Abstract
OBJECTIVE Optimal timing of continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) cessation in preterm infants remains undetermined. We hypothesised that CPAP extension compared with weaning to low-flow nasal cannula (NC) reduces intermittent hypoxaemia (IH) and respiratory instability in preterm infants meeting criteria to discontinue CPAP. DESIGN Single-centre randomised clinical trial. SETTING Level 4 neonatal intensive care unit. PATIENTS 36 infants <34 weeks' gestation receiving CPAP≤5 cmH2O and fraction of inspired oxygen (FiO2) ≤0.30 and meeting respiratory stability criteria. INTERVENTIONS Extended CPAP was compared with weaning to low-flow NC (0.5 L/kg/min with a limit of 1.0 L/min) for 24 hours. OUTCOMES The primary outcome was IH (number of episodes with SpO2<85% lasting ≥10 s). Secondary outcomes included: coefficient of variability of SpO2, proportion of time in various SpO2 ranges, episodes (≥10 s) with SpO2<80%, median cerebral and renal oxygenation, median effective FiO2, median transcutaneous carbon dioxide and bradycardia (<100/min for≥10 s). RESULTS The median (IQR) episodes of IH per 24-hour period was 20 (6-48) in the CPAP group and 76 (18-101) in the NC group (p=0.03). Infants continued on CPAP had less bradycardia, time with SpO2 <91% and <85%, and lower FiO2 (all p<0.05). There were no statistically significant differences in IH<80%, median transcutaneous carbon dioxide or median cerebral or renal oxygenation. CONCLUSION In preterm infants meeting respiratory stability criteria for CPAP cessation, extended CPAP decreased IH, bradycardia and other hypoxaemia measures compared with weaning to low-flow NC during the 24-hour intervention. TRIAL REGISTRATION NUMBER NCT04792099.

Abstract
Supplemental O2 remains a necessary intervention for many premature infants (<34 wk gestation). Even moderate hyperoxia (<60% O2) poses a risk for subsequent airway disease, thereby predisposing premature infants to pediatric asthma involving chronic inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), airway remodeling, and airflow obstruction. Moderate hyperoxia promotes AHR via effects on airway smooth muscle (ASM), a cell type that also contributes to impaired bronchodilation and remodeling (proliferation, altered extracellular matrix). Understanding mechanisms by which O2 initiates long-term airway changes in prematurity is critical for therapeutic advancements for wheezing disorders and asthma in babies and children. Immature or dysfunctional antioxidant systems in the underdeveloped lungs of premature infants thereby heightens susceptibility to oxidative stress from O2. The novel gasotransmitter hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is involved in antioxidant defense and has vasodilatory effects with oxidative stress. We previously showed that exogenous H2S exhibits bronchodilatory effects in human developing airway in the context of hyperoxia exposure. Here, we proposed that exogenous H2S would attenuate effects of O2 on airway contractility, thickness, and remodeling in mice exposed to hyperoxia during the neonatal period. Using functional [flexiVent; precision-cut lung slices (PCLS)] and structural (histology; immunofluorescence) analyses, we show that H2S donors mitigate the effects of O2 on developing airway structure and function, with moderate O2 and H2S effects on developing mouse airways showing a sex difference. Our study demonstrates the potential applicability of low-dose H2S toward alleviating the detrimental effects of hyperoxia on the premature lung.NEW & NOTEWORTHY Chronic airway disease is a short- and long-term consequence of premature birth. Understanding effects of O2 exposure during the perinatal period is key to identify targetable mechanisms that initiate and sustain adverse airway changes. Our findings show a beneficial effect of exogenous H2S on developing mouse airway structure and function with notable sex differences. H2S donors alleviate effects of O2 on airway hyperreactivity, contractility, airway smooth muscle thickness, and extracellular matrix deposition.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Asthma is a chronic lung disease influenced by environmental and inflammatory triggers and involving complex signaling pathways across resident airway cells such as epithelium, airway smooth muscle, fibroblasts, and immune cells. While our understanding of asthma pathophysiology is continually progressing, there is a growing realization that cellular microdomains play critical roles in mediating signaling relevant to asthma in the context of contractility and remodeling. Mechanosensitive pathways are increasingly recognized as important to microdomain signaling, with Piezo and transient receptor protein (TRP) channels at the plasma membrane considered important for converting mechanical stimuli into cellular behavior. Given their ion channel properties, particularly Ca2+ conduction, a question becomes whether and how mechanosensitive channels contribute to Ca2+ microdomains in airway cells relevant to asthma. AREAS COVERED Mechanosensitive TRP and Piezo channels regulate key Ca2+ regulatory proteins such as store operated calcium entry (SOCE) involving STIM and Orai channels, and sarcoendoplasmic (SR) mechanisms such as IP3 receptor channels (IP3Rs), and SR Ca2+ ATPase (SERCA) that are important in asthma pathophysiology including airway hyperreactivity and remodeling. EXPERT OPINION Physical and/or functional interactions between Ca2+ regulatory proteins and mechanosensitive channels such as TRP and Piezo can toward understanding asthma pathophysiology and identifying novel therapeutic approaches.

