Abstract
PANoptosis is a newly defined programmed cell death (PCD) triggered by a series of stimuli, and it engages three well-learned PCD forms (pyroptosis, apoptosis, necroptosis) concomitantly. Normally, cell death is recognized as a strategy to eliminate unnecessary cells, inhibit the proliferation of invaded pathogens and maintain homeostasis; however, vigorous cell death can cause excessive inflammation and tissue damage. Acute lung injury (ALI) and chronic obstructive pulmonary syndrome (COPD) exacerbation is related to several pathogens (e.g., influenza A virus, SARS-CoV-2) known to cause PANoptosis. An understanding of the mechanism and specific regulators may help to address the pathological systems of these diseases. This review presents our understanding of the potential mechanism of PANoptosis and the role of PANoptosis in different pulmonary diseases.

Abstract
COPD, one of world's leading contributors to morbidity and mortality, is characterized by airflow limitation and heterogeneous clinical features. Three main phenotypes are proposed: overlapping asthma/COPD (ACO), exacerbator, and emphysema. Disease severity can be classified as mild, moderate, severe, and very severe. The molecular basis of inflammatory amplification, cellular aging, and immune response are critical to COPD pathogenesis. Our aim was to investigate EP300 (histone acetylase, HAT), HDAC 2 (histone deacetylase), HDAC3, and HDAC4 gene expression, telomere length, and differentiation ability to M1/M2 macrophages. For this investigation, 105 COPD patients, 42 smokers, and 73 non-smoker controls were evaluated. We identified a reduced HDAC2 expression in patients with mild, moderate, and severe severity; a reduced HDAC3 expression in patients with moderate and severe severity; an increased HDAC4 expression in patients with mild severity; and a reduced EP300 expression in patients with severe severity. Additionally, HDAC2 expression was reduced in patients with emphysema and exacerbator, along with a reduced HDAC3 expression in patients with emphysema. Surprisingly, smokers and all COPD patients showed telomere shortening. COPD patients showed a higher tendency toward M2 markers. Our data implicate genetic changes in COPD phenotypes and severity, in addition to M2 prevalence, that might influence future treatments and personalized therapies.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) is the third leading cause of death worldwide with no curative therapy. A non-canonical Notch ligand, DNER, has been recently identified in GWAS to associate with COPD severity, but its function and contribution to COPD is unknown. METHODS DNER localisation was assessed in lung tissue from healthy and COPD patients, and cigarette smoke (CS) exposed mice. Microarray analysis was performed on WT and DNER deficient M1 and M2 bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDM), and gene set enrichment undertaken. WT and DNER deficient mice were exposed to CS or filtered air for 3 day and 2 months to assess IFNγ-expressing macrophages and emphysema development. Notch and NFKB active subunits were quantified in WT and DNER deficient LPS-treated and untreated BMDM. FINDINGS Immunofluorescence staining revealed DNER localised to macrophages in lung tissue from COPD patients and mice. Human and murine macrophages showed enhanced DNER expression in response to inflammation. Interestingly, pro-inflammatory DNER deficient BMDMs exhibited impaired NICD1/NFKB dependent IFNγ signalling and reduced nuclear NICD1/NFKB translocation. Furthermore, decreased IFNγ production and Notch1 activation in recruited macrophages from CS exposed DNER deficient mice were observed, protecting against emphysema and lung dysfunction. INTERPRETATION DNER is a novel protein induced in COPD patients and 6 months CS-exposed mice that regulates IFNγ secretion via non-canonical Notch in pro-inflammatory recruited macrophages. These results provide a new pathway involved in COPD immunity that could contribute to the discovery of innovative therapeutic targets.

Abstract
Introduction: Polymorphonuclear eosinophil leucocytes (eosinophils) are found in increased numbers in the circulation and sputum in asthma patients, usually in relation to the severity of asthma but it is the question whether they have a significant role in the development and level of bronchial hyperreactivity in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Objective: to show the role of the eosinophils in the development and level of BHR in patients with COPD and so in the severity of illness. Material and methods: We observed 240 patients with COPD treated in Clinic for Pulmonary Diseases and TB «Podhrastovi» Sarajevo during five years: from 2012 to 2016. They were divided into groups and subgroups according to the first registration of BHR in the course of illness and to the number of exacerbations of the disease in one year. The number of blood eosinophils was measured at the onset of exacerbation of the disease before switching on any therapy, at the beginning and at the end of the research. Results: we did not find any significant difference in the eosinophil blood count between the COPD patients with and without BHR, nor according to the time of the first registration of BHR in the course of illness nor according to the number of exacerbations of illness per one year. There was not statistically significant difference in eosinophil count (increase-drop) within any of the groups or subgroups, or between the groups and subgroups between the first and last test. Conclusion: There is not significant correlation between the eosinophil blood count and the level of BHR, number of exacerbations and the severity of COPD.

Abstract
Previous study found the variable miR-3202 as a potential biomarker in smoker with or without chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). This study aims to identify the molecular involvement of miR-3202 in the pathophysiology of COPD. Level of miR-3202 in blood sample of non-smoker non-COPD(C), smoker without COPD(S), smoker with stable COPD(S-COPD) and smoker with acute exacerbation COPD(AE-COPD) was observed by quantitative real-time PCR. By bioinformatics prediction, Fas apoptotic inhibitory molecule 2 (FAIM2) was identified as a potential target of miR-3202. In vitro, human bronchial epithelial (HBE) cells and cigarette smoke extract (CSE) stimulated T lymphocytes were co-cultured. Cell proliferation and apoptosis of HBE cells were determinated. In vivo, rats were exposed in cigarette smoke for 30 days and expression of miR-3202 and FAIM2 in bronchia were detected. Results showed that The miR-3202 was down-regulated in S, S-COPD and AE-COPD group when compared with C group. Decreased level of miR-3202 was also observed in CSE treated T lymphocyte. Additionally, CSE stimulation increased INF-γ and TNF-α levels and FAIM2 expression whereas inhibited Fas and FasL expressions in T lymphocytes. However, these effects were significantly suppressed by miR-3202 overexpression and enhanced by miR-3202 inhibitor. Likely to exogenous miR-3202, FAIM2 knockdown significantly inhibited HBE cells apoptosis, as well as inhibited INF-γ and TNF-α levels. In COPD rats model, miR-3202 was reduced while FAIM2 was up-regulated accordingly. Here, results suggest that high level miR-3202 in T lymphocytes may protect epithelial cells through targeting FAIM2. MiR-3202 might be used as a notable biomarker of COPD.

