چکیده
This study investigated the effects induced by co-culturing human primary basic fibroblasts (HPBFs) with 16-human bronchial epithelial cells (16-HBE) infected with respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), in particular the transformation of HPBFs into myofibroblasts and secretion of extracellular matrix proteins. HPBFs were co-cultured with 16-HBE cells infected with RSV and quantitatively analyzed. We constructed models of HPBFs co-cultured with 16-HBE cells that were either uninfected (control group) or infected with RSV (experimental group). Following initiation of co-cultures, HPBFs and supernatants were collected at 24-h intervals up to 120 h. Expression of α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA) was detected by indirect immunofluorescence and western blotting, while type I collagen (Col I) and fibronectin were analyzed by competitive enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays. After 72 h, α-SMA expression increased in HPBFs cultured with RSV-infected 16-HBE relative to uninfected controls, reaching its highest level at 96 h. Similarly, Col I secretion was also higher in HPBFs co-cultured with RSV-infected 16-HBE relative to uninfected controls; Col I secretion increased with time and reached its highest level at 120 h. HPBFs were transformed into myofibroblasts following co-culture with RSV-infected 16-HBE, which when combined with the observed increase in Col I secretion suggests that airway remodeling would then be promoted.

The cell response to virus infection and virus perturbation of that response is dynamic and is reflected by changes in cell susceptibility to infection. In this study, we evaluated the response of human epithelial cells to sequential infections with human respiratory syncytial virus strains A2 and B to determine if a primary infection with one strain will impact the ability of cells to be infec...

Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) causes acute exacerbations in COPD and asthma. RSV infects bronchial epithelial cells (HBE) that trigger RSV associated lung pathology. This study explores whether the phosphodiesterase 4 (PDE4) inhibitor Roflumilast N-oxide (RNO), alters RSV infection of well-differentiated HBE (WD-HBE) in vitro. WD-HBE were RSV infected in the presence or absence of RNO (0.1-...
