ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION Ininflammatory respiratory diseases, the
imbalance between proteases and endogenous protease
inhibitors leads to an exacerbated activity of human neutrophil
elastase (a protease that destroys the extracellular matrix
and stimulates proinfl ammatory cytokine release). Elastase is
considered a target in the search for therapeutic treatments for
infl ammatory respiratory diseases. Pulmonary surfactant is a
promising product for this purpose, because in addition to its
biophysical function, it has anti-infl ammatory properties.
OBJECTIVE Evaluate eff ect of the Cuban porcine pulmonary
surfactant (Surfacen), the rCmPI-II elastase inhibitor, and the
Surfacen/rCmPI-II combination on activated neutrophil elastase
activity in vitro, and determine if Surfacen’s interface
property changes in the presence of the inhibitor.
METHODS The anti-elastase eff ect of Surfacen, rCmPI-II and
the Surfacen/rCmPI-II combination was evaluated in an in
vitro model of activated neutrophils, previously purifi ed from
the blood of healthy subjects. The cells were stimulated with
LPS/fMLP and were incubated with diff erent concentrations of
Surfacen, rCmPI-II and the Surfacen/rCmPI-II combination.
Elastase activity was measured. The interface property was
determined on a Langmuir surface balance.
RESULTS Surfacen at 10 mg/mL inhibited 71% of stimulated
neutrophil elastase activity. rCmPI-II at 0.1 μM reduced 20%
of elastase activity; at 200 μM—the maximum concentration
evaluated—inhibition was 68%. Both products had a dosedependent
eff ect. The Surfacen/inhibitor combination (0.5 mg/
mL/80 μM) did not aff ect the surfactant interface property or
the inhibitory activity of rCmPI-II against human neutrophil
elastase.
CONCLUSIONS Surfacen and the rCmPI-II inhibitor have an
anti-elastase eff ect on an activated neutrophil model. rCmPI-II
does not aff ect Surfacen’s interface property and, therefore,
both can be evaluated for combined use in treating infl ammatory
lung diseases.
