Macrophages Survive Hyperoxia via Prolonged ERK Activation Due to Phosphatase Down-regulation

Abstract: Macrophages exposed to hyperoxia in the lung continue to survive for prolonged periods. We previously reported (Nyunoya, T., Powers, L. S., Yarovinsky, T. O., Butler, N. S., Monick, M. M., and Hunninghake, G. W. (2003) J. Biol. Chem. 278, 36099 -36106) that hyperoxia induces cell cycle arrest and sustained extracellular signal-related kinase (ERK) activity in macrophages. In this study, we determined the mechanisms of hyperoxiainduced ERK activation and how ERK activity plays a pro-survival role in hyperoxia-e… Show more

“…For example, ERK has been reported to be an important macrophage survival factor in some (35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40) but not all (30,41,42) studies, and we detected decreased ERK phosphorylation in response to LPS or thapsigargin in BMDMs from both WT and BCAP-deficient mice, as well as a trend for enhanced ERK phosphorylation in unchallenged BMDMs from BCAP-deficient mice (Fig. 4).…”

“…First, exposure to hyperoxia induces an altered expression of many of Bcl-2 family members, including both proapoptotic (Bax, Bad, Bak) and antiapoptotic (Bcl-k L, Bclw, Bfl-1 and Bcl-2). These alterations may ultimately lead to an imbalance between pro-and anti-apoptotic Bcl-2 family proteins resulting in cell death [58,59]. In cultured macrophages, hyperoxia can suppress the pro-apoptotic BH3-only protein BimEL in an ERK-dependent manner [59].…”

In cultured macrophages, hyperoxia can suppress the pro-apoptotic BH3-only protein BimEL in an ERK-dependent manner [59]. In addition, over-expression of IL-6 and IL-11 can protect lung cells against hyperoxic cell death in both cell culture and animal models [60,61].…”

“…The role of hyperoxia as a potential cause of lung cell injury has been extensively characterized in alveolar epithelial [12][13][14][15][16][17] and endothelial cells [18,19]. However, only a few studies have examined it's impact on alveolar macrophages [20][21][22][23]. Alveolar macrophages provide the first line of defense against inhaled bacterial pathogens [24] and are exposed to 13% oxygen under normal physiological conditions [22].…”

Under conditions of supplemental oxygen therapy, alveolar macrophages, can be exposed to ≥ 95% oxygen.…”
