Since the leaking plasma lacks erythrocytes, these clots are opaque. Insightful research by Avery and Mead soon led to the suggestion that the neonatal respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) did not arise because of the presence of hyaline membranes, but rather was related to the lack of sufficient pulmonary surfactant, mainly as a result of immaturity. Unfortunately, initial attempts at treating RDS with aerosolized dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine, the major single molecular component, proved unsuccessful. Almost 20 years later, it was demonstrated by Enhorning and Robertson that treating prematurely delivered rabbit pups with natural surfactant prevents respiratory failure. Initially, it appeared unlikely that animal surfactants could be used for therapy with human infants.

We previously showed that its expression and activity are higher in lung macrophages of smokers and patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), suggesting involvement in smoke-induced lung damage. In this study, we explored the function of TRAP and regulation of its different mRNA transcripts (<i>Acp5 201-206</i>) in lung tissue exposed to cigarette smoke to elucidate its function in alveolar macrophages. In mice exposed to cigarette smoke or air for 4-6 wk, higher <i>Acp5</i> mRNA expression in lung tissue after smoking was mainly driven by transcript <i>Acp5-202</i>, which originates from macrophages. The expression of <i>Acp5-202</i> correlated with transcription factors previously found to drive proliferation of macrophages. Treating fetal liver progenitor-derived alveolar-like macrophages [Max Planck Institute (MPI; macrophages derived from fetal liver progenitors) macrophages] with cigarette smoke extract resulted in more proliferation compared with nontreated cells. In contrast, <i>Acp5</i>-deficient MPI macrophages and MPI macrophages treated with a TRAP inhibitor proliferated significantly less than control macrophages. Mechanistically, this lack of proliferation after TRAP inhibition was associated with higher presence of phosphorylated Beta-catenin (β-catenin; a signaling protein) compared with nontreated controls. Phosphorylation of β-catenin is known to mark it for ubiquitination and degradation by the proteasome, preventing its activity in promoting cell proliferation. In conclusion, our findings provide strong evidence for TRAP stimulating alveolar macrophage proliferation by dephosphorylating β-catenin.

This nonequivalence of PPV and NPV must be investigated under diseased states to augment our understanding of disease mechanics. To assess the comparability of diseased pulmonary mechanics in PPV and NPV, we pose a novel study to parse out the currently entangled contributions of ventilation mode and diseased state by analyzing murine PV curves from porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) and hog dust extract (HDE) induced COPD models under positive and negative pressures. We find that, for PPE-exposed, under NPV, volume, compliance (<i>C, C<sub>start</sub></i>, and <i>C<sub>def</sub></i>), and hysteresis are increased in diseased states and that under PPV, only compliance (<i>C</i> and <i>C<sub>start</sub></i>) is increased.

Primary smoking reduces CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) channel function, the causative defect in CF. We reported that SHSe worsens respiratory and nutritional outcomes in CF by disrupting immune responses and metabolic signaling. Recently, electronic cigarette (e-cigs) usage by caregivers and peers has increased rapidly, causing new secondhand e-cig vape exposures. Primary vaping is associated with immunologic deficits in healthy people, but it is unknown whether e-cigs similarly impacts CF immune function or how it differs from SHSe. Human CF and non-CF blood monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMs) and bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) were exposed to flavored and unflavored e-cigs. The effect of e-cigs on CFTR expression and function, bacterial killing, cytokine signaling, lipid mediators, and metabolism was measured during treatment with CFTR modulators. E-cigs decreased CFTR expression and function in CF and non-CF MDMs and negated CFTR functional restoration by elexacaftor/tezacaftor/ivacaftor (ETI). E-cigs also negated the restoration of anti-inflammatory PGD<sub>2</sub> expression in CF MDMs treated with ETI compared with controls. Flavored but not unflavored e-cigs increased proinflammatory cytokine expression in CF MDMs and e-cigs promoted glycolytic metabolism. E-cigs did not impact bacterial killing. Overall, HBECs were less impacted by e-cigs compared with MDMs. E-cigs reduced macrophage CFTR expression and hindered functional CFTR restoration by CFTR modulators, promoting a glycolytic, proinflammatory state. E-cigs are an emerging public health threat that may limit the efficacy of CFTR modulators in people with CF.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> New research reveals that e-cigarettes pose a serious health risk for individuals with cystic fibrosis (CF). Exposure to electronic cigarette (e-cig) vapors decreases CF transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) function and undermines the effectiveness of CFTR modulators, potentially worsening inflammation and metabolic responses. This highlights an urgent need for awareness around e-cig use, especially among caregivers and peers of those with CF. E-cigarettes may further complicate the management of this chronic lung disease.</p>","PeriodicalId":7593,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.

In this study, we examined the effect of type 2 diabetes on hypoxia-induced PH and investigated its molecular mechanisms using hypoxia-induced diabetic male mice. Chronic hypoxia led to a more severe PH in type 2 diabetic mice than in control mice. Next, we compared gene expression patterns in isolated pulmonary endothelial cells (MPECs) from control mice in normoxia (CN), diabetic mice in normoxia (DN), control mice exposed to hypoxia (CH), and diabetic mice exposed to hypoxia (DH). The results showed that expression levels of 27 mRNAs, out of 92 mRNAs, were significantly different among the four groups. Two glycolysis-related proteins, GAPDH and HK2, were increased in MPECs of DH mice compared with those in DN or CH mice. In addition, the levels of pyruvate and lactate (glycolysis end products) were significantly increased in MPECs of DH mice, but not in CH mice, compared with MPECs of CN mice. Augmentation of glycolysis by terazosin exacerbated hypoxia-induced PH in CH mice but not in DH mice. On the contrary, inhibiting GAPDH (a key enzyme of the glycolytic pathway) by koningic acid ameliorated hypoxia-induced PH in DH mice but had no effect in CH mice. These data suggest that enhanced glycolysis in diabetic mice is involved in severe hypoxia-induced PH, and glycolysis inhibition is a potential target to reduce the severe progression of PH in patients with diabetes.<b>NEW & NOTEWORTHY</b> Increasing evidence shows that diabetes exacerbates the progression of pulmonary hypertension; however, its molecular mechanisms are understudied. In this study, we revealed that augmented glycolysis in diabetic pulmonary endothelial cells is involved in the development of severe PH in diabetes. Inhibition of glycolysis could be a therapeutic strategy for treating pulmonary hypertension in patients with diabetes.</p>","PeriodicalId":7593,"journal":{"name":"American journal of physiology.
