BACKGROUND: Asthma is an airway inflammatory disease and a major health problem worldwide. Anti-inflammatory steroids and bronchodilators are the gold-standard therapy for asthma. However, they do not prevent the development of the disease, and critically, a subset of asthmatics are resistant to steroid therapy.
OBJECTIVE: To elucidate the therapeutic potential of human β-defensins (hBD), such as hBD2 mild to moderate and severe asthma.
METHODS: We investigated the role of hBD2 in a steroid-sensitive, house dust mite-induced allergic airways disease (AAD) model and a steroid-insensitive model combining ovalbumin-induced AAD with C muridarum (Cmu) respiratory infection.
RESULTS: In both models, we demonstrated that therapeutic intranasal application of hBD2 significantly reduced the influx of inflammatory cells into the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid. Furthermore, key type 2 asthma-related cytokines IL-9 and IL-13, as well as additional immunomodulating cytokines, were significantly decreased after administration of hBD2 in the steroid-sensitive model. The suppression of inflammation was associated with improvements in airway physiology and treatment also suppressed airway hyper-responsiveness (AHR) in terms of airway resistance and compliance to methacholine challenge.
CONCLUSIONS AND CLINICAL RELEVANCE: These data indicate that hBD2 reduces the hallmark features and has potential as a new therapeutic agent in allergic and especially steroid-resistant asthma.
