The airway epithelium (AE) fulfils multiple functions to maintain pulmonary homeostasis, among which ensuring adequate barrier function, cell differentiation and polarization, actively transporting immunoglobulin A (IgA), the predominant mucosal in lumen, via polymeric receptor (pIgR). Morphological changes of airways have been reported ARDS, while their detailed features, impact for immunity, causative mechanisms remain unclear. Therefore, this study aimed assess epithelial alterations distal patients with ARDS.

Formerly regarded as a rare disease, bronchiectasis is increasingly recognised. A renewed interest in this disease has led to significant progress research. Randomised clinical trials (RCTs) have demonstrated the benefits of airway clearance techniques, inhaled antibiotics and long-term macrolide therapy patients. However, heterogeneity remains one most challenging aspects management. Phenotypes endotypes been identified help find “treatable traits” partially overcome complexity. The goals for are reduce symptom burden, improve quality life, exacerbations prevent progression. We review pharmacological non-pharmacological treatments that can mucociliary clearance, inflammation tackle infection, key pathophysiological features bronchiectasis. There also promising development management bronchiectasis, including novel anti-inflammatory therapies. This provides critical update on focusing treatable traits recent RCTs.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a progressive interstitial lung disease in which repetitive epithelial injury and incomplete alveolar repair result accumulation of profibrotic intermediate/transitional “aberrant” cell states. The mechanisms leading to the emergence persistence aberrant populations distal remain incompletely understood. By interrogating single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data from patients with IPF mouse model repeated injury, we identified persistent activation hypoxia-inducible factor (HIF) signaling these cells. Using genetic lineage-tracing strategies together scRNA-seq, found that disease-emergent cells predominantly arose airway-derived ( Scgb1a1-CreER –traced) progenitors exhibited transcriptional programs Hif2a activation. In mice treated intratracheal bleomycin, deletion Epas1 (Hif2a) but not Hif1a , progenitors, or administration small-molecule HIF2 inhibitor PT-2385, using both prevention rescue approaches, attenuated experimental fibrosis, reduced appearance cells, promoted repair. organoids, pharmacologic inhibition Hif2 differentiation progenitors. addition, treatment human organoids PT-2385 increased colony-forming efficiency, enhanced protein markers type 2 maturation, prevented Together, studies showed drives after targeted may represent an effective therapeutic strategy promote functional other diseases.

Rationale: Non–cystic fibrosis bronchiectasis (NCFB) may originate in bronchiolar regions of the lung. Accordingly, there is a need to characterize morphology and molecular characteristics NCFB bronchioles. Objectives: Test hypothesis that exhibits major component disease manifest by mucus plugging ectasia. Methods: Morphologic criteria region-specific epithelial gene expression, measured histologically RNA situ hybridization immunohistochemistry, identified proximal distal bronchioles excised lungs. immunohistochemistry assessed accumulation mucin expression. CRISPR-Cas9–mediated IL-1R1 knockout human bronchial cultures tested IL-1α IL-1β contributions production. Spatial transcriptional profiling characterized Measurements Main Results: Bronchiolar perimeters lumen areas per section area were increased proximal, but not distal, versus control lungs, suggesting bronchiolectasis. In NCFB, was observed ectatic associated nonectatic sections with disease. MUC5AC MUC5B mucins upregulated bronchioles, whereas selectively plugs populated IL-1β–expressing macrophages. sterile sputum supernatants induced expression >80% blocked ablation. upregulation genes secretory cells, hypoxia, interleukin pathways, IL-1β–producing macrophages downregulation ciliogenesis genes. Conclusions: distinctive Both exhibit cell features differ regulation
