摘要
可溶性人基质裂解素2 (soluble Suppression of tumorigenicity 2,sST2)是人基质裂解素2 (ST2)亚型之一,其可作为IL-33的受体,选择性表达于Th2细胞,在免疫反应和炎症疾病中发挥重要作用.近年研究发现IL-33与sST2结合,在肺部炎症性疾病中发挥重要作用,如社区获得性肺炎、慢性支气管炎、COPD、哮喘和ARDS.本文对sST2在肺部炎症性疾病中的作用研究进展作一综述.
sST2 is one of the isoforms of ST2,which is known to be a ligand for IL-33 and is selectively expressed on Th2 cells and plays an important role in the immune response and inflammatory diseases.In recent surveys,sST2 is in combination withIL-33,which plays an important role in inflammatory lung diseases,such as community-acquired pneumonia,chronic bronchitis,chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,asthma and acute respiratory distress syndrome.This review focuses on the research advances in inflammatory lung diseases.
