Abstract
Administration of bolus intravenous fluids, common in pre-hospital and hospitalised patients, is associated with increased lung vascular permeability and mortality outside underlying disease states. In our laboratory, the induction of lung injury and oedema through rapid administration of intravenous fluid in rats was reduced by a non-specific antagonist of transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channels. The aims of this study were to determine the effect of selective TRPV4 inhibition on fluid-induced lung injury (FILI) and compare the potency of FILI inhibition to that of an established model of TRPV4 agonist-induced lung oedema. In a series of experiments, rats received specific TRPV4 inhibitor (GSK2789917) at high (15 μg/kg), medium (5 μg/kg) or low (2 μg/kg) dose or vehicle prior to induction of lung injury by intravenous infusion of TRPV4 agonist (GSK1016790) or saline. GSK1016790 significantly increased lung wet weight/body weight ratio by 96% and lung wet-to-dry weight ratio by 43% in vehicle pre-treated rats, which was inhibited by GSK2789917 in a dose-dependent manner (IC50 = 3 ng/mL). Similarly, in a single-dose study, bolus saline infusion significantly increased lung wet weight/body weight by 17% and lung wet-to-dry weight ratio by 15%, which was attenuated by high dose GSK2789917. However, in a final GSK2789917 dose-response study, inhibition did not reach significance and an inhibitory potency was not determined due to the lack of a clear dose-response. In the FILI model, TRPV4 may have a role in lung injury induced by rapid-fluid infusion, indicated by inconsistent amelioration with high dose TRPV4 antagonist.

Abstract
The success of lung transplantation is limited by the high rate of primary graft dysfunction due to ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI). Lung IRI is characterized by a robust inflammatory response, lung dysfunction, endothelial barrier disruption, oxidative stress, vascular permeability, edema, and neutrophil infiltration. These events are dependent on the health of the endothelium, which is a primary target of IRI that results in pulmonary endothelial barrier dysfunction. Over the past 10 years, research has focused more on the endothelium, which is beginning to unravel the multi-factorial pathogenesis and immunologic mechanisms underlying IRI. Many important proteins, receptors, and signaling pathways that are involved in the pathogenesis of endothelial dysfunction after IR are starting to be identified and targeted as prospective therapies for lung IRI. In this review, we highlight the more significant mediators of IRI-induced endothelial dysfunction discovered over the past decade including the extracellular glycocalyx, endothelial ion channels, purinergic receptors, kinases, and integrins. While there are no definitive clinical therapies currently available to prevent lung IRI, we will discuss potential clinical strategies for targeting the endothelium for the treatment or prevention of IRI. The accruing evidence on the essential role the endothelium plays in lung IRI suggests that promising endothelial-directed treatments may be approaching the clinic soon. The application of therapies targeting the pulmonary endothelium may help to halt this rapid and potentially fatal injury.

Abstract
Objective The aim of this study is to investigate the correlation between periodontal disease and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) from the perspective of gene regulation, as well as the inflammatory pathways involved. Methods Forty C57BL/6 mice were randomly divided into four groups: control group, chronic periodontitis (CP) group, COPD group, and CP&COPD group. Lung tissue samples were selected for messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) sequencing analysis, and differential genes were screened out. Gene enrichment analysis was carried out, and then crosstalk gene enrichment analysis was conducted to explore the pathogenesis related to periodontal disease and COPD. Results Results of enrichment analysis showed that the differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the CP group were concentrated in response to bacterial origin molecules. The DEGs in the COPD group gene were enriched in positive regulation of B cell activation. The DEGs in the CP&COPD group were concentrated in neutrophil extravasation and neutrophil migration. The mice in the three experimental groups had 19 crosstalk genes, five of which were key genes. Conclusions Lcn2, S100a8, S100a9, Irg1, Clec4d are potential crossover genes of periodontal disease and COPD. Lcn2, S100a8, S100a9 are correlated with neutrophils in both diseases. Irg1 and Clec4d may bind to receptors on the surface of lymphocytes to produce cytokines and activate inflammatory pathways, this requires further research.

Abstract
Disturbed remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is frequently observed in several high-prevalence pathologies that include fibrotic diseases of organs such as the heart, lung, periodontium, liver, and the stiffening of the ECM surrounding invasive cancers. In many of these lesions, matrix remodeling mediated by fibroblasts is dysregulated, in part by alterations to the regulatory and effector systems that synthesize and degrade collagen, and by alterations to the functions of the integrin-based adhesions that normally mediate mechanical remodeling of collagen fibrils. Cell-matrix adhesions containing collagen-binding integrins are enriched with regulatory and effector systems that initiate localized remodeling of pericellular collagen fibrils to maintain ECM homeostasis. A large cadre of regulatory molecules is enriched in cell-matrix adhesions that affect ECM remodeling through synthesis, degradation, and contraction of collagen fibrils. One of these regulatory molecules is Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid-type 4 (TRPV4), a mechanically sensitive, Ca2+-permeable plasma membrane channel that regulates collagen remodeling. The gating of Ca2+ across the plasma membrane by TRPV4 and the consequent generation of intracellular Ca2+ signals affect several processes that determine the structural and mechanical properties of collagen-rich ECM. These processes include the synthesis of new collagen fibrils, tractional remodeling by contractile forces, and collagenolysis. While the specific mechanisms by which TRPV4 contributes to matrix remodeling are not well-defined, it is known that TRPV4 is activated by mechanical forces transmitted through collagen adhesion receptors. Here, we consider how TRPV4 expression and function contribute to physiological and pathological collagen remodeling and are associated with collagen adhesions. Over the long-term, an improved understanding of how TRPV4 regulates collagen remodeling could pave the way for new approaches to manage fibrotic lesions.

Abstract
Rosacea is a chronic inflammatory condition of which there is no cure. The pathogenesis of rosacea is likely multifactorial, involving genetic and environmental contributions. Current understanding suggests that pro-inflammatory pathways involving cathelicidins and inflammasome complexes are central to rosacea pathogenesis. Common rosacea triggers modulate these pathways in a complex manner, which may contribute to the varying severity and clinical presentations of rosacea. Established and emerging rosacea treatments may owe their efficacy to their ability to target different players in these pro-inflammatory pathways. Improving our molecular understanding of rosacea will guide the development of new therapies and the use of combination therapies.

Abstract
Mechanosensitive channels (MS channels) are membrane proteins capable of responding to mechanical stress over a wide dynamic range of external mechanical stimuli. In recent years, it has been found that MS channels play an important role as "sentinels" in the process of cell sensing and response to extracellular and intracellular force signals. There is growing appreciation for mechanical activation of ion channels and their subsequent initiation of downstream signaling pathways. Members of the transient receptor potential (TRP) superfamily and Piezo channels are broadly expressed in human tissues and contribute to multiple cellular functions. Both TRP and Piezo channels are thought to play key roles in physiological homeostasis and pathophysiology of disease states including in the lung. Here, we review the current state of knowledge on the expression, regulation, and function of TRP and Piezo channels in the context of the adult lung across the age spectrum, and in lung diseases such as asthma, COPD and pulmonary fibrosis where mechanical forces likely play varied roles in the structural and functional changes characteristic of these diseases. Understanding of TRP and Piezo in the lung can provide insights into new targets for treatment of pulmonary disease.

