haplotypic regions were included as covariates in linkage models, LOD score attenuation was observed most markedly in a smokers-only linkage model (LOD 4.41, attenuated to 1.74). After the integration of murine and human microarray data to inform candidate-gene selection, we observed significant family-based association and independent replication of association in a case-control study, suggesting that SERPINE2 is a COPD-susceptibility gene and is likely influenced by gene-by-smoking interaction. 相似文献

Background
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by the frequent association of disease outside the lung. The objective of this study was to determine the presence of biomechanical gait abnormalities in COPD patients compared to healthy controls while well rested and without rest.Methods
Patients with COPD (N = 17) and aged-matched, healthy controls (N = 21) walked at their self-selected pace down a 10-meter walkway while biomechanical gait variables were collected. A one-minute rest was given between each of the five collected trials to prevent tiredness (REST condition). Patients with COPD then walked at a self-selected pace on a treadmill until the onset of self-reported breathlessness or leg tiredness. Subjects immediately underwent gait analysis with no rest between each of the five collected trials (NO REST condition). Statistical models with and without covariates age, gender, and smoking history were used.Results
After adjusting for covariates, COPD patients demonstrated more ankle power absorption in mid-stance (P = 0.006) than controls during both conditions. Both groups during NO REST demonstrated increased gait speed (P = 0.04), stride length (P = 0.03), and peak hip flexion (P = 0.04) with decreased plantarflexion moment (P = 0.04) and increased knee power absorption (P = 0.04) as compared to REST. A significant interaction revealed that peak ankle dorsiflexion moment was maintained from REST to NO REST for COPD but increased for controls (P < 0.01). Stratifying by disease severity did not alter these findings, except that step width decreased in NO REST as compared to REST (P = 0.01). Standardized effect sizes of significant effects varied from 0.5 to 0.98.Conclusions
Patients with COPD appear to demonstrate biomechanical gait changes at the ankle as compared to healthy controls. This was seen not only in increased peak ankle power absorption during no rest but was also demonstrated by a lack of increase in peak ankle dorsiflexion moment from the REST to the NO REST condition as compared to the healthy controls. Furthermore, a wider step width has been associated with fall risk and this could account for the increased incidence of falls in patients with COPD. 相似文献3.

YKL-40 is a chitin-binding protein that is elevated in patients with various inflammatory conditions associated with ongoing remodeling. We investigated whether the levels of YKL-40 were up-regulated in the circulation and the airways of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and whether it promoted the production of inflammatory mediators from macrophages. Serum, bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL), bronchial biopsies, lung tissue specimens, and alveolar macrophages from never-smokers (n = 15), smokers without COPD (n = 20), and smokers with COPD (n = 30) were assessed for YKL-40 levels and immunolocalization. In addition, YKL-40-induced mediator release from alveolar macrophages was examined. We found that smokers with COPD had elevated levels of YKL-40 in serum (p = 0.027) and BAL (p = 0.007), more YKL-40-positive cells in bronchial biopsies (p = 0.03), and a greater proportion of alveolar macrophages expressing YKL-40 than smokers without COPD or never-smokers. YKL-40 levels in serum and BAL were associated with airflow obstruction (pre-beta(2) agonist forced expiratory volume in 1 s, r(s) = -0.3892, p = 0.0072 and r(s) = -0.5491, p < 0.0001, respectively) and impaired diffusion lung capacity (transfer factor of the lung for carbon monoxide, r(s) = -0.4667, p = 0.002 and r(s) = -0.3854, p = 0.0045, respectively). TNF-alpha stimulated YKL-40 synthesis in alveolar macrophages from smokers with COPD, and exposure of these cells to YKL-40 promoted the release of IL-8, MCP-1, MIP-1alpha, and metalloproteinase-9. We conclude that YKL-40 is up-regulated in COPD, in which it may contribute to tissue inflammation and remodeling by sustaining the synthesis of proinflammatory and fibrogenic chemokines and of metalloproteinases by alveolar macrophages. 相似文献

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a disorder which encompasses not only morphological changes in parenchyma, central and peripheral airways but also in structural and functional changes of pulmonary vessels. The role of angiogenic factors leading to abnormal pulmonary vessel remodeling remains unclear. We have investigated a cytokine vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) known to be involved in angiogenesis, and its soluble receptors (sVEGF R1, sVEGF R2) in the serum of 20 patients with mild COPD and 10 patients with very severe COPD, using sensitive enzyme-linked immunoassays. The control group consisted of 10 healthy volunteers. We found that the concentration of VEGF in the serum of patients with mild COPD was significantly higher (665.31 +/- 102.20 pg/mL) in comparison to the control group (318.94 +/- 51.40 pg/mL; p < 0.05), and there was a strong negative correlation with FEV1 (r = -0.859; p < 0.001). Additionally, the level of sVEGF R1 in the serum of patients with very severe COPD was also significantly higher (96.60 +/- 26.85 pg/mL) than in the control (36.01 +/- 3.29 pg/mL; p < 0.05) and a positive correlation between the serum level of sVEGF R1 and FEV1 was found (r = 0.748; p < 0.01). Moreover, we observed an insignificant increase of sVEGF R2 in the serum of patients with mild COPD and those with very severe COPD. These results suggest that VEGF and sVEGF R1 receptor are involved in the development of abnormal pulmonary vascular remodelling in patients with COPD. 相似文献

