聚-L-精氨酸通过激活 mTORC1-STAT3 通路诱导气道上皮细胞中的 FGFBP1 促进哮喘血管生成

   摘要
   血管生成是哮喘气道重塑的关键特征。活化的嗜酸性粒细胞通过释放阳离子颗粒蛋白,如主要碱性蛋白(MBP),在哮喘中发挥重要作用,但其潜在机制尚不完全清楚。在这项研究中,我们证明成纤维细胞生长因子结合蛋白1(FGFBP1)在由聚-L-精氨酸(PLA)(MBP的模拟物)处理的气道上皮细胞系中显着上调。在哮喘临床样品以及卵清蛋白(OVA)诱导的慢性哮喘小鼠模型中也检测到升高的FGFBP1表达。PLA通过激活雷帕霉素复合物1-信号转导和转录激活因子3(mTORC1-STAT3)信号通路的机制靶标来增强FGFBP1表达。STAT3通过直接结合FGFBP1基因的启动子反式激活FGFBP1。此外,我们发现PLA处理的气道上皮细胞分泌的FGFBP1为促血管生成因子。最后,我们发现mTORC1-STAT3-FGFBP1信号通路在具有气道重塑特征的OVA诱导的慢性哮喘模型中被激活。雷帕霉素治疗缓解了哮喘小鼠的呼吸道症状并减少了血管生成。因此,气道上皮中mTORC1-STAT3-FGFBP1途径的激活有助于血管生成的进展,并且应该靶向用于治疗哮喘。

Abstract
Angiogenesis is a key characteristic of asthma airway remodeling. By releasing cationic granule proteins, such as major basic protein (MBP), activated eosinophils play a prominent role in asthma, but the underlying mechanisms are still not fully understood. In this study, we demonstrated that fibroblast growth factor-binding protein 1 (FGFBP1) was dramatically upregulated in airway epithelial cell lines treated by poly-L-arginine (PLA), a mimic of MBP. Elevated FGFBP1 expression was also detected in asthma clinical samples, as well as in ovalbumin (OVA)-induced chronic asthma mouse models. PLA enhanced FGFBP1 expression through activation of the mechanistic target of rapamycin complex 1-signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (mTORC1-STAT3) signaling pathway. STAT3 transactivated FGFBP1 by directly binding to the promoter of the FGFBP1 gene. Furthermore, we identified that FGFBP1 secreted by PLA-treated airway epithelial cells served as a proangiogenesis factor. Lastly, we found the mTORC1-STAT3-FGFBP1 signaling pathway was activated in an OVA-induced chronic asthma model with airway remodeling features. Rapamycin treatment alleviated respiratory symptoms and reduced angiogenesis in asthmatic mice. Therefore, activation of the mTORC1-STAT3-FGFBP1 pathway in the airway epithelium contributes to the progress of angiogenesis and should be targeted for the treatment of asthma.
