[PMID: 39137633 DOI: 10.1016/j.intimp.2024.112913] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/23/2024] [Revised: 07/27/2024] [Accepted: 08/06/2024] [Indexed: 08/15/2024]
Abstract
Chronic respiratory diseases such as Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) and asthma have posed a significant healthcare and economic cost over a prolonged duration worldwide. At present, available treatments are limited to a range of preventive medicines, such as mono- or multiple-drug therapy, which necessitates daily use and are not considered as viable treatments to reverse the inflammatory processes of airway remodelling which is inclusive of the alteration of intra and extracellular matrix of the airway tract, death of epithelial cells, the increase in smooth muscle cell and the activation of fibroblasts. Hence, with the problem in mind a considerable body of study has been dedicated to comprehending the underlying factors that contribute to inflammation within the framework of these disorders. Hence, adequate literature that has unveiled the necessary cellular probing to reduce inflammation in the respiratory tract by improving the selectivity and precision of a novel treatment. However, through cellular probing cellular mechanisms such as the downregulation of various markers, interleukin 8, (IL-8), Interleukin 6 (IL-6), interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) have been uncovered. Hence, to target such cellular probes implementation of phytoceuticals encapsulated in an advanced drug delivery system has shown potential to be a solution with in vitro and in vivo studies highlighting their anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. However, the high costs associated with advanced drug delivery systems and the limited literature focused exclusively on nanoparticles pose significant challenges. Additionally, the biochemical characteristics of phytoceuticals due to poor solubility, limited bioavailability, and difficulties in mass production makes it difficult to implement this product as a treatment for COPD and asthma. This study aims to examine the integration of many critical features in the context of their application for the treatment of chronic inflammation in respiratory disorders.

Abstract
Human intestinal epithelial cells are the interface between luminal content and basally residing immune cells. They form a tight monolayer that constantly secretes mucus creating a multilayered protective barrier. Alterations in this barrier can lead to increased permeability which is common in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients. However, it remains unexplored how the barrier is affected. Here, we present an in vitro model specifically designed to examine the effects of SLE on epithelial cells. We utilize human colon organoids that are stimulated with serum from SLE patients. Combining transcriptomic with functional analyses revealed that SLE serum induced an expression profile marked by a reduction of goblet cell markers and changed mucus composition. In addition, organoids exhibited imbalanced cellular composition along with enhanced permeability, altered mitochondrial function, and an interferon gene signature. Similarly, transcriptomic analysis of SLE colon biopsies revealed a downregulation of secretory markers. Our work uncovers a crucial connection between SLE and intestinal homeostasis that might be promoted in vivo through the blood, offering insights into the causal connection of barrier dysfunction and autoimmune diseases.

The development and characterization of in vivo-like three-dimensional models of bronchial epithelial cell lines. Eur J Pharm Sci 2023; 190:106567. [PMID: 37633341 DOI: 10.1016/j.ejps.2023.106567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/06/2023] [Revised: 08/16/2023] [Accepted: 08/18/2023] [Indexed: 08/28/2023]
Abstract
In vitro models of differentiated respiratory epithelium that allow high-throughput screening are an important tool to explore new therapeutics for chronic respiratory diseases. In the present study, we developed in vivo-like three-dimensional (3-D) models of bronchial epithelial cell lines that are commonly used to study chronic lung disease (16HBE14o-, CFBE41o- and CFBE41o- 6.2 WT-CFTR). To this end, cells were cultured on porous microcarrier beads in the rotating wall vessel (RWV) bioreactor, an optimized suspension culture method that allows higher throughput experimentation than other physiologically relevant models. Cell differentiation was compared to conventional two-dimensional (2-D) monolayer cultures and to the current gold standard in the respiratory field, i.e. air-liquid interface (ALI) cultures. Cellular differentiation was assessed in the three model systems by evaluating the expression and localization of markers that reflect the formation of tight junctions (zonula occludens 1), cell polarity (intercellular adhesion molecule 1 at the apical side and collagen IV expression at the basal cell side), multicellular complexity (acetylated α-tubulin for ciliated cells, CC10 for club cells, keratin-5 for basal cells) and mucus production (MUC5AC) through immunostaining and confocal laser scanning microscopy. Results were validated using Western Blot analysis. We found that tight junctions were expressed in 2-D monolayers, ALI cultures and 3-D models for all three cell lines. All tested bronchial epithelial cell lines showed polarization in ALI and 3-D cultures, but not in 2-D monolayers. Mucus secreting goblet-like cells were present in ALI and 3-D cultures of CFBE41o- and CFBE41o- 6.2 WT-CFTR cells, but not in 16HBE14o- cells. For all cell lines, there were no ciliated cells, basal cells, or club cells found in any of the model systems. In conclusion, we developed RWV-derived 3-D models of commonly used bronchial epithelial cell lines and showed that these models are a valuable alternative to ALI cultures, as they recapitulate similar key aspects of the in vivo parental tissue.

Abstract
The airway surface liquid (ASL) is a thin sheet of fluid that covers the luminal aspect of the airway epithelium. The ASL is a site of several first-line host defenses, and its composition is a key factor that determines respiratory fitness. Specifically, the acid-base balance of ASL has a major influence on the vital respiratory defense processes of mucociliary clearance and antimicrobial peptide activity against inhaled pathogens. In the inherited disorder cystic fibrosis (CF), loss of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) anion channel function reduces HCO3- secretion, lowers the pH of ASL (pHASL), and impairs host defenses. These abnormalities initiate a pathologic process whose hallmarks are chronic infection, inflammation, mucus obstruction, and bronchiectasis. Inflammation is particularly relevant as it develops early in CF and persists despite highly effective CFTR modulator therapy. Recent studies show that inflammation may alter HCO3- and H+ secretion across the airway epithelia and thus regulate pHASL. Moreover, inflammation may enhance the restoration of CFTR channel function in CF epithelia exposed to clinically approved modulators. This review focuses on the complex relationships between acid-base secretion, airway inflammation, pHASL regulation, and therapeutic responses to CFTR modulators. These factors have important implications for defining optimal ways of tackling CF airway inflammation in the post-modulator era.

Abstract
Defective CFTR biogenesis and activity in cystic fibrosis airways leads to airway dehydration and impaired mucociliary clearance, resulting in chronic airway infection and inflammation. Most cystic fibrosis patients have at least one copy of the F508del CFTR mutation, which results in a protein retained in the endoplasmic reticulum and degraded by the proteosomal pathway. CFTR modulators, e.g., correctors, promote the transfer of F508del to the apical membrane, while potentiators increase CFTR activity. Corrector and potentiator double therapies modestly improve lung function, whereas triple therapies with two correctors and one potentiator indicate improved outcomes. Enhanced F508del rescue by CFTR modulators is achieved by exposing F508del/F508del primary cultures of human bronchial epithelia to relevant inflammatory stimuli, i.e., supernatant from mucopurulent material or bronchoalveolar lavage fluid from human cystic fibrosis airways. Inflammation enhances the biochemical and functional rescue of F508del by double or triple CFTR modulator therapy and overcomes abrogation of CFTR correction by chronic VX-770 treatment in vitro. Furthermore, the impact of inflammation on clinical outcomes linked to CFTR rescue has been recently suggested. This review discusses these data and possible mechanisms for airway inflammation-enhanced F508del rescue. Expanding the understanding of how airway inflammation improves CFTR rescue may benefit cystic fibrosis patients.