Abstract
Background Increased airway resistance and hyperinflation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) are associated with increased mechanical stress that modulate many essential pathophysiological functions including airway remodeling and inflammation. Our present study aimed to investigate the role of transient receptor potential canonical 1 (TRPC1), a mechanosensitive cation channel in airway remodeling and inflammation in COPD and the effect of glucocorticoid on this process. Methods In patients, we investigated the effect of pathological high mechanical stress on the expression of airway remodeling-related cytokines transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1), matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP9) and the count of inflammatory cells in endotracheal aspirates (ETAs) by means of different levels of peak inspiratory pressure (PIP) under mechanical ventilation, and analyzed their correlation with TRPC1. Based on whether patients regularly used inhaled corticosteroid (ICS), COPD patients were further divided into ICS group (n = 12) and non-ICS group (n=15). The ICS effect on the expression of TRPC1 was detected by Western blot. In vitro, we imitated the mechanical stress using cyclic stretch and examined the levels of TGF-β1 and MMP-9. The role of TRPC1 was further explored by siRNA transfection and dexamethasone administration. Results Our results revealed that the TRPC1 level and the inflammatory cells counts were significantly higher in COPD group. After mechanical ventilation, the expression of TGF-β1 and MMP-9 in all COPD subgroups was significantly increased, while in the control group, only high PIP subgroup increased. Meanwhile, TRPC1 expression was positively correlated with the counts of inflammatory cells and the levels of TGF-β1 and MMP-9. In vitro, mechanical stretch significantly increased TGF-β1 and MMP-9 levels and such increase was greatly attenuated by TRPC1 siRNA transfection and dexamethasone administration. Conclusion Our results suggest that the increased TRPC1 may play a role in the airway inflammation and airway remodeling in COPD under high airway pressure. Glucocorticoid could in some degree alleviate airway remodeling via inhibition of TRPC1.

Abstract
Vanadium exposure has the adverse effect on lung function in human, whereas the detailed mechanisms of vanadium exposure-induced pulmonary toxicity are limited. Hence, the present study aimed to investigate the hub genes and signaling pathways related to sodium metavanadate (SMV)-induced pulmonary toxicity. The transcript expression profile GSE36684 downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus contained eight human bronchial epithelial cell (HBEC) samples including five SMV-treated and three control HBEC samples. Totally 455 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened, especially 201 and 254 genes were up- and down-regulated in the HBECs treated with SMV. Gene ontology analysis suggested that the DEGs were mainly involved in signal transduction, the response to drug, cell proliferation, adhesion, and migration. Pathway analysis demonstrated that the DEGs were primarily participated in NF-κB, Wnt, MAPK, and PI3K-Akt signaling pathways. Moreover, the hub genes, including ITGA5, ITGB3, ITGA2, LAMC2, MMP2, and ITGA4, might contribute to SMV-induced pulmonary toxicity. Our study improves the understanding of the molecular mechanisms by which SMV induced the pulmonary toxicity.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are one primary type of calcium (Ca2+) permeable channels, and those relevant transmembrane and intracellular TRP channels were previously thought to be mainly associated with the regulation of cardiovascular and neuronal systems. Nowadays, however, accumulating evidence shows that those TRP channels are also responsible for tumorigenesis and progression, inducing tumor invasion and metastasis. However, the overall underlying mechanisms and possible signaling transduction pathways that TRP channels in malignant tumors might still remain elusive. Therefore, in this review, we focus on the linkage between TRP channels and the significant characteristics of tumors such as multi-drug resistance (MDR), metastasis, apoptosis, proliferation, immune surveillance evasion, and the alterations of relevant tumor micro-environment. Moreover, we also have discussed the expression of relevant TRP channels in various forms of cancer and the relevant inhibitors' efficacy. The chemo-sensitivity of the anti-cancer drugs of various acting mechanisms and the potential clinical applications are also presented. Furthermore, it would be enlightening to provide possible novel therapeutic approaches to counteract malignant tumors regarding the intervention of calcium channels of this type.

Abstract
The SARS-CoV-2 infection triggers host kinases and is responsible for heavy phosphorylation in the host and also in the virus. Notably, phosphorylations in virus were achieved using the host enzyme for its better survival and further mutations. We have attempted to study and understand the changes that happened in phosphorylation during and post SARS-CoV-2 infection. There were about 70 phosphorylation sites detected in SARS-CoV-2 viral proteins including N, M, S, 3a, and 9b. Furthermore, more than 15,000 host phosphorylation sites were observed in SARS-CoV-2-infected cells. SARS-CoV-2 affects several kinases including CMGC, CK2, CDK, PKC, PIKFYVE, and EIF2AK2. Furthermore, SARS-CoV-2 regulates various signaling pathways including MAPK, GFR signaling, TGF-β, autophagy, and AKT. These elevated kinases and signaling pathways can be potential therapeutic targets for anti-COVID-19 drug discovery.

Toumpanakis D, Chatzianastasiou A, Vassilakopoulou V, Mizi E, Dettoraki M, Perlikos F, Giatra G, Mikos N, Theocharis S, Vassilakopoulos T. TRPV4 Inhibition Exerts Protective Effects Against Resistive Breathing Induced Lung Injury. Int J Chron Obstruct Pulmon Dis 2022; 17:343-353. [PMID: 35210764 PMCID: PMC8857953 DOI: 10.2147/copd.s336108] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/25/2021] [Accepted: 02/03/2022] [Indexed: 11/23/2022] Open
Abstract
Introduction TRPV4 channels are calcium channels, activated by mechanical stress, that have been implicated in the pathogenesis of pulmonary inflammation. During resistive breathing (RB), increased mechanical stress is imposed on the lung, inducing lung injury. The role of TRPV4 channels in RB-induced lung injury is unknown. Materials and Methods Spontaneously breathing adult male C57BL/6 mice were subjected to RB by tracheal banding. Following anaesthesia, mice were placed under a surgical microscope, the surface area of the trachea was measured and a nylon band was sutured around the trachea to reduce area to half. The specific TRPV4 inhibitor, HC-067047 (10 mg/kg ip), was administered either prior to RB and at 12 hrs following initiation of RB (preventive) or only at 12 hrs after the initiation of RB (therapeutic protocol). Lung injury was assessed at 24 hrs of RB, by measuring lung mechanics, total protein, BAL total and differential cell count, KC and IL-6 levels in BAL fluid, surfactant Protein (Sp)D in plasma and a lung injury score by histology. Results RB decreased static compliance (Cst), increased total protein in BAL (p < 0.001), total cell count due to increased number of both macrophages and neutrophils, increased KC and IL-6 in BAL (p < 0.001 and p = 0.01, respectively) and plasma SpD (p < 0.0001). Increased lung injury score was detected. Both preventive and therapeutic HC-067047 administration restored Cst and inhibited the increase in total protein, KC and IL-6 levels in BAL fluid, compared to RB. Preventive TRPV4 inhibition ameliorated the increase in BAL cellularity, while therapeutic TRPV4 inhibition exerted a partial effect. TRPV4 inhibition blunted the increase in plasma SpD (p < 0.001) after RB and the increase in lung injury score was also inhibited. Conclusion TRPV4 inhibition exerts protective effects against RB-induced lung injury.

Abstract
The architecture of the vertebrate eye is optimized for efficient delivery and transduction of photons and processing of signaling cascades downstream from phototransduction. The cornea, lens, retina, vasculature, ciliary body, ciliary muscle, iris and sclera have specialized functions in ocular protection, transparency, accommodation, fluid regulation, metabolism and inflammatory signaling, which are required to enable function of the retina-light sensitive tissue in the posterior eye that transmits visual signals to relay centers in the midbrain. This process can be profoundly impacted by non-visual stimuli such as mechanical (tension, compression, shear), thermal, nociceptive, immune and chemical stimuli, which target these eye regions to induce pain and precipitate vision loss in glaucoma, diabetic retinopathy, retinal dystrophies, retinal detachment, cataract, corneal dysfunction, ocular trauma and dry eye disease. TRPV4, a polymodal nonselective cation channel, integrate non-visual inputs with homeostatic and signaling functions of the eye. The TRPV4 gene is expressed in most if not all ocular tissues, which vary widely with respect to the mechanisms of TRPV4 channel activation, modulation, oligomerization, and participation in protein- and lipid interactions. Under- and overactivation of TRPV4 may affect intraocular pressure, maintenance of blood-retina barriers, lens accommodation, neuronal function and neuroinflammation. Because TRPV4 dysregulation precipitates many pathologies across the anterior and posterior eye, the channel could be targeted to mitigate vision loss.

