Tuft cells shape airway remodeling by eliciting OXGR1- and SOX9-dependent stem cell programs

Abstract Tissue-resident stem cells play an essential role in repairing barrier tissues subjected to frequent insults. However, the local cues that coordinate successful barrier repair or lead to tissue remodeling are largely unknown. Here we use murine models of airway injury, fate mapping, and null strains to identify a role for rare tuft epithelial cells in signaling to submucosal stem cells through the generation of cysteinyl leukotrienes (CysLTs) and activation of the CysLT receptor OXGR1.

Increased epithelial mTORC1 activity in chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps

|
By Nora Barrett, George X. Huang, Nils Hallen, Minkyu Lee
| BioRxiv
Abstract Background: The airway epithelium plays a central role in the pathogenesis of chronic respiratory diseases such as asthma and chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP), but the mechanisms by which airway epithelial cells (EpCs) maintain inflammation are poorly understood. Objective: We hypothesized that transcriptomic assessment of sorted airway EpCs across the spectrum of differentiation would allow us to define mechanisms by which EpCs perpetuate airway inflammation.
