Type A human seasonal influenza (FluA) virus infection causes exacerbations of bronchial asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). l-carbocisteine, a mucolytic agent, reduces the frequency of common colds and exacerbations in COPD. However, the inhibitory effects of l-carbocisteine on FluA virus infection are uncertain. We studied the effects of l-carbocisteine on FluA virus infection in airway epithelial cells. Human tracheal epithelial cells were pretreated with l-carbocisteine… 
Levofloxacin Inhibits Rhinovirus Infection in Primary Cultures of Human Tracheal Epithelial Cells
TLDR
The results suggest that LVFX inhibits major-group rhinovirus infections in part by reducing ICAM-1 expression levels and the number of acidic endosomes, and may also modulate airway inflammation inrhinoviral infections.
Increased severity of 2009 pandemic influenza A virus subtype H1N1 infection in alveolar type II cells from patients with pulmonary fibrosis.
TLDR
It is hypothesized that the infection of ATII cells with A(H1N1) pdm09 is more severe for cells from pulmonary fibrotic lungs than for cells in diseased lungs, and viral titers in the culture supernatants are compared.
Effect of Influenza Virus Infection in a Murine Model of Asthma.
TLDR
In a murine model of asthma, influenza-induced airway inflammation appeared to be caused by simultaneous activation of neutrophilic and eosinophilic inflammation.

TLDR
Several drugs used for the treatment of bronchial asthma reduce viral and pro-inflammatory cytokine release from airway epithelial cells infected with viruses, and the modulation of viral infection-induced airway inflammation is reviewed.
Carbocisteine reduces virus-induced pulmonary inflammation in mice exposed to cigarette smoke.
TLDR
The findings suggest that S-CMC reduces pulmonary inflammation and mucus overproduction in mice exposed to CS after infection with FluV via the activation of Nrf2.
Serine Proteases and their Inhibitors in Human Airway Epithelial Cells: Effectson Influenza Virus Replication and Airway Serine Proteases and their Inhibitors in Human Airway Epithelial Cells: Effects on Influenza Virus Replication and Airway Inflammation
TLDR
Serine proteases expressed by human tracheal epithelial cells induce the proteolytic activation of influenza viruses and that serine protease inhibitors may reduce viral replication and the resultant production of inflammatory cytokines are suggested.
T cells and ILC2s are major effector cells in influenza‐induced exacerbation of allergic airway inflammation in mice
TLDR
It is found that both T cells and ILC2s contribute to influenza‐induced exacerbation of allergic airway inflammation, but with different kinetics.
N-Acetylcysteine: An Old Drug With Variable Anti-Influenza Properties
TLDR
N-acetylcysteine was shown to limit lung inflammation, damage associated with the virus, and limit viral growth, at least in vitro, however, the antiviral activity was highly variable depending on the influenza A strain.
Carbocisteine attenuates TNF-α-induced inflammation in human alveolar epithelial cells in vitro through suppressing NF-κB and ERK1/2 MAPK signaling pathways
TLDR
Carbocisteine effectively suppresses TNF-α-induced inflammation in A549 cells via suppressing NF-κB and ERK1/2 MAPK signaling pathways.
Redox Biology of Respiratory Viral Infections
TLDR
Changes in redox homeostasis in infected cells are one of the key events that is linked to infection with respiratory viruses and linked to inflammation and subsequent tissue damage.

Carbocisteine inhibits rhinovirus infection in human tracheal epithelial cells
The aim of the study was to examine the effects of a mucolytic drug, carbocisteine, on rhinovirus (RV) infection in the airways. Human tracheal epithelial cells were infected with a major-group RV,
Erythromycin inhibits rhinovirus infection in cultured human tracheal epithelial cells.
TLDR
The results suggest that erythromycin inhibits infection by the major RV subgroup by reducing ICAM-1 and infection by both RV subgroups by blocking the RV RNA entry into the endosomes.
Infection of a human respiratory epithelial cell line with rhinovirus. Induction of cytokine release and modulation of susceptibility to infection by cytokine exposure.
TLDR
This model is developed, for the first time, a model in which a pure respiratory epithelial cell population can be routinely infected by rhinovirus, and it is demonstrated that rh inovirus infection induced increased production of IL-8, IL-6, and GM-CSF from epithelial cells.
Bafilomycin A(1) inhibits rhinovirus infection in human airway epithelium: effects on endosome and ICAM-1.
TLDR
Bafilomycin A(1) may inhibit infection by RV14 by not only blocking RV RNA entry into the endosomes but also reducing ICAM-1 expression in the epithelial cells, which may modulate airway inflammation after RV infection.
Ambroxol suppresses influenza-virus proliferation in the mouse airway by increasing antiviral factor levels
TLDR
Although ambroxol had several negative effects on the host defence system, overall it strikingly increased the concentrations of suppressors of influenza-virus multiplication in the airway.
Human and avian influenza viruses target different cell types in cultures of human airway epithelium.
TLDR
It is demonstrated that influenza viruses enter the airway epithelium through specific target cells and that there were striking differences in this respect between human and avian viruses.
Fatal outcome of human influenza A (H5N1) is associated with high viral load and hypercytokinemia
TLDR
The observations indicate that high viral load, and the resulting intense inflammatory responses, are central to influenza H5N1 pathogenesis and the focus of clinical management should be on preventing this intense cytokine response, by early diagnosis and effective antiviral treatment.
Current and future antiviral therapy of severe seasonal and avian influenza
Human mucus protease inhibitor in airway fluids is a potential defensive compound against infection with influenza A and Sendai viruses.
TLDR
It is reported that human mucus protease inhibitor (MPI), a major inhibitor of granulocyte elastase in the lining fluids of the human respiratory tract, significantly inhibited proteolytic activation of the infectivity of influenza A and Sendai viruses by tryptase Clara in vitro and multi-cycles of mouse-adapted influenza A virus replication in rat lungs in vitro.
[Influenza virus receptors in the human airway].
TLDR
It is demonstrated that the epithelial cells in the upper respiratory tract of humans mainly possess sialic acid linked to galactose by alpha 2,6 linkages, a molecule preferentially recognized by human viruses, which is consistent with the observation that H5N1 viruses can be directly transmitted from birds to humans and cause serious lower respiratory tract damage in humans.
