    While epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays a pivotal role in the repair process of epithelial cells, it is also involved in the overproduction of mucus and goblet cell hyperplasia (GCH), which occurs in chronic airway diseases such as asthma. Among the EGFR ligands, transforming growth factor (TGF)-alpha is thought to be the most important in the synthesis of mucus. Pro-TGF-alpha is cleaved to give an active form by members of the matrix metalloproteinases (MMP)/a disintegrin and metalloproteinases (ADAM) family. Thus MMP/ADAM inhibitors might prevent GCH by inhibiting transactivation of EGFR. Upon stimulation of differentiating normal human bronchial epithelial (NHBE) cells by IL-13, GCH was induced. The mucin genes MUC5AC, MUC5B, and MUC2 were upregulated whereas the expression of ciliated cell markers was greatly repressed. GM6001, a broad-spectrum inhibitor for MMP/ADAM, inhibited IL-13-induced mucin gene expression and mucus production as measured by periodic acid-Schiff staining. This was accompanied by an inhibition of TGF-alpha release. These results suggest that MMP/ADAMs play a pivotal role in the development of GCH in lung epithelial cells.
