    Abstract Severe asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) are chronic lung diseases with a clear need for development of new and more efficient therapy. In preclinical research, the mouse model has been instrumental in advancing our knowledge of the biology and immunology. However, it has been proven rather difficult and time consuming to develop new treatments that can impact on the clinical course of these diseases. Many challenges need to be overcome for upgrading the quality of currently available experimental disease models in order to enhance the translation rate of basic research to clinical practice. Establishment of transgenic mouse overexpressing disease-causing genes may provide tools to discover new pathological pathways and to evaluate the possibility of molecular targeted therapy in chronic lung diseases. Personalized medicine, if developed, might be the solution for 'disease heterogeneity' and for improving clinical outcome.

    Abstract Importance of the field: The prevention and relief of symptoms by regular use of bronchodilators is central to the pharmacological management of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).
    Areas covered in this review: The aim of this article is to review the effects of inhaled muscarinic antagonists in the treatment of stable COPD.
    What the reader will gain: An update of the clinical studies performed with the long-acting inhaled muscarinic antagonist (LAMA) tiotropium bromide in patients with COPD is given. In recent years, combinations of a LAMA and a long-acting inhaled beta2-agonist (LABA), and 'triple therapy' consisting of a LAMA, a LABA, and an inhaled steroid are being developed. Issues of safety of inhaled anticholinergics in COPD are discussed and a short overview of new LAMAs being developed for COPD is given.
    Take home messages: The importance of anticholinergic drug treatment in COPD was largely advanced by the development of the first LAMA, tiotropium bromide. The vast experience obtained with tiotropium bromide has paved the way for new LAMAs such as aclidinium bromide and glycopyrrolate (NVA-237).

    Abstract Increased expression of pulmonary ACE2, the SARS-CoV-2 receptor, could contribute to increased infectivity of COVID-19 in patients with diabetes, but ACE2 expression has not been studied in lung tissue of subjects with diabetes. We therefore studied ACE2 mRNA and protein expression in lung tissue samples of subjects with and without diabetes that were collected between 2002 and 2020 from patients undergoing lobectomy for lung tumors. For RT-PCR analyses, samples from 15 subjects with diabetes were compared with 91 randomly chosen control samples. For immunohistochemical staining, samples from 26 subjects with diabetes were compared with 66 randomly chosen control samples. mRNA expression of ACE2 was measured by quantitative RT-PCR. Protein levels of ACE2 were visualized by immunohistochemistry on paraffin-embedded lung tissue samples and quantified in alveolar and bronchial epithelium. Pulmonary ACE2 mRNA expression was not different between subjects with or without diabetes. In contrast, protein levels of ACE2 were significantly increased in both alveolar tissue and bronchial epithelium of patients with diabetes compared with control subjects, independent of smoking, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, BMI, renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system inhibitor use, and other potential confounders. To conclude, we show increased bronchial and alveolar ACE2 protein expression in patients with diabetes. Further research is needed to elucidate whether upregulation of ACE2 expression in airways and lungs has consequences on infectivity and clinical outcomes of COVID-19.

    Abstract Since microRNA (miR)-223-3p modulates inflammatory responses and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is associated with amplified pulmonary inflammation, we hypothesized that miR-223-3p plays a role in COPD pathogenesis. Expression of miR-223-3p was measured in lung tissue of two independent cohorts with patients with GOLD stage II-IV COPD, never smokers, and smokers without COPD. The functional role of miR-223-3p was studied in deficient mice and on overexpression in airway epithelial cells from COPD and controls. We observed higher miR-223-3p levels in patients with COPD stage II-IV compared with (non)-smoking controls, and levels were associated with higher neutrophil numbers in bronchial biopsies of patients with COPD. MiR-223-3p expression was also increased in lungs and bronchoalveolar lavage of cigarette smoke (CS)-exposed mice. CS-induced neutrophil and monocyte lung infiltration was stronger in miR-223-deficient mice on acute (5 days) exposure, but attenuated on subchronic (4 wk) exposure. Additionally, miR-223 deficiency attenuated acute and subchronic CS-induced lung infiltration of dendritic cells and T lymphocytes. Finally, in vitro overexpression of miR-223-3p in non-COPD airway epithelial cells suppressed C-X-C motif chemokine ligand 8 (CXCL8) and granulocyte monocyte-colony stimulation factor (GM-CSF) secretion and gene expression of the proinflammatory transcription factor
