However, its role in Th2-mediated immune responses has not been well defined. To address this issue, we studied the function of CD137 engagement using an allergic airway disease model in which the mice were sensitized with inactivated Schistosoma mansoni eggs followed by S. mansoni egg Ag challenge directly in the airways and Th1\/2 cytokine production was monitored. Interestingly, treatment of C57BL\/6 mice with agonistic anti-CD137 (2A) during sensitization completely prevents allergic airway inflammation, as shown by a clear inhibition of T cell and eosinophil infiltration into the lung tissue and airways, accompanied by diminished Th2 cytokine production and reduced serum IgE levels, as well as a reduction of airway hyperresponsiveness. At various time points after immunization, restimulated splenocytes from 2A-treated mice displayed reduced proliferation and Th2 cytokine production. In accordance with this, agonistic Ab to CD137 can directly coinhibit Th2 responses in vitro although it costimulates Th1 responses. CD137-mediated suppression of Th2 response is independent of IFN-\u03b3 and T regulatory cells. Our study has identified a novel pathway to inhibit Th2 responses in a CD137-dependent fashion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.177.2.814","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2014,4,18]],"date-time":"2014-04-18T23:19:01Z","timestamp":1397863141000},"page":"814-821","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":24,"title":["Inhibition of Th2-Mediated Allergic Airway Inflammatory Disease by CD137 Costimulation"],"prefix":"10.1093","volume":"177","author":[{"given":"Yonglian","family":"Sun","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sarah E","family":"Blink","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Wenhua","family":"Liu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Youjin","family":"Lee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Bohao","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Julian","family":"Solway","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Joel","family":"Weinstock","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Medicine, Tufts Medical Center , Boston, MA 02111"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Lieping","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Dermatology, Institute for Cell Engineering, Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine , Baltimore, MD 21287"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Yang-Xin","family":"Fu","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology and Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago , Chicago, IL 60637"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"286","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,7,15]]},"reference":[{"first-page":"771","volume-title":"J.
