(Submitter supplied) CXCL14, a recently described chemokine constitutively expressed in various epithelia, has multiple putative roles in inflammation and carcinogenesis. Based on the knowledge that cigarette smoking and the smoking-induced disorders, such as chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and lung cancer, are associated with inflammation, we hypothesized that the airway epithelium, the primary site of smoking-induced pathologic changes in COPD and adenocarcinoma, responds to cigarette smoking with an altered CXCL14 gene expression as a part of disease-relevant molecular phenotype. more...

(Submitter supplied) Testican 3 (coded for by SPOCK3), is an extracellular matrix heparan/chondroitin sulphate proteoglycan that possesses serine and cysteine protease inhibitor-like domains Based on the knowledge that serine proteases contribute to the destruction of the lung in cigarette smokers, but that only a fraction of smokers develop smoking-induced lung disease, we hypothesized that smokers expressed SPOCK3 at lower levels in the small airway epithelium, the initial site of smoking-induced disease, and further, that genetic variability modulates the expression of SPOCK3 in the airway epithelium. more...

(Submitter supplied) The first changes associated with smoking are in the small airway epithelium (SAE). Given that smoking alters SAE gene expression, but only a fraction of smokers develop chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), we hypothesized that assessment of SAE genome-wide gene expression would permit biologic phenotyping of the smoking response, and that a subset of healthy smokers would have a “COPD-like” SAE transcriptome. more...

(Submitter supplied) The apical junctional complex (AJC), composed of tight junctions and adherens junctions, is essential for maintaining epithelial barrier function. Since cigarette smoking and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), the major smoking-induced disease, are both associated with increased lung epithelial permeability, we hypothesized that smoking alters the transcriptional program regulating AJC integrity in the small airway epithelium (SAE), the primary site of pathological changes in COPD. more...

(Submitter supplied) The Wnt pathway plays a central role in controlling differentiation of epithelial tissues; when Wnt is on, differentiation is suppressed, but when Wnt is off, differentiation is allowed to proceed. Based on this concept, we hypothesized that expression of key genes in the Wnt pathway are suppressed in the human airway epithelium under the stress of cigarette smoking, a stress associated with dysregulation of the differentiated state of the airway epithelium. more...

(Submitter supplied) Microarray technology provides a powerful tool for defining gene expression profiles of airway epithelium that lend insight into the pathogenesis of human airway disorders. The focus of this study was to establish rigorous quality control parameters to ensure that microarray assessment of the airway epithelium is not confounded by experimental artifact. Samples (total n=223) of trachea, large and small airway epithelium were collected by fiberoptic bronchoscopy of 144 individuals (42 healthy non-smokers, 49 healthy smokers, 11 symptomatic smokers, 22 smokers with lone emphysema with normal spirometry, and 20 smokers with COPD) were processed and hybridized to Affymetrix HG-U133 2.0 Plus microarrays. more...

(Submitter supplied) Despite overwhelming data that cigarette smoking causes chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), only a minority of chronic smokers are affected, strongly suggesting that genetic factors modify susceptibility to this disease. We hypothesized that there are individual variations in the response to cigarette smoking, with variability among smokers in expression levels of protective / susceptibility genes. more...
