Figure 1 Fibroblasts isolated from the lungs of IPF patients spontaneously express several distinctive and stable phenotypes in in vitro cultures. A: Doubling time of IPF LFs displaying low growth activity in comparison with control LFs. Graph data are mean ± SE. *P < 0.05. B: Images of phase-contrast microscopy of control LFs and IPF LFs in routine cultures (original magnification, ×20). C: Expression of Y705 pSTAT3 and total STAT3 proteins was determined by immunoblotting of protein extracts from IPF LF and control LF lines (one representative immunoblot of two independent experiments is shown). Densitometry and STAT3 activity measuring were performed as described in Materials and Methods. D: Levels of STAT3 activation at baseline in IPF LFs were significantly higher compared with control LFs (*P < 0.05; Mann-Whitney U-test). The data presented in box-and-whisker plots are from 8 IPF LFs and 10 control LFs; horizontal lines are median, bars are quartiles, and dots are range of STAT3 activation. E: Levels of baseline α-SMA (ACTA2), COL1A1, FN1, vimentin (VIM), and β3 integrin (ITGB3) mRNA expression in IPF LFs (n = 6) and control LFs (n = 7). Data are mean ± SE. *P < 0.05 compared with control LFs.

Figure 3 Effect of IL-6, OSM, and STAT3-mediated signaling on collagen I expression and secretion by normal LFs and LFs obtained from UIP/IPF patients. A: Levels of STAT3 activation induced by IL-6 family cytokines and IL-10 after 15 minutes of stimulation of IPF LFs and control LFs. Each dot represents an individual value for each LF line and cytokine. B: Primary normal LFs were stimulated for 24 hours with IL-6 and OSM with and without cell-permeable STAT3 inhibitory peptide (S3IP, 100 μmol/L). COL1A1 and COL1A2 in cell culture supernatants were determined by immunoblotting. One representative immunoblot of two independent experiments is shown. C: COL1A1 gene expression by IPF LFs (n = 4) and control LFs (n = 4) in the presence of IL-6, OSM, and TGF-β1 at different concentrations. Cells were stimulated for 48 hours. Data are mean ± SE. *P < 0.05 compared with nonstimulated (NS) controls. D: Primary normal LFs were infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP as an infection control and after 72 hours of culture cell-free supernatants were collected and COL1A1 and COL1A2 determined by immunoblotting. Two representative immunoblots of three experiments with primary normal LFs performed in triplicates are shown. E: Four randomly selected IPF LF lines were infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP and 24 hours after infection treated with TGF-β1 (5 ng/mL) for 48 hours. COL1A1 and COL1A2 in cell-free conditional culture medium was determined by immunoblotting. In two IPF LF lines of four lines analyzed, inhibition of STAT3 signaling strongly diminished both basal and TGF-β1–induced COL1A1 and COL1A2 secretion. Two immunoblots from two independent experiments are shown.

Figure 4 IL-6– and OSM-induced STAT3 signaling modulates α-SMA expression by primary human LFs. LFs were stimulated with IL-6 (100 ng/mL), OSM (10 ng/mL), or TGF-β1 (10 ng/mL) and their combinations for 8 hours. A: Expression of α-SMA was analyzed by immunoblotting of the total cell protein extracts. Data are mean ± SE percentage of α-SMA expression in nonstimulated cells (n = 3). *P < 0.05 compared with TGF-β1 alone; †P < 0.05. B: α-SMA, total STAT3 and pSTAT3, and Smad3 were determined in the protein extracts from LFs treated as described above. One representative immunoblot of three independent experiments is shown. C: LFs isolated from three healthy donor's lungs were infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP as an infection control and 24 hours after infection treated with recombinant human OSM (10 ng/mL) or vehicle control for 24 hours. α-SMA and β-tubulin as a loading control were detected by immunoblotting. One representative immunoblot of three independent experiments is shown. D: Basal expression of α-SMA gene (ACTA2) in LFs infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP was determined by quantitative RT-RCR (data are mean ± SE, n = 3). *P < 0.05.

