3 Fig 2 HMGB1 mRNA and protein expression in ASMCs assessed by (A) quantitative PCR and flow cytometry (B) at baseline with representative histograms to the right and (C) following stimulation with proinflammatory cytokines (TNF-α, IFN-γ, and IL-1β, 10 ng/mL) or the dsRNA mimic poly(I:C) (12.5 μg/mL). *P < .05 versus unstimulated ASMCs. ROS production in response to (D) HMGB1 (  ng/mL) in ASMCs, *P ≤ .05 healthy control (●) vs patient with asthma (■), unpaired t test, (n = 5-9 ASM donors), and (E) HMGB1 (1000 ng/mL) ± LPS-RS or sRAGE (10 μg/mL) in ASMCs from healthy controls.

4 Fig E1 Sputum HMGB1 correlated with sputum total cell count (A) and sputum nonviable cell count (B) in patients with asthma. C, Sputum esRAGE concentration in subjects with asthma and healthy controls. Horizontal bar represents geometric mean (95% CI). P value from Kruskall-Wallis test. Subject characteristics are presented in Table E2. D, The number of HMGB1+ cells/mm2 epithelium in bronchial biopsies. E and F, RAGE expression was assessed using a semi-quantitative scoring system: 0 = no positive staining; 1 = little positive staining; 2 = moderate positive staining; 3 = marked positive staining by a blinded observer in (Fig E1, E) ASM and (Fig E1, F) epithelium in bronchial biopsies. G-L, HMGB1/RAGE staining in bronchial tissue: G, Isotype control (rabbit immunoglobulin fraction, ×200 magnification), HMGB1 staining (brown) in a healthy control (H, ×200 magnification; I, ×400 magnification) and in a subject with severe asthma (J, ×200 magnification; K, ×400 magnification); positive staining was observed in the smooth muscle (arrow) and the epithelium (arrow head). L, RAGE staining in a tissue section from a patient with severe asthma showing RAGE expression in smooth muscle (arrow) and epithelium (arrowhead) at ×200 magnification. Inset: mouse IgG2a isotype control (×200 magnification). Subject characteristics are presented in Table E3.

5 Fig E2 A, HMGB1 protein expression in ASM cells was assessed by immunofluorescence. B, Representative immunofluorescent staining of cell nuclei (DAPI, upper panel), HMGB1 (middle panel), and merged DAPI and HMGB1 (lower panel). C, ASM from subjects with asthma and control subjects was shown to express different isoforms of RAGE by PCR. PCR products were isolated by gel purification, sequenced, and identified as full-length membrane-bound RAGE (RAGE), or soluble isoforms of RAGE (sRAGE 1-3). M = molecular weight marker, C = healthy control, A = asthma. D, Representative flow cytometry histograms showing cell-surface RAGE ( FITC fluorescence, upper panel) and TLR4 (Alexa Fluor 488 fluorescence, lower panel) expression in ASM cells. Open histograms represent isotype controls; dark gray and light gray shaded histograms are RAGE or TLR4-stained cells, respectively. E, ASM cell-surface receptor expression was expressed as gMFI (fold change antibody/isotype control) for healthy control subjects (●) and subjects with asthma () for RAGE or TLR4 (P = .84 and P = .99, healthy control vs patient with asthma, respectively, unpaired t test). DAPI, 4′,6′-Diamidino-2 phenylindole; FITC, fluorescein isothiocyanate. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  , e8DOI: ( /j.jaci ) Copyright © 2017 The Authors Terms and Conditions

6 Fig E3 A, Time course of contraction of collagen gels impregnated with ASM cells from healthy controls and subjects with asthma in the absence of bradykinin, with the area under the curve (AUC) over a 24-hour period as an inset. Time course (B) and AUC over a 60-minute period (C) of contraction of collagen gels impregnated with ASM from subjects with asthma in the absence of bradykinin, following incubation with HMGB1 (1000 ng/mL, n = 5). D, Time course of contraction of collagen gels impregnated with ASM cells in the presence of bradykinin following incubation with HMGB1 (1000 ng/mL), n = 12 ASM donors, *P < .05 HMGB1 versus vehicle control, paired t test at each time point. E, AUC over a 60-minute period of contraction of collagen gels impregnated with ASM cells in the presence of bradykinin following incubation with HMGB1 (1000 ng/mL), healthy control (●), asthma (), P < .05, paired t test. F, Reduction in AUC at 60 minutes (% vehicle control) in gels impregnated with ASM derived from both healthy controls and subjects with asthma, *P < .05 versus vehicle control. G, Compared with the premigration control significant ASM cell migration, measured by counting Hoechst-positive cell nuclei in the migration zone, was seen (*P < .05 vs premigration control) but was not significantly different following treatment for 24 hours with exogenous 1000 ng/mL HMGB1, or by blocking the activity of endogenously released HMGB1 with 10 μg/mL sRAGE or 10 μg/mL LPS-RS. H, Cell proliferation as measured by the CellTiter AQueous One Solution Cell Proliferation Assay was unaffected following treatment with 1000 ng/mL HMGB1 for 72 hours in the presence or absence of serum. The percentage of cells undergoing apoptosis as detected by Annexin V staining (I) and necrosis as detected by propidium iodide (J) was not significantly different following treatment with 1000 ng/mL HMGB1. Staurosporine (STS) was used as a positive control. Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology  , e8DOI: ( /j.jaci ) Copyright © 2017 The Authors Terms and Conditions
