Abstract
Airway remodeling (AR) consists of wall thickening and hyperreactivity. STIM (stromal interaction molecule) and Orai protein pathways mediate extracellular Ca2+ signals involved in AR. This study aims to define the effects on AR of the STIM-Orai antagonist SKF 96365 given by inhalation in three increasing doses in ovalbumin-induced AR. In the control group, the antiasthmatic budesonide and salbutamol were given in the same model. The airway structure was evaluated by histological and immunohistochemistry and reactivity by specific airway resistance, contraction strength of isolated airway smooth muscles, and mucociliary clearance expressed by ciliary beating frequency. The immuno-biochemical markers of chronic inflammation were evaluated by BioPlex and ELISA assays. The AR was mediated by inflammatory cytokines and growth factors. The findings show significant anti-remodeling effects of SKF 96365, which were associated with a decrease in airway hyperreactivity. The anti-remodeling effect of SKF 96365 was mediated via the suppression of IL-4, IL-5, and IL-13 synthesis, and IL-12–INF-γ–TGF-β pathway. The budesonide-related AR suppression had to do with a decrease in proinflammatory cytokines and an increase in the anti-inflammatory IL-10, with negligible influence on growth factors synthesis and mucous glands activity.
