Gilfillan* IL-33 is elevated in afflicted tissues of patients with mast cell (MC)–dependent chronic allergic diseases. Based on its acute effects on mouse MCs, IL-33 is thought to play a role in the pathogenesis of allergic disease through MC activation. However, the mani- festations of prolonged IL-33 exposure on human MC function, which best reflect the conditions associated with chronic allergic disease, are unknown. In this study, we found that long-term exposure of human and mouse MCs to IL-33 results in a substantial reduction of MC activation in response to Ag. This reduction required >72 h exposure to IL-33 for onset and 1–2 wk for reversion following IL-33 removal. This hyporesponsive phenotype was determined to be a consequence of MyD88-dependent attenuation of Downloaded from signaling processes necessary for MC activation, including Ag-mediated calcium mobilization and cytoskeletal reorganization, potentially as a consequence of downregulation of the expression of phospholipase Cg1 and Hck. These findings suggest that IL-33 may play a protective, rather than a causative, role in MC activation under chronic conditions and, furthermore, reveal regulated plasticity in the MC activation phenotype. The ability to downregulate MC activation in this manner may provide alternative approaches for treatment of MC-driven disease.

The effects of M defense mechanisms through the release of an array of IL-33 on MC activation have, however, been controversial. Al- inflammatory mediators following receptor-dependent activation though it is recognized that IL-33 induces cytokine release from (1). These mediators, however, are also responsible for initiating the MCs in culture (7, 10–12) and markedly enhances the ability of cellular and pathological manifestations of allergic disorders, in- Ag to elicit this response (6–9), some studies report that IL-33 cluding anaphylaxis, asthma, rhinitis, and atopic dermatitis (2).
