Aerosolized Vitamin D Attenuates Ozone-Induced Inflammation and Transcriptional Responses Via Membrane Antioxidant Effects in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells.
Ozone exposure increases the risk of infection, worsens lung diseases, and causes systemic health issues. As ambient ozone levels continue to rise globally, effective interventions are needed to reduce these harmful effects. Vitamin D, known for its anti-inflammatory properties, has been inversely linked to various lung conditions, including ozone-induced airway inflammation and reduced lung function. However, oral vitamin D supplementation has shown inconsistent results, possibly due to poor delivery to lung tissues. This study explores a novel approach using vitamin D aerosols to counter ozone-induced damage in primary human bronchial epithelial cells. Cells were pre-treated with vitamin D aerosols apically or as bulk addition basolaterally before ozone exposure at the air-liquid interface. Both treatment routes significantly reduced the ozone-induced secretion of the inflammatory cytokine IL-8. Furthermore, vitamin D suppressed the ozone-induced expression of inflammation- and oxidative stress-related genes, including IL-8, FFAR2, COX-2, and NFKB2. Gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) indicated that vitamin D reversed ozone-driven pathways related to inflammation, oxidative stress, and immune dysfunction. Additionally, vitamin D pre-treatment reduced lipid peroxidation, glutathione oxidation, and formation of ozone-derived oxysterols, suggesting a membrane antioxidant effect. These findings support vitamin D's potential as a protective agent against inhaled oxidants and highlight inhaled delivery as a promising therapeutic strategy for treating lung diseases.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology publishes original research covering the broad scope of molecular, cellular, and integrative aspects of normal and abnormal function of cells and components of the respiratory system. Areas of interest include conducting airways, pulmonary circulation, lung endothelial and epithelial cells, the pleura, neuroendocrine and immunologic cells in the lung, neural cells involved in control of breathing, and cells of the diaphragm and thoracic muscles. The processes to be covered in the Journal include gas-exchange, metabolic control at the cellular level, intracellular signaling, gene expression, genomics, macromolecules and their turnover, cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, cell motility, secretory mechanisms, membrane function, surfactant, matrix components, mucus and lining materials, lung defenses, macrophage function, transport of salt, water and protein, development and differentiation of the respiratory system, and response to the environment.
