Abstract
BACKGROUND Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a non-infectious inflammatory disease of the nasal mucosa mediated by IgE and involving a variety of immune cells such as mast cells. In previous studies, AR was considered as an isolated disease of the immune system. However, recent studies have found that the nervous system is closely related to the development of AR. Bidirectional communication between the nervous and immune systems plays an important role in AR. SUMMARY The nervous system and immune system depend on the anatomical relationship between nerve fibers and immune cells, as well as various neurotransmitters, cytokines, inflammatory mediators, etc. to produce bidirectional connections, which affect the development of AR. KEY MESSAGES This article reviews the impact of neuro-immune interactions in AR on the development of AR, including neuro-immune cell units.

Front Immunol 2023; 14:1302336. [PMID: 38143758 PMCID: PMC10739383 DOI: 10.3389/fimmu.2023.1302336] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/26/2023] [Accepted: 11/24/2023] [Indexed: 12/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Background Human adipose tissue-derived stem cells (hADSCs) exert potent immunosuppressive effects in the allogeneic transplantation treatment. In mouse model of allergic rhinitis (AR), ADSCs partially ameliorated AR. However, no study has evaluated the potential therapeutic effects of hADSC-derived extracellular vesicles (hADSC-EVs) on AR. Methods Female BALB/c mice were sensitized and challenged with ovalbumin (OVA) to induce AR. One day after the last nasal drop, each group received phosphate buffered saline (PBS) or hADSC-EVs treatment. Associated symptoms and biological changes were then assessed. Results hADSC-EV treatment significantly alleviated nasal symptoms, and reduced inflammatory infiltration. Serum levels of OVA-specific IgE, interleukin (IL)-4 and interferon (IFN)-γ were all significantly reduced. The mRNA levels of IL-4 and IFN-γ in the spleen also changed accordingly. The T helper (Th)1/Th2 cell ratio increased. The treatment efficacy index of hADSC-EV was higher than that of all human-derived MSCs in published reports on MSC treatment of AR. ADSC-EVs exhibited a greater therapeutic index in most measures when compared to our previous treatment involving ADSCs. Conclusion These results demonstrated that hADSC-EVs could ameliorate the symptoms of AR by modulating cytokine secretion and Th1/Th2 cell balance. hADSC-EVs could potentially be a viable therapeutic strategy for AR. Further animal studies are needed to elucidate the underlying mechanisms and to optimize potential clinical protocols.
