INTRODUCTION We have previously established a link between impaired phagocytic capacity and deregulated S1P signaling in alveolar macrophages from COPD subjects. We hypothesize that this defect may include a disruption of epithelial-macrophage crosstalk via Spns2-mediated intercellular S1P signaling. METHODS Primary alveolar macrophages and bronchial epithelial cells from COPD subjects and co...

BACKGROUND Acute interstitial pneumonia is a rare interstitial lung disease that rapidly progresses to respiratory failure or death. Several studies showed that myofibroblast plays an important role in the evolution of diffuse alveolar damage, which is the typical feature of acute interstitial pneumonia. However, no evidence exists whether alveolar epithelial cells are an additional source of m...

Cysteinyl leukotrienes are increased during acute lung injury in animals and humans. In this study, we determined the effect of leukotriene D4 (LTD4) on the function of Na,K-ATPase in alveolar epithelial cells and on alveolar fluid clearance in rat lungs. LTD4 (1 x 10(-7) M) increased Na,K-ATPase activity at 1 and 5 minutes by 14% (p < 0.05) and 31% (p < 0.001), respectively, in A549 alveolar e...

Elevated CO(2) levels (hypercapnia) occur in patients with respiratory diseases and impair alveolar epithelial integrity, in part, by inhibiting Na,K-ATPase function. Here, we examined the role of c-Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) in CO(2) signaling in mammalian alveolar epithelial cells as well as in diptera, nematodes and rodent lungs. In alveolar epithelial cells, elevated CO(2) levels rapidly i...

The ability to breathe air represents a fundamental step in vertebrate evolution that was accompanied by several anatomical and physiological adaptations. The morphology of the air-blood barrier is highly conserved within air-breathing vertebrates. It is formed by three different plies, which are represented by the alveolar epithelium, the basal lamina, and the endothelial layer. Besides these ...
