Sex-dependent influence of LMAN1 on allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness.

ABSTRACT: Allergic asthma is a chronic inflammatory disease of the airways characterized by a type 2-high adaptive immune response towards common aeroantigens such as dust mite, pollen, and animal dander. Despite the advances made toward translation of various biologics into the clinic, the limited efficacy of these therapies in certain populations, combined with the ineligibility of some patients for treatment (clinically or economically), have led to the continued need for the development of more widely effective allergic asthma therapies. Our lab previously identified lectin mannose-binding 1 (LMAN1) as a novel receptor for house dust mite (HDM) and showed that in vitro, LMAN1 downregulated inflammatory NF-κB signaling in DCs in response to HDM. In this follow-up work, we investigated the in vivo
