Unique IL-13Rα2/STAT3 mediated IL-13 regulation detected in lung conventional dendritic cells, 24 h post viral vector vaccination.

ABSTRACT: This study demonstrates that 24 h following viral vector-based vaccination IL-13Rα2 functions as a master sensor on conventional dendritic cells (cDCs), abetted by high protein stability coupled with minimal mRNA expression, to rapidly regulate DC mediated IL-13 responses at the lung mucosae, unlike IL-13Rα1. Under low IL-13, IL-13Rα2 performs as a primary signalling receptor, whilst under high IL-13, acts to sequester IL-13 to maintain homeostasis, both in a STAT3-dependent manner. Likewise, we show that viral vector-derived IL-13 levels at the vaccination site can induce differential STAT3/STAT6 paradigms in lung cDC, that can get regulated collaboratively or independently by TGF-β1 and IFN-γ. Specifically, low IL-13 responses associated with recombinant Fowlpox virus (rFPV) is regulated
