Abstract
The alveolar epithelium is covered by a non-cellular layer consisting of an aqueous hypophase topped by pulmonary surfactant, a lipo-protein mixture with surface-active properties. Exposure to cigarette smoke (CS) affects lung physiology and is linked to the development of several diseases. The macroscopic effects of CS are determined by several types of cell and molecular dysfunction, which, among other consequences, lead to surfactant alterations. The purpose of this review is to summarize the published studies aimed at uncovering the effects of CS on both the lipid and protein constituents of surfactant, discussing the molecular mechanisms involved in surfactant homeostasis that are altered by CS. Although surfactant homeostasis has been the topic of several studies and some molecular pathways can be deduced from an analysis of the literature, it remains evident that many aspects of the mechanisms of action of CS on surfactant homeostasis deserve further investigation.

Abstract
Pulmonary surfactant is a crucial and dynamic lung structure whose primary functions are to reduce alveolar surface tension and facilitate breathing. Though disruptions in surfactant homeostasis are typically thought of in the context of respiratory distress and premature infants, many lung diseases have been noted to have significant surfactant abnormalities. Nevertheless, preclinical and clinical studies of pulmonary disease too often overlook the potential contribution of surfactant alterations - whether in quantity, quality or composition - to disease pathogenesis and symptoms. In inflammatory lung diseases, whether these changes are cause or consequence remains a subject of debate. This review will outline 1) the importance of pulmonary surfactant in the maintenance of respiratory health, 2) the diseases associated with primary surfactant dysregulation, 3) the surfactant abnormalities observed in inflammatory pulmonary diseases and, finally, 4) the available research on the interplay between surfactant homeostasis and smoking-associated lung disease. From these published studies, we posit that changes in surfactant integrity and composition contribute more considerably to chronic inflammatory pulmonary diseases and that more work is required to determine the mechanisms underlying these alterations and their potential treatability.

Abstract
Fluid interfaces, i.e. the boundary layer of two liquids or a liquid and a gas, play a vital role in physiological processes as diverse as visual perception, oral health and taste, lipid metabolism, and pulmonary breathing. These fluid interfaces exhibit a complex composition, structure, and rheology tailored to their individual physiological functions. Advances in interfacial thin film techniques have facilitated the analysis of such complex interfaces under physiologically relevant conditions. This allowed new insights on the origin of their physiological functionality, how deviations may cause disease, and has revealed new therapy strategies. Furthermore, the interactions of physiological fluid interfaces with exogenous substances is crucial for understanding certain disorders and exploiting drug delivery routes to or across fluid interfaces. Here, we provide an overview on fluid interfaces with physiological relevance, namely tear films, interfacial aspects of saliva, lipid droplet digestion and storage in the cell, and the functioning of lung surfactant. We elucidate their structure-function relationship, discuss diseases associated with interfacial composition, and describe therapies and drug delivery approaches targeted at fluid interfaces. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: Fluid interfaces are inherent to all living organisms and play a vital role in various physiological processes. Examples are the eye tear film, saliva, lipid digestion & storage in cells, and pulmonary breathing. These fluid interfaces exhibit complex interfacial compositions and structures to meet their specific physiological function. We provide an overview on physiological fluid interfaces with a focus on interfacial phenomena. We elucidate their structure-function relationship, discuss diseases associated with interfacial composition, and describe novel therapies and drug delivery approaches targeted at fluid interfaces. This sets the scene for ocular, oral, or pulmonary surface engineering and drug delivery approaches.

Abstract
Clinical research in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been hampered by the lack of validated blood biomarkers. The ideal COPD biomarker would have the following characteristics: (1) it would be a lung specific protein that could be assayed in blood; (2) it would change with disease severity or during exacerbations; (3) it would be specific for COPD; and would be responsive to change with effective treatments. One such candidate is the lung specific protein surfactant protein D (SP-D). In this review, we discuss the evidence supporting SP-D as a COPD biomarker.

Abstract
Background Pulmonary surfactant D (SP-D) has important regulatory functions for innate immunity and has been implicated as a biomarker for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). We hypothesized that COPD patients would have reduced bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) fluid SP-D levels compared to healthy smoking and non-smoking controls. Methods BAL SP-D and phospholipids were quantified and corrected for dilution in 110 subjects (65 healthy never smokers, 23 smokers with normal spirometry, and 22 smokers with COPD). Results BAL SP-D was highest in never smokers (mean 51.9 μg/mL ± 7.1 μg/mL standard error) compared to both smokers with normal spirometry (16.0 μg/mL ± 11.8 μg/mL) and subjects with COPD (19.1 μg/mL ± 12.9 μg/mL; P < 0.0001). Among smokers with COPD, BAL SP-D correlated significantly with FEV1% predicted (R = 0.43; P < 0.05); however, the strongest predictor of BAL SP-D was smoking status. BAL SP-D levels were lowest in current smokers (12.8 μg/mL ± 11.0 μg/mL), intermediate in former smokers (25.2 μg/mL ± 14.2 μg/mL; P < 0.008), and highest in never smokers. BAL phospholipids were also lowest in current smokers (6.5 nmol ± 1.5 nmol), intermediate in former smokers (13.1 nmol ± 2.1 nmol), and highest in never smokers (14.8 nmol ± 1.1 nmol; P < 0.0001). Conclusions These data suggest that smokers, and especially current smokers, exhibit significantly reduced BAL SP-D and phospholipids compared to nonsmokers. Our findings may help better explain the mechanism that leads to the rapid progression of disease and increased incidence of infection in smokers.

