IL-13-programmed airway tuft cells produce PGE2, which promotes CFTR-dependent mucociliary function

Abstract: Chronic type 2 (T2) inflammatory diseases of the respiratory tract are characterized by mucus overproduction and disordered mucociliary function, which are largely attributed to the effects of IL-13 on common epithelial cell types (mucus secretory and ciliated cells). The role of rare cells in airway T2 inflammation is less clear, though tuft cells have been shown to be critical in the initiation of T2 immunity in the intestine. Using bulk and single cell RNA sequencing of airway epithelium and mouse modeling,… Show more

“…We discovered that polyp brushings had increased numbers of tuft cells newly expressing eicosanoid synthetic enzymes, and an associated PGE2-induced transcriptional signature across the polyp epithelium. By applying these novel transcriptional signatures to a larger cohort of banked bulk RNA from sinus epithelial brushings from 24 patients with CRSwNP, 7 patients with CRSsNP and 8 healthy control subjects, we determined that these scSeq-derived transcriptional signatures could be effectively applied to bulk RNA samples to confirm and extend our findings in a distinct patient cohort (3). Here we examine additional cell type and stimulation-state transcriptional signatures in those specimens in order to more broadly examine epithelial remodeling in CRS.…”

Its tissue effects include the ability to elicit potent interstitial edema (32; 33) and activate epithelial fluid secretion via CFTR (3), which together may act to impair normal sinus drainage. PGE2 may also stimulate goblet cell development and mucin secretion, further enhancing the effects of IL-13 on goblet cell differentiation (34)(35)(36).…”
