description <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p><it>Staphylococcus aureus </it>releases virulence factors (VF) that may impair the innate protective functions of airway cells. The aim of this study was to determine whether a long-acting β<sub>2 </sub>adrenergic receptor agonist (salmeterol hydroxynaphthoate, Sal) combined with a corticosteroid (fluticasone propionate, FP) was able to regulate ion content and cytokine expression by airway glandular cells after exposure to <it>S. aureus </it>supernatant.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>A human airway glandular cell line was incubated with <it>S. aureus </it>supernatant for 1 h and then treated with the combination Sal/FP for 4 h. The expression of actin and CFTR proteins was analyzed by immunofluorescence. Videomicroscopy was used to evaluate chloride secretion and X-ray microanalysis to measure the intracellular ion and water content. The pro-inflammatory cytokine expression was assessed by RT-PCR and ELISA.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>When the cells were incubated with <it>S. aureus </it>supernatant and then with Sal/FP, the cellular localisation of CFTR was apical compared to the cytoplasmic localisation in cells incubated with <it>S. aureus </it>supernatant alone. The incubation of airway epithelial cells with <it>S. aureus </it>supernatant reduced by 66% the chloride efflux that was fully restored by Sal/FP treatment. We also observed that Sal/FP treatment induced the restoration of ion (Cl and S) and water content within the intracellular secretory granules of airway glandular cells and reduced the bacterial supernatant-dependent increase of pro-inflammatory cytokines IL8 and TNFα.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>Our results demonstrate that treatment with the combination of a corticosteroid and a long-acting β<sub>2 </sub>adrenergic receptor agonist after bacterial infection restores the airway glandular cell function.
