Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We analyzed the role of IL-22 in regulating allergic airway inflammation. We show that allergic airway inflammation and Th2 and Th17 cytokine production upon intratracheal administration of house dust mite extract (HDM) were exacerbated in IL-22-deficient mice. We also found that IL-22 induces Reg3g production from lung epithelial cells through STAT3 activation and that neutralization of Reg3g significantly exacerbates HDM-induced eosinophilic airway inflammation and Th2 cytokine induction. Moreover, EXTL3, a functional Reg3g binding protein, is expressed in lung epithelial cells, and intratracheal administration of recombinant Reg3g suppresses HDM-induced TSLP and IL-33 expression and accumulation of type 2 innate lymphoid cells in the lung. Taken together, these results suggest that IL-22 induces Reg3g production from lung epithelial cells and inhibits the development of HDM-induced allergic airway inflammation possibly by inhibiting cytokine production from lung epithelial cells.