Background
The role of culture-independent techniques (galactomannan, (1-3)-β-d-glucan) in the early diagnosis of invasive fungal diseases (IFD) is well assessed in hematological patients, but there are no clear conclusions in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Aims
To study the usefulness of nonculture-based techniques in the diagnosis of IFD in COPD-patients at risk for IFD.Methods
A prospective observational study based on monitoring COPD patients at risk for IFD during 2007–2010 was carried out. The presence of galactomannan, (1-3)-β-d-glucan and an indirect immunofluorescence of Candida albicans germ tube specific antibodies (CAGTA) were performed.Results
Among 43 COPD patients, 16 (37.2%) were diagnosed with IFD: seven cases were proven IFD (five invasive candidemia – IC, one invasive aspergillosis – IA and a rhinocerebral zygomycosis) and nine probable IFD (seven IA and two IC). In the diagnosis of IC and IA, the negative predictive value (NPV) of (1-3)-β-d-glucan was 100%. Regarding CAGTA in IC, NPV was 96.2%. Finally, NPV of galactomannan in IA was 91.2%. The area under the ROC curve for (1-3)-β-d-glucan in IC and for the rest of the IFD cases was 0.86 (95% CI, 0.79–0.93) and 0.60 (95% CI, 0.43–0.77), for CAGTA in IC was 0.83 (95% CI, 0.74–0.91) and for galactomannan in IA was 0.71 (95% CI, 0.56–0.85). Positive (1-3)-β-d-glucan preceded the growth of Candida (average of 1.7 days) in blood culture.Conclusions
In COPD patients at risk for IFD the assayed techniques are especially useful to rule out the presence of IFD. 相似文献7.

The present study investigated whether development or maintenance of a relatively increased fat mass in normal-weight patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), despite periods of weight loss, may be related to impaired beta-adrenoceptor-mediated responses in lipid utilization and thermogenesis. Nine COPD patients and nine healthy controls (body mass index: 23.0 +/- 1.3 vs. 23.8 +/- 0.6 kg/m2, not significant; fat mass: 19.0 +/- 2.1 vs. 11.9 +/- 1.5 kg, P < 0.01) received consecutive 30-min infusions of 6, 12, and 24 ng x kg fat free mass(-1) x min(-1) isoproterenol. During beta-adrenergic stimulation, nonesterified fatty acid levels increased significantly less in COPD patients (P < 0.001). Respiratory exchange ratio decreased similarly in both groups, indicating a similar change in the rate of lipid to carbohydrate oxidation. Energy expenditure increased similarly in both groups during beta-adrenergic stimulation. However, because plasma isoproterenol concentrations were significantly higher in COPD patients, thermogenesis related to isoproterenol concentration was significantly reduced in this group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, beta-adrenoceptor-mediated lipolysis and thermogenesis are impaired in COPD patients. This may play a role in the development or maintenance of their relatively increased fat mass. 相似文献

Background
The reticular basement membrane (Rbm) in smokers and especially smokers with COPD is fragmented with "clefts" containing cells staining for the collagenase matrix-metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) and fibroblast protein, S100A4. These cells are also present in the basal epithelium. Such changes are likely hallmarks of epithelial mesenchymal transition (EMT). We aimed to confirm the epithelial origin of these Rbm cells, and to exclude potential confounding by infiltrating inflammatory cells.Methods
Endobronchial biopsy sections from 17 COPD current smokers, with documented Rbm splitting and cellularity were stained for neutrophil elastase (neutrophil marker), CD68 (macrophage/mature fibroblasts), CD4+/CD8+ T lymphocytes, CD19 (B-cells), CD11c (dendritic cells/inflammatory cells), and S100 (Langerhans cells). The number of cells in the Rbm and epithelium staining for these "inflammatory" cell markers were then compared to numbers staining for S100A4, "a documented EMT epitope". Slides were double stained for S100A4 and cytokeratin(s).Results
In the basal epithelium significantly more cells stained for S100A4 compared to infiltrating macrophages, fibroblasts or immune cells: median, 26 (21.3 - 37.3) versus 0 (0 - 9.6) per mm, p < 0.003. Markedly more S100A4 staining cells were also observed in the Rbm compared to infiltrating macrophages, neutrophils, fibroblasts or immune cells or any sub-type: 58 (37.3 - 92.6) versus 0 (0 - 4.8) cells/mm Rbm, p < 0.003. Cells in the basal epithelium 26 (21.3 - 37.3) per mm) and Rbm (5.9 (2.3 - 13.8) per mm) frequently double stained for both cytokeratin and S100A4.Conclusions
These data provide additional support for active EMT in COPD airways. 相似文献10.

