Endogenous IL-11 signaling is essential in Th2- and IL-13-induced inflammation and mucus production.
IL-11 and IL-11 receptor (R)alpha are induced by Th2 cytokines. However, the role(s) of endogenous IL-11 in antigen-induced Th2 inflammation has not been fully defined. We hypothesized that IL-11, signaling via IL-11Ralpha, plays an important role in aeroallergen-induced Th2 inflammation and mucus metaplasia. To test this hypothesis, we compared the responses induced by the aeroallergen ovalbum...
متن کاملIL-4 Can Inhibit IL-17 Production in Collagen Induced Arthritis
Background: IL-4 is a cytokine that induces differentiation of naive helper T cells into Th2 cells. Once activated by IL-4, Th2 cells subsequently produce additional IL-4. Objective: To examine the effect of IL-4 on IL-17 production and its effect in Collagen- Induced Arthritis (CIA) mice. Method: In this study, a chicken collagen-II-induced experimental arthritis (CIA) model was used in DBA/1 ...
متن کاملLLL12 inhibits endogenous and exogenous interleukin-6-induced STAT3 phosphorylation in human pancreatic cancer cells.
Pancreatic cancer is one of the most serious types of cancer, with a five-year survival rate at only 6%. There is a critical need to develop more effective treatments for pancreatic cancer. Growing evidence shows that chronic inflammation plays a crucial role in tumor initiation and progression. Here we demonstrated that the endogenous expression of the inflammatory cytokine interleukin-6 (IL-6...
متن کاملIL-11 selectively inhibits aeroallergen-induced pulmonary eosinophilia and Th2 cytokine production.
IL-11 is a pleiotropic cytokine that induces tissue remodeling with subepithelial fibrosis when expressed in the airway. Its effects on the Th2-dominated airway inflammation that is characteristic of asthma, however, are poorly understood. To characterize the effects of IL-11 on Th2 tissue inflammation, we compared the inflammatory responses elicited by OVA in sensitized mice in which IL-11 is ...
متن کاملNotch Ligand DLL4 Alleviates Allergic Airway Inflammation via Induction of a Homeostatic Regulatory Pathway
Notch is a pleiotropic signaling family that has been implicated in pathogenesis of allergic airway diseases; however, the distinct function of individual Notch ligands remains elusive. We investigated whether Notch ligands, Jagged1 and DLL4, exert differential effects in OVA-induced allergic asthma. We found that whilst Jagged1 inhibition mitigated Th2-dominated airway inflammation, blockage o...
