Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the pathogenesis of intractable asthma, IL-33 has been known to be a key molecule bridging between the innate and acquired immune systems. In this study, we analyzed mechanisms underlying IL-33 production, and immunopharmacological modulation of IL-33. Allergic IL-33 production induced by an intratracheal antigen challenge in sensitized mice was mediated by neither mast cells nor Th2 cells. The administered antigen formed an immune complex with the antigen-specific IgG antibody, followed by incorporation into the alveolar macrophages through the cellular suface FcgRII/III, leading to the IL-33 production in the lung. The IL-33 production was sensitive to steroid anti-inflammatory drug treatment. On the other hand, as a new method for regulation of allergy, adoptive transfer of in vitro-differentiated IL-10-producing T cells effectively suppressed asthmatic responses in mice in vivo.
