Definitions

  • the present application relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of respiratory diseases. It also relates to compositions and methods for regulating the paracellular permeability of pulmonary epithelium.
  • the compositions and methods of the invention are based in particular on the use of agents or conditions modulating the cytoskeletal tension of pulmonary epithelial cells.
  • the invention is useful for the preventive or curative treatment of various pathologies, such as asthma, allergies, obstructive diseases, etc., in mammals, especially humans.
  • the pulmonary epithelium is the center of very important exchanges between the external environment and the organism. These exchanges can take place either through the cells of the epithelium or through parallel networks.
  • the transport of water or electrolytes, or the absorption of small molecules (molecular weight generally less than about 1000 Da) in the gastric mucosa, intestinal or colonic is carried out transcellularly, through epithelial cells or enterocytes.
  • the absorption of large molecules and the passage of toxins or immune cells is mainly paracellular, at the level of "tight junctions", which are arranged between the epithelial cells.
  • TJ tight junctions epithelial
  • the tight junctions epithelial are structures of connection between the cells bordering the mucous epithelia (digestive tract, lungs). These structures provide and control the transepithelial paracellular transport, from the outside to the submucosa, of various macromolecules (irritants, microorganisms). These structures also allow the migration of immune cells (eg, immunocytes) to the outside.
  • Tight junctions are flexible structures consisting of a complex assembly of transmembrane proteins (occludins, claudines) and cytoplasmic proteins (zona ocludens ZO-1, ZO-2, ZO-3 proteins, AF7 proteins, cingulin or 7H6, etc.), variable according to the epithelia considered, which are associated to elements of the cytoskeleton (filaments of myosin, actin, etc.).
  • agents disrupting the actin cytoskeleton have been shown to increase the activity of NO synthase in endothelial cells (WO00 / 03746).
  • the allergen sensitization process is a very important risk factor in the development of allergies and asthma.
  • the mechanisms by which allergens are able to initiate the sensitization phenomenon are not clearly documented in vivo.
  • allergens When allergens are inhaled, they come into contact with the pulmonary epithelial wall which prevents their introduction into the body and their contact with the cells of immunity.
  • the conditions under which this transfer is possible remain poorly documented in vivo.
  • some reports suggest, on in vitro cell cultures, a role of tight junctions in this process, no demonstration has been made of the involvement of these junctions in vivo in the development of sensitization.
  • the present application results from the demonstration of an in vivo role of the tight junctions of the pulmonary epithelium in the allergen sensitization process.
  • the present application also results from the development of new therapeutic strategies for the treatment of respiratory pathologies, based on a modulation of the para-cellular permeability of the pulmonary epithelium.
  • the present application proposes, for the first time, a therapeutic approach to respiratory pathologies based on the use of compounds or conditions for modulating the cytoskeletal tension of pulmonary epithelial cells. This approach makes it possible in particular to control the opening and closing of the tight junctions of the pulmonary epithelium, without necessarily resorting to de novo protein synthesis and / or to significant protein and / or structural degradations at the level of the epithelium.
  • This strategy makes it possible to regulate the permeability of the pulmonary epithelium in a specific, fine and reactive manner, and thus to act on the transfer of allergens to the cells of the immunity.
  • This strategy is particularly adapted to obtaining a rapid and controllable biological effect over time (reversible).
  • the results presented in the application show that substances capable of relaxing the tight epithelial junctions (PAR-2 receptor activating peptide, LPS) promote the alveolar accumulation of neutrophils and eosinophils, as is observed in bronchial diseases. -sulmonary such as asthma.
  • results show that a chemical capable of reducing the permeability of the tight junctions of the pulmonary epithelium prevents the accumulation of neutrophils and eosinophils.

It is proposed in the context of the invention that the cytoskeletal tension can be modulated in subjects with respiratory diseases or disorders to act in a non-destructive and transient manner on the permeability of their pulmonary epithelium. Thus, the contraction of the cytoskeleton should favor the opening of the tight junctions, while a relaxation of the cytoskeleton (or an inhibition of the contraction) should favor the closing of the junctions.
