Distinct roles for MDA5 and TLR3 in the acute response to inhaled double-stranded RNA

Abstract: The airway epithelial barrier is critical for preventing pathogen invasion and translocation of inhaled particles into the lung. Epithelial cells also serve an important sentinel role after infection and release various pro-inflammatory mediators that recruit and activate immune cells. Airway epithelial barrier disruption has been implicated in a growing number of respiratory diseases including viral infections. It is thought that when a pathogen breaks the barrier and gains access to the host tissue, pro-infl… Show more

“…Figure 1A shows that CRT significantly and dose-dependently reduced the amount of total protein and albumin translocation into the airspace after polyI:C challenge, which are markers of inside/out leak. Similarly, Figure 1B shows that CRT treatment significantly prevented the rapid loss of 4kDa FITC-dextran out of the airspaces, which is a direct reflection of epithelial barrier function and a marker of outside/in leak ( 15 ). CRT did not inhibit the basal levels of BAL albumin detected in PBS challenged control mice (104 ± 52 vs. 131 ± 87 pg/ml, n=4, PBS vs. PBS plus CRT, p>0.05).…”

“…We first validated that polyI:C dose-dependently increased intracellular PKD activity as determined by Western blot analysis of phosphorylated PKD substrates ( 17 ), and that this was blocked by CRT ( Supplemental Figure 1 ). We then asked if CRT treatment could limit airway barrier disruption caused by dsRNA in vivo using a polyI:C inhalation challenge protocol ( 15 ). Figure 1A shows that CRT significantly and dose-dependently reduced the amount of total protein and albumin translocation into the airspace after polyI:C challenge, which are markers of inside/out leak.…”
