Ciliary Activity in Differentiating and Reactivated Human Respiratory Epithelial Cells

Abstract: The authors have demonstrated that ciliary beat frequency of demembranated human respiratory epithelial cells can be modulated by MgATP and can be adjusted to the same level of activity as measured in living cells. This allows them to selectively test whether a drug's effects on mucociliary transport are the result of direct interactions with the ciliary apparatus or are produced through other indirect mechanisms.

“…Moreover, CBF has been utilized as an index of ciliary activity to evaluate the ciliotoxicity of nasal formulations. [4][5][6][7] Some in vitro evaluation systems on CBF, utilizing a video, photoelectric detection, or high-speed digital imaging system, have been reported, 2) where various types of cells, such as primary-cultured epithelial cells [8][9][10] and single ciliary cells, 11) were used for the evaluation of CBF. However, the relationship between MC and CBF is still quantitatively ambiguous 12) and there has been no study on the CBF of the rat nasal epithelium and its relationship with MC.…”

“…2,4,11,26 Results of several of these studies have indicated that the intracellular signaling pathway of this reaction involves adenylate cyclase/cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP)/protein kinase A, guanylate cyclase/cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP)/protein kinase G, nitric oxide synthase/nitric oxide, and calmodulin. 2,4,11,26,27 The mechanism of the ciliary beat has also been investigated in cultured human airway epithelial cells, 14,[28][29][30][31][32][33] and some difference in the signaling pathway was reported between human and animals. 14 Although the use of cultured cells is generally a powerful method for research on cellular biology, it is often doubtful whether cells in culture behave in the same way as those in the tissue.…”

“…Various cell culture systems of NECs have been proposed and extensively studied on the ciliogenesis, ciliary movement, mucus secretion, nasal mucosal infection, and the underlying cellular and molecular mechanisms 9, 10. To date, several key factors for promoting mucociliary differentiation of NECs have been suggested, such as air‐liquid biphasic culture technique, collagen substrate, and growth‐regulation factors, e.g., retinoic acid 11, 12.…”
