Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is characterized by abnormal fibroblast accumulation in the lung leading to extracellular matrix deposition and remodeling that compromise lung function. However, the mechanisms of interstitial invasion and remodeling by lung fibroblasts remain poorly understood. The invadosomes, initially described in cancer cells, consist of actin-based adhesive structures that coordinate with numerous other proteins to form a membrane protrusion capable of degrading the extracellular matrix to promote their invasive phenotype. In this regard, we hypothesized that invadosome formation may be increased in lung fibroblasts from patients with IPF. Public RNAseq datasets from control and IPF lung tissues were used to identify differentially expressed genes associated with invadosomes. Lung fibroblasts isolated from bleomycin-exposed mice and IPF patients were seeded with and without the two approved drugs for treating IPF, nintedanib or pirfenidone on fluorescent gelatin-coated coverslips for invadosome assays. Several matrix and invadosome-associated genes were increased in IPF tissues and in IPF fibroblastic foci. Invadosome formation was significantly increased in lung fibroblasts isolated from bleomycin-exposed mice and IPF patients. The degree of lung fibrosis found in IPF tissues correlated strongly with invadosome production by neighboring cells. Nintedanib suppressed IPF and PDGF-activated lung fibroblast invadosome formation, an event associated with inhibition of the PDGFR/PI3K/Akt pathway and TKS5 expression. Fibroblasts derived from IPF lung tissues express a pro-invadosomal phenotype, which correlates with the severity of fibrosis and is responsive to antifibrotic treatment. |
