Abstract

 

Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is characterized by progressive airflow limitation resulting from inflammation?driven pathologies in the lungs that are a consequence of smoking over many years. Given that the disease is increasing globally, understanding the mechanism by which cigarette smoke (CS) causes lung inflammation and exploiting that knowledge to develop effective treatments is urgently required. Animal models of CS exposure are commonly used to examine the inflammatory processes that may be involved in the development of COPD. The protocols described in this unit detail the development of preclinical models of CS?driven lung inflammation. These systems can be utilized to investigate the role of various biological pathways in CS?mediated inflammation and to assess the efficacy of new therapeutic strategies for treating COPD. Curr.

(A ) Male C57BL/6 mice were challenged for 3 days with CS (250, 500, or 750 ml/min, 1 hr, twice daily, 4 hr apart) or ambient air. Bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) samples were collected 24 hr after the final challenge. Graph illustrates the numbers of neutrophils in the BALF; the arrow indicates the CS challenge level (500 ml/min) chosen for further work. Data are presented as mean ± SE of n = 6 to 8 observations. (B ) Mice were challenged for 3 days with CS (500 ml/min, 1 hr, twice daily) or ambient air. BALF samples were collected at increasing time points after the final challenge. Graph illustrates the numbers of neutrophils in the BALF. Data are presented as mean ± SE of n = 6 to 8 observations. Figure adapted from Eltom et al. ().
