Despite being a hallmark of asthma, the molecular mechanisms that determine airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) are not completely established. Transcription factors of the NFAT family are involved in the regulation of several asthma-related genes. It has been shown that the absence of NFAT1 leads to an increased pleural eosinophilic allergic response accompanied by an increased production of Th2 cytokines, suggesting a role for NFAT1 in the regulation of allergic diseases. Herein, we analyze NFAT1\u2212\/\u2212 mice to address the role of NFAT1 in a model of allergic airway inflammation and its influence in AHR. NFAT1\u2212\/\u2212 mice submitted to airway inflammation display a significant exacerbation of several features of the allergic disease, including lung inflammation, eosinophilia, and serum IgE levels, which were concomitant with elevated Th2 cytokine production. However, in spite of the increased allergic phenotype, NFAT1\u2212\/\u2212 mice failed to express AHR after methacholine aerosol. Refractoriness of NFAT1\u2212\/\u2212 mice to methacholine was confirmed in na\u00efve mice, suggesting that this refractoriness occurs in an intrinsic way, independent of the lung inflammation. In addition, NFAT1\u2212\/\u2212 mice exhibit increased AHR in response to serotonin inhalation, suggesting a specific role for NFAT1 in the methacholine pathway of bronchoconstriction. Taken together, these data add support to the interpretation that NFAT1 acts as a counterregulatory mechanism to suppress allergic inflammation. Moreover, our findings suggest a novel role for NFAT1 protein in airway responsiveness mediated by the cholinergic pathway.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1165\/rcmb.2007-0102oc","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2008,7,29]],"date-time":"2008-07-29T23:44:35Z","timestamp":1217375075000},"page":"66-75","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":21,"title":["NFAT1 Transcription Factor Regulates Pulmonary Allergic Inflammation and Airway Responsiveness"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"40","author":[{"given":"Bruna P.