Abstract
Acute lung injury/acute respiratory distress syndrome (ALI/ARDS) is a devastating respiratory disorder with high rates of mortality and morbidity, but the detailed underlying mechanisms of ALI/ARDS remain largely unknown. Mechanosensitive ion channels (MSCs), including epithelial sodium channel (ENaC), Piezo channels, transient receptor potential channels (TRPs), and two-pore domain potassium ion (K2P) channels, are highly expressed in lung tissues, and the activity of these MSCs can be modulated by mechanical forces (e.g., mechanical ventilation) and other stimuli (e.g., LPS, hyperoxia). Dysfunction of MSCs has been found in various types of ALI/ARDS, and MSCs play a key role in regulating alveolar fluid clearance, alveolar epithelial/endothelial barrier function, the inflammatory response and surfactant secretion in ALI/ARDS lungs. Targeting MSCs exerts therapeutic effects in the treatment of ALI/ARDS. In this review, we summarize the structure and functions of several well-recognized MSCs, the role of MSCs in the pathogenesis of ALI/ARDS and recent advances in the pharmacological and molecular modulation of MSCs in the treatment of ALI/ARDS. According to the current literature, targeting MSCs might be a very promising therapeutic approach against ALI/ARDS.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To study the role of the low-density lipoprotein receptor-related protein 1 (LRP1)-proline-rich tyrosine kinase 2 phosphorylation (pPyk2)-matrix metalloproteinases 9 (MMP9) pathway in hyperoxia-induced lung injury in neonatal rats. METHODS A total of 16 neonatal rats were randomly placed in chambers containing room air (air group) or 95% medical oxygen (hyperoxia group) immediately after birth, with 8 rats in each group. All of the rats were sacrificed on day 8 of life. Hematoxylin and eosin staining was used to observe the pathological changes of lung tissue. ELISA was used to measure the levels of soluble LRP1 (sLRP1) and MMP9 in serum and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Western blot was used to measure the protein expression levels of LRP1, MMP9, Pyk2, and pPyk2 in lung tissue. RT-PCR was used to measure the mRNA expression levels of LRP1 and MMP9 in lung tissue. RESULTS The hyperoxia group had significantly higher levels of sLRP1 and MMP9 in serum and BALF than the air group (P<0.05). Compared with the air group, the hyperoxia group had significant increases in the protein expression levels of LRP1, MMP9, and pPyk2 in lung tissue (P<0.05). The hyperoxia group had significantly higher relative mRNA expression levels of LRP1 and MMP9 in lung tissue than the air group (P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS The activation of the LRP1-pPyk2-MMP9 pathway is enhanced in hyperoxia-induced lung injury in neonatal rats, which may be involved in the pathogenesis of bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

Abstract
Background Acute lung injury (ALI) is a severe respiratory disease with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Many mediators regarding endogenous or exogenous are involved in the pathophysiology of ALI. Here, we have uncovered the involvement of integrins and matrix metalloproteinases, as critical determinants of excessive inflammation and endothelial permeability, in the regulation of ALI. Methods Inflammatory cytokines were measured by quantitative real-time PCR for mRNA levels and ELISA for secretion levels. Endothelial permeability assay was detected by the passage of rhodamine B isothiocyanate-dextran. Mice lung permeability was assayed by Evans blue albumin (EBA). Western blot was used for protein level measurements. The intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) were evaluated using a cell-permeable probe, DCFH-DA. Intratracheal injection of lipopolysaccharide (LPS) into mice was conducted to establish the lung injury model. Results Exogenous MMP-9 significantly aggravated the inflammatory response and permeability in mouse pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (PMVECs) treated by LPS, whereas knockdown of MMP-9 exhibited the opposite phenotypes. Knockdown of integrin β3 or β5 in LPS-treated PMVECs significantly downregulated MMP-9 expression and decreased inflammatory response and permeability in the presence or absence of exogenous MMP-9. Additionally, the interaction of MMP-9 and integrin β5 was impaired by a ROS scavenger, which further decreased the pro-inflammatory cytokines production and endothelial leakage in PMVECs subjected to co-treatment (LPS with exogenous MMP-9). In vivo studies, exogenous MMP-9 treatment or knockdown β3 integrin significantly decreased survival in ALI mice. Notably, knockdown of β5 integrin alone had no remarkable effect on survival, but which combined with anti-MMP-9 treatment significantly improved the survival by ameliorating excessive lung inflammation and permeability in ALI mice. Conclusion These findings support the β3/5 integrin-MMP-9 axis as an endogenous signal that could play a pivotal role in regulating inflammatory response and alveolar-capillary permeability in ALI.

Multilevel proteomics reveals host perturbations by SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV. Nature 2021; 594:246-252.

Abstract
The emergence and global spread of SARS-CoV-2 has resulted in the urgent need for an in-depth understanding of molecular functions of viral proteins and their interactions with the host proteome. Several individual omics studies have extended our knowledge of COVID-19 pathophysiology1-10. Integration of such datasets to obtain a holistic view of virus-host interactions and to define the pathogenic properties of SARS-CoV-2 is limited by the heterogeneity of the experimental systems. Here we report a concurrent multi-omics study of SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV. Using state-of-the-art proteomics, we profiled the interactomes of both viruses, as well as their influence on the transcriptome, proteome, ubiquitinome and phosphoproteome of a lung-derived human cell line. Projecting these data onto the global network of cellular interactions revealed crosstalk between the perturbations taking place upon infection with SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV at different levels and enabled identification of distinct and common molecular mechanisms of these closely related coronaviruses. The TGF-β pathway, known for its involvement in tissue fibrosis, was specifically dysregulated by SARS-CoV-2 ORF8 and autophagy was specifically dysregulated by SARS-CoV-2 ORF3. The extensive dataset (available at https://covinet.innatelab.org ) highlights many hotspots that could be targeted by existing drugs and may be used to guide rational design of virus- and host-directed therapies, which we exemplify by identifying inhibitors of kinases and matrix metalloproteases with potent antiviral effects against SARS-CoV-2.

Abstract
In healthy connective tissues, mechanosensors trigger the generation of Ca2+ signals, which enable cells to maintain the structure of the fibrillar collagen matrix through actomyosin contractile forces. Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 4 (TRPV4) is a mechanosensitive Ca2+ -permeable channel that, when expressed in cell-matrix adhesions of the plasma membrane, regulates extracellular matrix (ECM) remodeling. In high prevalence disorders such as fibrosis and tumor metastasis, dysregulated matrix remodeling is associated with disruptions of Ca2+ homeostasis and TRPV4 function. Here, we consider that ECM polymers transmit cell-activating mechanical signals to TRPV4 in cell adhesions. When activated, TRPV4 regulates fibrillar collagen remodeling, thereby altering the mechanical properties of the ECM. In this review, we integrate functionally connected processes of matrix remodeling to highlight how TRPV4 in cell adhesions and matrix mechanics are reciprocally regulated through Ca2+ signaling.

Abstract
Obesity has been described as a major factor of health risk in modern society. Next to intricately linked comorbidities like coronary artery disease or diabetes, an influence of obesity on regeneration after muscle injury has been described previously. However, the influence of obesity on tissue regeneration in a combined trauma, merging the more systemic influence of a blunt lung trauma and the local blunt muscle trauma, has not been investigated yet. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the influence of obesity on regeneration in a mouse model that combined both muscle and thorax trauma. Using gene expression analysis, a focus was put on the structure as well as the organization of the extracellular matrix and on functional satellite cell physiology. An increased amount of debris in the lung of obese mice compared to normal weight mice up to 192 h after combined trauma based on visual assessment can be reported which is accompanied by a decreased response of Mmp2 in obese mice. Additionally, a delayed and elongated response of inhibitor genes like Timp1 has been revealed in obese mice. This elongated response to the trauma in obese mice can also be seen in plasma based on increased levels of pro-inflammatory chemo- and cytokines (IL-6, MCP-1, and IL 23) 192 h post trauma. In addition to changes in the lung, morphological analysis of the injured extensor iliotibialis anticus of the left hind leg in lean and diet-induced obese mice revealed deposition of fat in the regenerating muscle in obese animals hindering the structure of a compact muscle. Additionally, decreased activation of satellite cells and changes in organization and build-up of the ECM could be detected, finally leading to a decreased stability of the regenerated muscle in obese mice. Both factors contribute to an attenuated response to the trauma by obese mice which is reflected by a statistically significant decrease in muscle force of obese mice compared to lean mice 192 h post trauma induction.

