项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Allergies affect over one third of the world's population, and the prevalence of asthma is estimated at 300 million patients worldwide 17. In the US alone, asthma prevalence is 8-10% with a subset of 10% who suffer from severe disease. Allergen-specific IgE is a major mediator of severe allergic conditions and asthma exacerbations, but little is understood about the biology of human IgE in these patients. The presence of human IgE long-lived plasma cells is a matter of controversy, since mouse models show little evidence of IgE BM resident plasma cells fueling debate that IgE levels are maintained only by ongoing replenishment from short-lived ASC. In my laboratory, we have identified a new LLPC subset in the human bone marrow (BM) compartment and characterized 5 novel circulating ASC populations. In this application, we will demonstrate the presence of human IgE BM LLPC in allergic patients and understand the cellular origins of allergen-specific IgE responses during acute recall responses (after natural allergen exposures) in blood, bone marrow and nasal polyps.

描述（由申请人提供）：过敏会影响全球三分之一的人口，哮喘的患病率估计为全球3亿例患者17。仅在美国，哮喘患病率是8-10％，其中10％的患病患者患有严重疾病。过敏原特异性IgE是严重过敏状况和哮喘恶化的主要介体，但对这些患者的人类IgE的生物学几乎没有理解。人类IgE长寿命的浆细胞的存在是一个争议的问题，因为小鼠模型几乎没有证据表明IgE BM驻留的浆细胞为辩论而言，仅通过短暂的ASC进行了持续的补充来维持IgE水平。在我的实验室中，我们确定了人类骨髓（BM）室中的一个新的LLPC子集，并表征了5个新型循环ASC种群。在此应用中，我们将在过敏患者中证明人IgE BM LLPC的存在，并了解在血液，骨髓和鼻息中在急性回忆反应（天然过敏原暴露后）期间过敏原特异性IgE反应的细胞起源。
