Autophagy plays an essential role in cigarette smoke-induced expression of MUC5AC in airway epithelium.
Mucus hypersecretion is a common pathological feature of chronic airway inflammatory diseases including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, the molecular basis for this condition remains incompletely understood. We have previously demonstrated a critical role of autophagy in COPD pathogenesis through mediating apoptosis of lung epithelial cells. In this study, we aimed to inv...
متن کاملNeutrophil elastase induces MUC5AC gene expression in airway epithelium via a pathway involving reactive oxygen species.
Neutrophil-predominant airway inflammation and mucus obstruction of the airways are major pathologic features of chronic airway diseases, including cystic fibrosis and chronic bronchitis. Neutrophils release elastase, a serine protease that impairs mucociliary clearance and stimulates goblet cell metaplasia and mucin production. We previously reported that neutrophil elastase increases expressi...
متن کاملExpression of TGF-β3 in Isolated Fibroblasts from Foreskin
Background: The multifunctional transforming growth factor beta (TGF-β) is a glycoprotein that exists in three isoforms. TGF-β3 expression increases in fetal wound healing and reduces fibronectin and collagen I and III deposition, and also improves the architecture of the neodermis which is a combination of blood vessels and connective tissue during wound healing. Fibroblasts are key ...
متن کاملInhibition of TGF-alpha gene expression by vitamin A in airway epithelium.
The autocrine/paracrine growth mechanism has been implicated in the regulation of bronchial epithelial cell proliferation. By inhibiting the expression of the transforming growth factor-alpha (TGF-alpha) gene product, vitamin A is able to suppress the proliferation of tracheobronchial epithelial cells in culture. Similar repressions in TGF-alpha mRNA levels by retinol were observed in airway ex...
