Environmental allergens induce allergic inflammation through proteolytic maturation of IL-33

Abstract: Allergic inflammation has crucial roles in allergic diseases such as asthma. It is therefore important to understand why and how the immune system responds to allergens. Here we found that full-length interleukin 33 (IL-33), an alarmin cytokine with critical roles in type 2 immunity and asthma, functioned as a protease sensor that detected proteolytic activities associated with various environmental allergens across four kingdoms, including fungi, house dust mites, bacteria and pollens. When exposed to allerge… Show more

“…Here, for the first time to our knowledge, we presented the complementary phenomenon, in which the mouse IL‐33 activates human basophils. Of note, mouse IL‐33 was found to undergo a rapid degradation following cleavage while the human cleaved product remains stable .…”

“…After cell injury or cellular activation through ATP signaling, these cells promptly release IL‐33; moreover, under certain conditions, NKT cells and alveolar macrophages might also constitute sources of IL‐33 . Released full‐length IL‐33 is rapidly cleaved by protease derived from neutrophils, mast cells, or an environmental allergen itself, with the mature form of IL‐33 being 30‐fold more potent for activation of ILC2s than the full‐length IL‐33 . IL‐33 binds to a heterodimeric receptor formed by T1/ST2 and the IL‐1 receptor accessory protein (IL‐1RAcP), which leads to activation of NF‐κB and MAPK (ERK, p38, JNK) signaling pathways via MyD88 .…”

“…15,18,26 This notion is also borne out in our results using the CXCR2 inhibitor DF2156A, which significantly but not completely reversed IL-33-mediated mortality and weight loss in the DENV2infected mice. 33,34 Our analysis was carried out on days 4 and 6 after infection. Previous studies have shown that IL-33 directly increases CD69 expression in CD8 + T cells and NK cells, and enhances IFN-c production by NK cells.…”
