Intrapulmonary distal airway stem cell transplantation repairs lung injury in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

ABSTRACT:

Objectives

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by irreversible lung tissue damage including chronic bronchitis and emphysema, which could further develop into respiratory failure. Many studies have revealed a potential regenerative function of the distal airway stem/progenitor cells (DASCs) after lung injury.

Materials and methods

Mouse and human DASCs were expanded, analysed, and engrafted into injured mouse lungs. Single-cell analyses were performed to reveal the differentiation path of the engrafted cells. Finally, human DASCs were transplanted into COPD mice induced by porcine pancreatic elastase (PPE) and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) administration.

Results

We showed that isolated mouse and human DASCs could be indefinitely expanded and were able to further differentiate into mature alveolar structures in vitro. Single-cell analysis indicated that the engrafted cells expressed typical cellular markers of type I alveolar cells as well as the specific secreted proteins. Interestingly, transplantation of human DASCs derived from COPD patients into the lungs of NOD-SCID mice with COPD injury repaired the tissue damage and improved the pulmonary function.

Conclusions

The findings demonstrated that functional lung structure could be reconstituted by intrapulmonary transplantation of DASCs, suggesting a potential therapeutic role of DASCs transplantation in treatment for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Right single lung transplantation or double lung transplantation compared with left single lung transplantation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Project description:BackgroundAlthough single and double lung transplantation outcomes for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) have been investigated, right and left single lung transplants have never been rigorously compared to evaluate disease-specific differences. Single lung transplants for COPD often have hyperinflation of the contralateral native lung, which may be more pronounced in left lung transplants.MethodsUsing the United Network for Organ Sharing registry, we conducted a retrospective cohort study of 5,585 adults who underwent lung transplantation for COPD from May 4, 2005 to June 30, 2017. Subjects were followed until March 2019. Post-transplant survival was compared using Cox proportional hazards and Royston and Parmar's flexible parametric survival models. We adjusted for donor and recipient factors with known or plausible associations with survival.ResultsLung transplant recipients who received a left single lung transplant for COPD had an increased risk of post-transplant death when compared with those who received a right single lung transplant for COPD (hazard ratio [HR]: 1.24, 95% CI: 1.08-1.48, p = 0.002). Survival did not differ significantly between double lung transplant and right single lung transplant recipients (HR: 0.88, 95% CI: 0.77-1.02, p = 0.086). Adjusted 5-year survival was 57.8% (95% CI: 55.7-60.1) for double lung recipients, 56.7% (95% CI: 55.4-58.0) for right single lung recipients, and 50.9% (95% CI: 47.2-55.0) for left single lung recipients.ConclusionsIn COPD, right single lung transplantation was associated with improved post-transplant survival compared with left single lung transplantation, and no significant difference in post-transplant survival compared with double lung transplantation was found. In light of the ongoing donor lung shortage, preferential allocation of right single lungs to patients with COPD should be considered.

Autologous transplantation of P63+ lung progenitor cells for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease therapy

Project description:Adult lung resident stem/progenitor cells, including P63+ progenitor cells, have demonstrated the capacity for regeneration of lung epithelium in precinical models. Here we report a clinical trial of intra-pulmonary P63+ progenitor cell transplantation which included 28 participants with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) (stage II~IV). For control group, standard of care (SOC) for COPD treatment was given. For intervention group, in addition to SOC, autologous P63+ progenitor cells were isolated from the airway basal layer via bronchoscopic brushing, cultured for 3~5 weeks, and then transplanted into the lungs via bronchoscopy with 0.7-5.2x10^6 cells per kilogram bodyweight. Eventually 20 patients were evaluated (intervention group n=17; control group n=3). No grade 3~5 adverse events (AE) or serious adverse events occurred in any group. Bronchoscopy-associated AEs were recorded only in intervention groups, while the other AEs were recorded in both groups without showing significant difference. Participants in intervention group displayed significant improvement in diffusing capacity of the lung for carbon monoxide (DLCO) (change from baseline, 24 weeks: +18.2%), showing significant difference comparing to control group (change from baseline, 24 weeks: -17.4%)(p-value=0.008). Furthermore, more participants in intervention group showed > 30 m increase in walking distance within 6 minutes, demonstrating significant difference comparing to control group (p-value=0.036). Transcriptomic analysis of cells isolated from responding and non-responding individuals in the intervention group showed that higher expression of P63 and Nkx homeobox-1 was associated with better efficacy. In conclusion, transplantation of cultured P63+ lung progenitor cells was safe and represented a potential treatment strategy for COPD.

Lung transplantation in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: patient selection and special considerations.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity. Lung transplantation is one of the few treatments available for end-stage COPD with the potential to improve survival and quality of life. The selection of candidates and timing of listing present challenges, as COPD tends to progress fairly slowly, and survival after lung transplantation remains limited. Though the natural course of COPD is difficult to predict, the use of assessments of functional status and multivariable indices such as the BODE index can help identify which patients with COPD are at increased risk for mortality, and hence which are more likely to benefit from lung transplantation. Patients with COPD can undergo either single or bilateral lung transplantation. Although many studies suggest better long-term survival with bilateral lung transplant, especially in younger patients, this continues to be debated, and definitive recommendations about this cannot be made. Patients may be more susceptible to particular complications of transplant for COPD, including native lung hyperinflation, and development of lung cancer.