Abstract
Background and Purpose In the acute phase of ischemia-reperfusion, hypoperfusion associated with ischemia and reperfusion in microvascular regions and disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB) contribute to post-ischemic brain injury. We aimed to clarify whether brain injury following transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) is ameliorated in Transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 knockout (Trpv4-/- ) mice. Methods tMCAO was induced in wild-type (WT) and Trpv4-/- mice aged 8-10 weeks. Ischemia-induced lesion volume was evaluated by 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazolium chloride staining at 24 h post-tMCAO. Tissue water content and Evans blue leakage in the ipsilateral hemisphere and a neurological score were evaluated at 48 h post-tMCAO. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was performed to assess the morphological changes in microvasculature in the ischemic lesions at 6 h post-tMCAO. Results Compared with WT mice, Trpv4-/- mice showed reduced ischemia-induced lesion volume and reduced water content and Evans blue leakage in the ipsilateral hemisphere alongside milder neurological symptoms. The loss of zonula occludens-1 and occludin proteins in the ipsilateral hemisphere was attenuated in Trpv4-/- mice. TEM revealed that parenchymal microvessels in the ischemic lesion were compressed and narrowed by the swollen endfeet of astrocytes in WT mice, but these effects were markedly ameliorated in Trpv4-/- mice. Conclusion The present results demonstrate that TRPV4 contributes to post-ischemic brain injury. The preserved microcirculation and BBB function shortly after reperfusion are the key neuroprotective roles of TRPV4 inhibition, which represents a promising target for the treatment of acute ischemic stroke.

Abstract
The vascular endothelium constitutes a semi-permeable barrier between blood and interstitial fluids. Since an augmented endothelial permeability is often associated to pathological states, understanding the molecular basis for its regulation is a crucial biomedical and clinical challenge. This review focuses on the processes controlling paracellular permeability that is the permeation of fluids between adjacent endothelial cells (ECs). Cytosolic calcium changes are often detected as early events preceding the alteration of the endothelial barrier (EB) function. For this reason, great interest has been devoted in the last decades to unveil the molecular mechanisms underlying calcium fluxes and their functional relationship with vessel permeability. Beyond the dicotomic classification between store-dependent and independent calcium entry at the plasma membrane level, the search for the molecular components of the related calcium-permeable channels revealed a difficult task for intrinsic and technical limitations. The contribution of redundant channel-forming proteins including members of TRP superfamily and Orai1, together with the very complex intracellular modulatory pathways, displays a huge variability among tissues and along the vascular tree. Moreover, calcium-independent events could significantly concur to the regulation of vascular permeability in an intricate and fascinating multifactorial framework.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid-type 4 (TRPV4) cation channel is widely expressed in all tissues as well as in immune cells and its function as mechanosensitive Ca2+ channel seems to be conserved throughout all mammalian species. Of late, emerging evidence has implicated TRPV4 in the activation and differentiation of innate immune cells, especially in neutrophils, monocytes, and macrophages. As such, TRPV4 has been shown to mediate neutrophil adhesion and chemotaxis, as well as production of reactive oxygen species in response to pro-inflammatory stimuli. In macrophages, TRPV4 mediates formation of both reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, and regulates phagocytosis, thus facilitating bacterial clearance and resolution of infection. Importantly, TRPV4 may present a missing link between mechanical forces and immune responses. This connection has been exemplary highlighted by the demonstrated role of TRPV4 in macrophage activation and subsequent induction of lung injury following mechanical overventilation. Mechanosensation via TRPV4 is also expected to activate innate immune cells and establish a pro-inflammatory loop in fibrotic diseases with increased deposition of extracellular matrix (ECM) and substrate stiffness. Likewise, TRPV4 may be activated by cell migration through the endothelium or the extracellular matrix, or even by circulating immune cells squeezing through the narrow passages of the pulmonary or systemic capillary bed, a process that has recently been linked to neutrophil priming and depriming. Here, we provide an overview over the emerging role of TRPV4 in innate immune responses and highlight two distinct modes for the activation of TRPV4 by either mechanical forces ("mechanoTRPV4") or by pathogens ("immunoTRPV4").

Abstract
Hyperoxia-induced lung injury occurs in neonates on oxygen support due to premature birth, often leading to the development of bronchopulmonary dysplasia. Current treatment options have limited effect. The aim of this study was to determine if human induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) and those differentiated to an alveolar-like phenotype (diPSCs) could repair hyperoxia-induced lung damage in a mouse model. Neonatal C57BL6/J mice were separated into two groups and exposed to 75% oxygen over 6 or 14 days. Cell treatments were instilled intra-orally following removal. Controls included hyperoxia, normoxia, and a vehicle. 7 and 14 days post treatment, lungs were extracted and histomorphometric analysis performed. Gene expression of markers mediating inflammation (Tgfβ1, Nfkb1, and Il-6) were investigated. In addition, exosomes from each cell type were isolated and administered as a cell free alternative. There was a significant difference between the mean linear intercept (MLI) in hyperoxic vs. normoxic lungs prior to treatment. No difference existed between the MLI in iPSC-treated lungs vs. normoxic lungs after 6 and 14 days of hyperoxia. For mice exposed to 6 days of hyperoxia, gene expression in iPSC-treated lungs returned to normal 14 days later. At the same time points, diPSCs were not as effective. Exosomes were also not as effective in reversing hyperoxic lung damage as their cellular counterparts. This study highlights the potential benefit of using iPSCs to repair damaged lung tissue through possible modulation of the inflammatory response, leading to novel therapies for acute hyperoxia-induced lung injury and the prevention of bronchopulmonary dysplasia.

Abstract
The transient receptor potential ion-channel superfamily consists of nonselective cation channels located mostly on the plasma membranes of numerous animal cell types, which are closely related to sensory information transmission (e.g., vision, pain, and temperature perception), as well as regulation of intracellular Ca2+ balance and physiological activities of growth and development. Transient receptor potential ion channel subfamily V (TRPV) is one of the largest and most diverse subfamilies, including TRPV1-TRPV6 involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular functions. TRPV4 can be activated by various physical and chemical stimuli, such as heat, mechanical force, and phorbol ester derivatives participating in the maintenance of normal cellular functions. In recent years, the roles of TRPV4 in cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and migration have been extensively studied. Its abnormal expression has also been closely related to the onset and progression of multiple tumors, so TRPV4 may be a target for cancer diagnosis and treatment. In this review, we focused on the latest studies concerning the role of TRPV4 in tumorigenesis and the therapeutic potential. As evidenced by the effects on cancerogenesis, TRPV4 is a potential target for anticancer therapy.

Abstract
The vascular endothelium is a broadly distributed and highly specialized organ. The endothelium has a number of functions including the control of blood vessels diameter through the production and release of potent vasoactive substances or direct electrical communication with underlying smooth muscle cells, regulates the permeability of the vascular barrier, stimulates the formation of new blood vessels, and influences inflammatory and thrombotic processes. Endothelial cells that make up the endothelium express a variety of cell-surface receptors and ion channels on the plasma membrane that are capable of detecting circulating hormones, neurotransmitters, oxygen tension, and shear stress across the vascular wall. Changes in these stimuli activate signaling cascades that initiate an appropriate physiological response. Increases in the global intracellular Ca2+ concentration and localized Ca2+ signals that occur within specialized subcellular microdomains are fundamentally important components of many signaling pathways in the endothelium. The transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a superfamily of cation-permeable ion channels that act as a primary means of increasing cytosolic Ca2+ in endothelial cells. Consequently, TRP channels are vitally important for the major functions of the endothelium. In this review, we provide an in-depth discussion of Ca2+ -permeable TRP channels in the endothelium and their role in vascular regulation. © 2019 American Physiological Society.

