EB2000 SYMPOSIUM REPORT
Apoptosis in lung pathophysiology

As recently as 1993, fewer than 10 manuscripts had been published on the topic of apoptosis specifically in the lung. Although that number is increasing, far fewer papers appear each year on apoptosis in the lung than in the other major organs. Therefore, our knowledge of this important aspect of lung cell physiology is relatively rudimentary. Recent literature is beginning to define important roles for apoptosis in normal lung cell turnover, lung development, and the pathogenesis of diseases such as interstitial pulmonary fibrosis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Although the involvement of lung cell apoptosis in each of these examples seems clear, the many factors comprising the normal and abnormal regulation of cell death remain to be elucidated and are likely to be different in each situation. The definition of those factors will be an exciting and challenging field of research for many years to come. In that context, the goal of this symposium was to discuss, from a physiological perspective, some of the most recent and exciting advances in the definition of signaling mechanisms involved in the regulation of apoptosis specifically in lung cell populations.
