Abstract
PURPOSE Acute exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (AECOPD) is a complication of COPD that typically necessitates intensified treatment and hospitalization. It is linked to higher morbidity, mortality and healthcare spending. Assessment of therapy response for AECOPD is difficult due to the variability of symptoms and limitations in current measures. Hence, there is a need for new biomarkers to aid in the management of AECOPD in acute care settings. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifteen hospitalized AECOPD patients (GOLD 3-4) were enrolled in this study. Treatment response was assessed daily through clinical evaluations and by monitoring tidal breathing biomarkers (respiratory rate [RR], expiratory time [Tex], inspiratory time [Tin], expiratory pause [Trst], total breath time [Ttot]), using a novel, wearable nanosensor-based device (SenseGuard™). RESULTS Patients who showed significant clinical improvement had substantial changes in ΔTex/Ttot (+14%), ΔTrst/Ttot (-18%), and ΔTin/Tex (+0.09), whereas patients who showed mild or no clinical improvement had smaller changes (+5%, +3%, and -0.03, respectively). Linear regression between change in physician's assessment score and the median change in tidal breathing parameters was significant for Tin/Tex (R2 = 0.449, ∗p = 0.017), Tex/Ttot (R2 = 0.556, ∗p = 0.005) and Trst/Ttot (R2 = 0.446, ∗p = 0.018), while no significant regression was observed for RR, Tin/(Trst + Tex) and Tin/Ttot. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates the potential of the SenseGuard™ to monitor treatment response in AECOPD patients by measuring changes in tidal breathing biomarkers, which were shown to be associated with significant changes in the patients' respiratory condition as evaluated by physicians. However, further large-scale clinical studies are needed to confirm these findings.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) deptics an acute form of lung infjury with often severe respiratory impairment that requires invasive mechanical ventilation. Since ARDS can be caused by several distinct etiologies, correct characterization is desired and frequently challenging. Surgical lung biopsy was previously reported to be of additive value. We describe our institutional experience using transbronchial cryobiopsy (TBCB) for further characterization of severe and unexplained ARDS cases. CASE PRESENTATION We retrospectively collected data of TBCB in patients with unexplained ARDS, whether with or without ECMO-support. Between 2019 and 2020 TBCB was performed in eight patients. Decision for the intervention was decided in multidisciplinary discussion. Five patients were treated with ECMO. The median duration of invasive ventilation before TBCB was 24 days. TBCB was performed in one segment, that was prophylactically occluded by Watanabe spigot or swab after the procedure. Histology results and their contribution to further therapeutic decisions were analyzed. Histology revealed five diffuses alveolar damage, one acute fibrinoid organizing pneumonia, one cryptogenic organizing pneumonia and one lung cancer. All results contributed to the decision of further management. While no pneumothorax or severe endobronchial bleeding occurred, two delayed hematothoraces needed surgical treatment. No patients died due to TBCB. CONCLUSION TBCB is feasible in ARDS even during ECMO treatment. Histologic results can play a significant role in therapeutic and ethic discussion to guide the patients' care. Side effects should be considered and monitored.

