Mohammed SAH, Mirdamadi M, Szucs KF, Gaspar R. Non-genomic actions of steroid hormones on the contractility of non-vascular smooth muscles. Biochem Pharmacol 2024; 222:116063. [PMID: 38373593 DOI: 10.1016/j.bcp.2024.116063] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/01/2023] [Revised: 01/03/2024] [Accepted: 02/16/2024] [Indexed: 02/21/2024]
Abstract
Steroid hormones play an important role in physiological processes. The classical pathway of steroid actions is mediated by nuclear receptors, which regulate genes to modify biological processes. Non-genomic pathways of steroid actions are also known, mediated by cell membrane-located seven transmembrane domain receptors. Sex steroids and glucocorticoids have several membrane receptors already identified to mediate their rapid actions. However, mineralocorticoids have no identified membrane receptors, although their rapid actions are also measurable. In non-vascular smooth muscles (bronchial, uterine, gastrointestinal, and urinary), the rapid actions of steroids are mediated through the modification of the intracellular Ca2+ level by various Ca-channels and the cAMP and IP3 system. The non-genomic action can be converted into a genomic one, suggesting that these distinct pathways may interconnect, resulting in convergence between them. Sex steroids mostly relax all the non-vascular smooth muscles, except androgens and progesterone, which contract colonic and urinary bladder smooth muscles, respectively. Corticosteroids also induce relaxation in bronchial and uterine tissues, but their actions on gastrointestinal and urinary bladder smooth muscles have not been investigated yet. Bile acids also contribute to the smooth muscle contractility. Although the therapeutic application of the rapid effects of steroid hormones and their analogues for smooth muscle contractility disorders seems remote, the actions and mechanism discovered so far are promising. Further research is needed to expand our knowledge in this field by using existing experience. One of the greatest challenges is to separate genomic and non-genomic effects, but model molecules are available to start this line of research.

Abstract
Gastroesophageal reflux (GER) occurs in most cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and is the primary source of bile aspiration in the airway tract of CF individuals. Aspirated bile is associated with the severity of lung diseases and chronic inflammation caused by Pseudomonas aeruginosa as the most common pathogen of CF respiratory tract infections. P. aeruginosa is equipped with several mechanisms to facilitate the infection process, including but not limited to the expression of virulence factors, biofilm formation, and antimicrobial resistance, all of which are under the strong regulation of quorum sensing (QS) mechanism. By increasing the expression of lasI, rhlI, and pqsA-E, bile exposure directly impacts the QS network. An increase in psl expression and pyocyanin production can promote biofilm formation. Along with the loss of flagella and reduced swarming motility, GER-derived bile can repress the expression of genes involved in creating an acute infection, such as expression of Type Three Secretion (T3SS), hydrogen cyanide (hcnABC), amidase (amiR), and phenazine (phzA-E). Inversely, to cause persistent infection, bile exposure can increase the Type Six Secretion System (T6SS) and efflux pump expression, which can trigger resistance to antibiotics such as colistin, polymyxin B, and erythromycin. This review will discuss the influence of aspirated bile on the pathogenesis, resistance, and persistence of P. aeruginosa in CF patients.

Abstract
The leading cause of many respiratory diseases is an ongoing and progressive inflammatory response. Traditionally, inflammatory lung diseases were studied primarily through animal models, cell cultures, and organoids. These technologies have certain limitations, despite their great contributions to the study of respiratory diseases. Precision-cut lung slices (PCLS) are thin, uniform tissue slices made from human or animal lung tissue and are widely used extensively both nationally and internationally as an in vitro organotypic model. Human lung slices bridge the gap between in vivo and in vitro models, and they can replicate the living lung environment well while preserving the lungs' basic structures, such as their primitive cells and trachea. However, there is no perfect model that can completely replace the structure of the human lung, and there is still a long way to go in the research of lung slice technology. This review details and analyzes the strengths and weaknesses of precision lung slices as an in vitro model for exploring respiratory diseases associated with inflammation, as well as recent advances in this field.