TRPV4 inhibition prevents increased water diffusion and blood-retina barrier breakdown in the retina of streptozotocin-induced diabetic mice. PLoS One 2019; 14:e0212158.

Abstract
A better understanding of the molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in retinal hydro-mineral homeostasis imbalance during diabetic macular edema (DME) is needed to gain insights into retinal (patho-)physiology that will help elaborate innovative therapies with lower health care costs. Transient receptor potential cation channel subfamily vanilloid member 4 (TRPV4) plays an intricate role in homeostatic processes that needs to be deciphered in normal and diabetic retina. Based on previous findings showing that TRPV4 antagonists resolve blood-retina barrier (BRB) breakdown in diabetic rats, we evaluated whether TRPV4 channel inhibition prevents and reverts retinal edema in streptozotocin(STZ)-induced diabetic mice. We assessed retinal edema using common metrics, including retinal morphology/thickness (histology) and BRB integrity (albumin-associated tracer), and also by quantifying water mobility through apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) measures. ADC was measured by diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (DW-MRI), acquired ex vivo at 4 weeks after STZ injection in diabetes and control groups. DWI images were also used to assess retinal thickness. TRPV4 was genetically ablated or pharmacologically inhibited as follows: left eyes were used as vehicle control and right eyes were intravitreally injected with TRPV4-selective antagonist GSK2193874, 24 h before the end of the 4 weeks of diabetes. Histological data show that retinal thickness was similar in nondiabetic and diabetic wt groups but increased in diabetic Trpv4-/- mice. In contrast, DWI shows retinal thinning in diabetic wt mice that was absent in diabetic Trpv4-/- mice. Disorganized outer nuclear layer was observed in diabetic wt but not in diabetic Trpv4-/- retinas. We further demonstrate increased water diffusion, increased distances between photoreceptor nuclei, reduced nuclear area in all nuclear layers, and BRB hyperpermeability, in diabetic wt mice, effects that were absent in diabetic Trpv4-/- mice. Retinas of diabetic mice treated with PBS showed increased water diffusion that was not normalized by GSK2193874. ADC maps in nondiabetic Trpv4-/- mouse retinas showed restricted diffusion. Our data provide evidence that water diffusion is increased in diabetic mouse retinas and that TRPV4 function contributes to retinal hydro-mineral homeostasis and structure under control conditions, and to the development of BRB breakdown and increased water diffusion in the retina under diabetes conditions. A single intravitreous injection of TRPV4 antagonist is however not sufficient to revert these alterations in diabetic mouse retinas.

Abstract
HDAC6 is a member of the class II histone deacetylase. HDAC6 inhibition possesses anti-inflammatory effects. However, the effects of HDAC6 inhibition in acute lung inflammation have not been studied. Here, we investigated the effects of a highly selective and potent HDAC6 inhibitor CAY10603 in LPS-induced acute inflammatory lung injury. We also conducted a series of experiments including immunoblotting, ELISA, and histological assays to explore the inflammatory signaling pathways modulated by the selective HDAC6 inhibition. We observed that HDAC6 activity was increased in the lung tissues after LPS challenge, which was associated with a decreased level of ɑ-tubulin acetylation in the lung tissues. HDAC6 inhibition by CAY10603 prevented LPS-induced ɑ-tubulin deacetylation in the lung tissues. HDAC6 inhibition also exhibited protective effects against LPS-induced acute lung inflammation, which was demonstrated by the reduced production of pro-inflammatory cytokines TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6 and decreased leukocyte infiltration. Furthermore, HDAC6 inhibition blocked the decrease of E-cadherin level and inhibited the increase of MMP9 expression in the lung tissues, which could prevent the destruction of the lung architecture in LPS-induced inflammatory injury. Given the important roles of NFĸB and inflammasome activation in inflammatory responses, we investigated their regulation by HDAC6 inhibition in LPS-induced lung injury. Our results showed that HDAC6 inhibition blocked the activation of NFĸB by inhibiting IĸB phosphorylation in LPS-induced acute lung injury, and LPS-induced-inflammasome activity was reduced by HDAC6 inhibition as demonstrated by the decreased IL-1β and caspase-1 cleavage and activation. Collectively, our data suggest that selective HDAC6 inhibition suppresses inflammatory signaling pathways and alleviates LPS-induced acute lung inflammation.

Abstract
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis is a pathological result of dysfunctional repair response to tissue injury, leading to chronically impaired gas exchange and death. Macrophages are believed to be critical in this disease pathogenesis; However, the exact mechanisms remain enigmatic. Here, we demonstrated that macrophages might contribute to pulmonary fibrosis at the early stage because the aggregation of macrophages appeared earlier than epithelial-mesenchymal transition and fibrosis in mouse and rat experimental models of pulmonary fibrosis. It has been found that macrophages could promote epithelial-mesenchymal transition of alveolar epithelial cells and fibroblast migration in co-culture models between macrophages and alveolar epithelial cells/fibroblasts. Importantly, we used protein micro array to analyze the cytokines that were altered after bleomycin treatment. Only thymic stromal lymphopoietin and matrix metalloproteinase 9 were significantly increased. We further confirmed that TSLP participated in the macrophage-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition of alveolar epithelial cells using a TSLP recombinant protein. MMP9 was also involved in macrophage-induced fibroblast migration, which can be reversed by an inhibitor of MMP9. Collectively, these findings explained the underlying mechanisms of macrophage-promoted pulmonary fibrosis.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Tryptase, the most abundant protease of the human mast cell, has been implicated as a key mediator of allergic inflammation that acts through activation of PAR2. OBJECTIVES To investigate the contribution of PAR2 in the pro-inflammatory actions mediated by tryptase in a mice model. METHODS We have injected recombinant human βII-tryptase into the peritoneum of PAR2-deficient and wild-type C57BL/6 mice. After 6, 12 and 24 hours, mice were killed, peritoneal lavage performed and inflammatory changes investigated. RESULTS Tryptase stimulated an increase in neutrophil numbers in the peritoneum, but responses did not differ between PAR2-deficient and wild-type mice. Heat inactivation of tryptase or pre-incubation with a selective tryptase inhibitor reduced neutrophilia, but neutrophil accumulation was not elicited with a peptide agonist of PAR2 (SLIGRL-NH2 ). Zymography indicated that tryptase stimulated the release of matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) 2 and 9 in the peritoneum of both mouse strains. Studies involving immunomagnetic isolation of neutrophils suggested that neutrophils represent the major cellular source of tryptase-induced MMP2 and MMP9. At 24 hours after tryptase injection, there was increased microvascular leakage as indicated by high levels of albumin in peritoneal lavage fluid, and this appeared to be partially abolished by heat-inactivating tryptase or addition of a protease inhibitor. There was no corresponding increase in levels of histamine or total protein. The extent of tryptase-induced microvascular leakage or gelatinase release into the peritoneum did not differ between PAR2-deficient and wild-type mice. CONCLUSIONS Our findings indicate that tryptase is a potent stimulus for neutrophil accumulation, MMP release and microvascular leakage. Although these actions required an intact catalytic site, the primary mechanism of tryptase in vivo would appear to involve processes independent of PAR2.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Recent studies demonstrate that spatially restricted, local Ca2+ signals are key regulators of endothelium-dependent vasodilation in systemic circulation. There are drastic functional differences between pulmonary arteries (PAs) and systemic arteries, but the local Ca2+ signals that control endothelium-dependent vasodilation of PAs are not known. Localized, unitary Ca2+ influx events through transient receptor potential vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) channels, termed TRPV4 sparklets, regulate endothelium-dependent vasodilation in resistance-sized mesenteric arteries via activation of Ca2+-dependent K+ channels. The objective of this study was to determine the unique functional roles, signaling targets, and endogenous regulators of TRPV4 sparklets in resistance-sized PAs. METHODS AND RESULTS Using confocal imaging, custom image analysis, and pressure myography in fourth-order PAs in conjunction with knockout mouse models, we report a novel Ca2+ signaling mechanism that regulates endothelium-dependent vasodilation in resistance-sized PAs. TRPV4 sparklets exhibit distinct spatial localization in PAs when compared with mesenteric arteries, and preferentially activate endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). Nitric oxide released by TRPV4-endothelial nitric oxide synthase signaling not only promotes vasodilation, but also initiates a guanylyl cyclase-protein kinase G-dependent negative feedback loop that inhibits cooperative openings of TRPV4 channels, thus limiting sparklet activity. Moreover, we discovered that adenosine triphosphate dilates PAs through a P2 purinergic receptor-dependent activation of TRPV4 sparklets. CONCLUSIONS Our results reveal a spatially distinct TRPV4-endothelial nitric oxide synthase signaling mechanism and its novel endogenous regulators in resistance-sized PAs.

