EPAC and PKA inhibit the human airway smooth muscle induced by a cigarette smoke extract (CSE) by blocking the activation of the NF-κB and ERK, respectively, and by releasing neutrophil chemokine IL-8, which together exert anti-inflammatory effects. 101 In COPD, increases in cAMP levels, activation of PKA and enhanced protein phosphorylation have the potential to reduce inflammation and immunomodulation, relax airway smooth muscle, inhibit chemotaxis and abnormal release of inflammatory and cytotoxic mediators, and reduce proliferation and migration of inflammatory cells. 135 The PI3K/Akt signalling pathway plays an important role in COPD by regulating inflammatory cell activation, inflammatory mediator release and airway remodelling. ./cache/cord-034294-ti1cc24m.txt ./txt/cord-034294-ti1cc24m.txt
