Abstract
In schistosomiasis mansoni, the chronic egg-induced granulomatous response in the liver and intestines may eventually cause extensive tissue scarring and development of portal hypertension. Indeed, much of the morbidity and mortality associated with this disease is directly attributable to the deposition of connective tissue elements in affected tissues. Elucidating the mechanisms that regulate the severity of schistosomiasis has been a major research objective over the past several years. Research conducted with DNA microarrays as well as investigations with a variety of gene knock-out mice have been particularly helpful in achieving this goal. A notable accomplishment in the past few years was the identification of interleukin-13 (IL-13) and the IL-13 receptor complex as central regulators of disease progression in schistosomiasis. Liver fibrogenesis is severely decreased in infected IL-13-deficient mice as well as in wildtype animals treated with IL-13 antagonists. In contrast, IL-13 effector function increases dramatically in IL-13 receptor alpha2 (IL-13Ralpha2)-deficient mice. These mice develop severe hepatic fibrosis, fail to downregulate granuloma formation in the chronic phase of S. mansoni infection, and succumb to the disease at an accelerated rate; thus, identifying the 'decoy' IL-13 receptor as a critical life sustaining 'off' switch for tissue damaging egg-induced inflammation.

Abstract
Macrophages are characterized by a marked phenotypic heterogeneity depending on their microenvironmental stimulation. Beside classical activation (M1), it has been shown that macrophages could follow a different activation pathway after stimulation with interleukin (IL)-4 or IL-13 (M2). Recently, it has been postulated that those "alternatively activated" macrophages may be critical in the control of fibrogenesis. In an experimental model of silicosis, where pulmonary macrophages play a central role, we addressed the question of whether lung fibrosis development would be associated with alternative macrophage activation. As available markers for alternative macrophage activation, type-1 arginase (Arg-1), Fizz1, Ym1/2, and mannose receptor expression were evaluated at the mRNA and/or protein levels at different stages of the disease. Nitric oxide synthase-2 (NOS-2) expression was also examined to investigate the classical counterpart. We found that the expression of Arg-1, Fizz1, and NOS-2 in adherent bronchoalveolar lavage cells was highly up-regulated 3 days after silica administration but returned to control levels during the fibrotic stage of the disease (60 days). By comparing the early response to silica in C57BL/6 and BALB/c mice, we observed that the amplitude of Arg-1 mRNA up-regulation was not associated with the severity of lung fibrosis. Using a model of manganese dioxide particles (resolutive alveolitis), we showed that this early Arg-1 mRNA was not specific to a fibrogenic lung response. Our data indicate that the modifications of M1/M2 marker expression are limited to the early inflammatory stage of silicosis and that the establishment of a fibrotic process is not necessarily associated with M2 polarization.

Abstract
Macrophage/neutrophil-specific IL-4 receptor alpha-deficient mice (LysM(Cre)IL-4Ralpha(-/flox)) were generated to understand the role of IL-4/IL-13 responsive myeloid cells during Type 2 immune responses. LysM(Cre)IL-4Ralpha(-/flox) mice developed protective immunity against Nippostrongylus brasiliensis accompanied by T(H)2 development and goblet cell hyperplasia. In contrast, LysM(Cre)IL-4Ralpha(-/flox) mice were extremely susceptible to Schistosoma mansoni infection with 100% mortality during acute infection. Mortality was not dependent on neutrophils and occurred in the presence of T(H)2/Type 2 responses, granuloma formation, and egg-induced fibrosis. Death was associated with increased T(H)1 cytokines, hepatic and intestinal histopathology, increased NOS-2 activity, impaired egg expulsion, and sepsis. IL-10 was not able to compensate for the absence of IL-4/IL-13-activated alternative macrophages. Together, this shows that alternative macrophages are essential during schistosomiasis for protection against organ injury through downregulation of egg-induced inflammation.

Abstract
The opportunistic protozoan Toxoplasma gondii is a prototypic Th1-inducing pathogen inducing strong gamma interferon (IFN-gamma) cytokine responses that are required to survive infection. Intracellular signaling intermediate STAT1 mediates many effects of IFN-gamma and is implicated in activation of T-bet, a master regulator of Th1 differentiation. Here, we show that T. gondii-infected STAT1-null mice fail to upregulate the IFN-gamma-dependent effector molecules inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), IGTP, and LRG-47, which are required for mice to survive infection. Both T-bet and interleukin-12 receptor beta2 (IL-12Rbeta2) failed to undergo normal upregulation in response to T. gondii. Development of IFN-gamma-producing CD4(+) and CD8(+) T lymphocytes was severely curtailed in the absence of STAT1, but a substantial level of STAT1-independent non-T-cell-derived IFN-gamma was induced. Absence of STAT1 also resulted in increased IL-4, Arg1, Ym1, and Fizz1, markers of Th2 differentiation and alternative macrophage activation. Together, the results show that T. gondii induces STAT1-dependent T-lymphocyte and STAT1-independent non-T-cell IFN-gamma production, but that effector functions of this type 1 cytokine cannot operate in the absence of STAT1, resulting in extreme susceptibility to acute infection.