Abstract
Background Increased interferon gamma (IFNγ) release occurs in Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) lungs. IFNγ supports optimal viral clearance, but if dysregulated could increase lung tissue destruction. Methods The present study investigates which mediators most closely correlate with IFNγ in sputum in stable and exacerbating disease, and seeks to shed light on the spatial requirements for innate production of IFNγ, as reported in mouse lymph nodes, to observe whether such microenvironmental cellular organisation is relevant to IFNγ production in COPD lung. Results We show tertiary follicle formation in severe disease alters the dominant mechanistic drivers of IFNγ production, because cells producing interleukin-18, a key regulator of IFNγ, are highly associated with such structures. Interleukin-1 family cytokines correlated with IFNγ in COPD sputum. We observed that the primary source of IL-18 in COPD lungs was myeloid cells within lymphoid aggregates and IL-18 was increased in severe disease. IL-18 released from infected epithelium or from activated myeloid cells, was more dominant in driving IFNγ when IL-18-producing and responder cells were in close proximity. Conclusions Unlike tight regulation to control infection spread in lymphoid organs, this local interface between IL-18-expressing and responder cell is increasingly supported in lung as disease progresses, increasing its potential to increase tissue damage via IFNγ.

Abstract
Since the discovery of IL-9 almost three decades back as a growth factor, we have come a long way to understand its pleiotropic functions in the immune system. Despite its many functions, IL-9 still remains as an understudied cytokine. In the last decade, renewed emphasis has been provided to understand the biology of IL-9. Any growth factor or cytokine signals via its cognate receptor to mediate biological functions. In this chapter, we discuss the IL-9 signal transduction in different cell types, which would then exert its distinct functions.

Abstract
Background Systemic inflammation and steroid resistance are the hallmarks of COPD. We examined the impact of p38 inhibitor (SB203580) in in vitro assays of systemic inflammation using pulmonary cells and patients’ sera. Objective and methods Data from 66 COPD patients and 15 age-/sex-matched healthy controls were compared. Interleukin-10 (IL-10), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), and CCL5 were measured in serum samples and culture media from peripheral blood mononuclear cells. The impact of sera on IL-10 and CCL5 expression in alveolar macrophage cell line (MH-S) was examined. The in vitro effects of SB203580 on lipopolysaccharide-induced inflammation were investigated. Results Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from Global initiative for chronic Obstructive Lung Disease (GOLD) D patients produced more CCL5 and TNF-α, and less IL-10 compared to GOLD A–C patients. SB203580 treatment suppressed CCL5 and TNF-α and stimulated IL-10 production; however, the effect of SB203580 on IL-10 was lower in the COPD group. Culture of MH-S cells with COPD serum showed a significant increase in CCL5 and a significant decrease in IL-10 compared to healthy serum. This effect was not suppressed with SB203580 treatment. Conclusion COPD serum has a potent proinflammatory effect on pulmonary cells. Inhibition of p38 phoshorylation had a limited effect in restoring impaired lymphocyte function and suppressing inflammation induced by COPD serum, implying important p38-independent inflammatory mechanisms in COPD.

Abstract
Large-conductance, calcium-activated, and voltage-gated K(+) (BK) channels are expressed in many tissues of the human body, where they play important roles in signaling not only in excitable but also in nonexcitable cells. Because BK channel properties are rendered in part by their association with four β and four γ subunits, their channel function can differ drastically, depending on in which cellular system they are expressed. Recent studies verify the importance of apically expressed BK channels for airway surface liquid homeostasis and therefore of their significant role in mucociliary clearance. Here, we review evidence that inflammatory cytokines, which contribute to airway diseases, can lead to reduced BK activity via a functional down-regulation of the γ regulatory subunit LRRC26. Therefore, manipulation of LRRC26 and pharmacological opening of BK channels represent two novel concepts of targeting epithelial dysfunction in inflammatory airway diseases.

Abstract
Human airway epithelial cells express pannexin 1 (Panx1) channels to release ATP, which regulates mucociliary clearance. Airway inflammation causes mucociliary dysfunction. Exposure of primary human airway epithelial cell cultures to IFN-γ for 48 h did not alter Panx1 protein expression but significantly decreased ATP release in response to hypotonic stress. The IFN-γ-induced functional down-regulation of Panx1 was due to the up-regulation of dual oxidase 2 (Duox2). Duox2 suppression by siRNA led to an increase in ATP release in control cells and restoration of ATP release in cells treated with IFN-γ. Both effects were reduced by the pannexin inhibitor probenecid. Duox2 up-regulation stoichiometrically increases H2O2 and proton production. H2O2 inhibited Panx1 function temporarily by formation of disulfide bonds at the thiol group of its terminal cysteine. Long-term exposure to H2O2, however, had no inhibitory effect. To assess the role of cellular acidification upon IFN-γ treatment, fully differentiated airway epithelial cells were exposed to ammonium chloride to alkalinize the cytosol. This led to a 2-fold increase in ATP release in cells treated with IFN-γ that was also inhibited by probenecid. Duox2 knockdown also partially corrected IFN-γ-mediated acidification. The direct correlation between intracellular pH and Panx1 open probability was shown in oocytes. Therefore, airway epithelial cells release less ATP in response to hypotonic stress in an inflammatory environment (IFN-γ exposure). Decreased Panx1 function is a response to cell acidification mediated by IFN-γ-induced up-regulation of Duox2, representing a novel mechanism for mucociliary dysfunction in inflammatory airway diseases.

