High-affinity IgE receptors on dendritic cells exacerbate Th2-dependent inflammation.

چکیده
The IgE-mediated and Th2-dependent late-phase reaction remains a mechanistically enigmatic and daunting element of human allergic inflammation. In this study, we uncover the FcεRI on dendritic cells (DCs) as a key in vivo component of this form of allergy. Because rodent, unlike human, DCs lack FcεRI, this mechanism could be revealed only by using a new transgenic mouse model with human-like FcεRI expression on DCs. In the presence of IgE and allergen, FcεRI(+) DCs instructed naive T cells to differentiate into Th2 cells in vitro and boosted allergen-specific Th2 responses and Th2-dependent eosinophilia at the site of allergen exposure in vivo. Thus, FcεRI on DCs drives the cascade of pathogenic reactions linking the initial allergen capture by IgE with subsequent Th2-dominated T cell responses and the development of late-phase allergic tissue inflammation.

The roles of the prostaglandin D(2) receptors DP(1) and CRTH2 in promoting allergic responses.
Prostaglandin D(2) (PGD(2)) is produced by mast cells, Th2 lymphocytes and dendritic cells and has been detected in high concentrations at sites of allergic inflammation. PGD(2) exerts its inflammatory effects through high affinity interactions with the G protein coupled receptors DP(1) and chemoattractant-homologous receptor expressed on Th2 cells (CRTH2, also known as DP(2)). DP(1) and CRTH2 ...
متن کاملRole of IgE Low-Affinity Receptor (CD23) in Pathogenesis of Nasal Polyp
Background: Nasal polyps, a common clinical problem, are characterized by eosinophilic and mast cell inflammation. The role of allergy and IgE in pathogenesis of nasal polyps is still unclear. IgE receptors are important components of the immunological pathway in allergic and inflammatory diseases. Objective: To determine if the low affinity IgE receptor (CD23) is presented on nasal polyp tis...
متن کاملMutual Interaction of Basophils and T Cells in Chronic Inflammatory Diseases
Basophils are, together with mast cells, typical innate effector cells of allergen-induced IgE-dependent allergic diseases. Both cell types express the high-affinity receptor for IgE (FcεR1), release histamine, inflammatory mediators, and cytokines following FcεR1 cross-linking. Basophils are rare granulocytes in blood, lymphoid, and non-lymphoid tissues, and the difficulties to detect and isol...
متن کاملInduction of high-affinity IgE receptor on lung dendritic cells during viral infection leads to mucous cell metaplasia
Respiratory viral infections are associated with an increased risk of asthma, but how acute Th1 antiviral immune responses lead to chronic inflammatory Th2 disease remains undefined. We define a novel pathway that links transient viral infection to chronic lung disease with dendritic cell (DC) expression of the high-affinity IgE receptor (FcepsilonRIalpha). In a mouse model of virus-induced chr...
متن کاملSignaling through FcγRIII is required for optimal T helper type (Th)2 responses and Th2-mediated airway inflammation
Although inhibitory Fc gamma receptors have been demonstrated to promote mucosal tolerance, the role of activating Fc gamma receptors in modulating T helper type (Th)2-dependent inflammatory responses characteristic of asthma and allergies remains unclear. Here, we demonstrate that signaling via activating Fc gamma receptors in conjunction with Toll-like receptor 4 stimulation modulated cytokin...
