Definitions

  • the present invention relates to composition for the management of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. More specifically, the invention pertains to compositions comprising bisdemethoxycurcumin for regeneration of alveoli and for the management of Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and Acute respiratory distress syndrome.
  • COPD chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
  • Emphysema is a condition in which the alveoli at the end of the smallest air passages (bronchioles) of the lungs are destroyed.
  • Emphysema is defined by the American Thoracic Society as follows: “Emphysema is a condition of the lung characterized by abnormal, permanent enlargement of the air spaces distal to the terminal bronchiole, accompanied by destruction of their walls.” It is a major component of COPD and is characterized by alveolar extracellular matrix destruction, reduction in the alveolar capillary exchange area, which leads to partially reversible airflow obstruction. This causes destruction of the fragile walls and elastic fibers of the alveoli causing collapse in the small airways collapse impairing airflow out of lungs.
  • the signs and symptoms include Shortness of breath, especially during physical activities. Wheezing, Chest tightness, A chronic cough that may produce mucus, Frequent respiratory infections, Lack of energy, Unintended weight loss (in later stages), Swelling in ankles, feet or legs (Thullbeck et al., Emphysema: Definition, Imaging, and Quantification, Benjamin Felson lecture, AJR 1994;163:1017-1025),
  • ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome
  • COPD chronic respiratory distress syndrome
  • ARDS acute respiratory distress syndrome
  • Type I alveolar cells are irreversibly damaged and there is deposition of proteins, fibrin, and cellular debris, producing hyaline membranes in the denuded space.
  • Injury to the surfactant-producing type II cells also contributes to alveolar collapse.
  • the type II cells proliferate with some epithelial cell regeneration, fibroblastic reaction, and remodelling in the proliferative phase (Udobi et al., Acute Respiratory Distress
  • COPD may be a risk factor for more severe COVID-19 disease (Alqahtani et al. Prevalence, severity and mortality associated with COPD and smoking in patients with COVID-19: a rapid systematic review and meta-analysis. PLoS One 2020; 15: e0233147).
  • the pathogenesis ofCOVID-19 can be divided into three phases: First phase of the disease is in the nose, second phase in conducting airways, the bronchi and bronchioles and the third phase of the disease is the lethal phase, as the infection spreads into the gas exchange portion of the lung and infects alveolar type II cells.
  • Alveolar regeneration therapies are now being considered as an effective treatment for the management of COPD and ARDS.
  • the ability of adult mammals to regenerate organs seems to be limited to only the liver.

  • the present invention discloses natural and novel compositions for the regeneration of alveoli and for managing COPD and ARDS.
  • Turmeric has different compounds of which curcumin, dimethoxy curcumin and bisdemethoxycurcmnin are the major players.
  • the biological properties of curcumin, bisdemethoxycurcumin and demethoxycurcumin vary in different diseases and the effect of bidemethoxycurucmin in managing COPD and related functions is not evaluated.

  • lung cells experience hypoxia in acute and chronic lung diseases, during travel to high altitude, and during fetal development. Chronic hypoxia leads to increase in inflammation, alveolar degeneration leading to emphysema which is one of the causative factors for the development of COPD and ARDS.

  • the protein targets of HIF-l ⁇ are involved in the severe hypoxia-induced activation of proinflammatory cytokine expression and the subsequent inflammation process and cytokine storm phase of COVID-19.
  • Pulmonary surfactant is essential for life as it lines the alveoli to lower surface tension.
  • the main functions of surfactant include 1) lowering surface tension at the air-liquid interface and thus preventing alveolar collapse at end-expiration, 2) interacting with and subsequent killing of pathogens and 3) modulating immune responses.
  • Surfactant components are synthesized primarily by the alveolar type II cell, which synthesizes surfactant proteins SP- A, SP-B, and SP-D, collectively called Collectins. They bind to viruses, bacteria to facilitate pathogen removal. Host defense in the alveolar interface is extremely demanding since even moderate degrees of inflammation and exudation compromise gas exchange.
  • SP-A and SP- D are present in the mucus layer and alveolar surface, they are well positioned to prevent infection of epithelial cells through viral neutralization, agglutination, and enhanced phagocytosis.
  • SP-A and/or SP-D bind to hemagglutinin and neuraminidase of influenza A virus to inhibit their activity.
  • Pulmonary collectins also bind to glycoproteins of viruses, including HIV, Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) and severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS) coronavirus.

  • SARS severe acute respiratory syndrome
  • SARS coronavirus spike glycoprotein is selectively recognized by lung surfactant protein D and activates macrophages.
  • Pulmonary capillary leakage followed by influx of blood fluid into the air space of lung alveoli is a crucial step in the progression of lung injury. This influx is due to increased permeability of the alveolar-capillary barrier.

  • Bradykinin is a physiologically and pharmacologically active peptide of the kinin group of proteins, consisting of nine amino acids. It is a potent endothelium-dependent vasodilator and mild diuretic, which causes lowering of the blood pressure. It also causes contraction of non-vascular smooth muscle in the bronchus and gut, increases vascular permeability and is also involved in the mechanism of pain.
  • BDMC decreased the levels of Bradykinin in a dose dependant manner (Fig. 5A).
  • BDMC was also very effective compared to curcumin and DMC in reducing the elevated levels of bradykinin (Fig. 5B).
  • the composition comprising BDMC, curcumin and DMC (BD3 complex) was also effective in decreasing bradykinin levels (Fig. 5C), thereby decreasing pain, inflammation and vascular permeability.
  • T helper type 17 (Thl7) cells are reported to release interleukin (IL)-17 as their effector cytokine under the control of IL-22 and IL-23. This, in turn, plays a role in inducing neutrophils and tissue re-modelling in the bronchi of the patients.
  • IL-17 interleukin-17 in murine lung epithelium induces lung inflammation with a COPD- like phenotype involving recruitment of CD4 cells, mucus hypersecretion and small airways fibrosis. It also causes induction of the expression of many chemokines (including CXCL1 and CXCL 8) and matrix metalloproteinase-9.
  • ILrl7 and IL-23 were significantly elevated in COPD, indicating increased neutrophilic inflammation.
  • BDMC decreased the levels of these inflammatory markers in a dose dependant manner (Fig. 6A).

  • the levels of IL-6 was significantly elevated in COPD.
  • BDMC and BD3 complex decreased the levels of IL6 in a dose dependant manner (Fig. 7A and 7B).
  • Chemokines released from epithelial cells and macrophages in the lung recruit inflammatory cells from the circulation leading to the development of COPD.
  • the inflammatory-cell trafficking orchestrated by multiple chemokines, blocked with selective antagonists is an effective anti-inflammatory strategy in this disease.
  • the levels of CXCL8 were significantly elevated in COPD, indicating increased inflammation and chemokine influx.

  • Lactate dehydrogenase is the enzyme that catalyses the final step in the glycolytic metabolism, regenerating NAD+ from reduced NADH, by conversion of pyruvate to lactate. If cell lysis occurs, or cell membranes are damaged, cytoplasmic enzymes, such as LDH are released into the extracellular space. Increased muscle LDH activity has been found in elderly male patients with COPD who were susceptible to contractile fatigue.
  • the bronchial epithelium also showed occasional positive type II cells, indicating increased degeneration of alveoli.
  • the lesion tissue in groups treated with 25 mg/kg bodyweight showed diffuse thickening of alveolar septa with infiltration of mononuclear cells.
