Mucus hypersecretion is a prominent manifestation in patients with chronic inflammatory airway diseases. MUC5AC mucin is a major component of airway mucus, and its expression is modulated by a TNF-α-converting enzyme (TACE)–EGF receptor pathway th

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is one of the leading causes of death in the U.S. Because cigarette smoking is so importantly implicated in the pathogenesis of COPD and because mucus hypersecretion plays such an important role in COPD, u

Ectodomain shedding of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) ligands [e.g., transforming growth factor type α (TGF-α)] and EGFR phosphorylation are implicated in mucin production in airway epithelial cells. Tumor necrosis factor α-converting enz

Bacterial products (e.g., LPS) are viewed as critical stimuli in inflammation-associated cancer. Cyclooxygenase 2 (COX-2), a major effector of LPS, and EGFR, are key to carcinogenesis, notably in the hepatobiliary tract. In this study, we tested the

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) are critical for the recognition of inhaled pathogens that deposit on the airway epithelial surface. The epithelial response to pathogens includes signaling cascades that activate the EGF receptor (EGFR). We hypothesized th

Airways function as an innate immune organ against airborne bacteria that are inhaled and deposited in airways. One of the mechanisms of host defense is to recruit neutrophils into airways to clear the invaders. Airway epithelial cells produce neutro

The surface of the airway epithelium represents a battleground in which the host intercepts signals from pathogens and activates epithelial defenses to combat infection. Wound repair is an essential function of the airway epithelium in response to in

Mucus hypersecretion is a prominent manifestation in patients with chronic inflammatory airway diseases and contributes to their morbidity and mortality by plugging airways and causing recurrent infections. Human neutrophil elastase (HNE) exists in h