Figure 6 Constitutively high level of STAT3 activity is associated with decreased expression of αv β3 integrins in primary human lung fibroblasts. A: Immunostaining of LF-pSTAT3high and LF-pSTAT3low for αv β3 and αv β5 integrins (green). Nuclei were counterstained with DAPI (blue). Images were acquired by confocal laser scanning microscopy (Scale bar: 47 μm). LF-pSTAT3low express higher levels of αv β3 and lower levels of αv β5 detected in the focal adhesion sites (intensive green dots on the cell surface) compared with LF-pSTAT3high. β3 integrin (ITGB3) (B) and β5 integrin (ITGB5) (C) mRNA expression was determined in LF-pSTAT3high and LF-pSTAT3low infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP as an infection control (*P < 0.05 compared with control, n = 3; †P < 0.05; ‡P < 0.001). D: Expression of β3 and β5 integrins was analyzed by immunoblotting using total protein extracts from parental nontransfected, STAT3C-transfected, and LacZ-transfected control LFs. β-Tubulin was used as a loading control. Two immunoblots from three independent experiments with two different control LF lines are shown. E: Using the same LFs as shown in B and C, production of β3 and β5 integrins in LFs infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP was determined by immunoblotting. Data are mean ± SE of β3/β5-integrin/β-tubulin ratios determined by a quantitative densitometry. *P < 0.05 compared with corresponding Ad-GFP controls (n = 3).

Figure 7 Basal levels of STAT3 activation is negatively correlated with Thy-1/CD90 cell surface expression on primary human LFs. A: Screening of 14 individual lines of LFs isolated from different compartments of the non-IPF lungs for Thy-1/CD90 cell surface expression determined by flow cytometry and basal levels of STAT3 activation revealed a negative correlation between the percentage of Thy-1/CD90 positive cells and the basal levels of Y705-pSTAT3 in the given cell population (P < 0.05). B: Expression of Thy-1/CD90 antigen on the cell surface of parental nontransfected control, stably STAT3C-transfected, and LacZ-transfected control LFs was determined by flow cytometry. Representative flow cytometry histograms from three independent experiments are shown. C: Effect of the STAT3 signaling inhibition by Ad-STAT3DN on basal and TGF-β1–mediated expression of Thy-1 mRNA in HFL-1 cells. Data are mean ± SE of the THY1 gene expression index determined in two independent experiments by quantitative RT-PCR performed in triplicates.

Figure 8 Blockade of STAT3 signaling in IPF LFs diminished cell responsiveness to exogenous TGF-β1 and apoptotic resistance. IPF LFs and control LFs were infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP as an infection control, and 24 hours later TGF-β1 was added to the cultures for 48 hours. α-SMA in total protein extracts was detected by immunoblotting. A: One representative immunoblot of four independent experiments is shown; total STAT3 protein is significantly elevated in Ad-STATDN IPF LFs and control LFs, confirming expression of the mutant protein in both cell lines. β-Tubulin was used as a loading control. B: Basal and TGF-β1–induced α-SMA protein in IPF LFs infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP as a control. Data are mean ± SE of percent changes of α-SMA/β-tubulin ratios. *P < 0.05 compared with Ad-GFP and Ad-STAT3DN without TGF-β1 (n = 4). C: α-SMA gene expression in the same IPF LFs described in B; data are mean ± SE of the α-SMA gene expression index determined in two different primary IPF LF cultures by quantitative RT-PCR performed in triplicate. *P < 0.05 compared with Ad-GFP and Ad-STAT3DN with and without TGF-β1 stimulation. D: IPF LFs and control LFs were infected with Ad-STAT3DN and Ad-GFP; 24 hours after infection all cells were treated with staurosporine in serum-free medium to induce apoptosis. Total procaspase-3 and cleaved fragments of activated caspase-3 were detected by immunoblotting. Densitometry ratios of cleaved/total procaspase-3 were calculated and considered as a caspase-3 activation index. Graph data are mean ± SE of percent changes of caspase-3 activation calculated independently for control LFs and IPF LFs. *P < 0.05 compared with Ad-GFP and Ad-STAT3WT (n = 3).
