Interleukin-33 amplifies IgE synthesis and triggers mast cell degranulation via interleukin-4 in naïve mice1
BACKGROUND The regulation and function of IgE in healthy individuals and in antigen-naïve animals is not well understood. IL-33 administration increases serum IgE in mice with unknown mechanism. We tested the hypothesis that IL-33 provides an antigen-independent stimulus for IgE production and mast cell degranulation. METHODS IL-33 was administered to naïve wild-type (WT), nude and ST2(-/-) ,...
متن کاملIL-33 exacerbates antigen-induced arthritis by activating mast cells.
IL-33, a cytokine of the IL-1 family, is closely associated with type II T cell responses. Here, we report an unexpected proinflammatory role of IL-33 in inflammatory arthritis. IL-33 was expressed in synovial fibroblasts from patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Expression was markedly elevated in vitro by inflammatory cytokines. Mice lacking ST2, the IL-33 receptor alpha-chain, developed ...
متن کاملComplement anaphylatoxins as immune regulators in cancer
The role of the complement system in innate immunity is well characterized. However, a recent body of research implicates the complement anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a as insidious propagators of tumor growth and progression. It is now recognized that certain tumors elaborate C3a and C5a and that complement, as a mediator of chronic inflammation and regulator of immune function, may in fact foster ...
متن کاملInterleukin-33 as a Potential Therapeutic Target for Interstitial Cystitis: New Perspectives on Mast Cell Regulation
There are many problems still unresolved by modern medicine. In the field of voiding disorders, interstitial cystitis (IC) remains a representative disease yet to be conquered. The exact pathophysi-ologic mechanism of IC is not understood. Although several hypotheses have been proposed, including leaky epithelium, mast cell activation, and neurogenic inflammation, no theory has been clearly est...
متن کاملInterleukin-33 Primes Mast Cells for Activation by IgG Immune Complexes
Mast cells (MCs) are heterogeneous cells whose phenotype is modulated by signals received from the local microenvironment. Recent studies have identified the mesenchymal-derived cytokine IL-33 as a potent direct activator of MCs, as well as regulator of their effector phenotype, and have implicated this activity in the ability of mast cells to contribute to murine experimental arthritis. We exp...