Abstract
BACKGROUND COPD patients with increased airway eosinophilic inflammation show a favorable response to inhaled corticosteroids (ICS) in combination with a long-acting bronchodilator. Recent studies have demonstrated a significant correlation of sputum eosinophilia with blood eosinophils and periostin. We investigated whether high blood eosinophils and plasma periostin were associated with an improvement in forced expiratory volume in 1 second (FEV1) after 3-month treatment with ICS/long-acting beta2-agonist (LABA) in stable COPD patients. PATIENTS AND METHODS Blood eosinophils and plasma periostin levels were measured in 130 stable COPD subjects selected from the Korean Obstructive Lung Disease cohort. Subjects began a 3-month ICS/LABA treatment after washout period. RESULTS High blood eosinophils (>260/µL, adjusted odds ratio =3.52, P=0.009) and high plasma periostin (>23 ng/mL, adjusted odds ratio =3.52, P=0.013) were significantly associated with FEV1 responders (>12% and 200 mL increase in FEV1 from baseline after treatment). Moreover, the addition of high blood eosinophils to age, baseline positive bronchodilator response, and FEV1 <50% of the predicted value significantly increased the area under the curve for prediction of FEV1 responders (from 0.700 to 0.771; P=0.045). CONCLUSION High blood eosinophils and high plasma periostin were associated with improved lung function after 3-month ICS/LABA treatment. In particular, high blood eosinophils, in combination with age and baseline lung function parameters, might be a possible biomarker for identification of COPD patients with favorable FEV1 improvement in response to ICS/LABA treatment.

Abstract
Depression is highly prevalent in COPD patients, and both diseases are believed to be associated with inflammation. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of the immune system alterations in pathogenesis of depression in COPD patients. Blood was collected from patients diagnosed with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and comorbid depressive symptoms [COPD + DS, (N = 13)], from individuals with either COPD (N = 16) or recurrent depressive disorder (rDD) alone (N = 15), and from healthy controls (N = 19). Surface phenotype expression of T regulatory and T effector cells was analyzed with a flow cytometry, and IL-2, IL-6, IL-8, IFN-γ, IL-17, and neopterin were detected with ELISA. We demonstrated that COPD, depression, and COPD with comorbid depression are associated with increased IL-6 levels when compared with healthy controls 42.2 ± 1.87, 40.9 ± 2.12, 41.7 ± 1.31, and 33.2 ± 1.23 pg/ml, respectively (p < 0.05). A significant increase in neopterin levels was observed both in rDD and COPD patients when compared with controls (15.69 ± 0.095, 13.98 ± 0.887 vs. 9.22 ± 0.466 nmol/l, p < 0.001 and p < 0.05, respectively). Concentrations of IFN-γ were significantly increased in COPD + DS patients when compared with controls (24.3 ± 1.49 and 17.8 ± 0.70 pg/ml, respectively, p < 0.05). IL-2 levels were highest in COPD + DS (3.20 ± 0.389 pg/ml) and differed significantly when this group was compared with controls (2.20 ± 0.184 pg/ml), p ≤ 0.05). In this study, we demonstrated for the first time that depressive symptoms in COPD patients may be related to inflammatory state as confirmed by increased levels of IL-6 both in COPD and depression and also in COPD with comorbid depressive symptoms, despite the fact that the patients were treated with anti-inflammatory drugs and/or antidepressants. We also identified IFN-γ and IL-2 as putative inflammatory agents associated with depressive symptoms in COPD patients. Prospective studies will need to confirm whether measuring IL-2 and IFN-γ can identify COPD patients at risk of depression. These findings suggest that T helper cell 1-derived cellular immune activation may play significant role in developing depressive symptoms in COPD patients.

Abstract
Although chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an inflammatory disease predominantly involving T cells, no study of Rhodiola as an immunomodulator in COPD patients has been reported. In this study, COPD patients took Rhodiola crenulata 500 mg (n = 38) or placebo (starch/phosphate buffered saline) (n = 19) daily for 12 weeks and were compared with untreated, age-matched, and sex-matched non-COPD control subjects. Our results showed that serum levels of IL-2, IL-10, and IFN-γ in COPD patients before treatment are significantly higher than levels in non-COPD controls (p < 0.05). A significant decrease in IFN-γ was seen in the Rhodiola treatment group (p < 0.05) but not in the placebo group (p > 0.05). The results suggested that Rhodiola treatment had beneficial antiinflammation effects, lower COPD assessment test score and decreased high-sensitivity C-reactive protein, on COPD patients (p < 0.05). The effects of Rhodiola treatment on COPD patients were shown to decrease the IFN-γ concentration and CD8(+) count but increase the expressions of CD4(+) CD25(+) FOXP3(+) and CD4(+) CD25(+) CD45(+) FOXP3(+) in the blood significantly (p < 0.05). This is the first trial using Rhodiola as a complementary therapy for COPD patients. T cells play an important role in the pathogenesis of COPD through the increased expression of CD8(+) T cells and IFN-γ and may be a viable target for potential therapy.

Abstract
Cytokines play an important part in many pathobiological processes of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), including the chronic inflammatory process, emphysema, and altered innate immune response. Proinflammatory cytokines of potential importance include tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interferon-γ, interleukin (IL)-1β, IL-6, IL-17, IL-18, IL-32, and thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP), and growth factors such as transforming growth factor-β. The current objectives of COPD treatment are to reduce symptoms, and to prevent and reduce the number of exacerbations. While current treatments achieve these goals to a certain extent, preventing the decline in lung function is not currently achievable. In addition, reversal of corticosteroid insensitivity and control of the fibrotic process while reducing the emphysematous process could also be controlled by specific cytokines. The abnormal pathobiological process of COPD may contribute to these fundamental characteristics of COPD, and therefore targeting cytokines involved may be a fruitful endeavor. Although there has been much work that has implicated various cytokines as potentially playing an important role in COPD, there have been very few studies that have examined the effect of specific cytokine blockade in COPD. The two largest studies that have been reported in the literature involve the use of blocking antibody to TNFα and CXCL8 (IL-8), and neither has provided benefit. Blocking the actions of CXCL8 through its CXCR2 receptor blockade was not successful either. Studies of antibodies against IL-17, IL-18, IL-1β, and TSLP are currently either being undertaken or planned. There is a need to carefully phenotype COPD and discover good biomarkers of drug efficacy for each specific target. Specific groups of COPD patients should be targeted with specific anticytokine therapy if there is evidence of high expression of that cytokine and there are features of the clinical expression of COPD that will respond.

