Abstract
Background

Bronchial asthma is a chronic airway disease characterized by eosinophilic airway inflammation. Lung fibroblasts activated by IL-13 serve as important sources of chemokines, such as eotaxins, contributing to persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Src-homology 2-containing protein (CISH), belonging to the suppressor of cytokine signaling (SOCS) family, acts as a negative regulator of cytokine induction. The aim of this study was to elucidate the role of CISH in the production of eosinophil chemotactic chemokines in human lung fibroblasts.

Methods

Normal human lung fibroblasts were stimulated by IL-13, and global gene expression profile was assessed by cDNA microarray. Expression changes and downstream of IL-13 signaling were evaluated by quantitative RT-PCR, ELISA or western blotting. Loss- and gain-of-function analyses of CISH were performed by small interfering RNA and vector overexpression, respectively.

Results

Ingenuity pathway analysis revealed that IL-13 induced chemokine signaling, including the eotaxin family, while significantly suppressing IFN-α/β signaling. Among eight SOCS family members, CISH was most strongly induced by IL-13 via phosphorylation of signal transducer and activator of transcription 6 (STAT6). Loss- and gain-of-function studies demonstrated that CISH negatively regulated the expression of CCL26.

Conclusions

These findings suggest that CISH plays a key role in the eosinophilic inflammation associated with bronchial asthma by regulating IL-13-induced CCL26 production. Augmentation of CISH function could be a novel approach for treating eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma.
