Abstract
Background Spontaneous respiratory mechanical force interacted with the primary lung injury and aggravated the progression of ARDS clinically. But the exact role and involved mechanism of it in the pathogenesis of ARDS animal model remained obscure. Aim This study was to investigate the effect of spontaneous respiratory mechanical force on lung injury of ARDS in mice. Methods Female C57BL/6 mice were subjected to resistive spontaneous breathing (RSB) by tracheal banding after 4-6 h of intranasal inhalation of LPS. Pulmonary function was examined by Buxco system, partial pressures of oxygen and carbon dioxide (PO2 and PCO2) were measured by a blood gas analyzer, and lung pathological changes were analyzed with hematoxylin and eosin staining. The levels of inflammatory markers were quantified by ELISA, total protein assay, and FACS analysis. The expression levels of mechanosensitive ion channels were detected by qRT-PCR and immunohistochemistry. Results The airway resistance (Raw) was increased and the tidal volume (TV) was decreased remarkedly in RSB group. RSB treatment did not affect PO2, PCO2, pathology and inflammation levels of lung in mice. The Raw increased and ventilatory indicators decreased in RSB + ARDS compared to ARDS significantly. Besides, RSB treatment deteriorated the changes of PO2, PCO2 and level of lactic acid induced by LPS. Meanwhile, RSB significantly promoted LPS-induced pulmonary histopathological injury, and elevated the levels of IL-1β, IL-6, TNF-α and total proteins, increased neutrophils infiltration. The expression level of Piezo1 in RSB + ARDS group was remarkably reduced compared to ARDS group and consistent with the severity of pulmonary damage. Conclusion RSB exacerbated LPS-induced ARDS hypoxemia and hypercapnia, inflammation and damage. The mechanosensitive protein Piezo1 expression decreased and may play an important role in the process.

Abstract
Mechanosensitive ion channels sense force and pressure in immune cells to drive the inflammatory response in highly mechanical organs. Here, we report that Piezo1 channels repress group 2 innate lymphoid cell (ILC2)-driven type 2 inflammation in the lungs. Piezo1 is induced on lung ILC2s upon activation, as genetic ablation of Piezo1 in ILC2s increases their function and exacerbates the development of airway hyperreactivity (AHR). Conversely, Piezo1 agonist Yoda1 reduces ILC2-driven lung inflammation. Mechanistically, Yoda1 inhibits ILC2 cytokine secretion and proliferation in a KLF2-dependent manner, as we found that Piezo1 engagement reduces ILC2 oxidative metabolism. Consequently, in vivo Yoda1 treatment reduces the development of AHR in experimental models of ILC2-driven allergic asthma. Human-circulating ILC2s express and induce Piezo1 upon activation, as Yoda1 treatment of humanized mice reduces human ILC2-driven AHR. Our studies define Piezo1 as a critical regulator of ILC2s, and we propose the potential of Piezo1 activation as a novel therapeutic approach for the treatment of ILC2-driven allergic asthma.

Abstract
Sepsis, a prevalent critical condition in clinics, continues to be the leading cause of death from infections and a global healthcare issue. Among the organs susceptible to the harmful effects of sepsis, the lungs are notably the most frequently affected. Consequently, patients with sepsis are predisposed to developing acute lung injury (ALI), and in severe cases, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). Nevertheless, the precise mechanisms associated with the onset of ALI/ARDS remain elusive. In recent years, there has been a growing emphasis on the role of endothelial cells (ECs), a cell type integral to lung barrier function, and their interactions with various stromal cells in sepsis-induced ALI/ARDS. In this comprehensive review, we summarize the involvement of endothelial cells and their intricate interplay with immune cells and stromal cells, including pulmonary epithelial cells and fibroblasts, in the pathogenesis of sepsis-induced ALI/ARDS, with particular emphasis placed on discussing the several pivotal pathways implicated in this process. Furthermore, we discuss the potential therapeutic interventions for modulating the functions of endothelial cells, their interactions with immune cells and stromal cells, and relevant pathways associated with ALI/ARDS to present a potential therapeutic strategy for managing sepsis and sepsis-induced ALI/ARDS.

Abstract
The acute exudative phase of acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), a severe form of respiratory failure, is characterized by alveolar damage, pulmonary oedema, and an exacerbated inflammatory response. There is no effective treatment for this condition, but based on the major contribution of inflammation, anti-inflammatory strategies have been evaluated in animal models and clinical trials, with conflicting results. In COVID-19 ARDS patients, interleukin (IL)-1 and IL-6 receptor antagonists (IL-1Ra and IL-6Ra, kineret and tocilizumab, respectively) have shown some efficacy. Moreover, we have previously developed novel peptides modulating IL-1R and IL-6R activity (rytvela and HSJ633, respectively) while preserving immune vigilance and cytoprotective pathways. We aimed to assess the efficacy of these novel IL-1Ra and IL-6Ra, compared to commercially available drugs (kineret, tocilizumab) during the exudative phase (day 7) of bleomycin-induced acute lung injury (ALI) in mice. Our results first showed that none of the IL-1Ra and IL-6Ra compounds attenuated bleomycin-induced weight loss and venousP C O 2 ${P_{{\mathrm{C}}{{\mathrm{O}}_{\mathrm{2}}}}}$ increase. Histological analyses and lung water content measurements also showed that these drugs did not improve lung injury scores or pulmonary oedema, after the bleomycin challenge. Finally, IL-1Ra and IL-6Ra failed to alleviate the inflammatory status of the mice, as indicated by cytokine levels and alveolar neutrophil infiltration. Altogether, these results indicate a lack of beneficial effects of IL-1R and IL-6R antagonists on key parameters of ALI in the bleomycin mouse model.

