To examine
the effects of bafilomycin A1, a blocker of vacuolar
H+-ATPase, on rhinovirus (RV) infection in the airway
epithelium, primary cultures of human tracheal epithelial cells were
infected with RV14. Viral infection was confirmed by showing that viral RNA in the infected cells and the viral titers in the supernatants of
infected cells increased with time. RV14 infection upregulated the
production of cytokines and mRNA of intercellular adhesion molecule
(ICAM)-1 in epithelial cells. Bafilomycin A1 reduced the
viral titers of RV14 and inhibited the production of cytokines and
ICAM-1 before and after RV14 infection. Bafilomycin A1
reduced susceptibility of epithelial cells to RV14 infection. RV14
increased activated nuclear factor-
B in the cells, and bafilomycin
A1 reduced the activated nuclear factor-
B. Bafilomycin
A1 decreased the number of acidic endosomes in the
epithelial cells. These results suggest that bafilomycin A1
may inhibit infection by RV14 by not only blocking RV RNA entry into
the endosomes but also reducing ICAM-1 expression in the epithelial
cells. Bafilomycin A1 may therefore modulate airway
inflammation after RV infection.
