C-EBPβ mediates in cigarette/IL-17A-induced bronchial epithelial–mesenchymal transition in COPD mice

Abstract Background Cigarettes smoking and IL-17A contribute to chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and have synergistical effect on bronchial epithelial cell proliferation. CCAAT/enhancer-binding protein β (C-EBPβ) could be induced by IL-17A and is up-regulated in COPD. We explored the ef...

We explored the effect of cigarettes and IL-17 on bronchial epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT) in COPD mice and potential mechanism involved with C-EBPβ in this study.

Primary bronchial epithelial cells were separated from health mice and cocultured with cigarette smoke extract (CSE) or/and IL-17A. E-Cadherin, Vimentin and IL-17 receptor (IL-17R) expressions in vitro were assessed. When C-EBPβ were silenced by siRNA in cells, E-Cadherin, Vimentin and C-EBPβ expressions were detected.

IL-17A and C-EBPβ expressions were higher in lung tissues of COPD mice than controls. In vitro, C-EBPβ protein expression was highest in CSE + IL-17A group, followed by CSE and IL-17A groups.
