Modulation of cytosolic Ca(2+) concentration in airway epithelial cells by Pseudomonas aeruginosa.
Modulation of cytosolic (intracellular) Ca(2+) concentration (Ca(i)) may be an important host response when airway epithelial cells are exposed to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We measured Ca(i) in Calu-3 cells exposed from the apical or basolateral surface to cytotoxic and noncytotoxic strains of P. aeruginosa. Apical addition of either noncytotoxic strains or cytotoxic strains failed to affect Ca(i...

Modulation of cytosolic (intracellular) Ca concentration (Cai) may be an important host response when airway epithelial cells are exposed to Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We measured Cai in Calu-3 cells exposed from the apical or basolateral surface to cytotoxic and noncytotoxic strains of P. aeruginosa. Apical addition of either noncytotoxic strains or cytotoxic strains failed to affect Cai over a 3...
متن کاملPseudomonas aeruginosa acquires biofilm-like properties within airway epithelial cells.
Pseudomonas aeruginosa can notably cause both acute and chronic infection. While several virulence factors are implicated in the acute phase of infection, advances in understanding bacterial pathogenesis suggest that chronic P. aeruginosa infection is related to biofilm formation. However, the relationship between these two forms of disease is not well understood. Accumulating evidence indicate...
متن کاملAirway epithelial cell tolerance to Pseudomonas aeruginosa
BACKGROUND The respiratory tract epithelium is a critical environmental interface that regulates inflammation. In chronic infectious airway diseases, pathogens may permanently colonize normally sterile luminal environments. Host-pathogen interactions determine the intensity of inflammation and thus, rates of tissue injury. Although many cells become refractory to stimulation by pathogen product...
متن کاملRegulation of matrilysin expression in airway epithelial cells by Pseudomonas aeruginosa flagellin.
Matrilysin (matrix metalloproteinase-7) is expressed by mucosal epithelia throughout the body and functions in host defense by activating murine intestinal alpha-defensins. In normal adult human lung, matrilysin is expressed at low levels in the airway epithelium, but is markedly up-regulated in cystic fibrosis (CF). Because CF lungs support a heavy bacterial load, we assessed if relevant CF pa...
