Abstract

The initiation and maintenance of airway immune responses in Th2 type allergic diseases such as asthma are dependent on the specific activation of local airway dendritic cells (DCs). The cytokine microenvironment, produced by local cells, influences the recruitment of specific subsets of immature DCs and their subsequent maturation. In the airway, DCs reside in close proximity to airway epithelial cells (AECs). We examined the ability of primary culture human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) to synthesize and secrete the recently described CC-chemokine, MIP-3α/CCL20. MIP-3α/CCL20 is the unique chemokine ligand for CCR6, a receptor with a restricted distribution. MIP-3α/CCL20 induces selective migration of DCs because CCR6 is expressed on some immature DCs but not on CD14+ DC precursors or mature DCs. HBECs were stimulated with pro-inflammatory cytokines tumor necrosis factor-α and interleukin (IL)-1β or, because of their critical role in allergic diseases, IL-4 and IL-13. Cells were also exposed to small size-fractions of ambient particulate matter. Each of these stimuli induced MIP-3α/CCL20 gene and protein expression. Moreover, these agents upregulated mitogen-activated protein kinase pathways in HBECs. Inhibition of the ERK1/2 pathway or p38 reduced cytokine-induced MIP-3α/CCL20 expression. These data suggest a mechanism by which AEC may facilitate recruitment of DC subsets to the airway.

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.
