Blocking glycolysis and HIF‐1α in mice under interleukin‐33 (IL‐33) stimulation were performed to test ILC2 responses. Conditional HIF‐1α‐deficient mice were used to confirm the specific role of HIF‐1α in ILC2‐driven airway inflammation models. Transcriptomic, metabolic, and chromatin immunoprecipitation analyses were performed to elucidate the underlying mechanism.ResultsHIF‐1α is involved in ILC2 metabolism and is crucial in allergic airway inflammation. Single‐cell sequencing data analysis and qPCR confirmation revealed a significant upregulation of glycolysis‐related genes, particularly HIF‐1α, in murine lung ILC2s after IL‐33 intranasal administration or injection. Treatment with the glycolysis inhibitor 2‐deoxy‐D‐glucose (2‐DG) and the HIF‐1α inhibitor 2‐methoxyestradiol (2‐ME) abrogated inflammation by suppressing ILC2s function.

Progranulin (PGRN), an epithelial cell and macrophage‐derived secretory protein, is associated with neutrophilic inflammation. PGRN is digested into various derivatives at inflammatory sites and is involved in several inflammatory processes. PGRN and its derivatives likely regulate responses to DEP exposure in allergic airway inflammation.AimTo investigate the role of PGRN and its derivatives in the regulation of responses to DEP exposure in allergic airway inflammation.MethodsA murine model of allergic airway inflammation was generated in PGRN‐deficient mice, and they were simultaneously exposed to DEP followed by intranasal administration of full‐length recombinant PGRN (PGRN‐FL) and a PGRN‐derived fragment (FBAC). Inflammatory status was evaluated by bronchoalveolar lavage fluid and histopathologic analyses. Human bronchial epithelial cells were stimulated with DEPs and house dust mites (HDMs), and the effect of FBAC treatment was evaluated by assessing various intracellular signaling molecules, autophagy markers, inflammatory cytokines, and intracellular oxidative stress.ResultsDEP exposure exaggerated neutrophilic inflammation, enhanced IL‐6 and CXCL15 secretions, and increased oxidative stress in the murine model; this effect was greater in PGRN‐deficient mice than in wild‐type mice. The DEP‐exposed mice with PGRN‐FL treatment revealed no change in neutrophil infiltration and higher oxidative stress status in the lungs. On the contrary, FBAC administration inhibited neutrophilic infiltration and reduced oxidative stress. In human bronchial epithelial cells, DEP and HDM exposure increased intracellular oxidative stress and IL‐6 and IL‐8 secretion. Decreased nuclear factor erythroid 2‐related factor 2 (Nrf2) expression and increased phosphor‐p62 and LC3B expression were also observed. FBAC treatment attenuated oxidative stress from DEP and HDM exposure.ConclusionsFBAC reduced neutrophilic inflammation exaggerated by DEP exposure in a mouse model of allergic airway inflammation by reducing oxidative stress.
