In recent years, metabolomics, the systematic study of small-molecule metabolites in biological samples, has yielded fresh insights into the molecular determinants of pulmonary diseases and critical illness. The purpose of this article is to orient the reader to this emerging field by discussing the fundamental tenets underlying metabolomics research, the tools and techniques that serve as foundational methodologies, and the various statistical approaches to analysis of metabolomics datasets. We present several examples of metabolomics applied to pulmonary and critical care medicine to illustrate the potential of this avenue of research to deepen our understanding of pathophysiology. We conclude by reviewing recent advances in the field and future research directions that stand to further the goal of personalizing medicine to improve patient care.

Mechanical ventilation contributes to the morbidity and mortality of patients in intensive care, likely through the exacerbation and dissemination of inflammation. Despite the proximity of the pleural cavity to the lungs and exposure to physical forces, little attention has been paid to its potential as an inflammatory source during ventilation. Here, we investigate the pleural cavity as a novel site of inflammation during ventilator-induced lung injury. Mice were subjected to low or high tidal volume ventilation strategies for up to 3 hours. Ventilation with a high tidal volume significantly increased cytokine and total protein levels in BAL and pleural lavage fluid. In contrast, acid aspiration, explored as an alternative model of injury, only promoted intraalveolar inflammation, with no effect on the pleural space. Resident pleural macrophages demonstrated enhanced activation after injurious ventilation, including upregulated ICAM-1 and IL-1β expression, and the release of extracellular vesicles. In vivo ventilation and in vitro stretch of pleural mesothelial cells promoted ATP secretion, whereas purinergic receptor inhibition substantially attenuated extracellular vesicles and cytokine levels in the pleural space. Finally, labeled protein rapidly translocated from the pleural cavity into the circulation during high tidal volume ventilation, to a significantly greater extent than that of protein translocation from the alveolar space. Overall, we conclude that injurious ventilation induces pleural cavity inflammation mediated through purinergic pathway signaling and likely enhances the dissemination of mediators into the vasculature. This previously unidentified consequence of mechanical ventilation potentially implicates the pleural space as a focus of research and novel avenue for intervention in critical care.
机械通气很可能通过炎症的加剧和传播导致重症监护患者的发病率和死亡率。尽管胸膜腔靠近肺部并暴露于物理力量之下,但很少有人关注胸膜腔在通气过程中作为炎症源的潜力。在此,我们研究了胸膜腔作为通气诱导的肺损伤过程中一个新的炎症部位。对小鼠进行长达 3 小时的低潮气量或高潮气量通气。高潮气量通气明显增加了支气管肺泡和胸腔灌洗液中的细胞因子和总蛋白水平。相比之下,酸吸入作为一种替代损伤模型,只促进了肺泡内炎症,对胸膜腔没有影响。损伤性通气后,胸膜巨噬细胞的活化能力增强,包括 ICAM-1 和白细胞介素-1β 的表达上调以及细胞外囊泡的释放。胸膜间皮细胞的体内通气和体外拉伸促进了 ATP 的分泌,而嘌呤能受体抑制则大大降低了胸膜腔内细胞外囊泡和细胞因子的水平。最后,在高潮气量通气过程中,标记蛋白质迅速从胸膜腔转移到血液循环中,其程度明显高于从肺泡空间转移的蛋白质。总之,我们得出结论:损伤性通气通过嘌呤能通路信号传导诱导胸膜腔炎症,并可能加强介质向血管的传播。机械通气造成的这一之前未被发现的后果可能会使胸膜腔成为重症监护的研究重点和新的干预途径。