Abstract
T helper 1 responses are typically proinflammatory, while Th2 responses have been considered regulatory. Interestingly, Th2 responses characterize a number of pulmonary diseases, many of which terminate in tissue remodeling and fibrosis. We developed a mouse model using Schistosoma mansoni eggs and cytokine-deficient mice to induce highly polarized Th1- or Th2-type inflammation in the lung. In this study, we examined the pathology and cytokine profiles in Th1- and Th2-polarized environments and used oligonucleotide microarray analysis to decipher the genes responsible for these effects. We further elaborated on the results using IL-10- and IL-13-deficient mice because these cytokines are believed to be the central regulators of Th2-associated pathology. We found that the Th1-polarized mice developed small granulomas with less fibrosis while expressing genes characteristic of tissue damage. Th2-polarized mice, in contrast, formed large granulomas with massive collagen deposition and up-regulated genes associated with wound healing, specifically, arginase, collagens, matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs), and tissue inhibitors of MMP. In addition, several members of the chitinase-like family were up-regulated in the lung following egg challenge. We also developed a method of defining the net collagen deposition using the expression profiles of several collagen, MMP, and tissue inhibitors of MMP genes. We found that Th1-polarized mice did not elaborate collagens or MMPs and therefore did not have a significant capacity for repair in this model. Thus, Th1-mediated inflammation is characterized by tissue damage, while Th2 directs wound healing and fibrosis.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Arginine metabolism has been a topic of intense interest over the past 15-20 years, primarily with regard to the role of arginine as the nitrogen donor for nitric oxide synthesis. However, other important aspects of arginine metabolism, such as arginine transport and arginine catabolism via the arginases, arginine decarboxylase or agmatinase, have been less well studied. The purpose of this review is to highlight recent studies on the urea cycle, agmatine metabolism, and the arginases. RECENT FINDINGS Recent advances include the cloning of complementary DNA encoding agmatinase, N-acetylglutamate synthetase, and proteins involved in mitochondrial arginine transport, as well as initial investigations of their regulation and tissue-specific expression. The most exciting results of studies in this area over the past year or so have indicated new roles for the arginases in health and disease, as a result of their effects on the synthesis of nitric oxide, proline, or polyamines, or on the expression of specific genes by their ability to limit the availability of free arginine. SUMMARY Recent studies have led to refinements in our understanding of the urea cycle. Agmatine metabolism is still largely a mystery, although the isolation of cloned cDNA for agmatinase and possibly also arginine decarboxylase should stimulate much needed investigations in this area. The most exciting findings in the field are coming from studies indicating new roles for the arginases in various diseases.

Abstract
Onchocerca volvulus is a tissue-invasive parasitic nematode causing skin and eye pathology in human onchocerciasis. The filariae habour abundant intracellular Wolbachia bacteria, now recognised as obligatory symbionts, and therefore emerging as a novel target for chemotherapy. Recent research demonstrates that both the filariae and endobacteria contribute to the pathogenesis of onchocerciasis, and molecules have been identified that promote inflammatory or counter-inflammatory immune mechanisms, divert the host's immune response or procure evasion of the parasite.

Abstract
Although the importance of CD8(+) T cells for vaccination and immunity to reinfection with Leishmania parasites is well established, their role in primary infections is disputed. In the present study we further characterized the role of CD8(+) T cells in primary L. major infections. We used two groups of L. major infected BALB/c mice: both groups were immunomanipulated to heal and in one group CD8(+) T cells were depleted throughout the course of infection. Our results show that the reversal of healing caused by the absence of CD8(+) T cells did not alter the proliferation of CD4(+) T cells, however, the frequency of CD4(+) T cells expressing IFN-gamma as well as the levels of this cytokine were clearly reduced. These lower levels of IFN-gamma correlated with a higher parasite load. Our results show that transient depletion of CD4(+) T cells allows the establishment of an equilibrium between CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and allows CD8(+) T cell activation and effector functions to develop. In addition, our results suggest that cross-talk between CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells is crucial for the host defence against L. major.

