Mucin hypersecretion is a key pathological feature of inflammatory respiratory diseases. Previous studies have reported that acids (gastroesophageal reflux or environmental exposure) induce many respiratory symptoms and are implicated in the pathophysiology of obstructive airway diseases. To understand these mechanisms, we measured acid-induced mucin secretion in human bronchial epithelial cells. In the present study, acid induced inward currents of transient receptor potential vanilloid (TRPV)1 and mucin 5AC (MUC5AC) secretion dose dependently, which were inhibited by TRPV1 antagonist capsazepine in a concentration-dependent manner. TRPV1 agonist capsaicin mediated a concentration-dependent increase in TRPV1 inward currents and MUC5AC secretion. Furthermore, capsaicin enhanced acid-induced TRPV1 inward currents and MUC5AC secretion. Acid-induced Ca2+ influx was prevented by capsazepine dose dependently and enhanced by capsaicin. Pretreatment only with capsaicin also increased the Ca2+ concentration in a concentration-dependent manner. These data suggest that pharmacological inhibition of calcium-permeable TRPV1 receptors could be used to prevent acid-induced mucin secretion, thereby providing a potential mechanism to reduce their toxicity.