Distal-to-Proximal Re-patterning of Small Airway Epithelium in Smoking-associated Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Project description:The proximal-distal patterning program determines unique structural and functional properties of proximal and distal airways in the adult lung. Based on the knowledge that remod-eling of distal airways is the major pathologic feature of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and that small airway epithelium (SAE), which covers distal airways, is the primary site of the initial smoking-induced changes relevant to COPD pathogenesis, we hypothesized that in COPD smokers, the SAE transcriptome loses its region-specific biologic identity and takes on the transcriptional pattern of the proximal airways. By analyzing human airway epithelium col-lected by bronchoscopic brushings from proximal and distal airways of healthy smokers, proxi-mal and distal airway epithelial transcriptome signatures were identified. Dramatic smoking-dependent suppression of distal signature paralleled by acquisition of the proximal airway epithe-lial phenotype was found in the SAE of COPD smokers. Distal-proximal re-patterning observed in the SAE of smokers in vivo was reproduced in vitro by stimulating SAE basal cells (BC), the stem/progenitor cells of the SAE, with EGF, a growth factor up-regulated in airway epithelium by smoking. Together, this study identifies distal-proximal SAE re-patterning as a characteristic feature of small airway disordering in COPD smokers potentially driven by EGF/EGFR-mediated reprogramming of SAE BC stem/progenitor cells.

Double lung transplantation is better than single lung transplantation for end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease: a meta-analysis.

Project description:BackgroundLung transplantation is one of the most common treatment options for patients with end-stage chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. However, the choice between single and double lung transplantation for these patients remains a matter of debate. Therefore, we performed a systematic search of medical databases for studies on single lung transplantation, double lung transplantation, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.MethodsThe rate ratio and hazard ratio of survival were analyzed. The meta-analysis included 15 case-control and retrospective registry studies.ResultsThe rate ratios of the 3-year survival (0.937 and P = 0.041) and 5-year survival (0.775 and P = 0.000) were lower for single lung transplantation than for double lung transplantation. However, the hazard ratio did not differ significantly between the two.ConclusionsDouble lung transplantation was found to provide better benefits than single lung transplantation in terms of the long-term survival in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

The societal impact of single versus bilateral lung transplantation for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Project description:RationaleBilateral lung transplantation (BLT) improves survival compared with single lung transplantation (SLT) for some individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, it is unclear which strategy optimally uses this scarce societal resource.ObjectivesTo compare the effect of SLT versus BLT strategies for COPD on waitlist outcomes among the broader population of patients listed for lung transplantation.MethodsWe developed a Markov model to simulate the transplant waitlist using transplant registry data to define waitlist size, donor frequency, the risk of death awaiting transplant, and disease- and procedure-specific post-transplant survival. We then applied this model to 1,000 simulated patients and compared the number of patients under each strategy who received a transplant, the number who died before transplantation, and total post-transplant survival.Measurements and main resultsUnder baseline assumptions, the SLT strategy resulted in more patients transplanted (809 vs. 758) and fewer waitlist deaths (157 vs. 199). The strategies produced similar total post-transplant survival (SLT = 4,586 yr vs. BLT = 4,577 yr). In sensitivity analyses, SLT always maximized the number of patients transplanted. The strategy that maximized post-transplant survival depended on the relative survival benefit of BLT versus SLT among patients with COPD, donor interval, and waitlist size.ConclusionsIn most circumstances, a policy of SLT for COPD improves access to organs for other potential recipients without significant reductions in total post-transplant survival. However, there may be substantial geographic variations in the effect of such a policy on the balance between these outcomes.

Human airway branch variation and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Project description:Susceptibility to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) beyond cigarette smoking is incompletely understood, although several genetic variants associated with COPD are known to regulate airway branch development. We demonstrate that in vivo central airway branch variants are present in 26.5% of the general population, are unchanged over 10 y, and exhibit strong familial aggregation. The most common airway branch variant is associated with COPD in two cohorts (n = 5,054), with greater central airway bifurcation density, and with emphysema throughout the lung. The second most common airway branch variant is associated with COPD among smokers, with narrower airway lumens in all lobes, and with genetic polymorphisms within the FGF10 gene. We conclude that central airway branch variation, readily detected by computed tomography, is a biomarker of widely altered lung structure with a genetic basis and represents a COPD susceptibility factor.

Airway host-microbiome interactions in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease.

Project description:BACKGROUND:Little is known about the interactions between the lung microbiome and host response in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). METHODS:We performed a longitudinal 16S ribosomal RNA gene-based microbiome survey on 101 sputum samples from 16 healthy subjects and 43 COPD patients, along with characterization of host sputum transcriptome and proteome in COPD patients. RESULTS:Dysbiosis of sputum microbiome was observed with significantly increased relative abundance of Moraxella in COPD versus healthy subjects and during COPD exacerbations, and Haemophilus in COPD ex-smokers versus current smokers. Multivariate modeling on sputum microbiome, host transcriptome and proteome profiles revealed that significant associations between Moraxella and Haemophilus, host interferon and pro-inflammatory signaling pathways and neutrophilic inflammation predominated among airway host-microbiome interactions in COPD. While neutrophilia was positively correlated with Haemophilus, interferon signaling was more strongly linked to Moraxella. Moreover, while Haemophilus was significantly associated with host factors both in stable state and during exacerbations, Moraxella-associated host responses were primarily related to exacerbations. CONCLUSIONS:Our study highlights a significant airway host-microbiome interplay associated with COPD inflammation and exacerbations. These findings indicate that Haemophilus and Moraxella influence different components of host immune response in COPD, and that novel therapeutic strategies should consider targeting these bacteria and their associated host pathways in COPD.