The relationship between the Programmed Death-Ligand 1 (PD-L1)/Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) pathway, lung inflammation, and clinical outcomes in acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) is poorly understood. We sought to determine whether PD-L1/PD-1 in the lung or blood is associated with ARDS and associated severity. We measured soluble PD-L1 (sPD-L1) in plasma and lower respiratory tract samples (ARDS1 (n = 59) and ARDS2 (n = 78)) or plasma samples alone (ARDS3 (n = 149)) collected from subjects with ARDS and tested for associations with mortality using multiple regression. We used mass cytometry to measure PD-L1/PD-1 expression and intracellular cytokine staining in cells isolated from bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) (n = 18) and blood (n = 16) from critically-ill subjects with or without ARDS enrolled from a fourth cohort. Higher plasma levels of sPD-L1 were associated with mortality in ARDS1, ARDS2, and ARDS3. In contrast, higher levels of sPD-L1 in the lung were either not associated with mortality (ARDS2) or were associated with survival (ARDS1). Alveolar PD-1POS T cells had more intracellular cytokine staining compared with PD-1NEG T cells. Subjects without ARDS had a higher ratio of PD-L1POS alveolar macrophages to PD-1POS T cells compared with subjects with ARDS. We conclude that sPD-L1 may have divergent cellular sources and/or functions in the alveolar vs. blood compartments given distinct associations with mortality. Alveolar leukocyte subsets defined by PD-L1/PD-1 cell-surface expression have distinct cytokine secretion profiles, and the relative proportions of these subsets are associated with ARDS.

Epithelial polarity is fundamental in maintaining barrier integrity and tissue protection. In cystic fibrosis (CF), apicobasal polarity of the airway epithelium is altered, resulting in increased apical fibronectin deposition and enhanced susceptibility to bacterial infections. Here, we evaluated the effect of highly effective modulator treatment (HEMT) on fibronectin apical deposition and investigated the intracellular mechanisms triggering the defect in polarity of the CF airway epithelium. To this end, primary cultures of CF (F508del variant) human airway epithelial cells (HAECs) and a HAEC line, Calu-3, knocked down for CFTR (CF transmembrane conductance regulator) were compared with control counterparts. We show that CFTR mutation in primary HAECs and CFTR knockdown cells promote the overexpression and oversecretion of TGF-β1 and DKK1 when cultured at an air-liquid interface. These dynamic changes result in hyperactivation of the TGF-β pathway and inhibition of the Wnt pathway through degradation of β-catenin leading to imbalanced proliferation and polarization. The abnormal interplay between TGF-β and Wnt signaling pathways is reinforced by aberrant Akt signaling. Pharmacological manipulation of TGF-β, Wnt, and Akt pathways restored polarization of the F508del CF epithelium, a correction that was not achieved by HEMT. Our data shed new insights into the signaling pathways that fine-tune apicobasal polarization in primary airway epithelial cells and may provide an explanation to the mitigated efficacy of HEMT on lung infection in people with CF.

Pulmonary arterial (PA) hypertension (PAH) is a severe cardiopulmonary disease that may be triggered by exposure to drugs such as dasatinib or facilitated by genetic predispositions. The incidence of dasatinib-associated PAH is estimated at 0.45%, suggesting individual predispositions. The mechanisms of dasatinib-associated PAH are still incomplete. We discovered a KCNK3 gene (Potassium channel subfamily K member 3; coding for outward K+ channel) variant in a patient with dasatinib-associated PAH and investigated the impact of this variant on KCNK3 function. Additionally, we assessed the effects of dasatinib exposure on KCNK3 expression. In control human PA smooth muscle cells (hPASMCs) and human pulmonary endothelial cells (hPECs), we evaluated the consequences of KCNK3 knockdown on cell migration, mitochondrial membrane potential, ATP production, and in vitro tube formation. Using mass spectrometry, we determined the KCNK3 interactome. Patch-clamp experiments revealed that the KCNK3 variant represents a loss-of-function variant. Dasatinib contributed to PA constriction by decreasing KCNK3 function and expression. In control hPASMCs, KCNK3 knockdown promotes mitochondrial membrane depolarization and glycolytic shift. Dasatinib exposure or KCNK3 knockdown reduced the number of caveolae in hPECs. Moreover, KCNK3 knockdown in control hPECs reduced migration, proliferation, and in vitro tubulogenesis. Using proximity labeling and mass spectrometry, we identified the KCNK3 interactome, revealing that KCNK3 interacts with various proteins across different cellular compartments. We identified a novel pathogenic variant in KCNK3 and showed that dasatinib downregulates KCNK3, emphasizing the relationship between dasatinib-associated PAH and KCNK3 dysfunction. We demonstrated that a loss of KCNK3-dependent signaling contributes to endothelial dysfunction in PAH and glycolytic switch of hPASMCs.