Muscle atrophy in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with reduced exercise tolerance, muscle strength, and survival. The molecular mechanisms leading to muscle atrophy in COPD remain elusive. The mitogen-activated protein kinases (MAPKs) such as p38 MAPK and ERK 1/2 can increase levels of MAFbx/Atrogin and MuRF1, which are specifically involved in muscle protein degradation and atrophy. Our aim was to investigate the level of activation of p38 MAPK, ERK 1/2, and JNK in the quadriceps of patients with COPD. A biopsy of the quadriceps was obtained in 18 patients with COPD as well as in 9 healthy controls. We evaluated the phosphorylated as well as total protein levels of p38 MAPK, ERK 1/2, and JNK as well as MAFbx/Atrogin and MuRF1 in these muscle samples. The corresponding mRNA expression was also assessed by RT-PCR. Ratios of phosphorylated to total level of p38 MAPK (P = 0.02) and ERK 1/2 (P = 0.01) were significantly elevated in patients with COPD compared with controls. Moreover, protein levels of MAFbx/Atrogin showed a tendency to be greater in patients with COPD (P = 0.08). mRNA expression of p38 MAPK (P = 0.03), ERK 1/2 (P = 0.02), and MAFbx/Atrogin (P = 0.04) were significantly elevated in patients with COPD. In addition, phosphorylated-to-total p38 MAPK ratio (Pearson's r = -0.45; P < 0.05) and phosphorylated-to-total ERK 1/2 ratio (Pearson's r = -0.47; P < 0.05) were negatively associated with the mid-thigh muscle cross-sectional area. These data support the hypothesis that the MAPKs might play a role in the development of muscle atrophy in COPD. 相似文献

An enhanced proteolysis of lung interstitium is key event in the pathogenesis of emphysema, a major constituent of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. To assess whether urinary desmosine and/or hydroxyproline may be used as a marker of lung destruction we studied urinary excretions of these products in 20 patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and in 19 appropriate controls in 24h urine collection samples. For desmosine measurements, we developed a new indirect competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. The extent of emphysema was measured in high resolution computed tomography (CT) scans, by considering lung area with CT numbers <-950 Hounsfield units (HU).Urinary desmosine excretion was significantly higher in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease than in controls (294+/-121 microg versus 183+/-93 microg, P=0.003), and was unrelated with both age and smoking habits. In patients with no evidence or only mild emphysema, desmosine excretion values were significantly higher (P=0.006) than those of patients with moderate to severe emphysema. In patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, urinary hydroxyproline excretion was positively correlated with urinary desmosine excretion but on the average, it was not different from that of controls.These data indicate that urinary desmosine is a sensitive biological marker of lung elastin catabolism. The relatively low levels of urinary desmosine observed in patients with severe emphysema may be accounted for a decrease in elastin catabolism due to reduced lung elastin mass. Urinary desmosine may be used to identify subjects at risk of developing emphysema and to assess the efficacy of therapeutic interventions. 相似文献

A series of 31 patients with various degrees of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease underwent right heart catheterization using flow-directed thermodilution catheters. Both rest and supine exercise values were obtained. The patients were divided into two groups on the basis of their reduction in forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1). In patients with FEV1 values of greater than or equal to 1,300 ml (group 1), the arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) did not significantly change with exercise, while in patients with FEV1 of less than or equal to 1,200 ml (group 2) PaO2 significantly (p less than 0.05) fell in response to exercise. In group 2, a significant increase of total pulmonary resistance (TPR) with exercise was found (p less than 0.01). Pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) remained unchanged in both subgroups. It is suggested that the value of PVR for subgroup 2 is artificially low because an important variable, namely pulmonary artery wedge pressure, is influenced by alveolar pressure in patients with an uneven distribution of perfusion and ventilation at pulmonary venous pressures lower than alveolar pressure. The steeper slope of the pressure-flow relationship in these patients is probably due to an increased vascular tone caused by chronic hypoxia at rest and further fall of PaO2 and rise of arterial CO2 partial pressure in response to exercise. 相似文献

