[Neuroimmunology of allergic rhinitis : Part 1: Cellular and humoral basic principles]
Abstract
Allergic rhinitis (AR) is a very common disease with a high prevalence worldwide. It is an IgE-mediated type 2 inflammatory disease following exposure to inhalant allergens. A multitude of different neuropeptides including substance P, vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), nerve growth factor (NGF), and neuromedin U (NMU) can be released via peripheral axon or central reflexes, interact with immune cells, and thus contribute to neurogenic inflammation which causes the nasal hyperreactivity (NHR) characteristic of AR. Independent production of neuroendocrine hormones and neuropeptides by immune cells has also been demonstrated. Neuro-immune cell units arise when immune and neuronal cells colocalize, for which typical anatomic regions are, e.g., the mast cell-nerve functional unit. The focus of this review is the elucidation of neuroimmune communication mechanisms in AR.
Die allergische Rhinitis (AR) ist eine sehr häufige Erkrankung mit weltweit hoher Prävalenz. Sie ist eine IgE-vermittelte und entzündungsbedingte Typ-2-Erkrankung nach Exposition gegenüber inhalativen Allergenen. Eine Vielzahl von Neuropeptiden wie Substanz P (SP), vasoaktives intestinales Peptid (VIP), „calcitonin gene-related peptide“ (CGRP), Nervenwachstumsfaktor (NGF) und Neuromedin U (NMU) können über periphere Axonreflexe oder zentrale Reflexe freigesetzt werden, mit Immunzellen interagieren und sind so an einer neurogenen Entzündung beteiligt, die zur nasalen Hyperreaktivität (NHR) der AR führt. Die eigenständige Produktion von neuroendokrinen Hormonen und Neuropeptiden durch Immunzellen wurde ebenfalls nachgewiesen. Neuroimmunzellverbände entstehen, wenn Immun- und neuronale Zellen kolokalisieren. Typische anatomische Regionen dafür sind beispielsweise die Nerv-Mastzellen-Einheit. In dieser Übersicht liegt der Fokus auf der Ausarbeitung neuroimmunologischer Kommunikationsmechanismen der AR.
