1 Induction of B7-H1 and B7-DC expression on airway epithelial cells by the Toll-like receptor 3 agonist double-stranded RNA and human rhinovirus infection: In vivo and in vitro studies  Lowella Heinecke, BA, David Proud, PhD, Scherer Sanders, PhD, Robert P. Schleimer, PhD, Jean Kim, MD, PhD  Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  Volume 121, Issue 5, Pages (May 2008) DOI: /j.jaci Copyright © 2008 American Academy of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Induction of BEAS2B cell-surface B7-H1 and B7-DC by dsRNA is inhibited by the potent glucocorticoid fluticasone. BEAS2B cells (n = 6) were cultured in control medium or 25 μg/mL dsRNA for 24 hours, with and without fluticasone (FP; 10−7 mol/L). Flow cytometric analysis (expressed as mean fluorescence intensity [MFI], upper panel) and mRNA analysis (expressed as fold induction of mRNA over control conditions, lower panel) was performed as previously described.18∗P < .01, ∗∗P < .005, and ∗∗∗P < .001.

3 Fig 2 Dose-dependent induction of BEAS2B cell-surface B7-H1 and B7-DC by dsRNA. BEAS2B cells (n = 3) were cultured in control medium or indicated concentrations of dsRNA for 24 hours, with and without fluticasone (10−7 mol/L). Flow cytometric analysis (expressed as mean fluorescence intensity [MFI]) for B7-H1 (left panel) and B7-DC (right panel) was performed as previously described.18∗P < .05 compared with control condition without dsRNA. +P < .05 compared with condition with dsRNA alone. ++P < .08 compared with condition with dsRNA alone.

4 Fig 3 dsRNA induces cell-surface and mRNA levels of B7-H1 and B7-DC on PBECs. PBECs were cultured in control medium or dsRNA (25 μg/mL) for 24 hours with and without fluticasone (FP; 10−7 mol/L). Flow cytometric analysis (expressed as mean fluorescence intensity [MFI], upper panel, n = 5) and mRNA analysis (expressed as fold induction of mRNA over control conditions, lower panel, n = 4) was performed as previously described.18∗P < .05, ∗∗P < .01, ∗∗∗P < .005, and ∗∗∗∗P < .001.

5 Fig 4 In vitro HRV-16 infection induces cell-surface B7-H1 and B7-DC expression on primary airway epithelial cells. PBECs (upper panel, n = 6) and PNECs (lower panel, n = 6) were cultured in control medium or exposed to HRV-16 with and without fluticasone (FP; 10−7mol/L). Flow cytometric analysis for B7 homologs was performed as previously described.18 Data are expressed as mean fluorescence intensity (MFI). ∗P < .01, ∗∗P < .05, and ∗∗∗P < .005.

6 Fig 5 In vivo HRV-16 challenge results in development of symptoms of upper respiratory tract viral infection. Human subjects (n = 6) were intranasally inoculated with 1000 TCID50 of safety-tested HRV-16 stock on day 1. Symptom scores and nasal lavage specimens were obtained on day 0 before inoculation and days 1 to 7, as described in the Methods section. Nasal lavage specimens were assayed for viral titers by means of both cytotoxicity bioassay in WI-38 cells or real-time RT-PCR for HRV-16, and the results were expressed as log TCID50.

7 Fig 6 In vivo HRV-16 challenge increases levels of mRNA for B7-H1 and B7-DC in nasal epithelial scrapings. Human subjects (n = 6) were infected with HRV-16, as described in the Methods section. The results are expressed as fold change comparing nasal scraping samples taken after infection with samples taken before infection. ∗P < .05 compared with preinfection state.