Abstract
Effective mucociliary clearance (MCC) depends in part on adequate airway surface liquid (ASL) volume to maintain an appropriate periciliary fluid height that allows normal ciliary activity. Apically expressed large-conductance, Ca(2+)-activated, and voltage-dependent K(+) (BK) channels provide an electrochemical gradient for Cl(-) secretion and thus play an important role for adequate airway hydration. Here we show that IFN-γ decreases ATP-mediated apical BK activation in normal human airway epithelial cells cultured at the air-liquid interface. IFN-γ decreased mRNA levels of KCNMA1 but did not affect total protein levels. Because IFN-γ upregulates dual oxidase (DUOX)2 and therefore H2O2 production, we hypothesized that BK inactivation could be mediated by BK oxidation. However, DUOX2 knockdown did not affect the IFN-γ effect on BK activity. IFN-γ changed mRNA levels of the BK β-modulatory proteins KCNMB2 (increased) and KCNMB4 (decreased) as well as leucine-rich repeat-containing protein (LRRC)26 (decreased). Mallotoxin, a BK opener only in the absence of LRRC26, showed that BK channels lost their association with LRRC26 after IFN-γ treatment. Finally, IFN-γ caused a decrease in ciliary beating frequency that was immediately rescued by apical fluid addition, suggesting that it was due to ASL volume depletion. These data were confirmed with direct ASL measurements using meniscus scanning. Overexpression of KCNMA1, the pore-forming subunit of BK, overcame the reduction of ASL volume induced by IFN-γ. Key experiments were repeated in cystic fibrosis cells and showed the same results. Therefore, IFN-γ induces mucociliary dysfunction through BK inactivation.

Abstract
IL-27 is involved in inflammatory reactions. CXCL10 is an important chemokine contributing to airway inflammatory disease. In this study, we investigated whether IL-27 modulated the synthesis of CXCL10 in primary human lung fibroblasts (HLFs). HLFs were activated by IL-27 alone, or in combination with other cytokines. CXCL10 synthesis was measured by real-time PCR and ELISA. An examination of transcriptional regulation was performed via the transient transfection of promoter constructs, whereas mRNA stability was assessed by actinomycin D chase and real-time PCR. The underlying signaling pathways were studied by Western blotting and intracellular staining, using flow cytometry. Our results demonstrated that IL-27 induced and synergized with TNF-α to up-regulate CXCL10 mRNA and protein concentrations in a steroid-insensitive manner. This synergistic CXCL10 production was dependent on the transcriptional regulation of CXCL10 gene promoter activity and the enhanced stability of CXCL10 mRNA because of IL-27 and TNF-α, and this synergism was regulated by the activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) and phosphatidylinositol 3-OH kinase (PI3K)-Akt dominantly, and in small part via NF-κB. Interestingly, IL-27 promoted the basal and enhanced TNF-α-induced phosphorylation of p38 MAPK and Akt, but not IκBα. Moreover, enhanced CXCL10 mRNA stability occurred via a p38 MAPK-dependent pathway. Finally, clinical analysis showed that IL-27 was detected in the bronchoalveolar lavage of patients with asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and pulmonary tuberculosis (PTB), and increased IL-27 concentrations were correlated with increased CXCL10 concentrations in patients with COPD and PTB. Our findings suggest that IL-27 has the potential to amplify airway inflammation via the induction of CXCL10 from HLFs, in combination with TNF-α.

Abstract
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE IFN-γ levels are increased in chronic obstructive airway disease (COPD) patients compared with healthy subjects and are further elevated during viral exacerbations. IFN-γ can 'prime' macrophages to enhance the response to toll-like receptor (TLR) ligands, such as LPS. The aim of this study was to examine the effect IFN-γ on corticosteroid sensitivity in alveolar macrophages (AM). EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH AM from non-smokers, smokers and COPD patients were stimulated with IFN-γ and/or LPS with or without dexamethasone. IL-6, TNF-α and IFN-γ-induced protein 10 kDa (IP-10) levels were measured by elisa, and Western blots were used to investigate the IFN-γ-stimulated Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) signalling pathway. Real-time PCR and flow cytometry were used to investigate TLR levels following IFN-γ treatment. KEY RESULTS In all three subject groups, IFN-γ alone had no effect on IL-6 and TNF-α production but enhanced the effects of LPS on these cytokines. In contrast, IFN-γ alone increased the production of IP-10. IFN-γ increased TLR2 and TLR4 expression in AM. Cytokine induction and STAT1 activation by IFN-γ were insensitive to dexamethasone for all groups. The inhibition of JAK and STAT1 repressed all these IFN-γ effects. CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS Our results demonstrate that IFN-γ-induced STAT-1 signalling is corticosteroid resistant in AMs, and that targeting IFN-γ signalling by JAK inhibitors is a potentially novel anti-inflammatory strategy in COPD.

Abstract
BACKGROUND There are increased numbers of activated lymphocytes in the lungs of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) patients. The clinical benefits of corticosteroids in COPD patients are limited. Our hypothesis is that lymphocytes play a role in this corticosteroid insensitivity. OBJECTIVES To investigate the effects of the corticosteroid dexamethasone on lung lymphocyte cytokine production from patients with COPD compared to controls. METHODS Cultured airway lymphocytes obtained by bronchoscopy from healthy non-smokers (HNS), smokers (S) and COPD patients were stimulated with phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) & phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), +/- dexamethasone. Supernatants were assayed for interleukin (IL)-2 and interferon (IFN)γ. Immunofluoresence was used to analyse changes in CD8 glucocorticoid receptor (GRα and GRβ) expression. RESULTS The inhibition of PHA/PMA stimulated IFNγ production by dexamethasone was reduced in COPD patients compared to HNS (p < 0.05 at concentrations from 0.1-1 μM). There was also a significant reduction (p < 0.05) in the mean inhibitory effect at 1 μM in COPD patients (54.1%) compared to smokers (72.1%), and in smokers compared to HNS (85.5%). There was a numerically reduced effect of dexamethasone on IL-2 production that did not reach statistical significance. There was no difference in GRα and GRβ expression in follicular CD8 cells between COPD patients (50.9% and 30.4% respectively) and smokers (52.9% and 29.7% respectively). CONCLUSIONS IFNγ production from COPD airway lymphocytes is corticosteroid insensitive. This phenomenon may be important in the poor clinical response often observed with corticosteroids.

