合成双调蛋白的致病性记忆Th2细胞诱导嗜酸性粒细胞分泌骨桥蛋白并促进气道纤维化

记忆T细胞提供持久的免疫保护,并且不同亚群记忆T细胞驱动慢性炎性疾病,例如哮喘。哮喘是一种慢性过敏性炎症性疾病,伴有气道重塑,包括纤维化改变。诱导气道纤维化改变的免疫机制仍然未知。我们发现白细胞介素-33(IL-33)通过IL-33受体ST2hi记忆T辅助细胞2(Th2)细胞,增强了双调蛋白的合成。双调蛋白-表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)介导的信号传导直接将嗜酸性粒细胞重编程为炎症状态,骨桥蛋白(一种关键的促纤维化免疫调节蛋白)表达增高。合成IL-5的记忆Th2细胞和合成双调蛋白的记忆Th2细胞似乎通过共同作用促进了肺纤维化。来自嗜酸性粒细胞性慢性鼻窦炎患者的息肉分析显示,纤维化伴有合成双调蛋白的CRTH2hiCD161hiCD45RO+CD4+ Th2细胞和合成骨桥蛋白的嗜酸性粒细胞的积聚。因此,IL-33-双调蛋白-骨桥蛋白轴诱导嗜酸性粒细胞性气道炎症中的纤维化反应,并且是治疗由慢性过敏性疾病诱导的纤维化的潜在靶标。。

Summary
Memory T cells provide long-lasting protective immunity, and distinct subpopulations of memory T cells drive chronic inflammatory diseases such as asthma. Asthma is a chronic allergic inflammatory disease with airway remodeling including fibrotic changes. The immunological mechanisms that induce airway fibrotic changes remain unknown. We found that interleukin-33 (IL-33) enhanced amphiregulin production by the IL-33 receptor, ST2hi memory T helper 2 (Th2) cells. Amphiregulin-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR)-mediated signaling directly reprogramed eosinophils to an inflammatory state with enhanced production of osteopontin, a key profibrotic immunomodulatory protein. IL-5-producing memory Th2 cells and amphiregulin-producing memory Th2 cells appeared to cooperate to establish lung fibrosis. The analysis of polyps from patients with eosinophilic chronic rhinosinusitis revealed fibrosis with accumulation of amphiregulin-producing CRTH2hiCD161hiCD45RO+CD4+ Th2 cells and osteopontin-producing eosinophils. Thus, the IL-33-amphiregulin-osteopontin axis directs fibrotic responses in eosinophilic airway inflammation and is a potential target for the treatment of fibrosis induced by chronic allergic disorders.
