However, repeated clinical use of β‐agonists leads to impaired bronchoprotection and, in some cases, adverse patient outcomes. Mechanisms underlying this β2‐adrenoceptor dysfunction are not well understood, due largely to the lack of a comprehensive animal model and the uncertainty as to whether or not bronchorelaxation in mice is mediated by β2‐adrenoceptors. Thus, we aimed to develop a mouse model that demonstrated functional β‐agonist‐induced β2‐adrenoceptor desensitization in the context of allergic inflammatory airway disease.EXPERIMENTAL APPROACH We combined chronic allergen exposure with repeated β‐agonist inhalation in allergen‐treated BALB/C mice and examined the contribution of β2‐adrenoceptors to albuterol‐induced bronchoprotection using FVB/NJ mice with genetic deletion of β2‐adrenoceptors (KO). Associated inflammatory changes – cytokines (ELISA), cells in bronchoalevolar lavage and airway remodelling (histology) and β2‐adrenoceptor density (radioligand binding) – were also measured.KEY RESULTS β2‐Adrenoceptors mediated albuterol‐induced bronchoprotection in mice. Chronic treatment with albuterol induced loss of bronchoprotection, associated with exacerbation of the inflammatory components of the asthma phenotype.CONCLUSIONS AND IMPLICATIONS This animal model reproduced salient features of human asthma and linked loss of bronchoprotection with airway pathobiology. Accordingly, the model offers an advanced tool for understanding the mechanisms of the effects of chronic β‐ agonist treatment on β‐adrenoceptor function in asthma. Such information may guide the clinical use of β‐agonists and provide insight into development of novel β‐adrenoceptor ligands for the treatment of asthma.}, number={7}, journal={BRITISH JOURNAL OF PHARMACOLOGY}, author={Lin, Rui and Degan, Simone and Theriot, Barbara S. and Fischer, Bernard M. and Strachan, Ryan T. and Liang, Jiurong and Pierce, Richard A. and Sunday, Mary E. and Noble, Paul W. and Kraft, Monica and et al.}, year={2012}, month={Apr}, pages={2365–2377} }

Abstract
Side population (SP) assay composed of Hoechst 33342 staining and subsequent flow cytometric analysis has been widely utilized for characterizing putative cancer stem cells (CSCs) in various human malignancies. The present study was designed to evaluate the SP assay as a research tool for mesothelial CSCs. A distinct fraction of SP cells was identified in various human malignant mesothelioma (HMM) cell lines, ranging from 0.05 to 1.32%. The sorted mesothelial SP cells exhibited enhanced proliferation potentials and higher expression of stem-cell genes, compared to non-SP (NSP) cells. Cisplatin treatment increased percentage of SP cells in the HMM cell lines. However, tumorigenic potential of SP cells in immunodeficient mice was similar to that of the NSP cells. These data indicated that SP assay may not be appropriate for enriching putative CSCs in HMM cell lines, and thus warrants the development of a novel tool for mesothelial CSC study.}, number={2}, journal={LUNG CANCER}, author={Kai, Kiyonori and D'Costa, Susan and Yoon, Byung-Il and Brody, Arnold R. and Sills, Robert C. and Kim, Yongbaek}, year={2010}, month={Nov}, pages={146–151} }

Differentiated MSCs, called circulating fibrocytes, have been demonstrated in human lungs and migrate to injured lung tissue in experimental models. It is likely that MSCs migrate from the bone marrow to sites of injury by following increasing chemokine concentrations. In the present study, we show that primary mouse bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BM-MSCs) exhibit directed chemotaxis through transwell inserts toward increasing concentrations of the chemokines complement component 5a, stromal cell-derived factor-1alpha, and monocyte chemotactic protein-1. Prior research has indicated that myristoylated alanine-rich C kinase substrate (MARCKS) protein is critically important for motility in macrophages, neutrophils, and fibroblasts, and here we investigated a possible role for MARCKS in BM-MSC directed chemotaxis. The presence of MARCKS in these cells as well as in human cord blood MSC was verified by Western blotting, and MARCKS was rapidly phosphorylated in these cells after exposure to chemokines. A synthetic peptide that inhibits MARCKS function attenuated, in a concentration-dependent manner, directed chemotaxis of BM-MSCs, while a missense control peptide had no effect. Our results illustrate, for the first time, that MARCKS protein plays an integral role in BM-MSC-directed chemotaxis in vitro.}, number={3}, journal={American Journal of Respiratory Cell and Molecular Biology}, publisher={American Thoracic Society}, author={Miller, Jeffrey D. and Lankford, Susan M. and Adler, Kenneth B. and Brody, Arnold R.}, year={2010}, month={Sep}, pages={253–258} }

