Hereditary Mucin Deficiency Caused by Biallelic Loss of Function of MUC5B
Gregory Costain 1,2,3*, Zhen Liu 3,4,5,6*, Vito Mennella 7, Giorgia Radicioni 8,9, Adrienn N. Goczi 4,5, Alexandra Albulescu 4,5, Susan Walker 3,10, Bo Ngan 11, David Manson 12,13, Reza Vali 12,13, Meraj Khan 14, Nades Palaniyar 14,15, David B. Hill 8,16, David A. Hall 17,18, Christian R.

doi : 10.1164/rccm.202106-1456OC Â
Rationale: Mucin homeostasis is fundamental to airway health. Upregulation of airway mucus glycoprotein MUC5B is observed in diverse common lung diseases and represents a potential therapeutic target. In mice, Muc5b is required for mucociliary clearance and for controlling inflammation after microbial exposure. The consequences of its loss in humans are unclear.
Cathepsin S Contributes to Lung Inflammation in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome
Michael C. McKelvey 1, Anthony A. Abladey 1, Donna M. Small 1, Declan F. Doherty 1, Richard Williams 2, Aaron Scott 3, C. Arnold Spek 4, Keren S. Borensztajn 5†, Leslie Holsinger 6, Robert Booth 6, Cecilia M. O’Kane 7, Daniel F. McAuley 7, Clifford C. Taggart 1, and Sinéad Weldon 1
doi : 10.1164/rccm.202107-1631OC
Rationale: Although the cysteine protease cathepsin S has been implicated in the pathogenesis of several inflammatory lung diseases, its role has not been examined in the context of acute respiratory distress syndrome, a condition that still lacks specific and effective pharmacological treatments.
Trikafta Rescues CFTR and Lowers Monocyte P2X7R-induced Inflammasome Activation in Cystic Fibrosis
Claudie Gabillard-Lefort 1, Michelle Casey 1,2, Arlene M. A. Glasgow 3, Fiona Boland 4, Orla Kerr 2, Elaine Marron 2, Anne-Marie Lyons 2, Cedric Gunaratnam 1,2, Noel G. McElvaney 1,2, and Emer P. Reeves 1
doi : 10.1164/rccm.202106-1426OC
Rationale: Cystic fibrosis (CF) is caused by mutations in the CFTR (CF transmembrane conductance regulator) gene and is characterized by sustained inflammation. ATP triggers IL-1β secretion via P2X7R (P2X7 receptor) and activation of the NLRP3 (NOD-, LRR-, and pyrin domain–containing protein 3) inflammasome.
Associations of Monocyte Count and Other Immune Cell Types with Interstitial Lung Abnormalities
John S. Kim 1,2*, GÃÂsli Thor Axelsson 3,4*, Matthew Moll 5,6*, Michaela R. Anderson 2, Elana J. Bernstein 2, Rachel K. Putman 5, Tomoyuki Hida 7,8, Hiroto Hatabu 7, Eric A. Hoffman 9,10,11, Ganesh Raghu 12, Steven M. Kawut 13,14, Margaret F. Doyle 15, Russell Tracy 15, Lenore J. Launer 16, Ani Manichaikul 17, Stephen S. Rich 17, David J. Lederer 18, Vilmundur Gudnason 3,4, Brian D. Hobbs 5,6, Michael H. Cho 5,6, Gary M. Hunninghake 5, Christine Kim Garcia 2, Gunnar Gudmundsson 3,19, R. Graham Barr 2,20, and Anna J. Podolanczuk 2,21
doi : 10.1164/rccm.202108-1967OC
Rationale: Higher blood monocyte counts are associated with worse survival in adults with clinically diagnosed pulmonary fibrosis. Their association with the development and progression of interstitial lung abnormalities (ILA) in humans is unknown.
Epigenetic Modification of the von Willebrand Factor Promoter Drives Platelet Aggregation on the Pulmonary Endothelium in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
Xue D. Manz 1, Robert Szulcek 1,2, Xiaoke Pan 1, Petr Symersky 3, Chris Dickhoff 3, Jisca Majolée 4, Veerle Kremer 4, Elisabetta Michielon 5, Ekaterina S. Jordanova 6, Teodora Radonic 7, Irene V. Bijnsdorp 8, Sander R. Piersma 8, Thang V. Pham 8, Connie R. Jimenez 8, Anton Vonk Noordegraaf 1, Frances S. de Man 1, Reinier A. Boon 4, Jan Voorberg 9, Peter L. Hordijk 4, Jurjan Aman 1*, and Harm Jan Bogaard 1*
doi : 10.1164/rccm.202109-2075OC
Rationale: von Willebrand factor (vWF) mediates platelet adhesion during thrombosis. While chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is associated with increased plasma levels of vWF, the role of this protein in CTEPH has remained enigmatic.

doi : 10.1164/rccm.202105-1246OC
Rationale: African American individuals have worse outcomes in chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD).

Laure F. Pittet 1,2,3, Nora Fritschi 4,5, Marc Tebruegge 3,6,7, Binita Dutta 8, Susan Donath 3,9, Nicole L. Messina 2,3, Dan Casalaz 10, Willem A. Hanekom 11, Warwick J. Britton 12, Roy Robins-Browne 2,13, Nigel Curtis 1,2,3*, Nicole Ritz 3,4,5*; and the BCG Immune Response Study (BIRS) Group
doi : 10.1164/rccm.202108-1892OC
Rationale: Scar formation following bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG) vaccination has been associated with lower all-cause mortality; the relation between scar and mycobacteria-specific protection against tuberculosis is debated.
