A significant number of pulmonary exacerbations in patients with cystic fibrosis (CF) and asthma are associated with respiratory virus infections. The molecular mediators of this process are beginning to be understood. Viral infection of respiratory epithelial culturesin vitroleads to the production of intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) (a ligand for inflammatory cell adhesion and activation) and a number of proinflammatory cytokines. Human gene therapy vectors derived from human adenoviruses (AV) are currently under evaluation for CF transmembrane regulator (CFTR) gene delivery to the airway epithelium of CF patients. However, studies in animal models using these AV vectors demonstrate pulmonary inflammation following AV exposure. Using anin vitromodel, we examined the hypothesis that exposure of respiratory epithelial cells to AV vectors results in upregulation of ICAM-1 gene expression. Infections were performed using a replication-deficient, first-generation AV vector. A549 cells (a human pulmonary adenocarcinoma cell line) were exposed to AV at multiplicity of infection of 50–150 plaque-forming units/cell (resulting in >90% of cells expressing the reporter gene by 48 hr following exposure). Measurements of ICAM-1 expression were made at time intervals following virus exposure using enzyme immunoassay, flow cytometry, and Northern blot analysis. Cell-bound ICAM-1 was significantly increased 96 hr following vector exposure, two to four times control,p< 0.001). The AV-exposed A549 cells also supported increased levels of adhesion of activated neutrophils 96 hr following AV exposure (four times control,p< 0.001) that was blocked by antibody to CD18. AV exposure of A549 monolayers increases expression of biologically active ICAM-1. Strategies to minimize host cellular proinflammatory responses to the replication-deficient AV vectors may improve their safety for gene therapy.
