Schistosoma mansoni-Mediated Suppression of Allergic Airway Inflammation Requires Patency and Foxp3+ Treg Cells
The continual rise of asthma in industrialised countries stands in strong contrast to the situation in developing lands. According to the modified Hygiene Hypothesis, helminths play a major role in suppressing bystander immune responses to allergens, and both epidemiological and experimental studies suggest that the tropical parasitic trematode Schistosoma mansoni elicits such effects. The focu...
متن کاملTreg-mediated suppression of atherosclerosis requires MYD88 signaling in DCs.
TLR activation on CD11c+ DCs triggers DC maturation, which is critical for T cell activation. Given the expansion of CD11c+ DCs during the progression of atherosclerosis and the key role of T cell activation in atherogenesis, we sought to understand the role of TLR signaling in CD11c+ DCs in atherosclerosis. To this end, we used a mouse model in which a key TLR adaptor involved in DC maturation...
متن کاملAdoptive Transfer of Induced-Treg Cells Effectively Attenuates Murine Airway Allergic Inflammation
Both nature and induced regulatory T (Treg) lymphocytes are potent regulators of autoimmune and allergic disorders. Defects in endogenous Treg cells have been reported in patients with allergic asthma, suggesting that disrupted Treg cell-mediated immunological regulation may play an important role in airway allergic inflammation. In order to determine whether adoptive transfer of induced Treg c...
متن کاملAbsence of Foxp3+ Regulatory T Cells during Allergen Provocation Does Not Exacerbate Murine Allergic Airway Inflammation
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a non-redundant role in maintenance of immune homeostasis. This is achieved by suppressing both, priming of naïve cells and effector cell functions. Although Tregs have been implicated in modulating allergic immune responses, their influence on distinct phases of development of allergies remains unclear. In this study, by using bacterial artificial chromosome (BA...
متن کاملResolution of Der p1-induced allergic airway inflammation is dependent on CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ regulatory cells.
Allergic airway inflammation (AAI) is characterized by airway hyperreactivity, eosinophilia, goblet cell hyperplasia, and elevated serum IgE, however, it is unclear what mediates natural resolution after cessation of allergen exposure. This is important because the outcome of subsequent allergen challenge may depend on the concurrent inflammatory milieu of the lung. Using a murine AAI model, we...
