Recent work demonstrated the potential of primary- and pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived basal cells to efficiently engraft into the mouse trachea after injury. However, there are many hurdles to overcome in translating these approaches to humans including developing safe and efficient methods for delivery in larger animal models. We propose a model which targets preconditioning and cell-delivery to intrapulmonary airways utilizing a micro-bronchoscope for delivery. The detergent polidocanol was adapted for distal lung pre-conditioning, inducing intrapulmonary airway epithelial denudation by 5 and 24-hours post-delivery. While initial re-epithelialization of airways occurred later than tracheas, complete repair was observed within 7-days. Both PSC-derived and primary basal cells delivered via micro-bronchoscope post-polidocanol injury engrafted in tracheas and intrapulmonary airways, respectively. Transplanted cells differentiated into ciliated and secretory lineages while maintaining a population of basal cells. These findings demonstrate the utility of bronchoscopically targeted pre-conditioning and cell delivery to the conducting intra-pulmonary airways. Thus providing an important framework for pre-clinical translation of approaches for engineered airway epithelial regeneration.

The mechanisms of senescence in the bronchial epithelium, however, remain largely unknown. This study aimed to elucidate whether cellular senescence in COPD epithelial cells contributes to the pathogenesis of the disease and investigated the potential molecular mechanisms involved. Single cell RNA sequencing was performed on well differentiated primary bronchial epithelial cells from COPD and healthy subjects. We evaluated the abundance and distribution of senescence markers in key epithelial differentiated subtypes and senescence-associated secretory phenotype involved in airway epithelial dysfunction. The effects of interferon pathway inhibitors on cellular senescence were also investigated. There was increased expression of cellular senescence genes in the COPD cohort, which was predominantly in basal and club cells. Enhanced expression of cellular senescence markers, p16 and p21, was observed in COPD cultures, which was histologically confirmed in the lung tissue of COPD patients. There was also a notable increase in IFN-β and IFN-γ. Senescence associated secretory phenotype productions were increased in COPD and was attenuated by JAK-STAT or cGAS-STING pathway inhibitors (baricitinib or C-176). These inhibitors also effectively suppressed expression of senescence markers. COPD bronchial epithelium displays a senescence driven phenotype which is mediated by type I/II interferons. Inhibition of JAK-STAT or STING-cGAS interferon pathways may represent targets to alleviate cellular senescence and chronic inflammation in COPD.","PeriodicalId":7655,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144336241","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the existing bronchodilators are often unable to control symptoms of severe asthmatic patients, leaving a pressing need to search for alternatives. Recent studies indicate that the transmembrane mechanosensitive channel, Piezo1 may provide a novel target for bronchodilation as it mediates ASMCs relaxation via calcium signaling and activation of large-conductance calcium-activated potassium channels (BKCa), and Piezo1 specific agonist Yoda1 has been shown to reduce cell stiffness and traction force in cultured ASMCs after 24 h incubation. Thus in this study, we further explored the potential of Yoda1 for inducing rapid ASMCs relaxation and bronchodilation. We treated either cultured ASMCs or allergen-induced mouse models of asthma with Yoda1 at various doses, and then assessed the resulting variations in cell stiffness, traction force, and molecular signaling of cultured ASMCs, as well as in airway resistance of the mouse models. We found that exposure to Yoda1 rapidly decreased cell stiffness, traction force in association with induced calcium signaling and BKCa activation in cultured ASMCs, and reduced airway resistance in methacholine-challenged mice in a dose-dependent manner. These results indicate that chemical activation of Piezo1 with specific agonist Yoda1 was indeed capable of inducing bronchodilation by relaxing ASMCs, and thus provide insights into development of Piezo1 agonist-based novel bronchodilators for treating constrictive airway disorders such as asthma.","PeriodicalId":7655,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-13","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144289378","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Varying