Antigen-induced eosinophil recruitment into the airways of
sensitized mice is mediated by CD4+ T cells and their
cytokines, especially IL-5. In this study, we found that the
antigen-induced airway eosinophilia was diminished in Stat5a-deficient
(Stat5a / ) mice and Stat5b-deficient
(Stat5b / ) mice. We also found that antigen-induced
CD4+ T-cell infiltration and IL-5 production in the
airways were diminished in Stat5a / mice and
Stat5b / mice. Moreover, antigen-induced proliferation
of splenocytes was diminished in Stat5a / mice and
Stat5b / mice, suggesting that the generation of
antigen-primed T cells may be compromised in Stat5a /
mice and Stat5b / mice and this defect may account for
the diminished antigen-induced T-cell infiltration into the airways.
Interestingly, IL-4 and IL-5 production from anti-CD3-stimulated
splenocytes was diminished in Stat5a / mice and
Stat5b / mice. However, antigen-specific IgE and IgG1
production was diminished in Stat5a / mice but not in
Stat5b / mice, whereas antigen-specific IgG2a
production was increased in Stat5a / mice, suggesting
the enhanced Th1 responses in Stat5a / mice. Finally,
we found that eosinophilopoiesis induced by the administration of
recombinant IL-5 was also diminished in Stat5a / mice
and Stat5b / mice. Together, these results indicate
that both Stat5a and Stat5b are essential for induction of
antigen-induced eosinophil recruitment into the airways and that the
defects in antigen-induced eosinophil recruitment in
Stat5a / mice and Stat5b / mice
result from both impaired IL-5 production in the airways and diminished
IL-5 responsiveness of eosinophils.
