    Fig. 1. <t>β2AR</t> agonism stimulates H2O2 production in human airway epithelial cells in a NOX dependent manner. Agonism of β2AR with increasing ISO concentrations initiates concentration-dependent increases in real-time H2O2 production. (A) ISO (10 µM) significantly increases H2O2 production (p < 0.001 via One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc) versus vehicle-control in CALU-3, A549, SAEC and A-SAEC, as detected by the extracellular H2O2-selective probe Amplex Red (n = 3). H2O2 (0.1 µM) was used as an internal positive control to ensure probe viability (data not shown). Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test and * ** denotes p < 0.001 versus the vehicle-control condition. (B-D) ISO (1 µM) significantly increased (p < 0.001) H2O2 production in CALU3 (B), SAEC (C) and A-SAEC (D) cells and pretreatment with the selective NOX inhibitor, VAS2870 (5 µM; 30 min) significantly attenuated real- time H2O2 generation in CALU-3 (p < 0.05 via ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc) and SAEC (p < 0.001 via ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc) (n = 3). The ISO-induced real-time H2O2 generation remained unaltered in the presence of VAS2870 in A-SAEC (n = 3). Compared to the ISO-alone condition, AUC analysis reveals a 30.7% and 148% reduction in ISO-induced real-time H2O2 generation in the presence of VAS2870 in CALU-3 (B, lower), and SAEC (C, lower), respectively (n = 3). Values represent average of three independent experiments (n = 3), performed in triplicates, vehicle control (unstimulated) values were subtracted from each data point for baseline correction. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test and * * denotes p < 0.01, and * ** denotes p < 0.001 versus the vehicle-control condition, while # denotes p < 0.05, ### denotes p < 0.001, and #### denotes p < 0.0001 versus the respective ISO-treated condition. (E) ISO (10 µM) significantly increases H2O2 production versus vehicle-control in CALU-3, SAEC and A-SAEC, as detected by the intracellular H2O2-selective probe AbGreen. Cells were pretreated with VAS2870 (VAS; 5 µM) or the β2AR inverse agonist ICI-118,551 (ICI; 10 µM) for 30 min, both of which significantly inhibit fluorescent intensity, demonstrating β2AR- and NOX-dependent H2O2 generation. H2O2 (0.1 µM) served as positive control in each experiment. Graphs represent quantified fluorescent intensity from 4X images from three independent experiments (n = 3) performed in triplicates.

(A) ISO (10 µM) significantly increases H2O2 production (p < 0.001 via One-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc) versus vehicle-control in CALU-3, A549, SAEC and A-SAEC, as detected by the extracellular H2O2-selective probe Amplex Red (n = 3). H2O2 (0.1 µM) was used as an internal positive control to ensure probe viability (data not shown). Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test and * ** denotes p < 0.001 versus the vehicle-control condition. (B-D) ISO (1 µM) significantly increased (p < 0.001) H2O2 production in CALU3 (B), SAEC (C) and A-SAEC (D) cells and pretreatment with the selective NOX inhibitor, VAS2870 (5 µM; 30 min) significantly attenuated real- time H2O2 generation in CALU-3 (p < 0.05 via ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc) and SAEC (p < 0.001 via ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc) (n = 3). The ISO-induced real-time H2O2 generation remained unaltered in the presence of VAS2870 in A-SAEC (n = 3). Compared to the ISO-alone condition, AUC analysis reveals a 30.7% and 148% reduction in ISO-induced real-time H2O2 generation in the presence of VAS2870 in CALU-3 (B, lower), and SAEC (C, lower), respectively (n = 3). Values represent average of three independent experiments (n = 3), performed in triplicates, vehicle control (unstimulated) values were subtracted from each data point for baseline correction. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test and * * denotes p < 0.01, and * ** denotes p < 0.001 versus the vehicle-control condition, while # denotes p < 0.05, ### denotes p < 0.001, and #### denotes p < 0.0001 versus the respective ISO-treated condition. (E) ISO (10 µM) significantly increases H2O2 production versus vehicle-control in CALU-3, SAEC and A-SAEC, as detected by the intracellular H2O2-selective probe AbGreen. Cells were pretreated with VAS2870 (VAS; 5 µM) or the β2AR inverse agonist ICI-118,551 (ICI; 10 µM) for 30 min, both of which significantly inhibit fluorescent intensity, demonstrating β2AR- and NOX-dependent H2O2 generation. H2O2 (0.1 µM) served as positive control in each experiment. Graphs represent quantified fluorescent intensity from 4X images from three independent experiments (n = 3) performed in triplicates. Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test and * denotes p < 0.05, and * * denotes p < 0.01 versus the vehicle-control condition, while # denotes p < 0.05, and ## denotes p < 0.01 versus the respective ISO-treated condition, as shown.

