Project description:A variety of airborne pathogens can induce inflammatory responses in airway epithelial cells, which is a crucial component of host defence. However, excessive inflammatory responses and chronic inflammation also contribute to different diseases in the respiratory system. We hypothesized that the activation of protein kinase C (PKC) is one of the essential mechanisms of inflammatory responses in airway epithelial cells. In the present study, we stimulated human bronchial lung epithelial (BEAS-2B) cells with phorbol ester Phorbol 12, 13-dibutyrate (PDBu), and examined gene expression profile with microarray analysis. Bioinformatics suggested that PKC activation induced dramatic changes in gene expression related to multiple cellular functions. The top two functional networks of genes were centered on NFM-NM-:B and TNF-M-NM-1, which are two commonly known pathways for cell death and inflammation. Subsequent tests confirmed the decrease in cell viability and increase in the production of various cytokines. Interestingly, each of the increased cytokines was differentially regulated at mRNA and/or protein levels by different sub-class of PKC isozymes. We conclude that many pathogen-induced cell death and cytokine production in airway epithelial cells may be mediated through PKC related signaling pathways. These findings suggest that PKCs can be new targets for treatments of lung diseases. Three groups of BEAS-2B cells were prepared: control, 0.5 hour of PDBu stimulation, and 4 hours of PDBu stimulation. Each group consisted of three biological replicates.

Project description:Pandemic H1N1 influenza A (H1N1pdm) elicits stronger pulmonary inflammation than previously circulating seasonal H1N1 influenza A (sH1N1), yet mechanisms of inflammatory activation in respiratory epithelial cells during H1N1pdm infection are unclear. We investigated host responses to H1N1pdm / sH1N1 infection and virus entry mechanisms in primary human bronchial epithelial cells in vitro. H1N1pdm infection rapidly initiated a robust inflammatory gene signature (3 h post-infection) not elicited by sH1N1 infection. Protein secretion inhibition had no effect on gene induction. Infection with membrane fusion deficient H1N1pdm failed to induce robust inflammatory gene expression which was rescued with restoration of fusion ability, suggesting H1N1pdm directly triggered the inflammatory signature downstream of membrane fusion. Investigation of intra-virion components revealed H1N1pdm viral RNA (vRNA) triggered a stronger inflammatory phenotype than sH1N1 vRNA. Thus, our study is first to report H1N1pdm induces greater inflammatory gene expression than sH1N1 in vitro due to direct virus-epithelial cell interaction. Total RNA obtained from Normal Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells (NHBEC) at 3 hours or 24 hours post-infection with either 0.9 MOI A/Mexico/4108/2009 (H1N1) or 0.9 MOI A/Brisbane/59/2007 (H1N1). Total RNA was also collected at 0 hours from uninfected NHBEC for each infection. Changes in gene expression relative to uninfected cells were then investigated.

Project description:Cigarette smoke (CS) is a major risk factor in the development of chronic inflammatory lung diseases such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. To evaluate the biological impact of CS on lung tissue, three-dimensional (3D) organotypic bronchial tissue cultures can be used to replicate in vivo conditions. We developed an original 3D human bronchial epithelial co-culture model to assess the biological impact of repeated CS exposure on cell differentiation and on the inflammatory response. We found that CS can disrupt homeostatic capacity in a dose-dependent manner, and that the activation of the EGFR pathway, which is involved in the early-stage pathogenesis of airway diseases, was predicted from transcriptomic data. We believe that our model of bronchial tissues, used for repeated CS exposure, can provide valuable information on tissue-specific alterations in biological systems.

Project description:This present study is the first to investigate the global changes in host gene expression during the interaction of human bronchial epithelial cells and live Alternaria spores. Human bronchial epithelial cells (BEAS2-B) were exposed to spores or media alone for 24 hours. RNA was collected from three biological replicates/treatment and used to assess changes in gene expression patterns using Affymetrix Human Genome U133 Plus 2.0 Arrays. Interestingly, many cytokine/chemokine immune response genes were upregulated. Genes involved in cell death, retinoic acid signaling, TLR3, and interferon response pathways were also significantly upregulated. Three biological replicates for control (untreated cells) and treatment (5 x 10^5 A. alternata spores)

Project description:Responsiveness of cells to alpha-toxin (Hla) from Staphylococcus aureus appears to occur in a cell-type dependent manner. Here, we compare two human bronchial epithelial cell lines, i.e. Hla-susceptible 16HBE14o- and Hla-resistant S9 cells, by a quantitative multi-omics strategy for a better understanding of Hla-induced cellular programs. Phosphoproteomics revealed a substantial impact on phosphorylation-dependent signaling in both cell models and highlights alterations in signaling pathways associated with cell-cell and cell-matrix contacts as well as the actin cytoskeleton as key features of early rHla-induced effects. Along comparable changes in down-stream activity of major protein kinases significant differences between both models were found upon rHla-treatment including activation of EGFR and MAPK1/3 signaling in S9 and repression in 16HBE14o- cells. System-wide transcript and protein expression profiling indicate induction of an immediate early response in either model. In addition, EGFR and MAPK1/3-mediated changes in gene expression suggest cellular recovery and survival in S9 cells but cell death in 16HBE14o- cells. Strikingly, inhibition of the EGFR sensitized S9 cells to Hla indicating that the cellular capacity of activation of the EGFR is a major protective determinant against Hla-mediated cytotoxic effects. Design includes two different human bronchial epithelial cell lines, one control treatment (mock treatment for 2 hours) and one condition (2 alpha toxin treatment for 2 hours). Experiments for both cell line were replicated twice (biological replication).

Project description:Unlike mouse embryonic stem (ES) cells, which are closely related to the inner cell mass, human ES cells appear to be more closely related to the later primitive ectoderm. For example, human ES cells and primitive ectoderm share a common epithelial morphology, growth factor requirements, and the potential to differentiate to all three embryonic germ layers. However, it has previously been shown that human ES cells can also differentiate to cells expressing markers of trophoblast, an extraembryonic lineage formed before the formation of primitive ectoderm. Here we show that phorbol ester 12-O-Tetradecanoylphorbol 13-acetate (TPA) causes human ES cells to undergo an epithelial mesenchymal transition and to differentiate into cells expressing markers of parietal endoderm, another extraembryonic lineage. We further confirmed that this differentiation is through the activation of PKC pathway and demonstrated that a particular PKC subtype, PKC-delta, is most responsible for this transition. This is a time course design. It includes 16 samples.

Project description:The goal was to assess global gene expression changes in primary human bronchial epithelial cells exposed to environmental tobacco smoke (ETS) condensate. ETS-C was standardized by HPLC analysis and two timepoints of exposure in two different donor bronchial epithelial cell populations were assessed. These findings demonstrate that even short exposure (4.5 h) to ETS is sufficient to induce a stress response, as reflected by decreased antioxidant levels, induced HSP family members, and modulation of the family of glutathione metabolism enzymes in primary human lung cells. Upon longer exposures (48 h) with ETS-condensate, bronchial epithelial cells arrest at the G2/M phase of the cell cycle. Taken together, these data support a stress-induced state in primary human bronchial epithelial cells that culminates in cell cycle arrest. Keywords: time course, comparative, stress response
