Abstract

Respiratory Mycoplasma pneumoniae (Mp) infection is involved in asthma pathobiology, but whether the established allergic airway inflammation compromises lung innate immunity and subsequently predisposes patients with asthma to Mp infection remains unknown. To test whether the established allergic airway inflammation compromises host innate immunity (e.g., Toll-like receptor 2 [TLR2]) to hinder the elimination of Mp from the lungs. We used mouse models of ovalbumin (OVA)-induced allergic airway inflammation with an ensuing Mp infection, and cultures of mouse primary lung dendritic cells (DCs) and bone marrow-derived DCs. Lung Mp clearance in allergic mice and TLR2 and IL-6 levels in lung cells, including DCs as well as cultured primary lung DCs and bone marrow-derived DCs, were assessed. The established OVA-induced allergic airway inflammation, or the prominent Th2 cytokines IL-4 and IL-13, inhibited TLR2 expression and IL-6 production in lung cells, including lung DCs, and eventually led to impaired host defense against Mp. Studies in IL-6 knockout mice indicated that IL-6 directly promoted Mp clearance from the lungs. IL-4- and IL-13-induced suppression of TLR2 was mediated by inhibiting nuclear factor-kappaB activation throu...Continue Reading

Asthma

This feed focuses in Asthma in which your airways narrow and swell. This can make breathing difficult and trigger coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath.

Allergy and Asthma

Allergy and asthma are inflammatory disorders that are triggered by the activation of an allergen-specific regulatory t cell. These t cells become activated when allergens are recognized by allergen-presenting cells. Here is the latest research on allergy and asthma.