Abstract
Tumoral calcium pyrophosphate dihydrate deposition disease (TCPPD, tumoral or tophaceous pseudogout) is a rare nonneoplastic entity which mimics soft-tissue or skeletal malignancy. We present here the fine-needle aspiration cytology findings of a unique case of TCPPD in a 76-yr-old woman, with a large paraischial soft-tissue mass diagnosed as a malignant neoplasm. The difficulty in diagnosing such lesions by fine-needle aspirates is discussed and reviewed in the context of known cases from the literature.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase is inhibited selectively and K(+)-competitively from its luminal surface by protonated imidazo[1,2alpha]pyridines (e.g., SCH28080). Identification of the amino acids in the membrane domain that affect SCH28080 inhibition should provide a template for modeling a luminally directed vestibule in this enzyme, based on the crystal structure of the sr Ca-ATPase. Five conserved carboxylic residues, Glu343, Glu795, Glu820, Asp824, Glu936, and unique Lys791 in the H,K-ATPase were mutated, and the effects of mutations on the K(i) for SCH28080, V(max), and K(m,app)[NH(4)(+)] were measured. A kinetic analysis of the ATP hydrolysis data indicated that all of these residues significantly affect the interaction of NH(4)(+) ions with the protein but only three of them, Glu795, Glu936, and Lys791, greatly affected SCH28080 inhibition. A Glu795Asp mutation increased the K(i) from 64 +/- 11 to 700 +/- 110 nM. Since, however, the mutation Glu795Gln did not change the K(i) (86 +/- 31 nM), this site has a significant spatial effect on inhibitor kinetics. A Glu936Asp mutation resulted in noncompetitive kinetics while Gln substitution had no effect either on inhibitor affinity or on the nature of the kinetics, suggesting that the length of the Glu936 side chain is critical for the exclusive binding of the ion and SCH28080. Mutation of Lys791 to Ser, the residue present in the SCH28080-insensitive Na,K-ATPase, resulted in a 20-fold decrease in SCH28080 affinity, suggesting an important role of this residue in SCH28080 selectivity of the H,K-ATPase versus Na,K-ATPase. Mutations of Asp824, Glu343, and Glu820 increased the K(i) 2-3-fold, implying a relatively minor role for these residues in SCH28080 inhibition. It appears that the imidazopyridine moiety of SCH28080 in the protonated state interacts with residues near the negatively charged residues of the empty ion site from the luminal side (TM4, -5, -6, and -8) while the hydrophobic phenyl ring interacts with TM1 or TM2 (the latter conclusion based on previous data from photoaffinity labeling). The integrity of the SCH28080 binding site depends on the presence of Lys791, Glu936, and Glu795 in H,K-ATPase. A computer-generated model of this region illustrates the possible involvement of the residues previously shown to affect SCH28080 inhibition (Cys813, Ile816, Thr823, Met334, Val337) and may predict other residues that line the SCH28080 binding vestibule in the E(2) conformation of the pump.

Abstract
This review focuses on the gastric acid pump as a therapeutic target for the control of acid secretion in peptic ulcer and gastro-oesophageal reflux disease. The mechanism of the proton pump inhibitors is discussed as well as their clinical use. The biology of Helicobacter pylori as a gastric denizen is then discussed, with special regard to its mechanisms of acid resistance. Here the properties of the products of the urease gene clusters, ureA, B and ureI, E, F, G and H are explored in order to explain the unique location of this pathogen. The dominant requirement for acid resistance is the presence of a proton gated urea transporter, UreI, which increases access of gastric juice urea to the intrabacterial urease 300-fold. This enables rapid and continuous buffering of the bacterial periplasm to approximately pH 6.0, allowing acid resistance and growth at acidic pH in the presence of 1 mM urea. A hypothesis for the basis of combination therapy for eradication is also presented.

Abstract
The effects of site-directed mutagenesis were used to explore the role of residues in M4 on the apparent Ki of a selective, K+-competitive inhibitor of the gastric H+,K+ ATPase, SCH28080. A double transfection expression system is described, utilizing HEK293 cells and separate plasmids encoding the alpha and beta subunits of the H+,K+-ATPase. The wild-type enzyme gave specific activity (micromoles of Pi per hour per milligram of expressed H+,K+-ATPase protein), apparent Km for ammonium (a K+ surrogate), and apparent Ki for SCH28080 equal to the H+, K+-ATPase purified from hog gastric mucosa. Amino acids in the M4 transmembrane segment of the alpha subunit were selected from, and substituted with, the nonconserved residues in M4 of the Na+, K+-ATPase, which is insensitive to SCH28080. Most of the mutations produced competent enzyme with similar Km,app values for NH4+ and Ki,app for SCH28080. SCH28080 affinity was decreased 2-fold in M330V and 9-fold in both M334I and V337I without significant effect on Km,app. Hence methionine 334 and valine 337 participate in binding but are not part of the NH4+ site. Methionine 330 may be at the periphery of the inhibitor site, which must have minimum dimensions of approximately 16 x 8 x 5 A and be accessible from the lumen in the E2-P conformation. Multiple sequence alignments place the membrane surface near arginine 328, suggesting that the side chains of methionine 334 and valine 337, on one side of the M4 helix, project into a binding cavity within the membrane domain.

