Aeroallergens produced byAlternaria alternatacan elicit life-threatening exacerbations of asthma in patients sensitized to this fungus. In this study, the effect ofAlternariaon ion transport mechanisms underlying mucociliary clearance and airway epithelial barrier function was investigated in human airway epithelial cells. Apical exposure toAlternariainduced an increase in anion secretion that was inhibited by blockers of CFTR and Ca2+-activated Cl−channels. Stimulation of anion secretion was dependent on Ca2+uptake from the apical solution.Alternariaexposure also produced an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS) that was blocked by pretreatment with the oxidant scavenger glutathione (GSH). GSH and the NADPH oxidase inhibitor/complex 1 electron transport inhibitor diphenylene iodonium chloride (DPI) blocked ATP release and the increase in intracellular [Ca2+] evoked byAlternaria.Alternariaalso decreased transepithelial resistance, and a portion of this effect was dependent on the increase in ROS. However, theAlternaria-induced increase in unidirectional dextran (molecular mass = 4,000 Da) flux across the epithelium could not be accounted for by increased oxidative stress. These results support the conclusion that oxidative stress induced byAlternariawas responsible for regulating Ca2+-dependent anion secretion and tight junction electrical resistance that would be expected to affect mucociliary clearance.
