“…Moreover, we did not have bronchoalveolar fluids to examine luminal inflammatory cells as performed in other studies. 35,36 An interaction between the apical pole of the airway epithelium and luminal microbial antigens may induce the release of cytokines that trigger GCH via local stimulation or recruitment of additional inflammatory cells. 38 However, the close vicinity detected in our LPS model between bronchiole goblet cells and interstitial macrophages allow us to hypothesize that-beside any direct cell-cell interaction-soluble factors released by those macrophages may contribute also to modulate via a basolateral pathway the phenotype of bronchiolar goblet cells.…”

“…We used PAS, MUC5AC, and the lectin Ulex Europaeus Agglutinin I (UEA-1) as mucin markers, which have been extensively used to study airway goblet cells in rat. 35,36 Immune markers were assessed in inflamed and non-inflamed areas from bronchioles. Goblet cells and proliferating Ki-67 þ epithelial cells were quantified by counting stained cells per 50 epithelial nuclei in three different fields of Â 400 magnification, excluding unspecific reactions and structures lacking a nucleus, whereas CD68 quantification was performed by percentage of stained area per Â 400 field due to the patchy pattern of this marker and difficulties identifying single CD68 þ cells.…”

Airway goblet cell hyperplasia (GCH)-detectable by mucin staining-and abnormal macrophage infiltrate are pathological features present in many chronic respiratory disorders. However, it is unknown if both factors are associated. Using in-vivo and in-vitro models, we investigated whether macrophages are related with GCH and changes in mucin immunophenotypes. Lung sections from Sprague-Dawley rats treated for 48 h with one intra-tracheal dose of PBS or LPS (n ¼ 4-6 per group) were immunophenotyped for rat-goblet cells, immune, and proliferation markers. Human monocytederived macrophages (MDM) were pre-treated with or without LPS, immunophenotyped, and their supernatant, as well as cytokines at levels equivalent to supernatant were used to challenge primary culture of normal human bronchus epithelial cells (HBEC) in air-liquid interface, followed by MUC5B and MUC5AC mucin immunostaining. An association between increased bronchiolar goblet cells and terminal-bronchiolar proliferative epithelial cells confirmed the presence of GCH in our LPS rat model, which was related with augmented bronchiolar CD68 macrophage infiltration. The in-vitro experiments have shown that MUC5AC phenotype was inhibited when HBEC were challenged with supernatant from MDM pre-treated with or without LPS. In contrast, TNF-a and interleukin-1b at levels equivalent to supernatant from LPS-treated MDM increased MUC5AC. MUC5B was induced by LPS, supernatant from LPS-treated MDM, a mix of cytokines including TNF-a and TNF-a alone at levels present in supernatant from LPS-treated MDM. We demonstrated that macrophages are related with bronchiolar GCH, and that they induced MUC5B and inhibited MUC5AC in HBEC, suggesting a role for them in the pathogenesis of airway MUC5B-related GCH. KEYWORDS: airways; cytokines; LPS; lung inflammation; TNF-alphaMucus is a gel that covers the airway epithelium and is constituted by different glycoproteins called mucins, which are secreted by goblet cells from submucosal glands and the airway epithelium. 1 Mucus dissolves noxious gases and entraps foreign particles and pathogens, facilitating their clearance by mucociliary transport as a mechanism of innate defense. 2 However, in chronic inflammatory respiratory diseases, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and cystic fibrosis (CF), there is a pathological goblet cell hyperplasia (GCH) and mucus hypersecretion that can generate airway occlusion, associated with morbidity and death. 1 The main gel-forming mucins found in human airways are MUC5B and MUC5AC. 1 In healthy individuals, low levels of MUC5B and MUC5AC can be detected in mucus; although MUC5B is mainly present in the submucosal glands and MUC5AC is predominantly distributed in the airway epithelium. 3 In baseline conditions of chronic inflammatory respiratory disorders, MUC5B and/or MUC5AC are increased in different compartments of the respiratory tract. [3][4][5][6] For example, MUC5B and MUC5AC are augmented in small airway lumen and epithelium from patients with advanced CF; 4 GC...

A Rat Model for Stable Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease Induced by Cigarette Smoke Inhalation and Repetitive Bacterial Infection

To develop a stable chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) model in rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with cigarette-smoke inhalation (CSI) for 12 weeks, repetitive bacterial infection (RBI) for 8 weeks, or the combination of the two (CCR) for 12 weeks and followed up for the additional 20 weeks. Tidal volume (V T ), peak expiratory flow (PEF) and 50% V T expiratory flow (EF 50 ), histological changes in the lungs, and levels of the cytokines tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-8, and IL-10 in serum and bronchial alveolar lavage fluid (BALF) were examined at intervals during the 32 week study period. The right ventricular hypertrophy index (RVHI) was also determined at the same times. V T , PEF, and EF 50 were decreased in rats with COPD compared to the control. The expression of TNF-α, IL-8 and IL-10 increased in both serum and BALF with a similar trend. Bronchiole and arteriole wall thickness and the degree of bronchiole stenosis and alveolar size increased in COPD rats. RVHI was reduced gradually following the treatment. All of these changes were more pronounced in the CCR-treatment group than in the other groups. Our results have shown that CSI or RBI alone can induce COPD in rats, but that the combination of CSI with RBI induces a stable COPD that has more similarity to complications seen in patients with COPD. This combination may therefore provide a more appropriate model for study of human COPD.Key words pulmonary disease; chronic obstructive; animal model; pulmonary function; histological change; right ventricular hypertrophy index Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has been defined as a preventable and treatable pathologic condition characterized by partially reversible airflow limitation, 1) and is a major cause of morbidity and mortality throughout the world.2) Its prevalence among the Chinese population aged 40 or older is 8.2%.3) Development of COPD is slow and progressive in humans, with occasional exacerbations caused by an inflammatory response to triggering substances such as noxious gases, 1) bacteria 4-6) or viruses. [7][8][9][10][11] Four abnormalities are present in chronic, stable COPD: emphysema, small airway remodeling, pulmonary hypertension, and chronic bronchitis.Tobacco smoking and bacterial infection are the most common and important risk factors for COPD, 1,12,13) and they have each been used to establish animal COPD models. [14][15][16] Animal models have also used other noxious gases [17][18][19] and Pneumocystis carinii infection 20) in COPD induction.

Long term induction protocols (weeks or months) 15,[17][18][19] have produced, in addition to the inflammatory infiltrate, emphysema and pulmonary remodeling characterized by fibrosis, and thickened bronchiole and arterial walls. Problems with animal models are that most of them are of short duration and the COPD produced does not correspond to the late...
