Abstract

$CLB_{2.0}$, a constituent of PM, induces secretion of multiple cytokines and chemokines that regulate airway inflammation. Specifically, IL-6 upregulates $CLB_{2.0}$-induced MUC5AC and MUC1 expression. Interestingly, of the tight junction proteins examined, claudin-1 expression was inhibited by $CLB_{2.0}$. While the overexpression of claudin-1 decreased $CLB_{2.0}$-induced MUC5AC expression, it increased the expression of the anti-inflammatory mucin, MUC1. $CLB_{2.0}$-induced IL-6 secretion was mediated by ROS. The ROS scavenger N-acetyl-cysteine inhibited $CLB_{2.0}$-induced IL-6 secretion, thereby decreasing the $CLB_{2.0}$-induced MUC5AC expression, whereas $CLB_{2.0}$-induced MUC1 expression increased. $CLB_{2.0}$ activated the ERK1/2 MAPK via a ROS-dependent pathway. ERK1/2 downregulated the claudin-1 and MUC1 expressions, whereas it dramatically increased $CLB_{2.0}$-induced MUC5AC expression. These findings suggest that $CLB_{2.0}$-induced ERK1/2 activation acts as a switch for regulating inflammatory conditions though a ROS-dependent pathway. Our data also suggest that secreted IL-6 regulates $CLB_{2.0}$-induced MUC5AC and MUC1 expression via ROS-mediated downregulation of claudin-1 expression to maintain mucus homeostasis in the airway.
