IL-22BP is produced by eosinophils in human gut and blocks IL-22 protective actions during colitis

Abstract: Crohn's disease and ulcerative colitis, the two major forms of inflammatory bowel diseases (IBDs), are characterized by high levels of IL-22 production. Rodent studies revealed that this cytokine is protective during colitis but whether this is true in IBDs is unclear. We show here that levels of the soluble inhibitor of IL-22, interleukin 22-binding protein (IL-22BP), are significantly enhanced during IBDs owing to increased numbers of IL-22BP-producing eosinophils, that we unexpectedly identify as the most a… Show more

“…An exception to this is colonic DCs which produce high levels regardless of their maturation state [24]. Reports of other sources of IL-22BP include macrophages, epithelial cells and more recently, eosinophils [11, 19, 2527]. …”

“…Retinoic acid promotes secretion of interleukin 22 , known to promote epithelial cell proliferation and healing, restore tight junctions, and increase mucus production from goblet cells. 14 Vitamin A is required for normal immune function and for the development of immune tolerance in the intestine. 4 In human studies and in animal models, vitamin A deficiency increases gut permeability, which can be improved by vitamin A supplementation.…”

“…TRM amongst patients that developed acute GI GVHD IL-22 levels above the median was 46.9% compared to patients with IL-22 levels below the median of 20% at 1 year, p=0.6, Figure 1B. IL-22 binding protein (IL-22BP) is a soluble, potent inhibitor of IL-22 and is thought to regulate its downstream effects and has been found to be enhanced during active colitis of patients with IBD. (11,12) We hypothesized that IL-22BP levels would be elevated in patients with GI GVHD and that these levels would be inversely correlated with IL-22 levels. IL-22BP levels at day 30 post-transplant had a negative correlation with IL-22 levels at day 30 post-transplant (r=-0.2, p=0.03) but had no association with the development of GI GVHD.…”
