Rhinovirus induction of fractalkine (CX3CL1) in airway and peripheral blood mononuclear cells in asthma

Abstract: Rhinovirus infection is associated with the majority of asthma exacerbations. The role of fractalkine in anti-viral (type 1) and pathogenic (type 2) responses to rhinovirus infection in allergic asthma is unknown. To determine whether (1) fractalkine is produced in airway cells and in peripheral blood leucocytes, (2) rhinovirus infection increases production of fractalkine and (3) levels of fractalkine differ in asthmatic compared to non-asthmatic subjects. Fractalkine protein and mRNA levels were measured in … Show more

“…This data suggest that ML polarization is a dynamic process dependent on lung microenvironment and rhinovirus-induced asthma exacerbations in allergic patients is characterized by an amplified Th2 immune response. This in accordance with study of Upton et al where BAL cells from nonasthmatic controls and in M1-like MDM, but not BAL cells from mild asthmatics or M2-like MDM infected in vitro with RV were characterized by increased production of fractalkine [60] indirectly indicating decreased amounts of M1-like ML in allergic asthma patients.…”

“…It is produced in the intestinal tract following a trigger by proinflammatory signals and may be involved in directing intestinal epithelial cell-lymphocyte interactions, as well as the attraction of lymphocytes into the intestinal lamina propria. Recently it was reported that fractalkine may be involved in both immunopathological and antiviral immune responses to rhinovirus infection ( 23 ). Surface expression of CX3CR1, the receptor for fractalkine, has been demonstrated in NK cells, monocytes, CD8+ T cells, and, to a lesser extent, CD4+ T cells.…”

“…However, in the convalescence phase (2 weeks later) the RV‐HBoV1 group was demonstrated by decreased expression of fractalkine, MCP‐3, and IL‐8 when compared with the RV group. Fractalkine is known for inducing chemotaxis and it has antiviral properties, 39 whereas MCP‐3 has been suggested as a profibrotic chemokine, 40 that is associated with activation and migration of monocytes and macrophages in the airways. 41 IL‐8, known for the robust chemotaxis of neutrophils in the airways, activates the inflammatory cells via the recruitment of innate and adaptive immunity cells.…”