Here, we asked whether MSC (derived from mouse bone marrow and human umbilical cord blood) produce factors that mediate lung fibroblast (LF) growth and matrix production. MSC-conditioned media (CM) were found by ELISA to contain significant amounts of PDGF-AA and transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1). Proliferation was increased in a concentration-dependent manner in LF cell lines and primary cells cultured in MSC-CM, but neither anti-PDGF antibodies nor PDGF receptor-specific antibodies affected proliferation, nor did a number of other antibodies to well-known mitogenic factors. However, proliferation was significantly inhibited by the Wnt signaling antagonist, secreted frizzled related protein-1 (sFRP-1). In addition, anti-Wnt1 and anti-Wnt2 antibodies attenuated MSC-CM-induced proliferation, and increased expression of Wnt7b was identified. As would be expected in cells activated by Wnt, nuclear β-catenin was increased. The amount of TGF-β1 in MSC-CM and its biological activity were revealed by activation at acidic pH. The stem cells synthesized and released TGF-β1 that increased α1-procollagen gene expression by LF target cells. Addition of anti-TGF-β to the MSC-CM blocked upregulation of collagen gene expression. These data demonstrate that MSC from mice and humans produce Wnt proteins and TGF-β1 that respectively stimulate LF proliferation and matrix production, two hallmarks of fibroproliferative lung disease. It will be essential to determine whether these factors can play a role in attempts to use MSC for therapeutic approaches. }, number={5}, journal={AMERICAN JOURNAL OF PHYSIOLOGY-LUNG CELLULAR AND MOLECULAR PHYSIOLOGY}, author={Salazar, Keith D. and Lankford, Susan M. and Brody, Arnold R.}, year={2009}, month={Nov}, pages={L1002–L1011} }

ILD can be caused by a number of agents, including inhaled asbestos, and may ultimately result in respiratory failure and death. Currently, there are no effective treatments for ILD. Transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta1) is thought to play an important role in the development of pulmonary fibrosis, and asbestos has been shown to induce TGF-beta1 expression in a murine model of ILD. To better define the role of TGF-beta1 in ILD, we developed several small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) that target TGF-beta1 mRNA for degradation. To assess the efficacy of each siRNA in reducing asbestos-induced TGF-beta1 expression, Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts were transfected with TGF-beta1 siRNAs and then treated with chrysotile asbestos for 48 h. Two independent siRNAs targeting TGF-beta1 mRNA knocked-down asbestos-induced expression of TGF-beta1 mRNA by 72-89% and protein by 70-84%. Interestingly, siRNA knockdown of TGF-beta1 also reduced asbestos-induced expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF). CTGF can be upregulated by TGF-beta1 and appears to play an important role in the development of pulmonary fibrosis. These results suggest that siRNAs could be effective in preventing or possibly arresting the progression of pulmonary fibrosis.

There are clear interrelationships and overlap between the actions of TNF-α and TGF-β1 in lung fibrosis; therefore, we postulated that TNF-α may play a significant role in regulating TGF-β1 expression in lungs. We recently reported that TNF-α activates the extracellular regulated kinase (ERK)-specific pathway in fibroblasts resulting in stabilization of TGF-β1 mRNA and increased expression of TGF-β1. In the current study, we further investigated the molecular mechanisms involved in TNF-α regulation of TGF-β1 expression. Nuclear run-on assays showed that treatment of Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts with TNF-α increased transcription of the TGF-β1 gene in an ERK independent manner. Pre-treatment with the activator protein-1 (AP-1) inhibitor curcumin attenuated TNF-α induced transcription of the TGF-β1 gene. TNF-α induced increased levels of c-Jun and C-Fos in the nucleus accompanied by phosphorylation of c-Jun. In electrophoretic mobility shift assays, AP-1 binding to an AP-1 binding site found within the TGF-β1 promoter was increased in nuclear extracts from Swiss 3T3 fibroblasts treated with TNF-α. Together, these results suggest that TNF-α induces expression and DNA binding of AP-1 resulting in increased transcription of the TGF-β1 gene.

