Bioinformatics analysis of G protein subunit gamma transduction protein 2-autophagy axis in CD11b+ dendritic cells as a potential regulator to skew airway neutrophilic inflammation in asthma endotypes.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Asthma is a heterogeneous inflammatory disease with two main clinical endotypes: type 2 (T2) high and low asthma. The plasticity and autophagy in dendritic cells (DCs) influence T helper (Th)2 or Th17 differentiation to regulate asthma endotypes. Enhanced autophagy in DCs fosters Th2 differentiation in allergic environments, while reduced autophagy favors Th17 cell differentiation in sensitized and infected environments. Autophagy regulation in DCs involves interaction with various pathways like G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR), or phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway. However, specific molecules within DCs influencing asthma endotypes remain unclear.