amounts of nitrogen oxides (NOx) are produced as by-products during O3 generation from oxygen depending on the method of production including the source and oxygen purity. A review of the current literature confirms a lack of consistent monitoring and reporting of potential nitrogen species produced with different methods of experimental O3 generation. The lack of consistent monitoring and reporting is potentially a factor that can explain divergence of reported experimental O3 exposure outcomes from different research groups. In the present report, we compare the effects of O3 source generation from either filtered air (FA-ozone) or a pure oxygen (Oxy-ozone) source on NOx generation and measures of O3-induced lung injury. We also consider if this also impacts mixed exposures with O3 and ultrafine carbon black (CB) based on if the O3 was generated from a filtered air (FA-ozone-CB) versus a pure oxygen (Oxy-ozone-CB) source. Comparing FA-ozone vs. Oxy-ozone we observed increased lung inflammation and injury in the FA-ozone group. In the FA-ozone-CB group, compared to the Oxy-ozone-CB group, the FA-ozone-CB inhalation exposure resulted in the formation of a greater amount of NOx and induced protein nitrotyrosine in the lungs. Moreover, the FA-ozone-CB group had evidence of eosinophil recruitment not observed in the Oxy-ozone-CB group. Overall, this suggests that the source of oxygen for O3 generation impacts experimental outcomes. Furthermore, measurement and reporting of nitrogen species in O3 exposure should be considered.","PeriodicalId":7655,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144245915","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, low biomass makes airway samples particularly susceptible to issues related to contaminant DNA. For this study, we collected nasal swabs and NLF from adult volunteers. DNA was extracted from a mock microbial community and NLF using a column-based kit (ZymoBIOMICS), a precipitation-based kit (Qiagen), or a previously published precipitation-based method. Quality and quantity of DNA was assessed and short-read 16S rRNA sequencing performed to assess feasibility and extraction bias. An optimised methodology was used to extract DNA from NLF and nasal swabs, and long-read 16S rRNA sequencing performed to compare microbial profiles between NLF and nasal swabs. All extraction methods recovered DNA from the mock community, but only precipitation-based methods yielded sufficient DNA from NLF. Extraction methodologies significantly affected microbial profiles, with mechanical lysis needed to minimize bias. Profiles obtained from NLF and swabs were comparable with long-read sequencing. Our findings demonstrate the feasibility of profiling the nasal microbiome using NLF and validated two extraction methodologies as suitable for full-length 16S rRNA sequencing of low-biomass respiratory samples. Our data demonstrate the importance of unbiased DNA extraction methodologies in low-biomass respiratory samples. Additionally, we demonstrated NLF may be an appropriate surrogate for swabs to assess the nasal microbiome.","PeriodicalId":7655,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144224036","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

IL-33 and ILCs have an important role in T2-high asthma but their influence on airway dysfunction induced by irritants is unclear. We examined the effects of Cl2 inhalation on IL-33 release, pulmonary ILCs, airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR). Cl2 exposure resulted in IL-33 release and increased ILC2s in the airways of BALB/c mice. Inhibition of the IL-33 receptor did not alter AHR but depletion of ILCs augmented AHR. Recombinant IL-33 given for 3 successive days to wild type and recombinant activating gene deficient (Rag1-/-) mice, deficient in mature T and B cells, further increased ILC2s and inhibited Cl2 induced neutrophilia and AHR, whereas Rag-/- IL2rγ-/- mice, lacking ILCs, did not show these effects. IL-33 increased IL-13 expression by ILC2s, and IL-13 neutralization exacerbated AHR, whereas IL-13 administration reduced AHR in Cl2-exposed Rag1-/- mice. Il-33 biased alveolar macrophages towards the M2 phenotype, partly mediated by IL-13. Depletion with clodronate liposomes abrogated the IL-33 protective effect on AHR. The data suggest that the expansion of ILC2s by IL-33 activates a protective pathway involving IL-13 and macrophages against airway dysfunction and inflammation following inhalation of Cl2.","PeriodicalId":7655,"journal":{"name":"American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144214677","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
