During airway inflammation, proteinases such as human leukocyte elastase are actively secreted. Secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor is a major serine proteinase inhibitor, secreted by bronchial, bronchiolar and lung epithelial cells. We recently identified secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor in human nasal epithelium, exclusively in remodelled areas of the surface epithelium. We now investigated the influence of remodelling and inflammation of the nasal tissue on the in vitro capacity of these cells to respond to human leukocyte elastase. Primary cultures of surface epithelial cells were established from various nasal polyp samples. At confluency, cell cultures were exposed to different human leukocyte elastase concentrations. The secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor immunocytolocalisation, expression and secretion were then investigated. Immunocytochemistry, showed a human leukocyte elastase dose-dependent increase of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor containing cells and a basal extracellular localization of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor after incubation with 100 microg/ml human leukocyte elastase. The relative amount of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor mRNA transcripts increased with respect to the human leukocyte elastase concentration. Nevertheless, the potential stimulation of secretory leukocyte protease inhibitor secretion by human leukocyte elastase was lower in the more remodelled and inflamed tissue. Our results suggest that the contribution of the surface epithelial cells of poorly remodelled tissues to the protection against the deleterious effect of neutrophil proteinases is severely decreased in highly remodelled and inflamed tissues.
