IL‐33‐activated dendritic cells are critical for allergic airway inflammation

Abstract

IL‐33, a new member of the IL‐1 family cytokine, is involved in Th2‐type responses in a wide range of diseases and signals through the ST2 receptor expressed on many immune cells. Since the effects of IL‐33 on DCs remain controversial, we investigated the ability of IL‐33 to modulate DC functions in vitro and in vivo. Here, we report that IL‐33 activates myeloid DCs to produce IL‐6, IL‐1b, TNF, CCL17 and to express high levels of CD40, CD80 OX40L and CCR7. Importantly, IL‐33‐activated DCs prime naive lymphocytes to produce the Th2 cytokines IL‐5 and IL‐13, but not IL‐4. In vivo, IL‐33 exposure induces DC recruitment and activation in the lung. Using an OVA‐induced allergic lung inflammation model, we demonstrate that the reduced airway inflammation in ST2‐deficient mice correlates with the failure in DC activation and migration to the draining LN. Finally, we show that adoptive transfer of IL‐33‐activated DCs exacerbates lung inflammation in a DC‐driven model of allergic airway inflammation. These data demonstrate for the first time that IL‐33 activates DCs during antigen presentation and thereby drives a Th2‐type response in allergic lung inflammation .

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
