摘要

In order to delineate individual pathomechanisms in acute lung injury and pulmonary toxicology, we developed a primary coculture system to simulate the human alveolo-capillary barrier. Human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMEC) were cocultivated with primary isolated human type II alveolar epithelial cells (HATII) on opposite sides of a permeable filter support, thereby constituting a bilayer. Within 7–11 days of coculture, the HATII cells partly transdifferentiated to type-I-like (HATI-like) cells, as demonstrated by morphological changes from a cuboidal to a flattened morphology, the loss of HATII-cell-specific organelles and the increase of HATI-cell-related markers (caveolin-1, aquaporin-5, receptor for advanced glycation end-products). Immunofluorescent analysis detected type-II-like and type-I-like alveolar epithelial cells mimicking the heterocellular composition of alveolar epithelium in vivo. The heterocellular epithelial monolayer showed a circumferential staining of tight-junctional (ZO-1, occludin) and adherens-junctional (E-cadherin, β-catenin) proteins. HPMEC on the opposite side also developed tight and adherens junctions (VE-cadherin, β-catenin). Under integral barrier properties, exposure to the proinflammatory cytokine tumour necrosis factor-α from either the endothelial (basolateral) or the epithelial (apical) side caused a largely compartmentalized release of the chemokines interleukin-8 and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1. Thus, the established coculture provides a suitable in vitro model to examine barrier function at the distal lung, including the interaction of microvascular endothelial cells with ATII-like and ATI-like epithelial cells. The compartmentalization of the barrier-forming bilayer also allows mechanisms of lung injury to be studied in both the epithelial (intra-alveolar) and the endothelial (intravascular) compartments.
