    Abstract The incidence of asthma has increased in recent decades. Although corticosteroids and bronchodilators are used in clinical practice, the control of asthma remains a challenge. Allergic asthma is characterized airway inflammation mediated by type 2 immune response. Group 2 innate lymphoid cells (ILC2s) are an important source of type 2 cytokines IL-5 and IL-13, which contribute to the progress of asthma. Jia-Wei-Yu-Ping-Feng-San (JWYPFS), a traditional Chinese medicine, has been widely used to treat asthma in China. In this study we investigated the mechanisms of JWYPFS in the treatment of asthma, especially the effect on ILC2s important in airway inflammation. Female C57BL/6 mice were sensitized and challenged with OVA to establish a model of allergic asthma. Airway hyperresponsiveness was examined by direct airway resistance analysis. Inflammatory cell counts were determined in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). Inflammatory cell infiltration and mucus hypersecretion in lung tissue sections was observed by HE and PAS staining, respectively. The numbers and proportions of ILC2s as well as the ILC2s-related transcription factors GATA3, IRF4, and type 2 cytokines were measured in lung tissue samples. Additionally, ILC2s were collected from mouse lung; ILC2s-related cytokines and GATA3 and IRF4 were evaluated after IL-33-induced activation of ILC2s in vitro. Elevated inflammatory cells, mucus secretion, airway hyperresponsiveness and type 2 cytokines in the OVA-treated asthma group indicated that an allergic asthma model had been established. JWYPFS treatment attenuated airway resistance and reduced inflammatory cells including eosinophils, and inhibited mucus production and type 2 cytokines in these asthmatic mice. Moreover, JWYPFS treatment dramatically decreased the numbers and proportions of ILC2s and the mRNA levels of GATA3 and IRF4. In an in vitro experiment JWYPFS significantly suppressed GATA3, IRF4 and type 2 cytokine expression, including IL-5 and IL-13 in IL-33-stimulated ILC2s. JWYPFS alleviates ILC2s-mediated airway inflammation, suggesting that JWYPFS might be an effective agent to treat allergic asthma.

    Abstract Objective. To probe into the ameliorative effect of Yanghe Decoction on pulmonary injury and immunologic derangement in asthmatic mice. Methods. C57BL/6 mice were randomized into control (Con), Model, and Yanghe Decoction (YHF) groups, with 12 in each. The asthma model of adult female mice was induced by ovalbumin in the Model group, and the YHF group was treated by Yanghe Decoction on the basis of asthma modeling. The Con group received the same amount of normal saline. Inspiratory resistance (Ri), expiratory resistance (Re), lung compliance (CL), and maximal voluntary ventilation (MVV) were measured after modeling. Lung tissue was collected for the measurement of interleukin (IL)-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-10, IL-13, and tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) by ELISA kits. Combined with HE staining and PAS staining, the pathological alterations of the lung in each group were observed, and CD4+, Th2, and Th1 contents were determined by flow cytometry (FCM). Results. The pulmonary function (PF) test revealed notably reduced Ri and Re as well as enhanced CL and MVV in asthmatic mice after the application of Yanghe Decoction. Yanghe Decoction dramatically ameliorated the pathological changes of lung tissue in asthmatic mice, as demonstrated by the staining results. ELISA results showed that Yanghe Decoction validly reduces lung tissue IL-4, IL-5, IL-6, IL-13, TNF-α and upregulates IL-10 in asthmatic mice. FCM indicated that Yanghe Decoction obviously reduced the number of Th1 and Th2 cells in asthmatic mice, although it caused the decrease of CD4+ cells, but the difference was not statistically significant. Conclusions. Yanghe Decoction can effectively ameliorate the inflammatory reaction, immune cell disorder, and PF injury in ovalbumin-induced asthmatic mice.