Abstract
The gastric H,K-ATPase is covalently inhibited by substituted pyridyl-methylsulfinyl-benzimidazoles, such as omeprazole, that convert to thiophilic probes of luminally accessible cysteines in the acid space. The K(+) competitive inhibitor, SCH28080, prevented inhibition of acid transport by omeprazole. In stably expressing HEK293 cells, the benzimidazole-reactive cysteines, Cys-321 (transmembrane helix (TM) 3), Cys-813 and Cys-822 (TM5/6), and Cys-892 (TM7/8) were mutated to the amino acids found in the SCH28080-resistant Na,K-ATPase and kinetic parameters of H,K-ATPase activity analyzed. Mutations of Cys-822 and Cys-892 had insignificant effects on the K(i(app)), K(m(app)) or V(max), but mutations of Cys-813 to threonine and Cys-321 to alanine decreased the affinity for SCH28080. Mutation of Cys-321 to alanine produced mixed kinetics of inhibition, still with higher affinity for the cation-free form of phosphoenzyme. Since the phenylmethoxy ring of the imidazo-pyridine inhibitors binds to TM1/2, as shown by earlier photoaffinity studies, and the mutations in TM6 (Cys-813 --> Thr) as well as the end of TM3 (Cys-321 --> Ala) decrease the affinity for SCH28080, the TM1/2, TM3, and TM6 helices lie within approximately 16 A of each other based on the size of the active, extended conformation of SCH28080.

Abstract
A structure of the catalytic or alpha subunit of the H(+)/K(+)-ATPase, with ten transmembrane segments, and of the beta subunit, with a single such segment, was established using a combination of tryptic cleavage and peptide sequencing and in vitro translation. Sites at which covalent ligands bind to external surfaces were also defined by cleavage, separation and sequencing. Cys813 was found to be the common covalent binding site for all the substituted pyridyl methylsulfinyl benzimidazoles. The binding region of a K(+)-competitive reagent, the 1,2 α -imidazo-pyridine SCH 28080, was defined by the kinetic effects of site-specific mutations. Amino acids substitutions in membrane-spanning segments M1, M3, M4 and M6 were found to influence the apparent inhibitor constant, K(i), to varying degrees, some having a large effect, some a moderate effect and some a slight effect, whereas some mutations had no effect. We interpret changes in K(i) without effects on the apparent Michaelis constant, K(m), as affecting SCH 28080 binding only. Mutation of Cys813 significantly affected the K(i) for SCH 28080, explaining the prevention of benzimidazole inhibition by the imidazo-pyridine.A model of the α subunit was constructed with a vestibule on the luminal surface of the pump bounded by M1-M6 and containing the SCH 28080 binding region. The cation binding site is suggested to be more towards the cytoplasmic face of the enzyme's membrane domain. This model predicts the membrane peptide associations for the catalytic subunit. Biochemical and yeast two-hybrid methods place the beta subunit in association with M8, whereas similar methods place M5/6 in proximity to M9/10. These results, when combined with analysis of the two-dimensional crystals of the sarcoplasmic reticular Ca(2+) and Neurospora crassa H(+)-ATPases, provide the basis for a tentative model of the arrangement of the six core segments of the gastric H(+)/K(+)-ATPase.

