Epithelial Interleukin-1 Receptor-Like-1 Activation Is Contingent on Interleukin-33 Isoforms and Asthma-Related Receptor Variation.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

The interleukin-33/interleukin-1 receptor-like-1 (IL-33/IL1RL1) signalling pathway is implicated in asthma pathogenesis, with IL1RL1 nonsynonymous genetic polymorphisms associated with disease risk. We aimed to determine these variants' effect on IL1RL1 signalling induced by different IL33 isoforms thought to be elevated in the asthmatic airway.

Method

In a project funded by GSK plc, which has developed an IL-33 receptor inhibitor for asthma treatment, human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells expressing secreted embryonic alkaline phosphatase (SEAP) driven by a nuclear factor kappa-beta (NF-κB) promoter, were transiently transfected with IL1RL1, containing one of four extracellular and Toll/interleukin 1 receptor (TIR) domain haplotypes. Cells were stimulated w
