Abstract

Obesity is a risk factor for asthma. Individuals with asthma and obesity often have poor asthma control and do not respond as well to therapies such as inhaled corticosteroids and long-acting bronchodilators. Weight loss improves asthma control, with a 5%-10% loss in body mass necessary and sufficient to lead to clinically relevant improvements. Preclinical studies have demonstrated the pathogenic contribution of adipocytes from obese mice to the augmented production of proinflammatory cytokines from airway epithelial cells and the salutary effects of diet-induced weight loss to decrease these consequences. However, the effects of adipocyte-derived products on airway epithelial function in human obesity remain incompletely understood. We utilized samples collected from a 12-mo longitudinal study of subjects with obesity undergoing weight loss (bariatric) surgery including controls without asthma and subjects with allergic and nonallergic obese asthma. Visceral adipose tissue (VAT) samples were collected during bariatric surgery and from recruited normal weight controls without asthma undergoing elective abdominal surgery. Human bronchial epithelial (HBEC3-KT) cells were exposed to plasma or conditioned media from cultured VAT adipocytes with or without agonists. Human bronchial smooth muscle (HBSM) cells were similarly exposed to adipocyte-conditioned media. Proinflammatory cytokines were augmented in supernatants from HBEC3-KT cells exposed to plasma as compared with subsequent visits. Whereas exposure to obese adipocyte-conditioned media induced proinflammatory responses, there were no differences between groups in both HBEC3-KT and HBSM cells. These data show that bariatric surgery and subsequent weight loss beneficially change the circulating factors that augment human airway epithelial and bronchial smooth muscle cell proinflammatory responses.NEW & NOTEWORTHY This longitudinal study following subjects with asthma and obesity reveals that weight loss following bariatric surgery decreases the capacity for plasma to augment proinflammatory cytokine secretion by human bronchial epithelial cells, implicating that circulating but not adipocyte-derived factors are important modulators in obese asthma.