    Fig. 2. Exogenous H2O2 and β-receptor agonism induces β2AR Cys-S-sulfination in human SAEC. (A) The ability of acute agonism of β2AR to induce cysteine-S- sulfination was assessed via the clickable S-sulfinic acid-selective probe DiaAlk. SAEC or A-SAEC (4 ×105 cells/well) were seeded in 6-well plates and agonized with (A) ISO (10 μM) for 5–60 min (n = 3) or (B) salbutamol (albuterol; SAL) (10 μM) for 15 or 60 min (n = 3). β2AR cysteine-S-sulfination was assessed by β2AR immunoprecipitation and selective labeling with 1 mM DiaAlk, followed by conjugated with biotin utilizing click chemistry, and detection via streptavidin-HRP, as discussed in the materials and methods. Both ISO (A) and SAL (B) significantly increased β2AR hyperoxidation to cysteine-S-sulfinic acids (upper panels). The amount of β2AR (middle panels) within each reaction is shown as an input control and β-actin (lower panels) is utilized to denote equal protein input and loading. (C) The effects of chronic ISO agonism or H2O2 were also assessed and cells were treated every 12 h with for seven days with either ISO (10 µM) or H2O2 (10 µM). The media was replenished every 2–3 days to prevent nutrient depletion-mediated starvation. Both SAEC and A-SAEC exhibit significantly elevated DiaAlk-biotin labeled β2AR (upper panels), indicative of cysteine-S-sulfination, following the seven-day treatment paradigm with both ISO and H2O2. The amount of β2AR (middle panels) within each reaction is shown as an input control and β-actin (lower panels) is utilized to denote equal protein input and loading.

(A) Real-time cAMP was assessed in the presence of various H2O2 concentrations introduced 10 min (arrows) following agonism with ISO. While H2O2 concentrations spanning 0.1–1 µM enhanced cAMP production, higher concentrations decreased it, and the 1 mM H2O2 concentration significantly inhibited ISO-induced cAMP production in both (A) SAEC (p < 0.001) and A-SAEC (p < 0.001).

(B) To ensure that the effect of 1 mM H2O2 was not due to induction of cell death, cell viability was assessed 4 h following agonism with ISO via trypan blue exclusion and there was no significant effect of the 1 mM H2O2 treatment on cell viability in either SAEC or A-SAEC (pooled data from n = 3). (C) The effects of 1 mM H2O2 were also assessed on variable ISO concentrations (0.1 μM - 100 μM) and in both SAEC and A-SAEC, 1 mM H2O2 added 10 min (arrows) following agonism with ISO abolished the cAMP-generating effects of all concentrations of ISO (p < 0.0001 for both cell types, one-way ANOVA, n = 3), and this effect remained for the 4 h observation duration (not shown).

(E) Given that these results reflect effects of H2O2 treatment following agonism with ISO, we also assessed the outcomes of ISO- induced cAMP formation in cells pre-incubated with H2O2 (1 mM) for 1 min prior to agonism with ISO, as we previously showed this was enough to induce cysteine- S-sulfenation of β2AR [18,28]. In this case, H2O2 also significantly inhibited cAMP formation in both SAEC (p < 0.0001) and A-SAEC (p < 0.0001), with no sig nificant effect on cell viability (F) (n = 3).

(A-B) Asthma-derived SAEC exhibit significantly higher cAMP formation (p < 0.001) compared to healthy SAEC upon stimulation with (A) forskolin (FSK) or (B) ISO. Each point in the graph represents mean of 3 independent experiments performed in triplicates (n = 3). Statistical analysis was performed using one-way ANOVA with Tukey’s post-hoc test and significance denoted as * * p < 0.01 or * ** p < 0.001 versus healthy SAEC. Given the variable concentrations of cAMP in each cell type, data are normalized to a percentage of the unstimulated SAEC response ± SD. (C, upper) Over a 4 h time period, both basal and ISO-induced (1 µM) real-time cAMP formation were significantly elevated in A-SAEC compared to healthy SAEC (p < 0.001, two-way ANOVA). (C, lower) AUC analysis over the entire time-frame also revealed significantly higher real-time cAMP formation in A-SAEC vs SAEC (p < 0.001, two-way ANOVA). (D-E) Agonism of β2AR with ISO (1 µM) induces significant increases in real-time cAMP formation in (D) SAEC and (E) A-SAEC, and this effect was abolished (p < 0.0001) in the presence of β2AR inverse agonist, ICI-118,551 (100 μM) introduced 10 min (arrows) following agonism with ISO, indicating that the effects seen are β2AR specific. Notably, basal cAMP formation in the absence of agonist was also significantly reduced by ICI-118,551 treatment, demonstrating a significant contribution of β2AR to constitutive cAMP signaling in both SAEC and A-SAEC.
