STAT6介导信号网络调控变应性鼻炎及中药干预作用的研究进展

    Research Progress of STAT6-mediated Signal Network Regulating Allergic Rhinitis and the Intervention Effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine

    • 摘要: 变应性鼻炎(allergic rhinitis,AR)是一种由免疫球蛋白E(immunoglobulin E,IgE)介导、2型辅助T细胞(T helper 2 cell,Th2)优势应答引起的免疫炎症性疾病。信号转导和转录激活因子6(signal transducer and activator of transcription 6,STAT6)作为介导Th2细胞的关键转录因子,通过多种信号通路广泛参与AR鼻腔炎症反应、高反应性、黏液高分泌以及重塑等病理过程。近年来研究发现,STAT6介导白介素-4(interleukin-4,IL-4)、白介素-13(interleukin-13,IL-13)及GATA结合蛋白3(GATA-binding protein 3,GATA3)等信号通路与AR有密切的关系。中药可明显降低AR的复发率,研究显示通过STAT6介导的信号网络降低IgE水平、缓解Th2细胞免疫炎症反应是中药治疗AR的重要作用机制。本文通过检索相关数据库,对STAT6介导上述相关信号网络调控AR以及中药干预作用进行综述,以期为AR的实验研究与新药开发提供理论基础。

       

      Abstract: Allergic rhinitis(AR) is an immune inflammatory disease primarily caused by an immune system response involving immunoglobulin E(IgE) and T helper 2 cell(Th2) dominance. As a key transcription factor mediating Th2 cells, signal transducer and activator of transcription 6(STAT6) is widely involved in variously physiopathological processes such as immune-inflammatory response, hyperreactivity, mucus hypersecretion and nasal remodeling in the AR nasal cavity through multiple signaling networks. Recent studies have found that STAT6 mediates signaling pathways involving interleukin-4(IL-4), interleukin-13(IL-13), and GATA-binding protein 3(GATA3), which are closely associated with AR. Traditional Chinese medicine has been shown to significantly reduce the recurrence rate of AR. Studies indicate that its therapeutic mechanisms involve modulating the STAT6-mediated signaling network to lower IgE levels and alleviate Th2 cell-mediated immune inflammatory responses, which are critical pathways in traditional Chinese medicine treatment for AR. By reviewing literature from relevant databases, this paper summarizes the regulatory role of the STAT6-driven signaling network in AR pathogenesis and the interventional effects of traditional Chinese medicine, aiming to provide a theoretical foundation for experimental research and novel drug development targeting AR.