Abstract
Chronic airway diseases, such as wheezing and asthma, remain significant sources of morbidity and mortality in the pediatric population. This is especially true for preterm infants who are impacted both by immature pulmonary development as well as disproportionate exposure to perinatal insults that may increase the risk of developing airway disease. Chronic pediatric airway disease is characterized by alterations in airway structure (remodeling) and function (increased airway hyperresponsiveness), similar to adult asthma. One of the most common perinatal risk factors for development of airway disease is respiratory support in the form of supplemental oxygen, mechanical ventilation, and/or CPAP. While clinical practice currently seeks to minimize oxygen exposure to decrease the risk of bronchopulmonary dysplasia (BPD), there is mounting evidence that lower levels of oxygen may carry risk for development of chronic airway, rather than alveolar disease. In addition, stretch exposure due to mechanical ventilation or CPAP may also play a role in development of chronic airway disease. Here, we summarize the current knowledge of the impact of perinatal oxygen and mechanical respiratory support on the development of chronic pediatric lung disease, with particular focus on pediatric airway disease. We further highlight mechanisms that could be explored as potential targets for novel therapies in the pediatric population.

[PMID: 36169192 DOI: 10.1002/kjm2.12601] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/31/2022] [Revised: 07/31/2022] [Accepted: 08/18/2022] [Indexed: 12/15/2022] Open
Abstract
The role of the calcium-sensitive receptor (CaSR) was assessed in a juvenile mouse model of asthma induced by ovalbumin (OVA). The experiment was divided into normal control, OVA, and OVA +2.5/5 mg/kg NPS2143 (a CaSR antagonist) groups. OVA induction was performed in all groups except the normal control, followed by assessing airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and lung pathological changes. Serum OVA-specific IgE and IgG1 were detected with an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), and inflammatory cells were counted in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction, ELISA, and western blotting were performed to detect gene and protein expression. NPS2143 improved the OVA-induced AHR in mice, and AHR was higher in the OVA +2.5 mg/kg NPS2143 group than in the OVA +5 mg/kg NPS2143 group. Furthermore, NPS2143 reduced the production of OVA-specific IgE and IgG1 in serum and the number of eosinophils and lymphocytes in BALF in OVA mice with reduced CaSR expression in lung tissues. Besides, OVA-induced mice exhibited peribronchial and perivascular inflammatory cell infiltration, which was accompanied by severe goblet cell hyperplasia/hyperplasia and airway mucus hypersecretion. Furthermore, these mice exhibited increased levels of Interleukin (IL)-5, IL-13, MCP-1, and eotaxin, which were alleviated by NPS2143. The 5 mg/kg NPS2143 showed more effective than the 2.5 mg/kg treatment. CaSR expression was elevated in the lung tissues of OVA-induced asthmatic juvenile mice, whereas the CaSR antagonist NPS2143 reduced AHR and attenuated the inflammatory response in OVA-induced juvenile mice, possibly exerting therapeutic effects on childhood asthma.