Immun Inflamm Dis 2024; 12:e1164.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Acute lung injury (ALI) is the prevalent respiratory disease of acute inflammation with high morbidity and mortality. Fortunellin has anti-inflammation property, but its role in ALI remains elusive. Thus, this study clarified the function of fortunellin on ALI pathogenesis. METHODS The ALI mouse model was established by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induction, and lung tissue damage was evaluated utilizing hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining. The edema of lung tissue was measured by the lung wet/dry (W/D) ratio. The lung capillary permeability was reflected by the protein content in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Inflammatory cell infiltration was measured by the evaluation of the content of myeloperoxidase (MPO), neutrophils, and leukocytes in BALF. Cell apoptosis was measured by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL) assay. The secretions of inflammatory cytokines were quantified using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) assays. Lung tissue collagen deposition was evaluated by Masson staining. RESULTS Fortunellin attenuated LPS-induced lung tissue damage and reduced the W/D ratio, the content of MPO in lung tissue, the total protein contents in BALF, and the neutrophils and leukocytes number. Besides, fortunellin alleviated LPS-stimulated lung tissue apoptosis, inflammatory response, and collagen deposition. Furthermore, Fortunellin repressed the activity of the Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4)/nuclear factor kappa-B (NF-κB)/NLR Family Pyrin Domain Containing 3 (NLRP3) pathway in the LPS-stimulated ALI model and LPS-induced RAW264.7 cells. Moreover, fortunellin attenuated LPS-stimulated tissue injury, apoptosis, inflammation, and collagen deposition of the lung via restraining the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway. CONCLUSION Fortunellin attenuated LPS-stimulated ALI through repressing the TLR4/NF-κB/NLRP3 pathway. Fortunellin may be a valuable drug for ALI therapy.

Abstract
Electrical mechanosensing is a process mediated by specialized ion channels, gated directly or indirectly by mechanical forces, which allows cells to detect and subsequently respond to mechanical stimuli. The activation of mechanosensitive (MS) ion channels, intrinsically gated by mechanical forces, or mechanoresponsive (MR) ion channels, indirectly gated by mechanical forces, results in electrical signaling across lipid bilayers, such as the plasma membrane. While the functions of mechanically gated channels within a sensory context (e.g., proprioception and touch) are well described, there is emerging data demonstrating functions beyond touch and proprioception, including mechanoregulation of intracellular signaling and cellular/systemic metabolism. Both MR and MS ion channel signaling have been shown to contribute to the regulation of metabolic dysfunction, including obesity, insulin resistance, impaired insulin secretion, and inflammation. This review summarizes our current understanding of the contributions of several MS/MR ion channels in cell types implicated in metabolic dysfunction, namely, adipocytes, pancreatic β-cells, hepatocytes, and skeletal muscle cells, and discusses MS/MR ion channels as possible therapeutic targets. © 2024 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To explore the mechanism underlying the protective effect of sevoflurane against ventilator-induced lung injury (VILI). METHODS Thirty-two SD rats were randomized into mechanical ventilation (MV) group, MV+sevoflurane group (MS group), MV+sevoflurane+transient receptor potential vanillate subtype 4 (TRPV4) agonist group (MST group) and MV+ sevoflurane + vehicle group (MSV group). Arachidonic acid (AA) in the lung tissues was quantified with ELISA. TRPV4, cytoplasmic phospholipase A2 (C-PLA2) and myosin light chain kinase (MLCK) protein expressions were detected by Western blotting. Lung injury in the rats was evaluated by assessing MLCK protein expression level, pulmonary permeability index, lung wet/dry ratio, leukocyte count in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF), myeloperoxidase content in lung tissue, and histological score of the lungs. RESULTS The rats in MV group showed significantly increased TRPV4 and C-PLA2 expression levels in the lung tissues with increased lung permeability and obvious lung inflammation compared with those in the other 3 groups (P < 0.05). No significant differences were found in the parameters associated with lung injuries between MS group and MSV group. Compared with those in MST group, the rats in MS group and MSV group showed significantly reduced AA production and TRPV4 and C-PLA2 expressions in the lungs (P < 0.05) with alleviated lung hyper-permeability and inflammation (P < 0.05). CONCLUSION Sevoflurane protects against VILI in rats by down-regulating the TRPV4/C-PLA2 signaling pathway.