Abstract
This review summarizes some of the structural information that has been obtained on the gastric H,K ATPase. Methods such as tryptic digestion, site specific labeling and in vitro translation combine to provide a ten membrane segment model with however reservations as to the full transmembrane nature of M5 or M6. Labeling this region with the thiophilic luminal face reagent omeprazole provided cogent evidence that cys 813 but not cys 822 was labeled. On the other hand, cysteine mutagenesis provided evidence that removal of cys 813 did not affect inhibition of Rb transport by omeprazole whereas removal of cys 822 although not affecting ATPase activity abolished omeprazole inhibition of transport. A model to reconcile these data is presented where M5 and M6 although intramembranal are not transmembrane hairpin structures. Analysis of the region of alpha beta interaction by tryptic digestion and WGA chromatography to define those fragments of alpha that remain beta associated shows that leu 853 to arg 922 in the TM7-loop are a major region of association with the beta subunit. Yeast two hybrid analysis, when combined with these data and those from a chimeric construct, indicates that the sequence Q 907 to R 922 is the important element of interaction in the alpha subunit and no other extracytoplasmic domain was found to interact. Two regions of the beta subunit interact with this region of the alpha subunit between Q64 and N130 as well as A156 and R188. Apparently the beta subunit is folded around a small region of the large extracytoplasmic loop between TM7 and TM8, closer to TM8.

Abstract
The alpha subunit of eukaryotic P-type ATPases has ten experimentally defined transmembrane or membrane inserted segments. The fifth and sixth of these are short, not predicted by hydropathy analysis, do not insert independently into microsomal membranes, and are readily removed after tryptic digestion and therefore may be membrane inserted sequences. Acid transport by the gastric H, K-ATPase is covalently inhibited by several substituted pyridyl methylsulfinyl benzimidazoles, such as omeprazole. These act as probes of accessible extracytoplasmic thiols because they are accumulated in the acid transporting gastric vesicles and then convert to thiol reactive, cationic tetracyclic sulfenamides. Inhibition is due mainly to disulfide formation with Cys813 or Cys822 in M5/6 and perhaps with a contribution from Cys892 in the loop between transmembrane segment (TM) 7 and TM8. Identification of the specific cysteine responsible for inhibition should be able to define the turn between M5 and M6. The gastric H,K-ATPase alpha-beta heterodimer was expressed as a fusion protein in HEK 293 cells. Transient transfection resulted in most of the protein being retained in the endoplasmic reticulum with only core glycosylation and minor activity of the ATPase evident. Stable transfection resulted in plasma membrane localization of the protein and complex glycosylation. The transfected but not the control cells displayed cation-stimulated, SCH 28080-inhibited ATPase activity and SCH 28080- and omeprazole-inhibited 86Rb uptake. The two cysteines in M5/6 and Cys892 in the TM7/8 loop were mutated to the amino acids found in the Na,K-ATPase in order to determine which of the three cysteine residues were important for benzimidazole inhibition. Mutation of one, two, or all three cysteines did not alter enzyme activity, 86Rb transport, or SCH 28080 inhibition. Only removal of Cys822 blocked omeprazole inhibition of 86Rb transport. These data suggest that Cys822 is present in a region of the enzyme most easily accessed by the cationic sulfenamide formed by omeprazole, presumably the turn between M5 and M6.

