Cigarette smoke inhibits the growth of lung fibroblasts from patients with pulmonary emphysema

Abstract: Fibroblasts from emphysematous lungs had lower proliferative activity and were more susceptible to cigarette smoke than those from non-emphysematous lungs. Cigarette smoke may play a critical role in the development and deterioration of pulmonary emphysema by suppressing the growth of lung fibroblasts.

“…In addition to this, there is indication that lung repair, as evidenced by de novo synthesis and tissue accumulation of elastin and collagen, is inhibited by cigarette smoke [149]. Exposure to cigarette smoke extract also inhibits fibroblast proliferation [150], and fibroblasts isolated from patients with emphysema exhibit decreased proliferative capacity [151,152]. Exposure to cigarette smoke extract induces cell cycle arrest in fibroblasts, mediated through activation of p53 and p16, which inhibit the cell cycle, leading to cellular senescence [153], which may represent a response of fibroblasts to DNA damage by cigarette smoke extract [154].…”

“…Lung fibroblasts isolated from patients with emphysema show a decreased proliferative capacity, suggesting cellular senescence due to exposure to cigarette smoke (10,11,35). Senescent cells have a markedly reduced proliferative capacity, but still maintain their viability with an increase in senescence associated ␤-galactosidase (SA ␤-gal) activity (21).…”
