英文摘要
Project summary
Type-2 inflammation, characterized in part by the production of cytokines IL-5 and IL-13, is a hallmark feature
of asthma. Recently, the innate and adaptive immune systems have been shown to play critical roles in
coordinating the development and propagation of type-2 inflammation in the airways. Previous discoveries by
our group and others have revealed that secreted PLA2 (sPLA2) activity is increased in the airways of
asthmatics, with much of the observed sPLA2 activity attributed to one member in particular, sPLA2 group X
(sPLA2-X), which is primarily expressed by epithelial cells and macrophages. Enzymatic activity of sPLA2-X
contributes to the pool of eicosanoids in the airways, but the function of sPLA2s beyond their enzymatic activity
is not well understood. Because of the established involvement of sPLA2-X in settings of human asthma, we
seek to better define the function of sPLA2-X during allergic inflammation of the airways using in vivo models of
experimental asthma. Our preliminary data suggest that 1) genetic ablation of sPLA2-X protects against the
development of a type-2 immune response and 2) sPLA2-X given as an adjuvant promotes both innate and
adaptive components of type-2 inflammation. In this application, we seek to uncover the mechanism by which
sPLA2-X initiates a type-2 immune response in the airways. Our primary hypothesis is that sPLA2-X acts as
an adjuvant to enhance type 2 immune responses through the release of epithelial derived cytokines
including IL-33 and polarization of ILC2s. We further postulate that TGM2 serves to augment the
function of sPLA2-X during the development of allergic inflammation. In Aim 1, we focus on the
importance of IL-33 in driving type-2 inflammation and ILC2 polarization using a sPLA2-X/OVA model of
experimental asthma. Using murine and human airway epithelial cells, we examine the specific contribution of
epithelial sPLA2-X function in the release and expression of epithelial-derived cytokines that promote type-2
inflammation. In Aim 2 we examine the involvement of TGM2 in the development of type-2 inflammation and
whether TGM2 acts by regulating sPLA2-X activity. Completion of these studies will provide a more thorough
understanding of sPLA2-X function in allergic lung disease and further validation of sPLA2-X as a novel
therapeutic target in settings of asthma.
