Allergen-induced expression of IL-25 and IL-25 receptor in atopic asthmatic airways and late-phase cutaneous responses
چکیده انگلیسی

BackgroundIL-25 is thought to participate in allergic inflammation by propagating Th2-type responses.ObjectiveTo address the hypothesis that allergen provocation increases expression of IL-25 and its receptor IL-25R in the asthmatic bronchial mucosa and skin dermis of atopic subjects.MethodsSequential single and double immunostaining was used to evaluate the numbers and phenotypes of IL-25 and IL-25R immunoreactive cells in bronchial biopsies from mild atopic subjects with asthma (n = 10) before and 24 hours after allergen inhalation challenge and skin biopsies from atopic subjects (n = 10) up to 72 hours after allergen subepidermal injection.ResultsIL-25 immunoreactivity was expressed by a majority of epidermal cells in both organs at baseline and was not further augmented by challenge. IL-25R immunoreactive cells were rare in the epidermis before or after challenge. Allergen challenge was associated with significantly (P < .01) increased expression of IL-25 and IL-25R immunoreactivity in the submucosa of both organs. IL-25 immunoreactivity colocalized with eosinophils, mast cells, and endothelial cells, whereas IL-25R immunoreactivity colocalized with eosinophils, mast cells, endothelial cells, and T lymphocytes. In both organs, correlations were observed between increases in IL-25 expression and the magnitudes of the late-phase allergen-induced clinical responses.ConclusionAllergen provocation induces functionally relevant, increased expression of IL-25 and its receptor in the asthmatic bronchial mucosa and dermis of sensitized atopic subjects. In addition to T cells, eosinophils, mast cells, and endothelial cells are potential sources and targets of IL-25 in the course of allergic inflammation.