Abstract
Background The role of IL-27 in the pathogenesis of airway inflammatory diseases remains elusive. We, therefore, have studied its concentrations in the sputum and plasma of patients with COPD and patients with pulmonary TB (PTB), and further investigated the mechanism-of-action effects of IL-27 on bronchial epithelial cells in vitro. Methods Human bronchial epithelial cells grown on air-liquid interface culture were activated by IL-27, alone, or in combination with other inflammatory cytokines in the presence or absence of various signaling molecule inhibitors. The expression of CXCL10 was detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The underlying signaling pathways were studied by intracellular staining using flow cytometry, Western blot, ELISA, or siRNA. Results Significantly higher sputum and plasma concentrations of IL-27 were found in patients with COPD (n = 34; P < .01 and P < .001, respectively) or patients with PTB (n = 31; P < .01 and P < .001, respectively) than in healthy control subjects (n = 48). Sputum, but not plasma, IL-27 levels in patients with COPD correlated negatively with FEV1 (r = −0.51, P < .01). Sputum, but not plasma, IL-27 in patients with PTB correlated positively with mycobacterial load in sputum (r = 0.48, P < .05). Further in vitro studies demonstrated that IL-27 could induce gene and protein expression of CXCL10 in bronchial epithelial cells, which was regulated by the activation of the phosphatidylinositol 3-OH kinase (PI3K)-Akt signaling pathway. Conclusions The production of IL-27 is related to the pathogenesis of COPD and PTB, and IL-27 induces the expression of CXCL10 in bronchial epithelial cells through the activation of the PI3K-Akt signaling pathway.

Abstract
Both chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer are major causes of death worldwide. In most cases this reflects cigarette smoke exposure which is able to induce an inflammatory response in the airways of smokers. Indeed, COPD is characterized by lower airway inflammation, and importantly, the presence of COPD is by far the greatest risk factor for lung cancer amongst smokers. Cigarette smoke induces the release of many inflammatory mediators and growth factors including TGF-β, EGFR, IL-1, IL-8 and G-CSF through oxidative stress pathways and this inflammation may persist for decades after smoking cessation. Mucus production is also increased by these inflammatory mediators, further linking airway inflammation to an important mechanism of lung cancer. A greater understanding of the molecular and cellular pathobiology that distinguishes smokers with lung cancer from smokers with and without COPD is needed to unravel the complex molecular interactions between COPD and lung cancer. By understanding the common signalling pathways involved in COPD and lung cancer the hope is that treatments will be developed that not only treat the underlying disease process in COPD, but also reduce the currently high risk of developing lung cancer in these patients.

Abstract
Activation of Toll-like receptors (TLR) seems to be involved in the pathogenesis of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Upon TLR activation the release of defensins, including human beta defensin 2 (HBD-2), may occur. In this study, we explored the innate responses in patients with respiratory failure, with and without COPD, requiring intubation and mechanical ventilation. Mini-bronchoalveolar lavage (mini-BAL) samples were collected from nonsmoker subjects without COPD (n = 10), smokers without COPD (n = 6), and smokers with COPD (n = 15). TLR4, TLR2, and HBD-2 expression was evaluated by immunocytochemistry; interleukin (IL)-8, IP-10, and HBD-2 concentrations were evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay; chemotactic activity toward neutrophils and lymphocytes; and cell apoptosis was evaluated by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling [TUNEL] and by flow cytometry with anti-TLR4 and with HBD-2 depleted and not depleted mini-BAL). COPD mini-BAL showed increased neutrophil numbers, reduced neutrophil apoptosis, increased TLR4 and HBD-2 expression, increased neutrophil chemotactic activity, reduced IP-10 concentrations, and reduced lymphocyte chemotactic activity compared with those in nonsmoker subjects without COPD. In the smokers without COPD the mini-BAL showed reduced TLR4 and HBD-2 expression, higher IP-10 concentrations, and higher chemotactic activity than in patients with COPD. The blocking of TLR4 activation and HBD-2 depletion increased neutrophil apoptosis. No differences were observed for TLR2 expression and IL-8 concentrations. This study strengthens the contribution of TLR4 to promoting airway neutrophilia in COPD.

