The Th (T helper) 2 response is characteristic of allergic asthma, and Th17 cells are involved in more severe asthma. Recent studies demonstrated that HMGB1 (High mobility group box 1 protein) regulates airway inflammation and the Th2, Th17 inflammatory response in asthma. HMGB1 can interact with Toll-like receptors (TLR) 2 and 4, and the receptor for advanced glycation end products (RAGE), activating the NF-κB (nuclear factor kappa B) signaling pathway and inducing the release of downstream inflammatory mediators. Both Th cells and dendritic cells express TLR2, TLR4, and RAGE receptors. Therefore, we speculate that HMGB1 could regulate the differentiation of Th2, Th17 cells in asthma through direct and indirect mechanisms. An ovalbumin (OVA)-induced mouse asthmatic model was established. Anti-HMGB1 antibody or rHMGB1 was administered to OVA-sensitized mice 30 min prior to each challenge. For in vitro studies, magnetically separated CD4+ naive T cells were stimulated with or without rHMGB1 and/or anti-HMGB1 antibody. BMDCs (bone marrow-derived dendritic cells)-stimulated with or without rHMGB1 and/or anti-HMGB1 antibody were cocultured with CD4+ naive T cells. Our study showed that administration of rHMGB1 aggravated airway inflammation and mucus production, and induced Th2, Th17 polarization in asthmatic mice, and that anti-HMGB1 antibody weakened characteristic features of asthma and blocked the Th2, Th17 inflammatory responses. HMGB1 could directly act on naive T cells to induce differentiation of Th2, Th17 cells in vitro through activating the TLR2, TLR4, RAGE-NF-κB signal pathway in CD4+ naive T cells. HMGB1 could also indirectly promote Th2, Th17 differentiation via activating the TLR2, TLR4, RAGE-NF-κB signal pathway in DCs to mediate their maturation and antigen-presenting ability in vitro.
