Transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) is a profibrogenic cytokine that is involved in airway remodeling largely associated with chronic asthma. Accordingly, regulators of TGF-β activity could also play some role in airway remodeling in asthma. In this study, we investigated expression of Smad 7, a major intracellular inhibitor of TGF-β signaling, in the airways of mouse models of acute and chronic asthma. Sensitized, repeatedly (14 days) ovalbumin (OVA)-inhaled BALB/c mice exhibited evidence of airway remodeling including prominent subepithelial fibrosis associated with airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) and airway inflammation (chronic asthma model) whereas sensitized, shortly OVA-inhaled BALB/c mice showed only AHR and airway inflammation (acute asthma model). Immunohistochemical analysis showed that Smad 7 immunoreactivity in the airways was increased after the development of acute and chronic asthma models and mainly detected in bronchial epithelial cells. Interestingly, Smad 7 immunoreactivity was significantly less in the airways of chronic asthma model than in those of acute asthma model, which was also confirmed by real-time PCR analysis of Smad 7. In consistent with decreased Smad 7 expression in the airways of chronic asthma model, phosphorylation of Smad 2, a marker of active TGF-β signaling, was increased in bronchial epithelial cells of chronic asthma model when compared with acute asthma model. These results suggest that decreased Smad 7 expression and Smad 2 upregulation in bronchial epithelial cells might result in increased TGF-β activity and contribute to the development of airway remodeling seen in chronic asthma. |
