Fig 1. Schematic
diagram of IL-4/IL-4R signaling pathway.
Interleukin-4Rα (IL-4Rα), the key receptor of IL-4, has
emerged as an ‘inspiring’ target for innovative therapies aimed at treating various inflammatory and
oncological diseases. IL-4Rα is a type I transmembrane protein that plays a key role in the molecular
pathway that drives a specific immune pattern called type II inflammations.
This pathway is driven
by two cytokines: interleukin-4 (IL-4) and interleukin-13 (IL-13). Both cytokines have diverse biological and
immunological effects on lymphocytes, dendritic cells and fibroblasts adjustment function. Specifically,
these cytokines bind to IL-4Rα to initiate the type II inflammation pathway that includes differentiation of
Th2 cells, airway inflammation and mucus production.
Clinical Application
IL-4R and cytokines IL-4 and IL-13 are key regulators in humoral and adaptive immunity.
This means that an imbalance in either receptor expression or circulating signaling cytokines can be clinically
observed. The resultant immune overreaction is initiated by an initial imbalance of TH1 and TH2 differentiation
that drives an abnormal secretion of cytokines. Activated Th2 cells release cytokines including IL-4, 13, and
31, which activate downstream B cells to transform and produce immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibodies. In turn, mast
cells and basophils are recruited to degranulate and produce inflammatory factors. Simultaneously, the secreted
IL-4 and 13 continue to bind to its respective receptors (e. g. IL-4R) that repeatedly promotes TH2
differentiation and subsequent inflammation. This effect is observed through several autoimmune diseases
including asthma, eczema, and hay fever, as well as in metastatic tumors.
Asthma
Asthma is a complex, persistent, and lifelong inflammatory disease. Dupilumab
is a human monoclonal antibody targeting IL-4Rα. Its mechanism of action is to specifically block the
type II IL-4R/IL-13R signaling pathway while inhibiting the intracellular activity of IL-4 and IL-13
with STAT6. By preventing cytokine signaling at the source, the Th2 inflammatory response is minimized.
Eczema
Eczema, otherwise known as atopic dermatitis, is a disease characterized by
skin inflammation, dry skin, rashes, and blisters. Recent studies have begun to emphasize that eczema
may stem from overexpression of IL-13/IL-4 signaling in specific individuals. Thus, development of
therapies targeting the IL-13/IL-4 /IL-4R and its intracellular signaling pathway is a promising
innovative strategy.
Hay Fever
Hay fever, also known as allergic rhinitis, is a common chronic disease that
is driven by an IgE mediated inflammatory response in the nasal mucosa and cause a variety of
complications. In a recent study, inhibition of the IL-4/STAT6/GATA3 signaling pathway can reduce IL-4
secretion, serum IgE and airway mucus production, effectively improving symptoms due to hay fever.
Metastatic Tumors
Beyond autoimmune diseases, IL-4R is also overexpressed in many epithelial
cancers. Whereas the intracellular signaling of IL-4/ IL-4R in lymphocytes drives the type II
inflammation pathway. As such, overexpression of IL-4R drives metastasis and tumor growth, revealing
IL-4R inhibitory drugs as a potential therapeutic tool for metastatic tumors.
