Abstract
The Toll-like receptor (TLR) adaptor protein MyD88 is integral to airway inflammatory response to microbial-enriched organic dust extract (ODE) exposures. ODE-induced airway neutrophil influx and release of pro-inflammatory cytokines was essentially abrogated in global MyD88-deficient mice, yet these mice demonstrate an increase in airway epithelial cell mucin expression. To further elucidate the role of MyD88-dependent responses specific to lung airway epithelial cells in response to ODE in vivo, the surfactant protein C protein (SPC) Cre+ embryologic expressing airway epithelial cells floxed for MyD88 to disrupt MyD88 signaling were utilized. The inducible club cell secretory protein (CCSP) Cre+, MyD88 floxed, were also developed. Using an established protocol, mice were intranasally instilled with ODE or saline once or daily up to 3 weeks. Mice with MyD88-deficient SPC+ lung epithelial cells exhibited decreased neutrophil influx following ODE exposure once and repetitively for 1 week without modulation of classic pro-inflammatory mediators including tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α, interleukin (IL)-6, and neutrophil chemoattractants. This protective response was lost after 3 weeks of repetitive exposure. ODE-induced Muc5ac mucin expression at 1 week was also reduced in MyD88-deficient SPC+ cells. Acute ODE-induced IL-33 was reduced in MyD88-deficient SPC+ cells whereas serum IgE levels were increased at one week. In contrast, mice with inducible MyD88-deficient CCSP+ airway epithelial cells demonstrated no significant difference in experimental indices following ODE exposure. Collectively, these findings suggest that MyD88-dependent signaling targeted to all airway epithelial cells plays an important role in mediating neutrophil influx and mucin production in response to acute organic dust exposures.

Abstract
Asthma is a long term inflammatory disease of the airway of lungs characterized by variable airflow obstruction and bronchospasm. Asthma is caused by a complex combination of environmental and genetic interactions. In this study, we conducted proteomic analysis of samples derived from control and OVA challenged mice for environmental respiratory disease by using 2-D gel electrophoresis. In addition, we explored the genes associated with the environmental substances that cause respiratory disease and conducted RNA-seq by next-generation sequencing. Proteomic analysis revealed 7 up-regulated (keratin KB40, CRP, HSP27, chaperonin containing TCP-1, TCP-10, keratin, and albumin) and 3 down-regulated proteins (PLC-α, PLA2, and precursor ApoA-1). The expression diversity of many genes was found in the lung tissue of OVA challenged moue by RNA-seq. 146 genes were identified as significantly differentially expressed by OVA treatment, and 118 genes of the 146 differentially expressed genes were up-regulated and 28 genes were downregulated. These genes were related to inflammation, mucin production, and airway remodeling. The results presented herein enable diagnosis and the identification of quantitative markers to monitor the progression of environmental respiratory disease using proteomics and genomic approaches.