Abstract
This study was to evaluate the effects of cigarette smoke constituents upon type II pneumocyte surfactant production in vitro, and how vitamins A and E may alter the response. Freshly isolated type II pneumocytes from Sprague-Dawley rats were incubated 20 h in medium with fetal bovine serum that was or was not treated with cigarette smoke. The number of adherent cells was inversely related to the dose of smoke or benzo(a)pyrene. Despite the decreased number of treated cells, the total amount of surfactant per culture well was unchanged, whereas surfactant production per cell was significantly increased (P<0.05). Vitamin A concentration was significantly (P<0.05) lower in the smoke-treated serum compared with untreated serum. When vitamin A or E was added to the cigarette smoke-treated serum, cell adherence and surfactant production returned to control values. In conclusion, cigarette smoke constituents or benzo(a)pyrene alone decreased the number of adherent type II pneumocytes, but did not alter surfactant amounts because of an increased production of surfactant per cell. Type II pneumocytes seem to adjust surfactant production dependent upon the number of type II pneumocytes to produce it and vitamin A or E enhance cell attachment in the presence of the smoke toxins.

Abstract
Cigarette smoking, one of the most pervasive habits in society, presents many well established health risks. While lung cancer is probably the most common and well documented disease associated with tobacco exposure, it is becoming clear from recent research that many other diseases are causally related to smoking. Whether from direct smoking or inhaling environmental tobacco smoke (ETS), termed secondhand smoke, the cells of the respiratory tissues and the lining pulmonary surfactant are the first body tissues to be directly exposed to the many thousands of toxic chemicals in tobacco. Considering the vast surface area of the lung and the extreme attenuation of the blood-air barrier, it is not surprising that this organ is the primary route for exposure, not just to smoke but to most environmental contaminants. Recent research has shown that the pulmonary surfactant, a complex mixture of phospholipids and proteins, is the first site of defense against particulates or gas components of smoke. However, it is not clear what effect smoke has on the surfactant. Most studies have demonstrated that smoking reduces bronchoalveolar lavage phospholipid levels. Some components of smoke also appear to have a direct detergent-like effect on the surfactant while others appear to alter cycling or secretion. Ultimately these effects are reflected in changes in the dynamics of the surfactant system and, clinically in changes in lung mechanics. Similarly, exposure of the developing fetal lung through maternal smoking results in postnatal alterations in lung mechanics and higher incidents of wheezing and coughing. Direct exposure of developing lung to nicotine induces changes suggestive of fetal stress. Furthermore, identification of nicotinic receptors in fetal lung airways and corresponding increases in airway connective tissue support a possible involvement of nicotine in postnatal asthma development. Finally, at the level of the alveoli of the lung, colocalization of nicotinic receptors and surfactant-specific protein in alveolar cells is suggestive of a role in surfactant metabolism. Further research is needed to determine the mechanistic effects of smoke and its components on surfactant function and, importantly, the effects of smoke components on the developing pulmonary system.

Abstract
Pulmonary infection leading to pneumonia is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide. Airborne particles have been associated with pneumonia through epidemiological research, but the mechanisms by which particles affect the incidence of pneumonia are not well established. The purpose of this review is to examine the potential of animal models to improve our understanding of the mechanisms by which inhaled particles might affect the incidence and resolution of pulmonary infection. The pathogenesis of pneumonia in most animal models differs from that in humans because humans frequently have underlying diseases that predispose them to infection with relatively low doses of pathogens. Normal, healthy animals lack the underlying pathology often found in humans and clear bacteria and viruses rapidly from their lungs. To overcome this, animals are administered large inocula of pathogens, are treated with agents that cause mucosal lesions, or are treated with immunosuppressive drugs. Alternatively, pathogenic bacteria are protected from phagocytosis by encasing them in agar. No one animal model will replicate a human disease in its entirety, and the choice of model depends upon how well the animal infection mimics the particular human response being examined. The advantages and disadvantages of animal models in current use for bacterial and viral infections important in the etiology of human pneumonia are reviewed in detail. Considerable data indicate that prior exposure to particles compromises the ability of experimental animals to resolve a subsequent infection. In addition, information is available on the effects of particle exposure on various portions of respiratory defense including phagocytic function, ciliary movement, inflammation, and antibody response in the absence of infection. In contrast, little research to date has examined the consequences of particle exposure on the host defense mechanisms of animals already infected or on their ability to resolve their infection.

