Endothelin-1 directs airway remodeling and hyper-reactivity in a murine asthma model
BACKGROUND The current paradigm describing asthma pathogenesis recognizes the central role of abnormal epithelial function in the generation and maintenance of the disease. However, the mechanisms responsible for the initiation of airway remodeling, which contributes to decreased lung function, remain elusive. Therefore, we aimed to determine the role of altered pulmonary gene expression in dis...
متن کاملEndotoxin contamination of ovalbumin suppresses murine immunologic responses and development of airway hyper-reactivity.
The reversible airway hyper-reactivity (AHR) of asthma is modeled by sensitizing and challenging mice with aerosolized ovalbumin. However, the C57BL/6 murine strain does not display the large increase in circulating IgG and IgE antibodies found in human atopy and asthma. We found that commercial ovalbumin was contaminated with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in amounts sufficient to fully activate end...
متن کاملChemokines and their role in airway hyper-reactivity
Airway hyper-reactivity is a characteristic feature of many inflammatory lung diseases and is defined as an exaggerated degree of airway narrowing. Chemokines and their receptors are involved in several pathological processes that are believed to contribute to airway hyper-responsiveness, including recruitment and activation of inflammatory cells, collagen deposition and airway wall remodeling....
متن کاملSphingosine 1-phosphate causes airway hyper-reactivity by rho-mediated myosin phosphatase inactivation.
In the present study, we investigated whether extracellular sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P) is involved in airway hyper-reactivity in bronchial asthma. The effects of S1P on the response to methacholine was examined in the fura-2-loaded strips of guinea pig tracheal smooth muscle using simultaneous recording of the isometric tension and the ratio of fluorescence intensities at 340 and 380 nm (F(3...
متن کاملN-lactoyl-amino acids are ubiquitous metabolites that originate from CNDP2-mediated reverse proteolysis of lactate and amino acids.
Despite technological advances in metabolomics, large parts of the human metabolome are still unexplored. In an untargeted metabolomics screen aiming to identify substrates of the orphan transporter ATP-binding cassette subfamily C member 5 (ABCC5), we identified a class of mammalian metabolites, N-lactoyl-amino acids. Using parallel protein fractionation in conjunction with shotgun proteomics ...