Abstract
Pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAECs) express a cation current, ISOC (store-operated calcium entry current), which when activated permits calcium entry leading to inter-endothelial cell gap formation. The large molecular weight immunophilin FKBP51 inhibits ISOC but not other calcium entry pathways in PAECs. However, it is unknown whether FKBP51-mediated inhibition of ISOC is sufficient to protect the endothelial barrier from calcium entry-induced disruption. The major objective of this study was to determine whether FKBP51-mediated inhibition of ISOC leads to decreased calcium entry-induced inter-endothelial gap formation and thus preservation of the endothelial barrier. Here, we measured the effects of thapsigargin-induced ISOC on the endothelial barrier in control and FKBP51 overexpressing PAECs. FKBP51 overexpression decreased actin stress fiber and inter-endothelial cell gap formation in addition to attenuating the decrease in resistance observed with control cells using electric cell-substrate impedance sensing. Finally, the thapsigargin-induced increase in dextran flux was abolished in FKBP51 overexpressing PAECs. We then measured endothelial permeability in perfused lungs of FKBP51 knockout (FKBP51–/–) mice and observed increased calcium entry-induced permeability compared to wild-type mice. To begin to dissect the mechanism underlying the FKBP51-mediated inhibition of ISOC, a second goal of this study was to determine the role of the microtubule network. We observed that FKBP51 overexpressing PAECs exhibited increased microtubule polymerization that is critical for inhibition of ISOC by FKBP51. Overall, we have identified FKBP51 as a novel regulator of endothelial barrier integrity, and these findings are significant as they reveal a protective mechanism for endothelium against calcium entry-induced disruption.

Abstract
KEY POINTS Endothelial cells employ transient receptor potential isoform 4 (TRPV4) channels to sense ambient mechanical and chemical stimuli. In retinal microvascular endothelial cells, TRPV4 channels regulate calcium homeostasis, cytoskeletal signalling and the organization of adherens junctional contacts. Intracellular calcium increases induced by TRPV4 agonists include a significant contribution from calcium release from internal stores. Activation of TRPV4 channels regulates retinal endothelial barriers in vitro and in vivo. TRPV4 sensing may provide a feedback mechanism between sensing shear flow and eicosanoid modulators, vascular permeability and contractility at the inner retinal endothelial barrier. ABSTRACT The identity of microvascular endothelial (MVE) mechanosensors that sense blood flow in response to mechanical and chemical stimuli and regulate vascular permeability in the retina is unknown. Using immunohistochemistry, calcium imaging, electrophysiology, impedance measurements and vascular permeability assays, we show that the transient receptor potential isoform 4 (TRPV4) plays a major role in Ca2+ /cation signalling, cytoskeletal remodelling and barrier function in retinal microvasculature in vitro and in vivo. Human retinal MVE cells (HrMVECs) predominantly expressed Trpv1 and Trpv4 transcripts, and TRPV4 was broadly localized to the plasma membrane of cultured cells and intact blood vessels in the inner retina. Treatment with the selective TRPV4 agonist GSK1016790A (GSK101) activated a nonselective cation current, robustly elevated [Ca2+ ]i and reversibly increased the permeability of MVEC monolayers. This was associated with disrupted organization of endothelial F-actin, downregulated expression of occludin and remodelling of adherens contacts consisting of vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cadherin) and β-catenin. In vivo, GSK101 increased the permeability of retinal blood vessels in wild type but not in TRPV4 knockout mice. Agonist-evoked effects on barrier permeability and cytoskeletal reorganization were antagonized by the selective TRPV4 blocker HC 067047. Human choroidal endothelial cells expressed lower TRPV4 mRNA/protein levels and showed less pronounced agonist-evoked calcium signals compared to MVECs. These findings indicate a major role for TRPV4 in Ca2+ homeostasis and barrier function in human retinal capillaries and suggest that TRPV4 may differentially contribute to the inner vs. outer blood-retinal barrier function.

Abstract
This brief review assesses the role of Ca2+ signaling in lung endothelium in regulation of endothelial permeability. The disconnect between experimental and clinical outcomes to date may be due, in part, to the use of tools which yield information about aggregate permeability or Ca2+ responses in lung or in endothelial monolayers. The teaching point of this review is to “unpack the box,” i.e. consider the many potential issues which could impact interpretation of outcomes. These include phenotypic heterogeneity and resultant segment-specific permeability responses, methodologic issues related to permeability measures, contributions from Ca2+ channels in cells other than endothelium—such as alveolar macrophages or blood leukocytes), Ca2+ dynamic patterns, rather than averaged Ca2+ responses to channel activation, and the background context, such as changes in endothelial bioenergetics with sepsis. Any or all of these issues might color interpretation of permeability and Ca2+ signaling in lung.

Dual contribution of TRPV4 antagonism in the regulatory effect of vasoinhibins on blood-retinal barrier permeability: diabetic milieu makes a difference. Sci Rep 2017; 7:13094.

Abstract
Breakdown of the blood-retinal barrier (BRB), as occurs in diabetic retinopathy and other chronic retinal diseases, results in vasogenic edema and neural tissue damage, causing vision loss. Vasoinhibins are N-terminal fragments of prolactin that prevent BRB breakdown during diabetes. They modulate the expression of some transient receptor potential (TRP) family members, yet their role in regulating the TRP vanilloid subtype 4 (TRPV4) remains unknown. TRPV4 is a calcium-permeable channel involved in barrier permeability, which blockade has been shown to prevent and resolve pulmonary edema. We found TRPV4 expression in the endothelium and retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) components of the BRB, and that TRPV4-selective antagonists (RN-1734 and GSK2193874) resolve BRB breakdown in diabetic rats. Using human RPE (ARPE-19) cell monolayers and endothelial cell systems, we further observed that (i) GSK2193874 does not seem to contribute to the regulation of BRB and RPE permeability by vasoinhibins under diabetic or hyperglycemic-mimicking conditions, but that (ii) vasoinhibins can block TRPV4 to maintain BRB and endothelial permeability. Our results provide important insights into the pathogenesis of diabetic retinopathy that will further guide us toward rationally-guided new therapies: synergistic combination of selective TRPV4 blockers and vasoinhibins can be proposed to mitigate diabetes-evoked BRB breakdown.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels are a ubiquitously expressed multi-family group of cation channels that are critical to signaling events in many tissues. Their roles have been documented in many physiologic and pathologic conditions. Nevertheless, direct studies of their roles in maintain barrier function in endothelial and epithelia are relatively infrequent. This seems somewhat surprising considering that calcium ion concentrations are known to regulate barrier function. This short review provides an introduction to TRP channels and reviews some of the work in which investigators directly studied the role of TRP channels in endothelial permeability to electric current, solute, or leukocytes during the inflammatory response.