Abstract
Tobacco smoke (TS) is a potent source of oxidants and oxidative stress is an important mechanism by which TS exerts its toxicity in the lung. We have shown that TS induces heat shock (HS)/stress protein (HSP) synthesis in human monocytes. Pulmonary surfactant (PS) whose major physiological function is to confer mechanical stability to alveoli, also modulates oxidative metabolism and other pro-inflammatory functions of monocytes-macrophages. In order to determine whether PS alters the stress response induced by TS, we incubated human peripheral blood monocytes overnight with modified natural porcine surfactant (Curosurf) (1 mg/ml) before exposure to TS. Curosurf decreased TS-induced, but not HS-induced, expression of the major cytosolic, inducible 72 kD HSP (Hsp70). Furthermore, TS-generated superoxide anions production was significantly decreased by Curosurf in an acellular system, suggesting a direct scavenging effect of PS. We also examined the effects of TS and PS on monocytes ultrastructure. Monocytes incubated with Curosurf presented smoother cell membranes than control monocytes, while TS-induced monocyte vacuolization was, at least in part, prevented by Curosurf. Taken together, our data suggest that PS plays a protective role against oxygen radical-mediated, TS-induced cellular stress responses.

Abstract
Biochemical changes in the pulmonary surfactant system caused by exposure to toxicants are often accompanied by an influx of inflammatory cells into the lungs. We have investigated the possibility that the inflammatory and surfactant biochemical effects might be connected. Co-treatment with dexamethasone, a synthetic anti-inflammatory glucocorticoid, mitigated the increases in free cells and total intracellular surfactant phospholipid normally seen in animals given silica alone, suggesting a relationship between the free cell population of the alveoli and the surfactant system during alveolitis. Furthermore, we have investigated whether induction of the surfactant system is a universal response to alveolar inflammation. Inflammation was induced in the lungs by intratracheal injections of titanium dioxide, silica, bleomycin or lipopolysaccharide (LPS) suspended in isotonic saline. Inflammatory cell and surfactant responses were measured at 3 days and 14 days following injection. There was a distinct alveolar inflammatory cell profile following administration of each agent, at each time point, indicating a dynamic inflammatory cell population during the course of the study. Furthermore, surfactant phospholipid and protein A (SP-A) pools exhibited unique responses to the inflammatory agents. Only silica-treated lungs maintained elevated levels of surfactant phospholipids and SP-A throughout the course of the experiment. We conclude that both the surfactant components and the inflammatory cell population of the alveoli undergo dynamic changes following treatment with these inflammatory agents and that activation of the surfactant system is not a universal response to alveolar inflammation, since surfactant components were not always elevated during times of increased alveolar cellularity. The unique inflammatory cell infiltrate elicited by silica is of particular interest in that surfactant components were elevated throughout the course of the experiment in this group. Indeed, we have shown that the size of the intracellular pool of surfactant is directly proportional to the number of polymorphonuclear leukocytes but not alveolar macrophages or lymphocytes in the alveoli following silica treatment. Finally, our data suggest that the phospholipid and SP-A components of surfactant respond differentially to the pulmonary toxicants in this study.

Abstract
Passive exposure to cigarette smoke has emerged as a significant risk factor in the development of asthma and allergic airways disease. The pathogenetic mechanisms are not known, but increased absorption across the airway epithelial lining has been suggested as one possible mechanism of this effect of cigarette smoke. This study examines the absorption-permeability of the nasal epithelial lining in cigarette smokers and non-smokers. For comparison, the effect of a detergent, dioctylsodium sulfosuccinate (DS), is also examined. A solution containing 51Cr-EDTA (51-chromium labeled ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid) (mol. wt. 372 Da) was instilled and maintained in the nasal cavity in six smokers and 12 non-smokers for 15 min. Urine was collected for 24 h after the instillation. The accumulated amount of excreted 51Cr-EDTA was measured and expressed as millilitre nasal instillate. In six non-smokers the procedure was repeated when DS has been added to the instillate. The median recovered amount of 51Cr-EDTA in smokers 0.07 ml (range 0.04-0.32) was not significantly different from that in non-smokers 0.16 ml (0.01-1.22). The recovered amount of 51Cr-EDTA increased from a median of 0.18 ml (0.01-1.22) to 1.13 ml (0.53-1.80) after addition of the detergent (P = 0.028). We conclude that the nasal airway absorption-permeability is not increased in smokers. Hence, passive exposure to cigarette smoke may not produce an impairment of airway barrier functions.

Abstract
We measured the pulmonary clearance of 99mTc-labelled diethylene triamine penta-acetate (99mTc-DTPA) for 3 h in 17 non-smokers and in 16 healthy smokers. We found the clearance of 99mTc-DTPA to be well described by a mono-exponential equation in 14 non-smokers, the half-life being 66 +/- 17 min (mean +/- SD). In all smokers, a bi-exponential equation yielded a significantly better curve fit. The half-life of the slow and fast clearance components was 83 +/- 19 and 13 +/- 4 min, respectively. The relative amount of radioactivity cleared by the fast component was 57 +/- 15% and correlated significantly with cumulated tobacco consumption (r = 0.58, P < 0.02) and forced expiratory volume in 1 s in percentage of predicted value (r = -0.60, P < 0.02). We conclude that smoking induces a rapidly clearing pool of 99mTc-DTPA in the lung, the size of which may be related to smoking habits.
