    Abstract Two recent studies have identified novel airway cells termed pulmonary ionocytes that express higher levels of CFTR than other airway cells express. These findings raise new questions in the evolving debate about the physiological role of CFTR in lung epithelia and its importance in the pathogenesis of cystic fibrosis (CF).

    Abstract Background: In the absence of evidence-based strategies to improve patient outcomes, the management of patients with severe idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) exacerbations may vary widely across centres. We assessed between-hospital variation in practices and mortality for patients with severe IPF exacerbations.
    Methods: Using the Premier Healthcare Database from 1 October 2015 to 31 December 2020, we identified patients admitted to intensive care unit (ICU) or intermediate care unit with an IPF exacerbation. We assessed idiosyncratic, between-hospital variation in ICU practices (invasive mechanical ventilation (IMV), non-invasive mechanical ventilation (NIMV), corticosteroid use, and immunosuppressive and/or antioxidant use) and hospital mortality by determining median risk-adjusted hospital rates and intraclass correlation coefficients (ICCs) from hierarchical multivariable regression models. A priori, an ICC>15% was deemed 'high variation'.
    Results: We identified 5256 critically ill patients with a severe IPF exacerbation at 385 US hospitals. Hospital median risk-adjusted rates of practices were: IMV (14% (IQR: 8.3%-26%)), NIMV (42% (31%-54%)), corticosteroid use (89% (84%-93%)), and immunosuppressive and/or antioxidant use (3.3% (1.9%-5.8%)). Model ICCs were: IMV (19% (95% CI: 18% to 21%)), NIMV (15% (13% to 16%)), corticosteroid use (9.8% (8.3% to 11%)), and immunosuppressive and/or antioxidant use (8.5% (7.1% to 9.9%)). The median risk-adjusted hospital mortality was 16% (IQR: 11%-24%) with an ICC of 7.5% (95% CI: 6.2% to 8.9%).
    Interpretation: We observed high variation in the use of IMV and NIMV, and less variation in corticosteroid and immunosuppressant and/or antioxidant use among patients hospitalised with severe IPF exacerbations. Further research is needed to guide the decisions surrounding initiation of IMV and role of NIMV and to understand the effectiveness of corticosteroids among patients with severe IPF exacerbations.

    Abstract Cell therapy is a potential treatment for cystic fibrosis (CF). However, cell engraftment into the airway epithelium is challenging. Here, we model cell engraftment in vitro using the air-liquid interface (ALI) culture system by injuring well-differentiated CF ALI cultures and delivering non-CF cells at the time of peak injury. Engraftment efficiency was quantified by measuring chimerism by droplet digital PCR and functional ion transport in Ussing chambers. Using this model, we found that human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) engraft more efficiently when they are cultured by conditionally reprogrammed cell (CRC) culture methods. Cell engraftment into the airway epithelium requires airway injury, but the extent of injury needed is unknown. We compared three injury models and determined that severe injury with partial epithelial denudation facilitates long-term cell engraftment and functional CFTR recovery up to 20% of wildtype function. The airway epithelium promptly regenerates in response to injury, creating competition for space and posing a barrier to effective engraftment. We examined competition dynamics by time-lapse confocal imaging and found that delivered cells accelerate airway regeneration by incorporating into the epithelium. Irradiating the repairing epithelium granted engrafting cells a competitive advantage by diminishing resident stem cell proliferation. Intentionally, causing severe injury to the lungs of people with CF would be dangerous. However, naturally occurring events like viral infection can induce similar epithelial damage with patches of denuded epithelium. We found that viral preconditioning promoted effective engraftment of cells primed for viral resistance.

    Abstract Life-long reconstitution of a tissue's resident stem cell compartment with engrafted cells has the potential to durably replenish organ function. Here, we demonstrate the engraftment of the airway epithelial stem cell compartment via intra-airway transplantation of mouse or human primary and pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived airway basal cells (BCs). Murine primary or PSC-derived BCs transplanted into polidocanol-injured syngeneic recipients give rise for at least two years to progeny that stably display the morphologic, molecular, and functional phenotypes of airway epithelia. The engrafted basal-like cells retain extensive self-renewal potential, evident by the capacity to reconstitute the tracheal epithelium through seven generations of secondary transplantation. Using the same approach, human primary or PSC-derived BCs transplanted into NOD scid gamma (NSG) recipient mice similarly display multilineage airway epithelial differentiation in vivo. Our results may provide a step toward potential future syngeneic cell-based therapy for patients with diseases resulting from airway epithelial cell damage or dysfunction.

    Abstract Millions suffer from incurable lung diseases, and the donor lung shortage hampers organ transplants. Generating the whole organ in conjunction with the thymus is a significant milestone for organ transplantation because the thymus is the central organ to educate immune cells. Using lineage-tracing mice and human pluripotent stem cell (PSC)-derived lung-directed differentiation, we revealed that gastrulating Foxa2 lineage contributed to both lung mesenchyme and epithelium formation. Interestingly, Foxa2 lineage-derived cells in the lung mesenchyme progressively increased and occupied more than half of the mesenchyme niche, including endothelial cells, during lung development.

    Abstract Cystic fibrosis is a monogenic lung disease caused by dysfunction of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator anion channel, resulting in significant morbidity and mortality. The progress in elucidating the role of CFTR using established animal and cell-based models led to the recent discovery of effective modulators for most individuals with CF. However, a subset of individuals with CF do not respond to these modulators and there is an urgent need to develop novel therapeutic strategies. In this study, we generate a panel of airway epithelial cells using induced pluripotent stem cells from individuals with common or rare CFTR variants representative of three distinct classes of CFTR dysfunction. To measure CFTR function we adapt two established in vitro assays for use in induced pluripotent stem cell-derived airway cells. In both a 3-D spheroid assay using forskolin-induced swelling as well as planar cultures composed of polarized mucociliary airway epithelial cells, we detect genotype-specific differences in CFTR baseline function and response to CFTR modulators. These results demonstrate the potential of the human induced pluripotent stem cell platform as a research tool to study CF and in particular accelerate therapeutic development for CF caused by rare variants.