Abstract
Transient receptor potential vanilloid type 4 (TRPV4) is a calcium-permeable nonselective cation channel, originally described in 2000 by research teams led by Schultz (Nat Cell Biol 2: 695-702, 2000) and Liedtke (Cell 103: 525-535, 2000). TRPV4 is now recognized as being a polymodal ionotropic receptor that is activated by a disparate array of stimuli, ranging from hypotonicity to heat and acidic pH. Importantly, this ion channel is constitutively expressed and capable of spontaneous activity in the absence of agonist stimulation, which suggests that it serves important physiological functions, as does its widespread dissemination throughout the body and its capacity to interact with other proteins. Not surprisingly, therefore, it has emerged more recently that TRPV4 fulfills a great number of important physiological roles and that various disease states are attributable to the absence, or abnormal functioning, of this ion channel. Here, we review the known characteristics of this ion channel's structure, localization and function, including its activators, and examine its functional importance in health and disease.

Abstract
Carbenoxolone (CBX) is a clinically prescribed drug for the treatment of digestive ulcer and inflammation. It is also a widely used pharmacological inhibitor of several channels in basic research. Given that the overactivity of several channels, including those inhibitable by CBX, underlies bladder dysfunction, we tested the potential therapeutic application and mechanism of CBX in the treatment of voiding dysfunction. In a mouse model of cystitis induced by cyclophosphamide (CYP), CBX administration prevented the CYP‐elicited increase in bladder weight, oedema, haemorrhage, and urothelial injury. CBX also greatly improved micturition pattern, as manifested by the apparently decreased micturition frequency and increased micturition volume. Western blot results showed that CBX suppressed CYP‐induced increase in protein carbonyls, COX‐2, and iNOS. Further analysis using cultured urothelial cells revealed that acrolein, the major metabolite of CYP, caused protein oxidation, p38 activation, and urothelial injury. These effects of acrolein were reproduced by TRPV4 agonists and significantly prevented by antioxidant NAC, p38 inhibitor SB203580, TRPV4 antagonist RN‐1734, and CBX. Further studies showed that CBX potently suppressed TRPV4 agonist‐initiated calcium influx and subsequent cell injury. CBX attenuated CYP‐induced cystitis in vivo and reduced acrolein‐induced cell injury in vitro, through mechanisms involving inhibition of TRPV4 channels and attenuation of the channel‐mediated oxidative stress. CBX might be a promising agent for the treatment of bladder dysfunction.

Abstract
Transient Receptor Potential Vanilloid 4 (TRPV4) is a broadly expressed, polymodally gated ion channel that plays an important role in many physiological and pathophysiological processes. TRPV4 knockout mice and several synthetic pharmacological compounds that selectively target TRPV4 are now available, which has allowed detailed investigation in to the therapeutic potential of this ion channel. Results from animal studies suggest that TRPV4 antagonism has therapeutic potential in oedema, pain, gastrointestinal disorders, and lung diseases such as cough, bronchoconstriction, pulmonary hypertension, and acute lung injury. A lack of observed side-effects in vivo has prompted a first-in-human trial for a TRPV4 antagonist in healthy participants and stable heart failure patients. If successful, this would open up an exciting new area of research for a multitude of TRPV4-related pathologies. This review will discuss the known roles of TRPV4 in disease, and highlight the possible implications of targeting this important cation channel for therapy.

Abstract
Primary spontaneous pneumothorax (PSP) is a common benign problem. However, PSP recurrence is still a troublesome complication for most patients. This study intended to determine the role of matrix metalloproteinase-2 (MMP-2) and MMP-9 in type II pneumocytes of patients with PSP and its relation with recurrence. Ninety-one patients who had undergone needlescopic video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery wedge resection of lung with identifiable blebs for PSP were included in this study. Immunohistochemical (IHC) staining was used to measure the expression of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in lung tissues of PSP patients. The results were further correlated with clinicopathological parameters and recurrence rates using chi-square or Fisher's exact test. The value of MMP-2 and MMP-9 for overall recurrence was analyzed by univariate and multivariable Cox regression model. IHC data revealed that MMP-2 and MMP-9 staining was predominantly observed in type II pneumocytes of patients with PSP. We found that MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression in PSP, especially male PSP patients, was significantly correlated with recurrence. In the univariate and multivariate analyses, MMP-2 and MMP-9 were statistically significant risk factors for overall recurrence in PSP patients. Therefore, high expression levels of MMP-2 and MMP-9 in type II pneumocytes show a positive correlation with PSP recurrence risk. Further studies are needed to validate whether reduction of MMP-2 and MMP-9 expression may be a promising way for decreasing the risk of PSP recurrence in the future.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation is a life-saving intervention in critically ill patients with respiratory failure due to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Paradoxically, mechanical ventilation also creates excessive mechanical stress that directly augments lung injury, a syndrome known as ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). The pathobiology of VILI and ARDS shares many inflammatory features including increases in lung vascular permeability due to loss of endothelial cell barrier integrity resulting in alveolar flooding. While there have been advances in the understanding of certain elements of VILI and ARDS pathobiology, such as defining the importance of lung inflammatory leukocyte infiltration and highly induced cytokine expression, a deep understanding of the initiating and regulatory pathways involved in these inflammatory responses remains poorly understood. Prevailing evidence indicates that loss of endothelial barrier function plays a primary role in the development of VILI and ARDS. Thus this review will focus on the latest knowledge related to 1) the key role of the endothelium in the pathogenesis of VILI; 2) the transcription factors that relay the effects of excessive mechanical stress in the endothelium; 3) the mechanical stress-induced posttranslational modifications that influence key signaling pathways involved in VILI responses in the endothelium; 4) the genetic and epigenetic regulation of key target genes in the endothelium that are involved in VILI responses; and 5) the need for novel therapeutic strategies for VILI that can preserve endothelial barrier function.

Abstract
Airway structure and function are key aspects of normal lung development, growth, and aging, as well as of lung responses to the environment and the pathophysiology of important diseases such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and fibrosis. In this regard, the contributions of airway smooth muscle (ASM) are both functional, in the context of airway contractility and relaxation, as well as synthetic, involving production and modulation of extracellular components, modulation of the local immune environment, cellular contribution to airway structure, and, finally, interactions with other airway cell types such as epithelium, fibroblasts, and nerves. These ASM contributions are now found to be critical in airway hyperresponsiveness and remodeling that occur in lung diseases. This review emphasizes established and recent discoveries that underline the central role of ASM and sets the stage for future research toward understanding how ASM plays a central role by being both upstream and downstream in the many interactive processes that determine airway structure and function in health and disease.

Schwingshackl A. The role of stretch-activated ion channels in acute respiratory distress syndrome: finally a new target? Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 2016; 311:L639-52.

Abstract
Mechanical ventilation (MV) and oxygen therapy (hyperoxia; HO) comprise the cornerstones of life-saving interventions for patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Unfortunately, the side effects of MV and HO include exacerbation of lung injury by barotrauma, volutrauma, and propagation of lung inflammation. Despite significant improvements in ventilator technologies and a heightened awareness of oxygen toxicity, besides low tidal volume ventilation few if any medical interventions have improved ARDS outcomes over the past two decades. We are lacking a comprehensive understanding of mechanotransduction processes in the healthy lung and know little about the interactions between simultaneously activated stretch-, HO-, and cytokine-induced signaling cascades in ARDS. Nevertheless, as we are unraveling these mechanisms we are gathering increasing evidence for the importance of stretch-activated ion channels (SACs) in the activation of lung-resident and inflammatory cells. In addition to the discovery of new SAC families in the lung, e.g., two-pore domain potassium channels, we are increasingly assigning mechanosensing properties to already known Na(+), Ca(2+), K(+), and Cl(-) channels. Better insights into the mechanotransduction mechanisms of SACs will improve our understanding of the pathways leading to ventilator-induced lung injury and lead to much needed novel therapeutic approaches against ARDS by specifically targeting SACs. This review 1) summarizes the reasons why the time has come to seriously consider SACs as new therapeutic targets against ARDS, 2) critically analyzes the physiological and experimental factors that currently limit our knowledge about SACs, and 3) outlines the most important questions future research studies need to address.

