| Abstract: | Conclusion: These results suggest that middle ear fibroblasts contribute to the recruitment of Th2 cells into the middle ear by producing thymus and activation-regulated chemokine (TARC). Objectives: Intractable otitis media is more common in atopic subjects and asthmatics than in the otherwise normal population. Although type 2 T helper (Th2) cytokines play crucial roles in the middle ear of these populations, the mechanism underlying the predominance of Th2 cytokines has yet to be clarified. TARC has been known to facilitate recruitment of Th2 polarized cells, resulting in high levels of Th2 cytokines in the middle ear. We investigated whether middle ear-derived fibroblasts produce TARC when stimulated with poly(I:C) and Th2 cytokines (IL-4, IL-13). Materials and methods: Fibroblast lines were established from middle ear mucosa. TARC mRNA expression was evaluated by real-time RT-PCR. The amount of TARC in the culture supernatants was measured by ELISA. Results: Poly(I:C) induced only TARC gene expression in middle ear-derived fibroblasts. Combined stimulation with poly(I:C) and Th2 cytokine (IL-4, IL-13) synergistically induced TARC production by the cultured middle ear-derived fibroblasts. This response was dose and time dependent.