Abstract
Gamma-glutamyl transferase (GGT) is a clinical marker of biliary disease, but is also of importance in anti-oxidant metabolic pathways and, consequently, is a potential biomarker of oxidative stress in COPD. Serum GGT is increased in alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency (AATD) but this could reflect a hepatic, systemic or pulmonary origin. We aimed to investigate the relationship between serum GGT, lung disease, liver disease and mortality in subjects with AATD. Serum GGT was measured at the baseline assessment in 334 PiZ subjects from the UK AATD registry, and related to static lung function, chronic bronchitis, sputum purulence, history of acute exacerbations, smoking status, mortality, alcohol consumption, cirrhosis and serum markers of liver disease. GGT correlated with airflow obstruction and was associated with chronic bronchitis. GGT levels were higher in current smokers compared with ex-smokers and never smokers, and in non-survivors compared with survivors. Although GGT related to alcohol consumption and established liver disease, it was independently related to FEV(1), mortality, smoking history and male gender. In conclusion, although serum GGT reflects the presence of liver disease it is independently associated with airflow obstruction and mortality. Further studies are needed to establish the role of GGT in oxidative lung injury, and its use as a potential biomarker in chronic inflammatory lung disease.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Airway inflammation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is predominately neutrophilic, but some subjects demonstrate eosinophilic airway inflammation. Whether these inflammatory phenotypes have differential cytokine and chemokine expression is unknown. OBJECTIVES To assess the sputum concentrations of cytokines and chemokines and their response to oral corticosteroid therapy in COPD subjects with or without a sputum eosinophilia. METHODS Cytokine and chemokine concentrations were measured using the meso-scale device platform. To assess validity, recovery of exogenous spikes was examined. The concentrations of the validated mediators were measured in COPD sputum from subjects with or without a sputum eosinophilia. In a subgroup with a sputum eosinophilia, the response to oral prednisolone 10 mg for 1 month was examined. RESULTS The recovery in sputum of exogenous spiked mediators was >80% in 11/26 cytokines and chemokines. In supernatants from eosinophilic (n = 39) versus non-eosinophilic (n = 59) sputa, the geometric mean (95% CI) concentration was increased for IL-5 [9.0 (4.5-18) pg/ml vs. 3.6 (2.7-6.3) pg/ml, p = 0.03]. IL-5 alone was correlated with sputum eosinophil counts (r = 0.33, p = 0.001), and was attenuated following treatment with prednisolone [n = 9; mean difference 2.3 pg/ml (0.2-4.3), p = 0.032]. CONCLUSION We have validated the use of the meso-scale device platform for cytokine and chemokine measurements in the sputum supernatants in COPD. Sputum IL-5 was associated with a sputum eosinophilia and was attenuated following oral corticosteroid therapy. Whether this cytokine is important in the pathogenesis of COPD in a subgroup of patients warrants further investigation.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a treatable and preventable disease state, characterised by progressive airflow limitation that is not fully reversible. Although COPD is primarily a disease of the lungs there is now an appreciation that many of the manifestations of disease are outside the lung, leading to the notion that COPD is a systemic disease. Currently, diagnosis of COPD relies on largely descriptive measures to enable classification, such as symptoms and lung function. Here the limitations of existing diagnostic strategies of COPD are discussed and systems biology approaches to diagnosis that build upon current molecular knowledge of the disease are described. These approaches rely on new 'label-free' sensing technologies, such as high-throughput surface plasmon resonance (SPR), that we also describe.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by an abnormal persistent inflammatory response to cigarette smoke. This noxious insult leads to emphysema and airway remodeling, manifested by squamous and mucous metaplasia of the epithelium, smooth muscle hypertrophy, and airway wall fibrosis. These pathologic abnormalities interact synergistically to cause progressive airflow obstruction. Although it has been accepted that the spectrum of COPD is vast, the reasons for the development of different phenotypes from the same exposure to cigarette smoke have not been determined. Furthermore, it is becoming increasingly clear that airways disease and emphysema often coexist in many patients, even with a clear clinical phenotype of either emphysema or chronic bronchitis. Recent studies have focused on the nature of the inflammatory response to cigarette smoke, the inflammatory cell lines responsible for COPD pathogenesis, and new biomarkers for disease activity and progression. New cytokines are being discovered, and the complex interactions among them are being unraveled. The inflammatory biomarker that has received the most attention is C-reactive protein, but new ones that have caught our attention are interleukin (IL)-6, tumor necrosis factor-alpha, IL-8, and IL-10. Further research should focus on how these new concepts in lung inflammation interact to cause the various aspects of COPD pathology.

Abstract
BACKGROUND T lymphocytes and especially the subpopulations of CD8+ cells are believed to have a key role in COPD pathophysiology, but there are only few data regarding the role of these cells in COPD exacerbation. AIM We aimed to study prospectively changes of CD8+ T-lymphocyte subpopulations in the sputum of COPD patients at the onset of mild exacerbations and at a stable condition in order to provide further insight in the pathophysiology of the disease. METHODS Induced-sputum samples were collected from 24 COPD patients with median age of 52 years (interquartile range [IQR], 44 to 58 years) and FEV(1) percentage of predicted of 78.05% (IQR, 75.8 to 80.1%) at the onset of mild exacerbations not requiring hospitalization and when stable. Inflammatory cells and T-lymphocyte subpopulations (CD4+, CD8+, and cells producing interferon [IFN]-gamma or interleukin [IL]-4) were measured using flow cytometry and immunocytochemical methods. RESULTS A significant increase in sputum CD8+ T lymphocytes (p < 0.0001) and significant decreases in CD4+ T lymphocytes as well as in CD4+/CD8+ (p = 0.0001) and CD8+IFN-gamma+/CD8+IL-4+ (p = 0.001), CD4+IFN-gamma+/CD4+IL-4+ (p = 0.0003) sputum cells ratios were found decreased at the onset of exacerbations compared to stable condition. The changes in T-lymphocyte subpopulations were not associated with smoking history, demographic characteristics, or disease severity. CONCLUSION The findings of the present study suggest that CD8+ lymphocytes are increased and potentially polarized toward a Tc2 profile in the airways of COPD patients at the onset of COPD exacerbations with respect to stable condition. The clinical impact of the observed phenomenon requires further investigation.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a complex inflammatory disease with a myriad of pulmonary and nonpulmonary disease manifestations. COPD is a heterogeneous disease consisting of emphysematous destruction, airway inflammation, remodeling, and obstruction. Once conceptualized as a unidimensional disease isolated to the lung, it is now recognized to have significant systemic manifestations, such as osteoporosis, cardiovascular disease, and skeletal muscle wasting. As the clinical phenotypic expressions of COPD become more precisely characterized, so does the pathogenesis of this disease. Great strides are now being made in our understanding of genetic susceptibility, airway inflammation, the immune response to cigarette smoke, and inflammatory biomarkers. This review will discuss the most recent progress on selected topics in COPD pathogenesis, inflammation, and genetics. With time, we hope to expand our current understanding to predict who will develop disease and who will not, and why some patients develop particular disease phenotypes. In addition, we hope to clarify the inflammatory mechanisms involved in order to develop novel therapies and identify disease biomarkers that will lead to better tools for monitoring disease activity. Finally, we hope to develop treatments aimed at lung regeneration and repair, to reverse lung damage that has already occurred. We are optimistic that novel therapies like gene therapy and advanced antiinflammatory agents will be in our future. Judging by the progress made in the last decade, these tools may soon become a reality.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Emphysema induced by cigarette smoking is characterized by an inflammatory process, which is resistant to steroid and remains active in lung tissue long after smoking has stopped. Latent adenoviral infection (Ad5) increases emphysema development and the inflammatory response to cigarette smoke and, in allergic lung inflammation, suppresses anti-inflammatory effects of steroids. OBJECTIVES The present study was designed to examine the effect of smoking cessation and steroid treatment on lung emphysema and inflammation in a guinea pig model of emphysema and to determine if latent adenoviral infection induces resistance to the inflammatory effects of steroid. METHODS Latent adenovirus or sham infected animals exposed to room air or cigarette smoke for 16 weeks were either sacrificed immediately or treated with dexamethasone or diluent for an additional 5 weeks without smoke exposure. Lung morphometry, inflammatory cells and mediators were studied. RESULTS Smoking cessation was associated with an increase in lung surface area and surface area to volume ratio. Smoking cessation was also associated with decreases in lung neutrophils, CD4 cells, and IL-8, RANTES and IFN-gamma mRNAs to control levels. Steroid treatment significantly lowered neutrophils, eosinophils and IFN-gamma mRNA and, while adenoviral infection did not alter these steroid-induced changes, it independently increased airway wall neutrophils and CD8 cells. CONCLUSION Smoking cessation decreases lung inflammation and latent adenoviral infection does not induce steroid resistance in this animal model.

