Inflammatory and Repair Pathways Induced in Human Bronchoalveolar Lavage Cells with Ozone Inhalation

Abstract: BackgroundInhalation of ambient levels of ozone causes airway inflammation and epithelial injury.MethodsTo examine the responses of airway cells to ozone-induced oxidative injury, 19 subjects (7 with asthma) were exposed to clean air (0ppb), medium (100ppb), and high (200ppb) ambient levels of ozone for 4h on three separate occasions in a climate-controlled chamber followed by bronchoscopy with bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) 24h later. BAL cell mRNA expression was examined using Affymetrix GeneChip Microarray. T… Show more

“…A useful model to explore this effect is the use of O 3 to stimulate the bronchial epithelium prior to examination of the cellular functions of adjacent fibroblasts not in direct contact of O 3 ( 29 ). O 3 is a common major component of air pollution and has been revealed in various studies to cause airway epithelial shedding, airway inflammation and airway hyperresponsiveness ( 16 , 30 ). Therefore, the aim of the present study was to co-culture HLFs with airway epithelial cells pre-stimulated with O 3 and subsequently measure the functional changes, including collagen synthesis, of the fibroblasts.…”

“…Notably, there is little evidence to support whether O 3 exposure may result in airway remodeling. The limited reports regarding this may partly be due to the fact that O 3 directly targets bronchial epithelial cells (BECs) but not the fibroblasts that reside beneath these cells, which serve a key role in airway remodeling ( 16 ).…”

“…In the case of examining toxicant-induced responses, genomic profiling studies are useful for identifying markers of exposure and early effect and comprehensively describing a toxicant's effects at the transcriptional level. Previous studies that investigated transcriptional responses in whole lung tissue and in inflammatory cells recruited to the lungs following O3 exposure have broadened our appreciation of O3-response pathways and mechanisms of toxicity, including the involvement of heat-shock proteins (Hspa1), extracellular matrix remodeling enzymes (Mmp2, Mmp9), and various proinflammatory signaling pathways (Tnfr family members, Rela), amongst others (GOHIL et al 2003;NADADUR et al 2005;KOOTER et al 2007;BACKUS et al 2010;BAUER et al 2011;GABEHART et al 2014;LEROY et al 2015;VERHEIN 2015;WARD 2015;CIENCEWICKI et al 2016).…”

“…Известно, что неорганическая пыль [26] и токсичные газы [27] инициируют оксидативный стресс. В настоящем исследовании также определена высокая активность процессов перекисного окисления, ассоциация тяжести оксидативного стресса со стажем работы и дозой промышленного аэрозоля.…”