Abstract
1. The effects of the non-selective cyclo-oxygenase (COX) inhibitor indomethacin and the selective COX-2 inhibitors, N-[2-(cyclohexyloxy)-4-nitrophenyl] methanesulphonamide (NS-398), 5-methanesulphonamido-6-(2,4-difluorothio-phenyl)-1-indan one (L-745,337) and 5,5-dimethyl-3-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-(4-methylsulphonyl) phenyl-2(5H)-furanone (DFU), on the protection induced by the mild irritant 20% ethanol were investigated in the rat stomach. 2. Instillation of 20% ethanol (1 ml, p.o.) effectively protected against gastric mucosal injury induced by subsequent instillation of 70% or 96% ethanol (1 ml, p.o.). 3. Oral administration of indomethacin (1.25-20 mg kg[-1]) dose-dependently counteracted the protective effect of 20% ethanol (ID50: 3.5 mg kg[-1]). 4. Likewise, NS-398 (0.1-1 mg kg[-1]), L-745,337 (0.2-2 mg kg[-1]) and DFU (0.02-0.2 mg kg[-1]) inhibited the protective effect of 20% ethanol in a dose-dependent manner with ID50 values of 0.3 mg kg(-1), 0.4 mg kg(-1) and 0.06 mg kg(-1), respectively. 5. Inhibition of mild irritant-induced protection was also found when NS-398 (1 mg kg[-1]) was administered s.c. or when 96% ethanol was used to damage the mucosa. 6. Pretreatment with 16,16-dimethyl-prostaglandin (PG)E2 at 4 ng kg(-1), a dose that did not protect against ethanol (70%)-induced mucosal damage when given alone, completely reversed the effect of the selective COX-2 inhibitors on the mild irritant-induced protection. 7. Pretreatment with dexamethasone (3 mg kg(-1), 24 and 2 h before instillation of 20% ethanol) did not affect the protective activity of the mild irritant, indicating that enzyme induction is not involved. 8. Indomethacin (20 mg kg(-1), p.o.) did not prevent the protection conferred by sodium salicylate (100 mg kg[-1]), dimercaprol (30 microg kg[-1]), iodoacetamide (50 mg kg[-1]) and lithium (20 mg kg[-1]). Likewise, the protective effect of these agents was not counteracted by NS-398 (1 mg kg(-1), p.o.). 9. Whereas indomethacin (20 mg kg(-1), p.o.) near-maximally inhibited gastric mucosal formation of PGE2, 6-keto-PGF1alpha and thromboxane (TX) B2 as well as platelet TXB2 release, the selective COX-2 inhibitors were ineffective. 10. The findings show that selective COX-2 inhibitors, although lacking in ulcerogenic activity, prevent the protection conferred by a mild irritant. Prostaglandis generated by a constitutive COX-2 could thus contribute to physiological functions involved in gastric homeostasis, although at present a non-COX-2-related mechanism underlying the effect of the selective COX-2 inhibitors tested on mild irritant-induced protection cannot be completely excluded.

Abstract
Healing of ethanol-injured gastric mucosa was studied in rats treated with a neurotoxic dose of capsaicin to induce functional ablation of sensory nerves. Capsaicin treatment delayed the healing of mucosal damage in the glandular region and promoted the development of deep ulcerations predominantly in the antrum. These lesions occupied 86% of the antral surface and were associated with marked invasion of inflammatory cells and 18-fold elevation of gastric myeloperoxidase activity compared with vehicle-pretreated rats. Inhibition of cyclooxygenase, 5-lipoxygenase, or nitric oxide synthase did not affect the development of antral lesions after ethanol challenge in capsaicin-pretreated rats. In vehicle-pretreated rats, inhibition of nitric oxide synthase did not mimic the effect of functional ablation of sensory neurons. The findings suggest that in the gastric mucosa sensory neurons contribute to repair processes and limit the inflammatory response to injury. These effects do not involve arachidonic acid metabolites or nitric oxide.

