Distal lung epithelial cells (DLECs) play an active role in fluid clearance from the alveolus by virtue of their ability to actively transport Na+ from the alveolus to the interstitial space. The present study evaluated the ability of activated macrophages to modulate the bioelectric properties of DLECs. Low numbers of lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-treated macrophages were able to significantly reduce amiloride-sensitive short-circuit current ( I sc) without affecting total I sc or monolayer resistance. This was associated with a rise in the flufenamic acid-sensitive component of the I sc. The effect was reversed by the addition of N-monomethyl-l-arginine to the medium, implying a role for nitric oxide. We hypothesized that macrophages exerted their effect by expressing inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in DLECs. The products of LPS-treated macrophages increased the levels of iNOS protein and mRNA transcripts in DLECs as well as causing a rise in iNOS activity. Immunofluorescence microscopy of LPS-stimulated macrophage-DLEC cocultures with anti-nitrotyrosine antibodies provided evidence for the generation of peroxynitrite in macrophages but not in DLECs. These data indicate that activated macrophages in the lung may contribute to impaired resolution of acute respiratory distress syndrome and suggest a novel mechanism whereby nitric oxide might alter cell function by altering its ion-transporting phenotype.

Transepithelial Na+ transport through epithelial Na+ channels (ENaC) on the apical membrane and Na+-K+-ATPase activity on the basolateral membrane of distal lung epithelial cells are critical for alveolar fluid clearance. Acute exposure to β-adrenergic agonists stimulates lung fluid clearance by increasing Na+ transport. We investigated the effects of chronic exposure to the β2-adrenergic agonist terbutaline on the transepithelial Na+ transport in rat fetal distal lung epithelia (FDLE). FDLE monolayers exposed to 10−4 M terbutaline for 48 h had significantly increased propanolol-blockable transepithelial total and amiloride-sensitive short-circuit current ( Isc); however, when these chronically exposed monolayers were acutely exposed to additional β-agonists and intracellular cAMP upregulators, there was no further increase in Isc. Monolayers exposed to terbutaline for >48 h had Isc similar to control cells. Ouabain-sensitive Na+-K+-ATPase activity was increased in 48-h terbutaline-exposed FDLE whose apical membranes were permeabilized with nystatin. In contrast, terbutaline did not increase amiloride-sensitive apical membrane Isc in FDLE whose basolateral membranes were permeabilized with nystatin. Terbutaline treatment did not affect α-, β-, or γ-ENaC mRNA or α-ENaC protein steady-state levels, but increased total cellular levels and rate of synthesis of α1-Na+-K+-ATPase protein in FDLE in the absence of any change in α1-Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA. Total cellular β1-Na+-K+-ATPase mRNA and protein levels were not affected by terbutaline. These data suggest that FDLE have different responses from adult type II epithelial cells when chronically exposed to terbutaline, and their increased transepithelial Na+ transport occurs via a posttranscriptional increase in α1-Na+-K+-ATPase expression.
