Little is known
about the molecular basis for differential pulmonary oxidant
sensitivity observed between genetically disparate members of the same
species. We have generated mice that are deficient in Clara cell
secretory protein (CCSP
/
) and that exhibit an oxidant-sensitive phenotype. We characterized the kinetics and distribution of altered stress-response [interleukin-6 (IL-6) and
metallothionein (MT)] and epithelial cell-specific
[cytochrome P-450 2F2
(CYP2F2)] gene expression to further understand the cellular and
molecular basis for altered oxidant sensitivity in 129 strain
CCSP
/
mice. Increases in IL-6 and MT mRNA abundance were detected by 2 h of exposure to 1 part/million
ozone and preceded reductions in Clara cell CYP2F2 mRNA
expression. Despite being qualitatively similar, increases in
IL-6 and MT mRNA expression were enhanced in CCSP
/
mice with
respect to coexposed 129 strain wild-type mice. Increased MT mRNA
expression, indicative of the stress response, localized to the airway
epithelium, surrounding mesenchyme, and endothelium of blood vessels.
These results demonstrate a protective role for Clara cells and their
secretions and indicate potential genetic mechanisms that may influence
susceptibility to oxidant stress.