Abstract
BACKGROUND & AIMS Goblet cells are highly polarized exocrine cells found throughout the small and large intestine that have a characteristic morphology due to the accumulation of apical secretory granules. These granules contain proteins that play important physiologic roles in cellular protection, barrier function, and proliferation. A limited number of intestinal goblet cell-specific proteins have been identified. In this study, we investigate the expression and regulation of RELMbeta, a novel colon-specific gene. METHODS The regulation of RELMbeta messenger RNA expression was determined in LS174T, Caco-2, and HT-29 cell lines in response to stimulation with interleukin 13 and lipopolysaccharide. Quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction, immunoblots, and immunohistochemistry were used to examine the expression of RELMbeta in BALB/c and C.B17.SCID mice housed in conventional, germ-free, and gnotobiotic environments. RESULTS Messenger RNA for RELMbeta is restricted to the undifferentiated, proliferating colonic epithelium. Immunohistochemistry shows that this protein is expressed in goblet cells located primarily in the distal half of the colon and cecum with lower levels detectable in the proximal colon. High levels of RELMbeta can be detected in the stool of mice and humans, where it exists as a homodimer under nonreducing conditions. Interestingly, the secretion of RELMbeta is dramatically reduced in germ-free mice. Furthermore, introduction of germ-free mice into a conventional environment results in enhanced expression and robust secretion of RELMbeta within 48 hours. CONCLUSIONS These studies define a new goblet cell-specific protein and provide the first evidence that colon-specific gene expression can be regulated by colonization with normal enteric bacteria.

Abstract
PURPOSE OF REVIEW Infections with the filarial nematodes affect more than 150 million people mainly in the tropics. The very successful efforts to control filarial infections, however, have to be sustained by new tools that require long-term commitment to research. This review, focusing on reports from 2002 and 2003, highlights recent advances in research on immunology, understanding of pathogenesis and drug development in lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis research with potential relevance to the generation of new tools for control. RECENT FINDINGS Dramatic improvement has been achieved in the control of lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis by vector control and mass treatment with microfilaricidal drugs. Additional tools that could help in regional elimination or, ultimately, eradication of filariasis may arise from the development of new drugs or a vaccine. Research into the immune responses mediating protection or pathology has provided new insights into the pathways that lead to effector function and immunosuppression, such as T regulatory responses, as well as into genetic predispositions from the host's side, and to the identification of vaccine candidates that show protection in animal models. Recognition of the role the Wolbachia endosymbionts may play in activating the innate immune system has altered our understanding of immunopathology of filariasis and adverse reactions to microfilaricidal drugs. Wolbachia spp. have also proven to be suitable targets for the development of a long-term sterilizing or potentially macrofilaricidal drug. SUMMARY This review summarizes recent developments in the control of filariasis, in particular lymphatic filariasis and onchocerciasis, as well as in modern research into the immunity of filariasis and new drug development that could lead to additional tools necessary for sustained success in filariasis control.

Abstract
Immunology was founded by studying the body's response to infectious microorganisms, and yet microbial prokaryotes only tell half the story of the immune system. Eukaryotic pathogens--protozoa, helminths, fungi and ectoparasites--have all been powerful selective forces for immune evolution. Often, as with lethal protozoal parasites, the focus has been on acute infections and the inflammatory responses they evoke. Long-lived parasites such as the helminths, however, are more remarkable for their ability to downregulate host immunity, protecting themselves from elimination and minimizing severe pathology in the host.

Abstract
Using a murine model of nematode infection, we have discovered macrophages that display a novel phenotype that may be characteristic of macrophages in chronic type 2 inflammation. These nematode-elicited macrophages (NeMphi) are characterized by two unique features: the ability to actively suppress proliferation of a broad range of cell types and the high level expression of two novel macrophage genes, Ym1 and Fizz1. NeMphi also show some similarities with in vitro-derived 'alternatively activated macrophages' such as the downregulation of inflammatory cytokines. We therefore investigated how much of the phenotype discovered in vivo could be replicated by activation with Th2 cytokines in vitro. Fizz1 and Ym1 were upregulated by IL-4 and IL-13 in vitro but at a considerably lower level than in NeMphi. In vitro treatment with IL-4 could also partly replicate the ability of NeMphi to block cellular proliferation. As well as the quantitative differences in gene expression and suppressive phenotype, we also observed phenotypic differences in the cell morphology between macrophages activated in vivo and in vitro. Although this study illustrated that macrophages activated in chronic inflammation have distinct features that cannot be readily reproduced in vitro it also demonstrated that some features of the complex NeMphi phenotype can be replicated by treatment of cultured macrophages with Th2 cytokines. In future, we hope to use in vitro analysis to help define the pathways that lead to this distinctive in vivo macrophage phenotype.

Abstract
The classical pathway of interferon-gamma-dependent activation of macrophages by T helper 1 (T(H)1)-type responses is a well-established feature of cellular immunity to infection with intracellular pathogens, such as Mycobacterium tuberculosis and HIV. The concept of an alternative pathway of macrophage activation by the T(H)2-type cytokines interleukin-4 (IL-4) and IL-13 has gained credence in the past decade, to account for a distinctive macrophage phenotype that is consistent with a different role in humoral immunity and repair. In this review, I assess the evidence in favour of alternative macrophage activation in the light of macrophage heterogeneity, and define its limits and relevance to a range of immune and inflammatory conditions.
