15-Lipoxygenase 1 in nasal polyps promotes CCL26/eotaxin 3 expression through extracellular signal-regulated kinase activation.

ABSTRACT: BACKGROUND:15-Lipoxygenase 1 (15LO1) is expressed in airway epithelial cells in patients with type 2-high asthma in association with eosinophilia. Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is also associated with type 2 inflammation and eosinophilia. CCL26/eotaxin 3 has been reported to be regulated by 15LO1 in lower airway epithelial cells. However, its relation to 15LO1 in patients with CRSwNP or mechanisms for its activation are unclear. OBJECTIVE:We sought to evaluate 15LO1 and CCL26 expression in nasal epithelial cells (NECs) from patients with CRSwNP and healthy control subjects (HCs) and determine whether 15LO1 regulates CCL26 in NECs through extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) activation. METHODS:15LO1, CCL26, and phosphorylated ERK were evaluated in NECs from patients with CRSwNP and HCs. 15LO1/CCL26 and CCL26/cytokeratin 5 were colocalized by means of immunofluorescence. IL-13-stimulated NECs were cultured at an air-liquid interface with or without 15-lipoxygenase 1 gene (ALOX15) Dicer-substrate short interfering RNAs (DsiRNA) transfection, a specific 15LO1 enzymatic inhibitor, and 2 ERK inhibitors. Expression of 15LO1 and CCL26 mRNA and protein was analyzed by using quantitative RT-PCR, Western blotting, and ELISA. RESULTS:15LO1 expression was increased in nasal polyp (NP) epithelial cells compared with middle turbinate epithelial cells from patients with CRSwNP and HCs. 15LO1 expression correlated with CCL26 expression and colocalized with CCL26 expression in basal cells of the middle turbinate and NPs from patients with CRSwNP. In primary NECs in vitro, IL-13 induced 15LO1 and CCL26 expression. 15LO1 knockdown and inhibition decreased IL-13-induced ERK phosphorylation and CCL26 expression. ERK inhibition (alone) similarly decreased IL-13-induced CCL26. Phosphorylated ERK expression was increased in NECs from CRSwNP subjects and positively correlated with both 15LO1 and CCL26 expression. CONCLUSIONS:15LO1 expression is increased in NP epithelial cells and contributes to CCL26 expression through ERK activation. 15LO1 could be considered a novel therapeutic target for CRSwNP.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP) is often characterized by tissue eosinophilia that is associated with poor prognosis. Recent findings that proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) directly modulate the expression of eotaxin-3, an eosinophil chemoattractant, in patients with eosinophilic diseases suggest therapeutic potential for PPIs in those with CRSwNP. OBJECTIVE:We assessed the effect of type 2 mediators, particularly IL-13 and eotaxin-3, on tissue eosinophilia and disease severity in patients with chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS). Further investigation focused on PPI suppression of eotaxin-3 expression in vivo and in vitro, with exploration of underlying mechanisms. METHODS:Type 2 mediator levels in nasal tissues and secretions were measured by using a multiplex immunoassay. Eotaxin-3 and other chemokines expressed in IL-13-stimulated human sinonasal epithelial cells (HNECs) and BEAS-2B cells with or without PPIs were assessed by using ELISA, Western blotting, real-time PCR, and intracellular pH imaging. RESULTS:Nasal tissues and secretions from patients with CRSwNP had increased IL-13, eotaxin-2, and eotaxin-3 levels, and these were positively correlated with tissue eosinophil cationic protein levels and radiographic scores in patients with CRS (P < .05). IL-13 stimulation of HNECs and BEAS-2B cells dominantly induced eotaxin-3 expression, which was significantly inhibited by PPIs (P < .05). Patients with CRS taking PPIs also showed lower in vivo eotaxin-3 levels compared with those without PPIs (P < .05). Using intracellular pH imaging and altering extracellular K+, we found that IL-13 enhanced H+,K+-exchange, which was blocked by PPIs and the mechanistically unrelated H,K-ATPase inhibitor, SCH-28080. Furthermore, knockdown of ATP12A (gene for the nongastric H,K-ATPase) significantly attenuated IL-13-induced eotaxin-3 expression in HNECs. PPIs also had effects on accelerating IL-13-induced eotaxin-3 mRNA decay. CONCLUSION:Our results demonstrated that PPIs reduce IL-13-induced eotaxin-3 expression by airway epithelial cells. Furthermore, mechanistic studies suggest that the nongastric H,K-ATPase is necessary for IL-13-mediated epithelial responses, and its inhibitors, including PPIs, might be of therapeutic value in patients with CRSwNP by reducing epithelial production of eotaxin-3.

Project description:BackgroundEosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is characterized by the inflammation of the esophagus and the infiltration of eosinophils into the esophagus, leading to symptoms such as dysphagia and stricture formation. Systemic immune indicators like eotaxin and fibroblast growth factor were evaluated for possible synergistic pathological effects. Moreover, blood cells, local tissue, and plasma from EoE and control subjects were studied to determine if the localized disease was associated with a systemic effect that correlated with presence of EoE disease.MethodReal-time polymerase chain reaction from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC), immunohistochemistry from local esophageal biopsies, fluid assays on plasma, and fluorescence-activated cell sorting on peripheral blood cells from subjects were used to study the systemic immune indicators in newly diagnosed EoE (n = 35), treated EoE (n = 9), Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) (n = 8), ulcerative colitis (n = 5), Crohn's disease (n = 5), and healthy controls (n = 8).ResultOf the transcripts tested for possible immune indicators, we found extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK), Bcl-2, bFGF (basic fibroblast growth factor), and eotaxin levels were highly upregulated in PBMC and associated with disease presence of EoE. Increased FGF detected by immunohistochemistry in esophageal tissues and in PBMC was correlated with low levels of pro-apoptotic factors (Fas, Caspase 8) in PBMC from EoE subjects. Plasma-derived bFGF was shown to be the most elevated and most specific in EoE subjects in comparison to healthy controls and disease control subjects.ConclusionWe describe for the first time a possible mechanism by which increased FGF is associated with inhibiting apoptosis in local esophageal tissues of EoE subjects as compared to controls. Eotaxin and FGF signaling pathways share activation through the ERK pathway; together, they could act to increase eosinophil activation and prolong the half-life of eosinophils in local tissues of the esophagus in EoE subjects.
