Regulatory T cells and IL-10 in allergic inflammation
نویسنده
چکیده
Recent studies suggest that human regulatory T (T reg) cells protect against the development of allergic and asthmatic disease and that their function is impaired during active disease. Two new studies contribute to our understanding of the role that T reg cells play in the control of allergic airway disease in mice. However, these studies also highlight several outstanding questions in the field.

Inactivated Mycobacterium phlei inhalation ameliorates allergic asthma through modulating the balance of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T and Th17 cells in mice
Objective(s): Th2 response is related to the aetiology of asthma, but the underlying mechanism is unclear. To address this point, the effect of nebulized inhalation of inactivated Mycobacterium phlei on modulation of asthmatic airway inflammation was investigated. Materials and Methods: 24 male BALB/c mice were randomly divided into three groups: control group (Group A), asthma model group (G...

Background: Allergic Asthma is an inflammatory disease of the respiratory system that is well known by increased inflammatory cells in the airways and causes difficulty in respiration. The prevalence of allergic asthma is increasing worldwide, and it has become a significant cause of health challenge especially in developed countries. Inhaled β2-agonists and Inhaled or oral corticosteroids are ...
متن کاملIncrease in CD4+Foxp3+ Regulatory T cells and Amelioration of Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis in Mice Treated with IL-27
Background and purpose: In multiple sclerosis (MS) and its murine model, experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), chronic inflammation damages the myelin of central nervous system. Recently, interleukin-27 (IL-27) has been recognized as a feasible choice for treatment of autoimmune diseases such as MS due to its anti-inflammatory properties. However, the underlying mechanisms have not y...
متن کاملIL-10-producing type 1 regulatory T cells and allergy.
As an important subset of regulatory T (Treg) cells, IL-10-producing type 1 regulatory T cells (Tr1), have some different features to thymic-derived naturally occurring CD4+CD25+Foxp3+ Treg cells(nTreg cells). Similar to nTreg cells, Tr1 also play important roles in the control of allergic inflammation in several ways. There is a fine balance between Tr1 and Th2 responses in healthy subjects. S...
متن کاملAntigen specificity is not required for modulation of lung allergic responses by naturally occurring regulatory T cells.
Naturally occurring Foxp3(+)CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells isolated from lungs of naive mice regulate lung allergic airway hyperresponsiveness, inflammation, levels of Th2 cytokines, and mucus production. OVA-specific (alphabetaTCR(+)) CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells suppressed ragweed-induced airway hyperresponsiveness and inflammation as did anti-TCR-treated OVA-specific CD4(+)CD25(+) T cells, suggesting that A...

Background : Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of airway that often determined with degrees of inflammation, hypersensitivity, bronchial constriction and airway changes. Th1, Th2 and Th17 cells are the main cells involved in the pathophysiology of asthma. . Therefore, this study evaluated Th1, Th2, and Th17 cells functions by assessment the expression of INF-g, IL-4, and IL-17 g...
