“…It could be assumed that IL‐8, which is increased in BAL fluid following exposure, is responsible for the neutrophil influx into the airways. The pro‐inflammatory cytokine TNF‐α is of importance for the release of IL‐8 as shown in human bronchial epithelial cells in vitro [39]. In the present study, however, inhibition of TNF‐α by SCG did not influence BAL fluid levels of IL‐8 which was unaffected by treatment with SCG.…”

“…It has been reported that a β 2 ‐agonist, sulbutamol, does not inhibit release of IL‐8 from BECs in response to 2 ng·mL ‐1 TNF‐α[6]. Inhibition of ECA release by procaterol and theophylline occurred at a concentration of 100 U·mL ‐1 TNF‐α and 50 pg·mL ‐1 IL‐1β in the present study.…”

“…Bronchial epithelial cells (BEC) release chemotactic activity for inflammatory cells, including eosinophils [4, 5]. Interleukin (IL)‐8 [6, 7], granulocyte colony‐stimulating factor [7], granulocyte‐macrophage colony‐stimulating factor (GM‐CSF) [6], transforming growth factor‐β (TGF‐β) [8], regulated on activation, normal T‐cell expressed and secreted (RANTES) [9], monocyte chemotactic protein (MCP)‐1 [10], MCP‐4 [11], eotaxin [12], and eicosanoids [4, 5] are thought to be involved in the release of chemotactic factors in response to a variety of stimuli. Thus, BECs actively participate in the airway pathophysiology of asthma, including the bronchial inflammation.…”

“…Bronchial cells produced cytokines such as GM‐CSF, IL‐6 in vivo and in vitro . TNF‐α or IL‐1β increased the basal production of these cytokines [19, 20]. The next experiment asked whether CD40 L–CD40 interactions affected IL‐6 and GM‐CSF secretions by bronchial cell lines.…”

“…We analysed whether CD40 activation could induce cytokine release by bronchial epithelial cell lines. IL‐6 and GM‐CSF are both secreted at a low level by human bronchial cells under basal conditions [19, 20], as was the case in the two cell lines tested. While TNF‐α clearly stimulated the secretion of the two cytokines, CD40 activation did not have such an effect.…”
