Co-inhibition of CD73 and ADORA2B Improves Long-Term Cigarette Smoke Induced Lung Injury.

ABSTRACT: Adenosine (ADO) involvement in lung injury depends on the activation of its receptors. The ADO A_2A receptor (ADORA2A) and A_2B receptor (ADORA2B) are best described to have both tissue-protective and tissue-destructive processes. However, no approach has been effective in delineating the mechanism(s) involved with ADO shifting from its tissue-protective to tissue-destructive properties in chronic airway injury. Using cigarette smoke (CS) as our model of injury, we chronically exposed Nuli-1 cells to 5% CS extract (CSE) for 3 years establishing a long-term CSE exposure model (LTC). We found significant morphological changes, decreased proliferation, and migration resulting in impaired airway wound closure in LTC. Further investigations showed that long-term CSE exposure upregulates CD73 and ADORA2B expression, increases ADO production, inhibits PKC alpha activity and p-ERK signaling pathway. Knocking down ADORA2B and/or CD73 in LTC activates PKC alpha and increases p-ERK signaling. Knocking down both showed better improvement in wound repair than either alone. In vivo experiments also showed that double knockout CD73 and ADORA2B remarkably improved CS-induced lung injury by activating PKC alpha, reducing the inflammatory cell number in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and the production of inflammatory mediator IL-6, inhibiting the fibrosis-like lesions and decreasing collagen deposition surrounding bronchioles. Collectively, long-term CSE exposure upregulates CD73 expression and increases ADO production, which promotes low affinity ADORA2B activation and subsequent diminution of PKC alpha activity and ERK signaling pathway, and inhibition of airway wound repair. Moreover, the data suggesting ADORA2B and CD73 as potential therapeutic targets may be more efficacious in improving chronic CS lung diseases and impaired wound repair.

Project description:Chronic exposure to cigarette smoke markedly increases the risk for lung cancer. Regulation of gene expression at the post-transcriptional level by miRNAs influences a variety of cancer-related interactomes. Yet, relatively little is known on the effects of long-term cigarette smoke exposure on miRNA expression and gene regulation. NCI-H292 (H292) is a cell line sensitive to cigarette smoke with mucoepidermoid characteristics in culture. We report, in this study, original observations on long-term (12 months) cigarette smoke effects in the H292 cell line, using microarray-based miRNA expression profiling, and stable isotopic labeling with amino acids in cell culture-based quantitative proteomic analysis. We identified 112 upregulated and 147 downregulated miRNAs (by twofold) in cigarette smoke-treated H292 cells. The liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry analysis identified 3,959 proteins, of which, 303 proteins were overexpressed and 112 proteins downregulated (by twofold). We observed 39 miRNA target pairs (proven targets) that were differentially expressed in response to chronic cigarette smoke exposure. Gene ontology analysis of the target proteins revealed enrichment of proteins in biological processes driving metabolism, cell communication, and nucleic acid metabolism. Pathway analysis revealed the enrichment of phagosome maturation, antigen presentation pathway, nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2-mediated oxidative stress response, and cholesterol biosynthesis pathways in cigarette smoke-exposed cells. In conclusion, this report makes an important contribution to knowledge on molecular changes in a lung cell line in response to long term cigarette smoke exposure. The findings might inform future strategies for drug target, biomarker and diagnostics innovation in lung cancer, and clinical oncology. These observations also call for further research on the extent to which continuing or stopping cigarette smoking in patients diagnosed with lung cancer translates into molecular and clinical outcomes.