Previously we showed that TNFα and TGFβ1 are up-regulated in macrophages, epithelial and mesenchymal cells early after exposure to chrysotile asbestos, particularly at sites of fiber deposition in vivo. We also showed that TNFα receptor knockout mice are resistant to asbestos-induced fibrosis. Importantly, vectors that over-express TNFα cause inflammation and fibrogenesis along with increased TGFβ1 production in C57Bl/6 mice. Recently we reported that TNFα activates the extracellular regulated kinase pathway in fibroblasts leading to a 200–400% increase in TGFβ1 mRNA and protein. The mechanism of TNFα induction of TGFβ1 expression appears to be complex, involving both transcriptional and post-transcriptional mechanisms. In asbestos-exposed animals, this TGFβ1 is produced on alveolar surfaces in a latent form (controlled by binding of a latent associated peptide [LAP]) that must be activated for the TGFβ1 to bind to its receptors and induce its multiple biological effects. Thus, we recently reported that, in vitro, reactive oxygen species (ROS) derived from chrysotile and crocidolite asbestos activate TGFβ1 by oxidation of the LAP. Now, in preliminary findings, we have shown that over-expression of latent TGFβ1 prior to asbestos exposure of fibrogenic-resistant TNFα receptor knockout mice produces asbestos lesions with the same severity as seen in normal C57/Bl6 mice. This finding plus the demonstration of increased amounts of TGFβ1, increased Smad activation and amelioration of the developing disease by treating the mice with an anti-oxidant all support the concept that, in vivo, latent TGFβ1 is activated by asbestos-generated oxygen radicals and consequently mediates at least a component of the consequent fibrogenesis. Taken together, these findings support the postulate that TNFα controls fibrogenesis by regulating TGFβ1 expression and that one mechanism through which ROS induce lung fibrosis is by activating latent TGFβ 1.}, number={2}, journal={JOURNAL OF IMMUNOTOXICOLOGY}, author={Sullivan, Deborah E. and Ferris, MaryBeth and Pociask, Derek and Brody, Arnold R.}, year={2008}, pages={145–149} }

Bone marrow-derived cells have been shown to engraft during lung fibrosis. However, it is not known if similar cells engraft consequent to inhalation of asbestos fibers that cause pulmonary fibrosis, or if the cells proliferate and differentiate at sites of injury.
OBJECTIVES
We examined whether bone marrow-derived cells participate in the pulmonary fibrosis that is produced by exposure to chrysotile asbestos fibers.
METHODS
Adult female rats were lethally irradiated and rescued by bone marrow transplant from male transgenic rats ubiquitously expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP). Three weeks later, the rats were exposed to an asbestos aerosol for 5 hours on three consecutive days. Controls were bone marrow-transplanted but not exposed to asbestos.
MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS
One day and 2.5 weeks after exposure, significant numbers of GFP-labeled male cells had preferentially migrated to the bronchiolar-alveolar duct bifurcations, the specific anatomic site at which asbestos produces the initial fibrogenic lesions. GFP-positive cells were present at the lesions as monocytes and macrophages, fibroblasts, and myofibroblasts or smooth muscle cells. Staining with antibodies to PCNA demonstrated that some of the engrafted cells were proliferating in the lesions and along the bronchioles. Negative results for TUNEL at the lesions confirmed that both PCNA-positive endogenous pulmonary cells and bone marrow-derived cells were proliferating rather than undergoing apoptosis, necrosis, or DNA repair.
CONCLUSIONS
Bone marrow-derived cells migrated into developing fibrogenic lesions, differentiated into multiple cell types, and persisted for at least 2.5 weeks after the animals were exposed to aerosolized chrysotile asbestos fibers.}, number={4}, journal={AMERICAN JOURNAL OF RESPIRATORY AND CRITICAL CARE MEDICINE}, author={Spees, Jeffrey L. and Pociask, Derek A. and Sullivan, Deborah E. and Whitney, Mandolin J. and Lasky, Joseph A. and Prockop, Darwin J. and Brody, Arnold R.}, year={2007}, month={Aug}, pages={385–394} }

These five genes, along with matrix metalloproteinase 9, a collagenase found to be increased in several lung diseases, are known to control matrix production and cell proliferation in humans and animals. Here we show by laser capture microdissection that (i) The six genes are expressed at significantly higher levels in the asbestos‐exposed mice when comparing the same anatomic regions ‘captured’ in unexposed mice. (ii) The bronchiolar‐alveolar duct (BAD) junctions, where the greatest number of fibres initially deposit, were always significantly higher than the other anatomic regions for each gene. The first alveolar duct bifurcation (ADB) generally was higher than the second ADB, the ADBs were always significantly higher than the airway walls and pleura, and the airway walls and pleura were generally higher than the unexposed tissues. (iii) Animals exposed for 3 days always exhibited significantly higher levels of gene expression at the BAD junctions and ADBs than animals exposed for 2 days.