Abstract
The presence of bile acids in lung tissue is associated with some clinical features observed in various medical specialties, but it took time to understand that these are due to a "bile acid-induced lung injury" since specific translational studies and cross-disciplinary awareness were lacking. We used a reverse translational approach to update and summarize the current knowledge about the mechanisms of bile acid-induced lung injury. This has been done in a cross-disciplinary fashion since these conditions may occur in patients of various age and in different medical fields. We here define these clinical conditions, then we review the physiopathology of these conditions and the animal models used to mimic them and, finally, their pathobiology. Mechanisms of bile acid-induced lung injury have been partially clarified overtime and are represented by: 1) the interaction with secretory phospholipase A2 pathway, 2) the effect on surfactant function and structure, 3) the biological effects on inflammation and local immunity, 4) the direct cellular toxicity. These mechanisms are schematically illustrated and histological comparisons between ARDS induced by bile acids and other triggers are also provided. Based on these mechanisms we propose possible direct therapeutic applications and, finally, we discuss further research steps to improve the understanding of processes that generate pathological clinical conditions.

Abstract
Bile acids are specific and quantitatively important organic components of bile, which are synthesized by hepatocytes from cholesterol and are involved in the osmotic process that ensures the outflow of bile. Bile acids include many varieties of amphipathic acid steroids. These are molecules that play a major role in the digestion of fats and the intestinal absorption of hydrophobic compounds and are also involved in the regulation of many functions of the liver, cholangiocytes, and extrahepatic tissues, acting essentially as hormones. The biological effects are realized through variable membrane or nuclear receptors. Hepatic synthesis, intestinal modifications, intestinal peristalsis and permeability, and receptor activity can affect the quantitative and qualitative bile acids composition significantly leading to extrahepatic pathologies. The complexity of bile acids receptors and the effects of cross-activations makes interpretation of the results of the studies rather difficult. In spite, this is a very perspective direction for pharmacology.

Abstract
Bile acids (BAs) are known to be important regulators of intestinal motility and epithelial fluid and electrolyte transport. Over the past two decades, significant advances in identifying and characterizing the receptors, transporters, and ion channels targeted by BAs have led to exciting new insights into the molecular mechanisms involved in these processes. Our appreciation of BAs, their receptors, and BA-modulated ion channels as potential targets for the development of new approaches to treat intestinal motility and transport disorders is increasing. In the current review, we aim to summarize recent advances in our knowledge of the different BA receptors and BA-modulated ion channels present in the gastrointestinal system. We discuss how they regulate motility and epithelial transport, their roles in pathogenesis, and their therapeutic potential in a range of gastrointestinal diseases.

