- Pharmacologic inhibition of S-nitrosoglutathione reductase protects against experimental asthma in BALB/c mice through attenuation of both bronchoconstriction and inflammation.
- Blonder JP, Mutka SC, Sun X, Qiu J, Green LH, Mehra NK, Boyanapalli R, Suniga M, Look K, Delany C, Richards JP, Looker D, Scoggin C, Rosenthal GJ.AbstractBACKGROUND: S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO) serves as a reservoir for nitric oxide (NO) and thus is a key homeostatic regulator of airway smooth muscle tone and inflammation. Decreased levels of GSNO in the lungs of asthmatics have been attributed to increased GSNO catabolism via GSNO reductase (GSNOR) leading to loss of GSNO- and NO- mediated bronchodilatory and anti-inflammatory actions. GSNOR inhibition with the novel small molecule, N6022, was explored as a therapeutic approach in an experimental model of asthma.

- Predictors of neutrophilic airway inflammation in young smokers with asthma.
- Westergaard C, Munck C, Helby J, Porsbjerg C, Hansen L, Backer V.Author information Respiratory Research Unit, Bispebjerg University Hospital, Copenhagen, Denmark.AbstractIntroduction: Asthma is one of the most widespread chronic diseases worldwide. In spite of numerous detrimental effects on asthma, smoking is common among asthma patients. These smoking-induced aggravations of asthma may be attributed to changes in airway inflammation, which is characterized by a higher degree of neutrophilic inflammation than in non-smokers. A state of neutrophilic inflammation may lead to increased steroid resistance and an accelerated loss of lung function owing to tissue destruction. The aim of the present study was to elucidate predictors of neutrophilic inflammation in young asthmatic smokers not on steroid treatment, including analysis of tobacco history and bacterial colonization. Methods: In a cross-sectional study, 52 steroid-free, current smokers with asthma were examined with induced sputum, fractional exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO), lung function, ACQ6 score, mannitol and methacholine challenge. A sample from the sputum induction was taken for bacterial analysis using 16S gene PCR technique and sequencing. Results: Using one-way ANOVA and binary and linear regression models, only age and ACQ6 score were found to be significant predictors for airway neutrophilia. The investigation also included analysis for effect of pack years, current tobacco consumption, body mass index, lung function, FeNO; methacholine and mannitol responsiveness, atopy, gender, asthma history and presence of bacteria. The most common potentially pathogenic bacteria found were Streptococcus spp., Haemophilus spp. and Mycoplasma spp. Conclusion: In the present study, no tobacco related predictors of airway neutrophilia were found, indicating that in the younger years of asthma patients who smoke, the amount of tobacco smoked in life does not influence the degree of neutrophilia. Conversely, for asthmatic smokers neutrophilia may be induced when a certain threshold of tobacco consumption is reached.
