“…The majority of data on this mediator release in response to a stimulus is derived from in vivo murine models or in vitro culture; for instance, IAV, RSV, and hRV are all potent inducers of IL-33 release in mice and from human bronchial epithelial cells (hBECs) in vitro (Josset et al, 2014;Kearley et al, 2015). Elevated TSLP, HMGB-1, and IL-33 are seen in the nasopharynx of infants with hRV-and RSV-associated bronchiolitis and IL-33 in nasal aspirates of children with severe IAV infection, all likely indicative of the particular viral strains being encountered for the first time (Chen et al, 2019;García-García et al, 2017;Guo et al, 2018;Perez et al, 2014;Saravia et al, 2015). Elevated concentrations of IL-25 and IL-33 are likewise seen in the airways of previously seronegative adults challenged experimentally with a hRV, particularly in subjects who are also asthmatic (Beale et al, 2014;Jackson et al, 2014;Ravanetti et al, 2019).…”
