Phosphate induces inflammation and exacerbates injury from cigarette smoke in the bronchial epithelium.

ABSTRACT: An elevation in serum phosphate-also called hyperphosphatemia-is associated with reduced kidney function in chronic kidney disease (CKD). Reports show CKD patients are more likely to develop lung disease and have poorer kidney function that positively correlates with pulmonary obstruction. However, the underlying mechanisms are not well understood. Here, we report that two murine models of CKD, which both exhibit increased serum levels of phosphate and fibroblast growth factor (FGF) 23, a regulator of phosphate homeostasis, develop concomitant airway inflammation. Our in vitro studies point towards a similar increase of phosphate-induced inflammatory markers in human bronchial epithelial cells. FGF23 stimulation alone does not induce a proinflammatory response in the non-COPD bronchial epithelium and phosphate does not cause endogenous FGF23 release. Upregulation of the phosphate-induced proinflammatory cytokines is accompanied by activation of the extracellular-signal regulated kinase (ERK) pathway. Moreover, the addition of cigarette smoke extract (CSE) during phosphate treatments exacerbates inflammation as well as ERK activation, whereas co-treatment with FGF23 attenuates both the phosphate as well as the combined phosphate- and CS-induced inflammatory response, independent of ERK activation. Together, these data demonstrate a novel pathway that potentially explains pathological kidney-lung crosstalk with phosphate as a key mediator.

Project description:Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is a prevalent and long-term airway disease. It has been reported that fucoxanthin (FX) exhibits anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects. However, the underlying mechanism of FX in COPD remains unknown. Therefore, to investigate the effect of FX on COPD, BEAS-2B cells were treated with cigarette smoke extract (CSE). The viability of BEAS-2B cells treated with increasing doses of FX was assessed by Cell Counting Kit-8. Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels were measured using a corresponding kit. In addition, ELISA was carried out to detect the content of TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-6. Additionally, a TUNEL assay and western blot analysis were performed to assess the cell apoptosis rate. Furthermore, 2',7'-dichlorodihydrofluorescein diacetate was used to measure reactive oxygen species levels, while the contents of oxidative stress-associated indexes were determined using the corresponding kits. Bioinformatics analysis using the search tool for interactions of chemicals database predicted that peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ) may be a target of FX. The binding capacity of FTX with PPARγ was confirmed by molecular docking. The protein expression levels of the PPARγ/NF-κB signaling-associated factors were detected by western blot analysis. Finally, the regulatory mechanism of FX in COPD was revealed following cell treatment with the PPARγ inhibitor, T0070907. The results demonstrated that FX enhanced CSE-induced BEAS-2B cell viability and attenuated CSE-induced BEAS-2B cell inflammation and oxidative damage, possibly via triggering PPARγ/NF-κB signaling. Pre-treatment of BEAS-2B cells with the PPARγ inhibitor, T0070907, could reverse the protective effects of FX on CSE-induced BEAS-2B cells. Overall, the present study suggested that FX could ameliorate oxidative damage as well as inflammation in CSE-treated human bronchial epithelial in patients with COPD via modulating the PPARγ/NF-κB signaling pathway.
