Airway diseases can disrupt tight junction proteins, compromising the epithelial barrier and making it more permeable to pathogens. In people with pulmonary disease who are prone to infection withPseudomonas aeruginosa, pro-inflammatory leukotrienes are increased and anti-inflammatory lipoxins are decreased. Upregulation of lipoxins is effective in counteracting inflammation and infection. However, whether combining a lipoxin receptor agonist with a specific leukotriene A4hydrolase (LTA4H) inhibitor could enhance these protective effects has not to our knowledge been investigated. Therefore, we explored the effect of lipoxin receptor agonist BML-111 and JNJ26993135 a specific LTA4H inhibitor that prevents the production of pro-inflammatory LTB4on tight junction proteins disrupted byP.aeruginosafiltrate (PAF) in human airway epithelial cell lines H441 and 16HBE-14o. Pre-treatment with BML-111 prevented an increase in epithelial permeability induced by PAF and conserved ZO-1 and claudin-1 at the cell junctions. JNJ26993135 similarly prevented the increased permeability induced by PAF, restored ZO-1 and E-cadherin and reduced IL-8 but not IL-6. Cells pre-treated with BML-111 plus JNJ26993135 restored TEER and permeability, ZO-1 and claudin-1 to the cell junctions. Taken together, these data indicate that the combination of a lipoxin receptor agonist with a LTA4H inhibitor could provide a more potent therapy.
