Angiotensin receptor blockade attenuates cigarette smoke-induced lung injury and rescues lung architecture in a murine model


ABSTRACT: TGFβ inhibition attenuates chronic cigarette smoke induced lung injury and rescues lung architecture. AKR/J mice were exposed to Cigarette Smoke (CS) for a period of two months. Some animals received a treatment of Losartan (.6gr/L) orally while exposed (CS Los). These two groups are to be compared to animals that remained in Room Air (RA) and Room Air plus Losartan(0.6g/L) (RA Los) for any changes.

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a prevalent smoking-related disease for which no disease-altering therapies currently exist. As dysregulated TGF-β signaling associates with lung pathology in patients with COPD and in animal models of lung injury induced by chronic exposure to cigarette smoke (CS), we postulated that inhibiting TGF-β signaling would protect against CS-induced lung injury. We first confirmed that TGF-β signaling was induced in the lungs of mice chronically exposed  ...[more]
