Chronic pulmonary diseases, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and asthma, are major causes of death and reduced quality of life. Characteristic of chronic pulmonary disease is excessive lung inflammation that occurs in response to exposure to inhaled irritants, chemicals, and allergens. Chronic inflammation leads to remodeling of the airways that includes excess mucus secretion, proliferation of smooth muscle cells, increased deposition of extracellular matrix proteins and fibrosis. Protein kinases have been implicated in mediating inflammatory signals and airway remodeling associated with reduced lung function in chronic pulmonary disease. This review will highlight the role of protein kinases in the lung during chronic inflammation and examine opportunities to use protein kinase inhibitors for the treatment of chronic pulmonary diseases.
