Contribution of CCR4 and CCR8 to antigen-specific TH2 cell trafficking in allergic pulmonary inflammation
Open accessAbstract
Background Recruitment of antigen-specific T(H)2 cells into the lung is critical for the development of allergic airway inflammation. Although CCR4 and CCR8 are preferentially expressed on T(H)2 cells and CCR4, CCR8, and CXCR3 ligands are increased in asthma, the specific relative contribution of these receptors to antigen-specific T(H)2 cell trafficking into the allergic lung is not known. Objective To determine the relative contribution of the chemokine receptors CCR4, CCR8, and CXCR3 to antigen-specific T(H)2 cell trafficking in a murine model of allergic pulmonary inflammation. Methods We used adoptive transfer experiments to compare the trafficking of wild-type antigen-specific T(H)2 cells with antigen-specific T(H)2 cells deficient in CCR4, CCR8, or CXCR3. Results CCR4-deficient antigen-specific T(H)2 cells failed to traffic efficiently into the lung and the airways. In contrast, CCR8-deficient antigen-specific T(H)2 cells accumulated in these sites. Trafficking of CXCR3-deficient antigen-specific T(H)2 cells and CCR4-deficient and CCR8-deficient antigen-specific T(H)1 cells were comparable to their wild-type counterparts. Approximately 60% of IL-4-producing antigen-specific T cells expressed CCR4. Disruption of CCR4-mediated antigen-specific T(H)2 cell trafficking decreased the levels of T(H)2-type cytokines in the airways and reduced airway eosinophilia and mucus production. Conclusions Our study demonstrates that CCR4 is required for the efficient entry of antigen-specific T(H)2 cells into the lung and the airways in a murine model of allergic pulmonary 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.
