Investigation of immune and haematopoietic disorders

Abstract
The World Health Organisation estimates that in the region of 300 million people worldwide now suffer from asthma.
Allergic asthma is caused by an abnormal reaction to a variety of environmental agents, called allergens. This leads to long-term lung inflammation and an over-responsiveness of the airways. As the airways become narrowed and irritated, coughing, wheezing and shortness of breath occur.
The body is normally protected by its immune system, but during asthma it becomes inappropriately activated by allergens such as pollen and dust. We are trying to understand how the immune system is being controlled and identify points at which we may be able to block it and thereby improve asthma symptoms.
Cells of the immune system communicate by sending out protein messengers (called interleukins ) that are received by other cells and cause them to switch on specific functions – for example to start producing mucus in the lung in response to irritation. We have discovered a new immune cell (ILC2) that plays a key role in receiving and sending out messages during asthma-like disease.
We have shown using mouse asthma models that blocking the action of interleukin-25 (IL-25) inhibits asthma-like responses. We have gone on to produce antibodies that target either IL-25 or its receptor, and these are being developed as potential therapeutics.

Technical Summary
Allergic asthma is characterised by uncontrollable airways hyperresponsiveness (AHR) induced by a variety of provocative stimuli and is associated with type-2 inflammatory infiltrates into the lungs. The number of sufferers has increased dramatically over recent decades and the World Health Organisation estimates that in the region of 300 million people worldwide suffer from this disorder.
Using transgenic mouse models we have characterised fundamental inter-dependent roles for the type-2 cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4), IL-5, IL-9 and IL-13 as mediators of asthma and allergy. More recently we have focussed on characterising critical molecules that initiate the type-2 response. These include IL-25 and IL-33. IL-25 is a member of the IL-17 family of cytokines and we have demonstrated an important role for IL-25 in protective immunity to infection and uncovered a critical role for IL-25 in airways hyperresponsiveness and inflammation. We developed monoclonal antibodies that block the interaction of IL-25 with its receptor, and administration of this antibody prevents airways hyperresponsiveness in a mouse model of allergic asthma. These antibodies have been humanised and licenced for further development as therapeutics.
Using Il13-eGFP reporter mice, we discovered type-2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2) and demonstrated that they are the predominant early source of the IL-13 critical for inducing expulsion of the helminth parasite, Nippostrongylus brasiliensis, following infection. ILC2 also expand in experimental models of asthma, where they represent an important source of type-2 cytokines. Our recent studies have indicated that ILC2 interact with dendritic cells and Th2 cells to potentiate type-2 immunity. We have shown that these type-2 ILCs develop from common lymphoid progenitors under signals from IL-7 and IL-33 and Notch. We have gone on to show that the transcription factors RORa and Bcl11b play important roles in ILC2 development. Furthermore, using a novel panel of transcription factor reporter mice we have defined a new model for ILC progenitor development in the bone marrow.
