TIM-3 is not essential for development of airway inflammation induced by house dust mite antigens
BACKGROUND T cell immunoglobulin domain and mucin domain-containing molecule 3 (TIM-3), which is preferentially expressed on Th1 cells rather than Th2 cells, is considered to be a negative regulator of Th1 cell function. This suggests that TIM-3 indirectly enhances Th2-type immune responses by suppressing Th1 cell function. METHODS To investigate TIM-3's possible involvement in Th2-type acute...
متن کاملTGF-β Regulates House Dust Mite-Induced Allergic Airway Inflammation But Not Airway Remodeling
“At a Glance Commentary” The current dogma, based largely on indirect evidence, is that TGF-β plays a prominent role in the development of airway remodeling, a recognized feature of chronic allergic asthma. This research contributes to our understanding of the mechanisms regulating inflammation and remodeling in chronic allergic asthma, and suggests that therapeutic strategies to prevent remode...
متن کاملTransforming growth factor-beta regulates house dust mite-induced allergic airway inflammation but not airway remodeling.
RATIONALE It is now believed that both chronic airway inflammation and remodeling contribute significantly to airway dysfunction and clinical symptoms in allergic asthma. Transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta is a powerful regulator of both the tissue repair and inflammatory responses, and numerous experimental and clinical studies suggest that it may play an integral role in the pathogenesis o...
متن کاملRoles of Bronchopulmonary C-fibers in airway Hyperresponsiveness and airway remodeling induced by house dust mite
BACKGROUND Asthma is characterized by chronic airway inflammation, airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR), and airway remodeling. While exposure of house dust mites (HDM) is a common cause of asthma, the pathogenesis of the HDM-induced asthma is not fully understood. Bronchopulmonary C-fibers (PCFs) contribute to the neurogenic inflammation, viral infection induced-persistent AHR, and ovalbumin induc...
متن کاملProtective Roles for RGS2 in a Mouse Model of House Dust Mite-Induced Airway Inflammation
The GTPase-accelerating protein, regulator of G-protein signalling 2 (RGS2) reduces signalling from G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) that signal via Gαq. In humans, RGS2 expression is up-regulated by inhaled corticosteroids (ICSs) and long-acting β2-adrenoceptor agonists (LABAs) such that synergy is produced in combination. This may contribute to the superior clinical efficacy of ICS/LABA th...
