Am J Physiol Lung Cell Mol Physiol 296: L648-L656, 2009. First published February 6, 2009; doi:10.1152/ajplung.90270.2008. Chronic inflammation, imbalance of proteolytic and anti-proteolytic activities, oxidative stress, and apoptosis of lung structural cells contribute to the pathogenesis of COPD. Prostacyclin protects cells against apoptosis, has anti-inflammatory properties, partially prevents cigarette smoke extract (CSE)-induced apoptosis of the pulmonary endothelium, and thus may be relevant in the pathogenesis of emphysema. We determined whether a synthetic stable prostacyclin analog, beraprost sodium (BPS), attenuates the development of CSE-induced emphysema and elucidated the molecular mechanisms involved in its effect. Sprague-Dawley rats were treated with BPS and injected with CSE once a week for 3 wk. We measured the DNA damage of cells, the expression of caspase-3, and the activity of matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-2 and MMP-9. We also analyzed TNF alpha and IL-1 beta concentrations and the serum antioxidant activity. BPS prevented the development of CSE-induced emphysema, resulting in significant attenuation in alveolar enlargement and pulmonary parenchymal destruction. BPS inhibited pulmonary apoptosis and induction of MMP-2 and MMP-9 activity. Moreover, the protective effect of BPS was associated with a reduction of the expression of proinflammatory cytokines including TNF alpha and IL-1 beta and a normalized biological oxidant activity. BPS introduces all these events, probably by activating cAMP signaling through acting specific prostacyclin receptors. In conclusion, BPS protects against the development of CSE-induced emphysema by attenuating apoptosis, inhibiting proteolytic enzyme activity, reducing inflammatory cytokine levels, and augmenting antioxidant activity. BPS may potentially represent a new therapeutic option in the prevention of emphysema in humans in prospect.