Abstract
The pathogenesis of chronic inflammatory diseases is assumed to depend on activated T cells interacting with resident tissue cells or migratory inflammatory cells. The discovery of new T-cell subsets such as the IL-17-producing T(H)17 and T-regulatory cells innovated our understanding of T-cell biology. Studies on new subsets confirm the important role of T cells in the instruction of tissue cells and also demonstrate the important role of feedback regulation for the polarization toward distinct T-cell subsets. The understanding of IL-17 and T(H)17 differentiation pathways has also changed the perspective of immunologists regarding the basis of chronic tissue inflammation, particularly where T(H)1 cells were considered as driving force of the pathology. This review summarizes the recent developments on T(H) cell subsets and integrates these findings into existing concepts of immunopathologic mechanisms.

Abstract
The contribution of environmental factors is important as we consider reasons that underlie differential susceptibility to influenza virus. Aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) activation by the pollutant dioxin during influenza virus infection decreases survival, which correlates with a 4-fold increase in pulmonary IFN-gamma levels. We report here that the majority of IFN-gamma-producing cells in the lung are neutrophils and macrophages not lymphocytes, and elevated IFN-gamma is associated with increased pulmonary inducible NO synthase (iNOS) levels. Moreover, we show that even in the absence of dioxin, infection with influenza virus elicits IFN-gamma production by B cells, gammadelta T cells, CD11c(+) cells, macrophages and neutrophils, as well as CD3(+) and NK1.1(+) cells in the lung. Bone marrow chimeric mice reveal that AhR-mediated events external to hemopoietic cells direct dioxin-enhanced IFN-gamma production. We also show that AhR-mediated increases in IFN-gamma are dependent upon iNOS, but elevated iNOS in lung epithelial cells is not driven by AhR-dependent signals from bone marrow-derived cells. Thus, the lung contains important targets of AhR regulation, which likely influence a novel iNOS-mediated mechanism that controls IFN-gamma production by phagocytic cells. This suggests that AhR activation changes the response of lung parenchymal cells, such that regulatory pathways in the lung are cued to respond inappropriately during infection. These findings also imply that environmental factors may contribute to differential susceptibility to influenza virus and other respiratory pathogens.

Abstract
Thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) is a novel cytokine that triggers dendritic cell-mediated T helper (Th)-2 inflammatory responses. Previous studies have demonstrated that human airway smooth muscle cells (HASMC) play a critical role in initiating or perpetuating airway inflammation by producing chemokines and cytokines. In this study, we first evaluated the expression of TSLP in primary HASMC and investigated how proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-alpha and IL-1beta) and Th-2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-9) regulate TSLP production from HASMC. TSLP mRNA and protein were assessed by real-time RT-PCR, ELISA, and immunofluorescence from primary HASMC cultures. Primary HASMC express constitutive level of TSLP. Incubation of HASMC with IL-1 or TNF-alpha resulted in a significant increase of TSLP mRNA and protein release from HASMC. Furthermore, combination of IL-1beta and TNF-alpha has an additive effect on TSLP release by HASMC. Primary HASMC pretreated with inhibitors of p38 or p42/p44 ERK MAPK, but not phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase, showed a significant decrease in TSLP release on IL-1beta and TNF-alpha treatment. Furthermore, TSLP immunoreactivity was present in ASM bundle from chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and to lesser degree in normal subjects. Taken together, our data provide the first evidence of IL-1beta- and TNF-alpha-induced TSLP expression in HASMC via (p38, p42/p44) MAPK signaling pathways. Our results raise the possibility that HASMC may play a role in COPD airway inflammation via TSLP-dependent pathway.

Abstract
BACKGROUND IL-17F is involved in airway inflammation, but its biologic activity and signaling pathway remain incompletely defined. Interferon-gamma-inducible protein 10 (IP-10) is widely expressed and plays a role in airway inflammatory diseases. OBJECTIVE We sought to investigate the functional linkage between IL-17F and IP-10 expression in bronchial epithelial cells. METHODS Bronchial epithelial cells were cultured in the presence or absence of IL-17F, and/or a T(H)1 cytokine, T(H)2 cytokines, proinflammatory cytokines, various kinase inhibitors, or a Raf1 dominant-negative mutant to analyze the expression of IP-10. Moreover, the involvement of p90 ribosomal S6 kinase (p90RSK) and cyclic AMP response element-binding protein (CREB) in IL-17F-induced IP-10 expression were investigated. RESULTS IL-17F induces the gene and protein expression of IP-10. The addition of IFN-gamma, IL-1beta, and TNF-alpha augmented IL-17F-induced IP-10 expression. The mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase (MEK) inhibitors PD98059, U0126, and Raf1 kinase inhibitor I significantly inhibited its production. In contrast, a p38 inhibitor, a JNK inhibitor, protein kinase C inhibitors, and a phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase inhibitor, showed no inhibitory effect. Furthermore, overexpression of a Raf1 dominant-negative mutant inhibited its expression. Of interest, IL-17F phosphorylated p90RSK and CREB, and transfection of the cells with a short interfering RNA for p90RSK or CREB inhibited its expression, suggesting p90RSK and CREB as novel signaling molecules of IL-17F. CONCLUSION IL-17F is a potent inducer of IP-10 in bronchial epithelial cells through the activation of the Raf1-MEK1/2-extracellular signal-regulated kinase 1/2-p90RSK-CREB pathway, supporting its regulatory role in airway inflammation. CLINICAL IMPLICATIONS The IL-17F-IP-10 axis might be a novel and critical therapeutic target for airway inflammatory diseases.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is an increasing global health problem for which there are no effective disease-modifying therapies. COPD involves chronic inflammation of small airways and lung parenchyma, with the recruitment of inflammatory cells. This inflammatory-cell trafficking is orchestrated by multiple chemokines, so the blockade of chemokine receptors with selective antagonists might be an effective anti-inflammatory strategy in this disease. Several studies support the implication of several chemokines and their receptors in COPD, including chemokine receptors CXCR2 and CXCR3, with small-molecule receptor antagonists that are in development being potential anti-inflammatory therapies. Such a pharmacological strategy would provide a mechanism with which to inhibit leukocyte recruitment and, hence, reduce the inflammatory profile in COPD, which is currently unaffected by pharmacotherapy.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a pathological condition that involves excessive production of mucus, chronic cough and inflammatory changes leading to airway limitation. The most common cause of COPD is cigarette smoking. COPD can be categorized into either chronic bronchitis or emphysema; both conditions can be differentiated by age and the production of copious, tenacious sputum. Patients with COPD are susceptible to pulmonary infections of bacterial or viral origin. Nurses should be aware of the subtle differences in conditions and the usefulness of antibiotics in the treatment of acute bacterial exacerbations of chronic bronchitis.

