Control of lung vascular permeability and endotoxin-induced pulmonary oedema by changes in extracellular matrix mechanics

Abstract: Increased vascular permeability contributes to many diseases, including acute respiratory distress syndrome, cancer and inflammation. Most past work on vascular barrier function has focused on soluble regulators, such as tumour-necrosis factor-a. Here we show that lung vascular permeability is controlled mechanically by changes in extracellular matrix structure. Our studies reveal that pulmonary vascular leakage can be increased by altering extracellular matrix compliance in vitro and by manipulating lysyl oxi… Show more

“…42,43 Administration of LOX and LOXL1-4 inhibitor β-aminopropionitrile [44][45][46] to mice downregulates LOX enzymatic activity and consequently leads to a decrease in lung stiffness. 41 Our previous report demonstrated that periostin regulates LOX enzymatic activity, especially LOX and LOXL1, via BMP-1 activation. 30 While LOXL4 is dominantly expressed in the intact lung, LOX and LOXL1 are also weakly observed.…”

“…41 The LOX superfamily consists of LOX and LOX-like 1 to 4 (LOXL1-4), and all LOXs are capable of initiating collagen cross-linking. 42,43 Administration of LOX and LOXL1-4 inhibitor β-aminopropionitrile [44][45][46] to mice downregulates LOX enzymatic activity and consequently leads to a decrease in lung stiffness.…”

“…Monolayer junction formation was analyzed using a confocal Leica SP2 microscope (Leica, Buffalo Grove, IL) (15,20). Endothelial cell permeability was determined by measuring leakage of FITC-labeled BSA (Sigma) through the monolayer of L-HMVE cells, as described previously (13,15).…”