Background
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by expiratory flow limitation, causing air trapping and lung hyperinflation. Hyperinflation leads to reduced exercise tolerance and poor quality of life in COPD patients. Total lung capacity (TLC) is an indicator of hyperinflation particularly in subjects with moderate-to-severe airflow obstruction. The aim of our study was to identify genetic variants associated with TLC in COPD.Methods
We performed genome-wide association studies (GWASs) in white subjects from three cohorts: the COPDGene Study; the Evaluation of COPD Longitudinally to Identify Predictive Surrogate Endpoints (ECLIPSE); and GenKOLS (Bergen, Norway). All subjects were current or ex-smokers with at least moderate airflow obstruction, defined by a ratio of forced expiratory volume in 1 second to forced vital capacity (FEV1/FVC) <0.7 and FEV1 < 80% predicted on post-bronchodilator spirometry. TLC was calculated by using volumetric computed tomography scans at full inspiration (TLCCT). Genotyping in each cohort was completed, with statistical imputation of additional markers. To find genetic variants associated with TLCCT, linear regression models were used, with adjustment for age, sex, pack-years of smoking, height, and principal components for genetic ancestry. Results were summarized using fixed-effect meta-analysis.Results
Analysis of a total of 4,543 COPD subjects identified one genome-wide significant locus on chromosome 5p15.2 (rs114929486, β = 0.42L, P = 4.66 × 10−8).Conclusions
In COPD, TLCCT was associated with a SNP in dynein, axonemal, heavy chain 5 (DNAH5), a gene in which genetic variants can cause primary ciliary dyskinesia. DNAH5 could have an effect on hyperinflation in COPD.Electronic supplementary material

Proteinases in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease 总被引:10,自引:0,他引:10
Shapiro SD 《Biochemical Society transactions》2002,30(2):98-102
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major health problem worldwide, and we have little specific therapy to offer these patients. One potential strategy to limit loss of lung function in COPD would be to inhibit matrix-degrading proteinases. Several serine proteinases and matrix metalloproteinases are expressed in association with COPD in humans. Application of gene-targeted macrophage elastase and neutrophil elastase to a mouse model of cigarette-smoke-induced emphysema has uncovered roles for these proteinases in airspace enlargement, and has identified many interactions between these proteolytic systems. 相似文献

Background
There is a need for novel anti-inflammatory therapies to treat COPD. The liver X receptor (LXR) is a nuclear hormone receptor with anti-inflammatory properties.Methods
We investigated LXR gene and protein expression levels in alveolar macrophages and whole lung tissue from COPD patients and controls, the effect of LXR activation on the suppression of inflammatory mediators from LPS stimulated COPD alveolar macrophages, and the effect of LXR activation on the induction of genes associated with alternative macrophage polarisation.Results
The levels of LXR mRNA were significantly increased in whole lung tissue extracts in COPD patients and smokers compared to non-smokers. The expression of LXR protein was significantly increased in small airway epithelium and alveolar epithelium in COPD patients compared to controls. No differences in LXR mRNA and protein levels were observed in alveolar macrophages between patient groups. The LXR agonist GW3965 significantly induced the expression of the LXR dependent genes ABCA1 and ABCG1 in alveolar macrophage cultures. In LPS stimulated alveolar macrophages, GW3965 suppressed the production of CXCL10 and CCL5, whilst stimulating IL-10 production.Conclusions
GW3965 did not significantly suppress the production of TNFα, IL-1β, or CXCL8. Our major finding is that LXR activation has anti-inflammatory effects on CXC10, CCL5 and IL-10 production from alveolar macrophages. 相似文献19.

Background
Impaired skeletal muscle regeneration could contribute to the progression of muscle atrophy in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).Methods
Satellite cells and myogenesis-related proteins were compared between healthy subjects and patients with COPD, with or without muscle atrophy. Satellite cells were isolated and cultured to assess their proliferative and differentiation aptitudes.Results
Although satellite cell numbers in muscle samples were similar between groups, the proportion of muscle fibers with central nuclei was increased in COPD. In muscle homogenates, increased expression of MyoD and decreased expression of myogenin and MRF4 were observed in COPD. In cultured satellite cells of patients with COPD, increased protein content was observed for Pax7, Myf5 (proliferation phase) and myogenin (differentiation phase) while myosin heavy chain protein content was significantly lower during differentiation.Conclusion
In COPD, the number of central nuclei was increased in muscle fibers suggesting a greater number of attempts to regenerate muscle tissue than in healthy subjects. Myogenesis signaling was also altered in muscle homogenates in patients with COPD and there was a profound reduction in the differentiation potential in this population as indicated by a reduced ability to incorporate myosin heavy chain into newly formed myotubes. Collectively, these results indicate that skeletal muscle regenerative capacity termination is impaired in COPD and could contribute to the progression of muscle atrophy progression in this population. 相似文献20.