Abstract
Reactive oxygen species have been reported to be involved in the airway inflammatory process of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). The aim of this study was to quantify the activity of xanthine oxidase (XO), which generates a potent radical superoxide anion in COPD airways. Thirteen stable COPD patients and 10 healthy subjects participated in this study. We collected the epithelial lining fluid using a newly developed microsampling technique, and quantified of cytokines responsible for the XO gene upregulation. The XO activity was significantly increased in COPD patients compared with that in healthy subjects. A significant negative correlation was found between the XO activity and the %FEV1 values. The level of tumor necrosis factor-alpha, interleukin-1beta, and interferon-gamma in COPD patients was significantly higher than that in healthy subjects. Both the amount of tumor necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-1beta were significantly correlated with the degree of XO activity. These results suggest that the XO activity is increased in COPD airways, possibly due to its gene upregulation by proinflammatory cytokines. Because the XO activity was significantly correlated with the degree of airway obstruction, these cytokine-XO production pathways may play a key role in the inflammation of COPD.

Abstract
Airway inflammation is central to the pathogenesis of both airway remodelling and parenchymal destruction in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). Neutrophils, macrophages, and CD8+ T lymphocytes have been implicated in a number of studies, but a detailed profile of disease-phenotype specific inflammation has yet to emerge. The heterogeneity of the disease has hindered data interpretation while extrapolation of the results of relatively non-invasive studies to the actual pathology found in the distal lung is difficult. Moreover, prominent studies have had frequently conflicting results. Further investigations are needed to marry the different clinical phenotypes of COPD to their respective inflammatory profiles in the airways and thus improve our understanding of the pathogenesis of the disease as a whole.

Abstract
There has been increasing interest in using pulmonary biomarkers to understand and monitor the inflammation in the respiratory tract of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). In this Pulmonary Perspective we discuss the merits of the various approaches by reviewing the current literature on pulmonary biomarkers in COPD and underscore the need for more systematic studies in the future. Bronchial biopsies and bronchoalveolar lavage provide valuable information about inflammatory cells and mediators, but are invasive, so that repeated measurements have to be very limited in assessing any interventions. Induced sputum has provided considerable information about the inflammatory process, including mediators and proteinases in COPD, but selectively samples proximal airways and may not closely reflect distal inflammatory processes. Exhaled gases and breath condensate are noninvasive procedures, so repeated measurements are possible, but for some assays the variability is relatively high. There is relatively little information about how any of these biomarkers relate to other clinical outcomes, such as progression of the disease, severity of disease, clinical subtypes, or response to therapy. More information is also needed about the variability in these measurements. In the future, pulmonary biomarkers may be useful in predicting disease progression, indicating disease instability, and in predicting response to current therapies and novel therapies, many of which are now in development.

Abstract
Viruses are associated with the majority of exacerbations of asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Virus induction of neutrophil and lymphocyte chemokines in bronchial epithelium is important in exacerbation pathogenesis. Combined corticosteroid/beta2 agonists synergistically suppress airway smooth muscle chemokine production. Because bronchial epithelium expresses glucocorticoid and beta2 receptors, we investigated whether combination therapy can synergistically suppress rhinovirus-induced bronchial epithelial cell neutrophil (CXCL5, CXCL8) and lymphocyte (CCL5, CXCL10) chemokine production. We investigated modulation of rhinovirus- and IL-1beta-induced bronchial epithelial cell chemokine production by salmeterol and fluticasone propionate, used at therapeutic concentrations, alone and in combination. After 1 h pretreatment, combined treatment significantly inhibited rhinovirus 16, 1B, and IL-1beta-induced CCL5 and CXCL8 protein and mRNA production in BEAS-2B cells compared with fluticasone alone. When used 4 h after treatment, the combination significantly reduced virus-induced CCL5 but not CXCL8. Salmeterol alone had no effect; therefore, this inhibition was synergistic. Kinetic analysis demonstrated that combination therapy reduced by 5-fold the concentration of corticosteroid required to inhibit CXCL8 mRNA expression. In primary cells, salmeterol alone reduced rhinovirus-induced CCL5 and CXCL10 and increased CXCL5 production in a dose-dependent manner but had no effect on CXCL8. Fluticasone alone reduced CCL5, CXCL8, and CXCL10 but had no effect on CXCL5. Combination therapy augmented inhibition of CXCL8, CCL5, and CXCL10 but had no effect on CXCL5. Corticosteroids and beta2 agonists suppress rhinovirus-induced chemokines in bronchial epithelial cells through synergistic and additive mechanisms. This effect was greater for lymphocyte- than for neutrophil-related chemokines.

Abstract
Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a major and increasing global health problem that is now a leading cause of death. COPD is associated with a chronic inflammatory response, predominantly in small airways and lung parenchyma, which is characterized by increased numbers of macrophages, neutrophils, and T lymphocytes. The inflammatory mediators involved in COPD have not been clearly defined, in contrast to asthma, but it is now apparent that many lipid mediators, inflammatory peptides, reactive oxygen and nitrogen species, chemokines, cytokines, and growth factors are involved in orchestrating the complex inflammatory process that results in small airway fibrosis and alveolar destruction. Many proteases are also involved in the inflammatory process and are responsible for the destruction of elastin fibers in the lung parenchyma, which is the hallmark of emphysema. The identification of inflammatory mediators and understanding their interactions is important for the development of anti-inflammatory treatments for this important disease.
