Expression of M3 acetylcholine receptor in asthmatic mice and bronchial airway remodeling prediction.
This study aimed to investigate the role of M3 acetylcholine receptor (M3-AChR) expression in airway remodeling. Additionally, we aimed to evaluate the effects of ipratropium bromide solution inhaled in an early phase of asthma on airway remodeling in ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized and challenged mice. Thirty BALB/c mice were divided into three groups, namely, control group (saline sensitized/chall...
متن کاملSubstrate stiffness influences TGF-β1-induced differentiation of bronchial fibroblasts into myofibroblasts in airway remodeling.
Chronic inflammation and remodeling of the bronchial wall are basic hallmarks of asthma. During the process of bronchial wall remodeling, inflammatory factors, such as transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1), are known to induce the differentiation of fibroblasts into myofibroblasts, which leads to excessive synthesis and secretion of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, thus thickening and stif...
متن کاملRole of histamine in airway remodeling of asthmatic guinea pig.
To investigate the role of histamine in airway remodeling, 50 healthy guinea pigs were divided into 5 groups: control group: nebulized inhalation of distilled water for 8 weeks; asthma model group: nebulized inhalation of ovalbumin (OVA) for 8 weeks after sensitization; continued asthma model group: nebulized inhalation of OVA for 14 weeks after sensitization; histamine group: nebulized inhalat...
متن کاملLithium Attenuates TGF-β1-Induced Fibroblasts to Myofibroblasts Transition in Bronchial Fibroblasts Derived from Asthmatic Patients
Bronchial asthma is a chronic disorder accompanied by phenotypic transitions of bronchial epithelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and fibroblasts. Human bronchial fibroblasts (HBFs) derived from patients with diagnosed asthma display predestination towards TGF-β-induced phenotypic switches. Since the interference between TGF-β and GSK-3β signaling contributes to pathophysiology of chronic lung d...
متن کاملUndifferentiated Bronchial Fibroblasts Derived from Asthmatic Patients Display Higher Elastic Modulus than Their Non-Asthmatic Counterparts
During asthma development, differentiation of epithelial cells and fibroblasts towards the contractile phenotype is associated with bronchial wall remodeling and airway constriction. Pathological fibroblast-to-myofibroblast transition (FMT) can be triggered by local inflammation of bronchial walls. Recently, we have demonstrated that human bronchial fibroblasts (HBFs) derived from asthmatic pat...
