Allergic airway inflammation induces upregulation of the expression of IL-23R by macrophages and not in CD3 + T cells and CD11c+F4/80- dendritic cells of the lung.


ABSTRACT: Interleukin 23 and the interleukin 23 receptor (IL-23-IL23R) are described as the major enhancing factors for Interleukin 17 (IL-17) in allergic airway inflammation. IL-17 is considered to induce neutrophilic inflammation in the lung, which is often observed in severe, steroid-resistant asthma-phenotypes. For that reason, understanding of IL-23 and IL-17 axis is very important for future therapy strategies, targeting neutrophil pathway of bronchial asthma.This study aimed to investigate the distribution and expression of IL-23R under physiological and inflammatory conditions. Therefore, a house dust mite (HDM) model of allergic airway inflammation was performed by treating mice with HDM intranasally. Immunofluorescence staining with panel of antibodies was performed in lung tissues to exam