Abstract
Asthma affects millions of people worldwide and its prevalence is increasing. It is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway remodeling, and pathologic bronchoconstriction, and it poses a continuous treatment challenge with very few new therapeutics available. Thus, many asthmatics turn to plant-based complementary products, including ginger, for better symptom control, indicating an unmet need for novel therapies. Previously, we demonstrated that 6-shogaol (6S), the primary bioactive component of ginger, relaxes human airway smooth muscle (hASM) likely by inhibition of phosphodiesterases (PDEs) in the β-adrenergic (cyclic nucleotide PDEs), and muscarinic (phospholipase C, PLC) receptor pathways. However, oral 6S is extensively metabolized and it is unknown if the resulting metabolites remain bioactive. Here, we screened all the known human metabolites of 6S and several metabolite-based synthetic derivatives to better understand their mechanism of action and structure-function relationships. We demonstrate that several metabolites and metabolite-based synthetic derivatives are able to prevent Gq-coupled stimulation of intracellular calcium [Ca2+]i and inositol trisphosphate (IP3) synthesis by inhibiting PLC, similar to the parent compound 6S. We also show that these compounds prevent recontraction of ASM after β-agonist relaxation likely by inhibiting PDEs. Furthermore, they potentiate isoproterenol-induced relaxation. Importantly, moving beyond cell-based assays, metabolites also retain the functional ability to relax Gq-coupled-contractions in upper (human) and lower (murine) airways. The current study indicates that, although oral ginger may be metabolized rapidly, it retains physiological activity through its metabolites. Moreover, we are able to use naturally occurring metabolites as inspiration to develop novel therapeutics for brochoconstrictive diseases.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Duodeno-gastroesophageal reflux aspiration is associated with chronic lung allograft dysfunction (CLAD). Reflux aspirate can contain bile acids (BA), functional molecules in the gastro-intestinal tract with emulsifying properties. We sought to determine and quantify the various BA species in airways of the lung transplant recipients to better understand the various effects of aspirated BA that contribute to post-transplantation outcomes. METHODS Bronchial washings (BW) were prospectively collected from lung transplant recipients and subsequently assayed by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry for 13 BA and 25 lipid families. Patients were monitored for CLAD, rejection, inflammation and airway infections. RESULTS Detectable BA were present in 45/50 patients (90%) at 3 months after transplant. Elevated BA and predominance of conjugated species were independent predictors of CLAD (hazard ratio 7.9; 95% confidence interval 2.7-23.6; p < 0.001 and 7.3; 2.4-22; p < 0.001, respectively) and mortality (hazard ratio 4.4; 1.5-12.7; p = 0.007 and 4.8; 1.4-15.8; p = 0.01, respectively). High BA associated with increased positive bacterial cultures (60% vs 25%, p = 0.02). Primary conjugated species independently correlated with the rate of bacterial cultures during the first-year post-transplant (Beta coefficient: 0.77; 0.28-1.26; p = 0.003) and changes in airway lipidome and cytokines. CONCLUSIONS Higher BA levels and predominance of conjugated BA are independent predictors of chronic lung allograft dysfunction, mortality and bacterial infections. Primary conjugated BA are related to distinct changes in airway lipidome and inflammatory cytokines. This elucidates novel evidence into the mechanism following BA aspiration and proposes novel markers for prediction of adverse post-transplant outcomes.

Abstract
Three carriers of the solute carrier family SLC10 have been functionally characterized so far. Na+/taurocholate cotransporting polypeptide NTCP is a hepatic bile acid transporter and the cellular entry receptor for the hepatitis B and D viruses. Its intestinal counterpart, apical sodium-dependent bile acid transporter ASBT, is responsible for the reabsorption of bile acids from the intestinal lumen. In addition, sodium-dependent organic anion transporter SOAT specifically transports sulfated steroid hormones, but not bile acids. All three carriers show high sequence homology, but significant differences in substrate recognition that makes a systematic structure-activity comparison attractive in order to define the protein domains involved in substrate binding and transport. By using stably transfected NTCP-, ASBT-, and SOAT-HEK293 cells, systematic comparative transport and inhibition experiments were performed with more than 20 bile acid and steroid substrates as well as different inhibitors. Taurolithocholic acid (TLC) was identified as the first common substrate of NTCP, ASBT and SOAT with K m values of 18.4, 5.9, and 19.3 µM, respectively. In contrast, lithocholic acid was the only bile acid that was not transported by any of these carriers. Troglitazone, BSP and erythrosine B were identified as pan-SLC10 inhibitors, whereas cyclosporine A, irbesartan, ginkgolic acid 17:1, and betulinic acid only inhibited NTCP and SOAT, but not ASBT. The HBV/HDV-derived myr-preS1 peptide showed equipotent inhibition of the NTCP-mediated substrate transport of taurocholic acid (TC), dehydroepiandrosterone sulfate (DHEAS), and TLC with IC50 values of 182 nM, 167 nM, and 316 nM, respectively. In contrast, TLC was more potent to inhibit myr-preS1 peptide binding to NTCP with IC50 of 4.3 µM compared to TC (IC50 = 70.4 µM) and DHEAS (IC50 = 52.0 µM). Based on the data of the present study, we propose several overlapping, but differently active binding sites for substrates and inhibitors in the carriers NTCP, ASBT, SOAT.