Abstract
Cholecystokinin-8 and pentagastrin protect against ethanol-induced gastric mucosal lesions in rats. The protective effect is antagonized by the nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor, NG-nitro-L-arginine. The inhibitory action of NG-nitro-L-arginine is reversed by L-arginine, but not D-arginine. The findings suggest that NO is involved in the gastroprotection induced by both peptides.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Capsaicin-sensitive neurons contain various peptides including calcitonin gene-related peptide. This study examines (1) whether calcitonin gene-related peptide is involved in capsaicin-induced gastroprotection and (2) whether nitric oxide and prostaglandin are required for calcitonin gene-related peptide to prevent mucosal injury. METHODS Gastroprotection by capsaicin or calcitonin gene-related peptide against ethanol-induced gross and histological damage was studied after pretreatment with the calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor antagonist, human calcitonin gene-related peptide8-37, anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide antibodies, and NG-nitro-L-arginine. RESULTS Protection by capsaicin was dose-dependently (50% inhibitory dose, 305 pmol.kg-1.min-1) antagonized by human calcitonin gene-related peptide8-37 and significantly attenuated by anti-calcitonin gene-related peptide antibodies. NG-nitro-L-arginine dose-dependently inhibited the protective effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide (50% inhibitory dose, 0.9 mg/kg), 3 mg/kg completely blocking protection. L-Arginine reversed the effects of NG-nitro-L-arginine. Protection by calcitonin gene-related peptide was neither associated with increased prostaglandin formation nor inhibited by indomethacin. CONCLUSIONS The results suggest that calcitonin gene-related peptide is an essential mediator of the protection elicited by stimulation of capsaicin-sensitive neurons and that the protective effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide is lost after blockade of the nitric oxide system but not the prostaglandin system.

Abstract
The mechanism underlying the mucosal protective effect of antacids is still unclear. This study shows that in rats the aluminum containing antacid, hydrotalcit, induces dose dependent protection against gastric mucosal damage caused by ethanol or indomethacin which is considerably enhanced by acidification. Hydrotalcit did not increase gastric mucosal formation or the intraluminal release of prostaglandins, and did not prevent the increase in mucosal leukotriene C4 formation in response to ethanol. Pretreatment with indomethacin did not attenuate the protective effect of unmodified or acidified hydrotalcit. Furthermore, hydrotalcit significantly reduced the gastric damage caused by indomethacin even when it was administered up to 2 hours after the ulcerogen. In indomethacin treated rats, simultaneous administration of hydrotalcit did not affect the concentrations of indomethacin in serum or inflammatory exudates nor did it attenuate the inhibition of prostaglandin release into the exudates. In hydrotalcit treated rats there was no attenuation of the increase in sulphidopeptide leukotriene release or decrease in leukocyte influx into inflammatory exudates elicited by indomethacin administration. Functional ablation of afferent neurons and inhibition of endogenous nitric oxide partially antagonised the protective effect of unmodified, but not of acidified, hydrotalcit. It is concluded that (i) the protective effect of unmodified and acidified hydrotalcit is independent of the eicosanoid system; (ii) protection against indomethacin induced gastric lesions does not require treatment before dosing of the ulcerogen and does not interfere with absorption and anti-inflammatory actions of indomethacin; (iii) endogenous nitric oxide and afferent neurons contribute partly to the effect of unmodified, but not of acidified, hydrotalcit suggesting that different mechanisms mediate their mucosal protective activity.

Abstract
Infusion of endothelin-1 reduced vascular flow in the isolated perfused rat stomach. Concurrent infusion of iloprost and capsaicin, respectively, did not counteract the flow-reduction caused by endothelin-1. Infusion of prostaglandin (PG)F2 alpha caused vasoconstriction and significantly augmented the endothelin-1-induced flow reduction. In vivo, i.v. infusion of endothelin-1 (50 pmol/kg//min for 10 min) did not cause gastric mucosal damage, but enhanced injury produced by intragastric instillation of 20% ethanol. Intragastric administration of iloprost or PGF2 alpha prevented the pro-ulcerogenic effect of endothelin-1. Similarly, stimulation of afferent sensory neurons by intragastric capsaicin (0.5 mg/kg) protected against damage caused by endothelin-1 and 20% ethanol. Functional ablation of afferent sensory neurons by s.c. administration of 125 mg/kg capsaicin markedly enhanced gastric mucosal damage by intraluminal 20% ethanol. This damage was, however, not further increased by infusion of endothelin-1. These findings show that protection against the proulcerogenic effect of endothelin-1 can occur without antagonism of vasoconstriction. The findings also show that parameters involved in protection such as afferent sensory neurons do not contribute to the pro-ulcerogenic effects of endothelin-1 suggesting that protection against and potentiation of damage rely on different mechanisms.