Abstract
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited disease associated with chronic severe lung inflammation, leading to premature death. To develop innovative anti-inflammatory treatments, we need to characterize new cellular and molecular components contributing to the mechanisms of lung inflammation. Here, we focused on the potential role of "transient receptor potential vanilloid-4" (TRPV4), a nonselective calcium channel. We used both in vitro and in vivo approaches to demonstrate that TRPV4 expressed in airway epithelial cells triggers the secretion of major proinflammatory mediators such as chemokines and biologically active lipids, as well as a neutrophil recruitment in lung tissues. We characterized the contribution of cytosolic phospholipase A2, MAPKs, and NF-κB in TRPV4-dependent signaling. We also showed that 5,6-, 8,9-, 11,12-, and 14,15-epoxyeicosatrienoic acids, i.e., four natural lipid-based TRPV4 agonists, are present in expectorations of CF patients. Also, TRPV4-induced calcium mobilization and inflammatory responses were enhanced in cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator-deficient cellular and animal models, suggesting that TRPV4 is a promising target for the development of new anti-inflammatory treatments for diseases such as CF.

Abstract
Previous studies have reported that interferon tau (IFNT) significantly mitigates tissue inflammation. However, this effect and its regulating pathways have not been reported for Staphylococcus aureus-induced inflammation. In this study, RAW 264.7 cells stimulated with S. aureus were used to identify the anti-inflammatory effects and mechanism of IFNT. First, IFNT was found to be noncytotoxic to macrophages treated with the high dose of 200 ng/mL IFNT. ELISA and qPCR revealed that IFNT decreased the expression of proinflammatory cytokines such as TNF-α, IL-1β, and IL-6. TLR2, which is involved in the immune response during S. aureus infection, directly affected NF-κB pathway activation and was also downregulated by IFNT. Subsequent Western blotting showed that the phosphorylation of IκBα and NF-κB p65 was inhibited by IFNT. Therefore, although the MMP9 levels were significantly downregulated in a dose-dependent manner by IFNT, little change in MMP2 was observed in S. aureus-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells. Furthermore, PDTC, an inhibitor of NF-κB, also significantly decreased MMP9 levels by inhibiting NF-κB p65 activation. All of these findings strongly suggested that IFNT suppresses the NF-κB/MMP9 signal transduction pathway and subsequently exerts its anti-inflammatory effects in S. aureus-stimulated RAW 264.7 cells.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute aortic dissection (AAD) patients usually show concurrent lung injury mainly featured by hyoxemia. To date, no effective treatment method has been established for the AAD complicated with acute lung injury (ALI). Matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), especially MMP2 and MMP9, have been considered to be closely related to the onset of aortic disease including AAD. To investigate the roles of MMP in the pathogenesis of AAD complicated with ALI, we determined the expression of MMP2 and MMP9 in serum and lung tissues of AAD patients. In addition, a new rat model of AAD complicated with ALI was established to investigate the pathogenesis of such complicated conditions. METHODS AND RESULTS Angiotensin II (Ang II) and MMP9 were up-regulated in the AAD complicated with ALI patients compared to those of the AAD without ALI patients, normal individuals and the patients with non-ruptured aneurysm. Besides, massive macrophages with MMP9 expression was noticed in the lung tissues in the AAD complicated with ALI patients. On this basis, AAD complicated with ALI rat model was established based on BAPN feeding and infusion of Ang II. Obvious lung injury was observed in the BAPN+Ang II group compared to that of the BAPN group, together with macrophage accumulation in lung tissues, as well as over-expression of MMP9 in lung tissues. After interference of MMP antagonist, a large number of macrophages were still accumulated in the lung tissues, but the lung injury was obviously attenuated. After the interference of AT1 receptor, the number of macrophages in the lung tissues was obviously decreased and the lung injury was obviously relieved. CONCLUSIONS Ang II is closely related to the lung injury at the early stage of AAD through mediating the release of MMP9 in the macrophages in the lung tissues.

Abstract
Objectives To determine whether bronchial colonisations/infections with periodontopathogenic bacteria are associated with elevated inflammatory markers such as MMPs, interleukins and Tumor necrosis factor alpha in the bronchial fluid. Methods Periodontal status was assessed in consecutive outpatients planned for elective bronchoscopies, and PCR for periodontopathogenic bacteria was performed from a protected specimen brush sample taken from the bronchial mucosa. Additionally, MMPs, interleukins and Tumor necrosis factor alpha were measured in the bronchial fluid. Results Out of the four species assessed, one species was found in 13 of 91 (14%) patients, and two in 12 (13%), three in 13 (14%) and all four in 1 (1%) patient, respectively. In multiple linear regression models the presence of Treponema denticola showed a consistent pattern of positive effects in bronchial fluid (Bonferroni adjusted p-values) on the levels of MMP9 (p adj.: 0.028) and MMP12 (p adj.: 0.029). Active smoking was independently associated with increased levels of aMMP8 (p adj.: 0.005) and MMP9 (p adj.: 0.009). Levels of IL-1 ß, IL-8 and Tumor necrosis factor alpha measured in the bronchial fluid were not affected by the presence of periodontopathogenic bacteria. Conclusions Bronchial colonisation/infection with Treponema denticola and smoking are independently associated with elevated MMPs (MMP9/MMP12 and MMP8/MMP9, respectively) in the bronchial fluid.

Abstract
Background It has been reported that collagenases (matrix metalloproteinase 2 [MMP-2] and matrix metalloproteinase 9 [MMP-9]) are associated with hair cycle, whereas the mechanism of the association is largely unknown. Methods The mice were randomly allocated into four groups: saline, and 5, 10, and 15 nM SB-3CT. Immunohistochemical analysis was employed to examine MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein. Real-time polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay were performed to determine mRNA and protein levels of VEGF, IGF-1, TGF-β, and GAPDH. Growing hair follicles from anagen phase III–IV were scored based on hematoxylin and eosin staining. Hair regrowth was also evaluated. Results Results showed that mRNA expressions of enzymes changed with a peak at late anagen and a trough at telogen after depilation. Immunostaining showed that the highest expression of MMP-2 was more than that of MMP-9, and the highest expression of enzymes changed during anagen. The localizations of MMP-2 changed from dermal papilla, keratinocyte strand, out of root sheath, and basal plate at early anagen, to hair bulb, inner root sheath, and outer root sheath at late anagen. The localization of MMP-9 changed from partial keratinocyte to dermal papilla at early anagen and to outer root sheath at late anagen. VEGF, IGF-1, and TGF-β have been shown to regulate hair growth. We found mRNA and protein expressions of VEGF and IGF-1 fluctuated with a peak at anagen and a decrease at catagen to telogen. In contrast, mRNA and protein expressions of TGF-β changed with highest and lowest levels at anagen and telogen, respectively. With selective inhibitor of collagenase IV, SB-3CT, mice showed significant suppressed hair growth and decreased expression of VEGF, IGF-1, and TGF-β. The MMPs agonist also significantly increased expression of VEGF, IGF-1, and TGF-β. Meanwhile, SB-3CT treatment significantly suppressed hair growth. Conclusion All these data suggest that the type IV collagenases, MMP-2 and MMP-9, play important roles in hair cycle, and this could be mediated by induced expression of VEGF, IGF-1, and TGF-β.
