Influence of the Surfactant Tyloxapol on Mucociliary Clearance in Human Respiratory Cystic Fibrosis Cells

Abstract: Dehydration of the apical surface of cystic fibrosis (CF) airway epithelia leads to a greatly impaired mucociliary clearance function in CF patients. In an in vitro cell model of human airway epithelia taken from CF patients and cultivated for 60 days, mucociliary clearance was zero. Tyloxapol, a synthetic surfactant, is able to restore the mucociliary clearance of the CF epithelia. The velocity of mucociliary clearance, using polystyrene microbeads as markers, increased within the first minute of tyloxapol tr… Show more

“…Both models are well characterised in terms of structure, barrier properties, expression of tissue -relevant markers and in vivo-like behaviour (Balogh Sivars et al, 2018;Baxter et al, 2015;Huang et al, 2017;Iskandar et al, 2013;Zavala et al, 2016). In addition to tissue inserts derived from healthy donors, MucilAir™ and EpiAir-way™ tissues are also available from donors with airway diseases such as cystic fibrosis (Beubler et al, 2016), asthma (Chortarea et al, 2017) and COPD. This may be beneficial in the development of new treatments for these conditions, or for risk assessments relevant to these particularly vulnerable groups.…”

“…According to the reported effect on the airways, elevated tracheal IL-6 levels, a proinflammatory cytokine and an important mediator of the acute phase response, have been measured in patients with tracheostomy compared to controls [ 18 ]. The influence of a substitution of surfactant on the limited mucociliary clearance has already been described for different types of applications in different situations [ 19 , 20 ]. In addition to a restoration of mucociliary clearance, a decrease of the IL-6 levels in tracheal fluid following surfactant therapy was observed, indicating its ability to modulate levels of inflammatory cytokines in the airways [ 21 ].…”

“…These parameters are all of relevance to both infectious disease and chronic disease progression. 33,[56][57][58][59][60][61] Specifically considering SARS-CoV-2 studies, a recent paper by Pizzorno and coworkers 62 applied two commercially available ALI nasal and bronchial epithelial models to assess the host response to the virus, as well as to investigate potential therapeutic options. The in vitro models employed in the study successfully addressed several disease hallmarks, including: virus replication kinetics; epithelial barrier function; ultrastructural tissue alterations; differential inflammatory response of epithelial cells from nasal and bronchial compartments; and the antiviral activity of remdesivir/diltiazem in combination.…”
