Genetic pathways

Effects

[16]

-

CNS / microglia

Apigenin and luteolin inhibit Iba-1

They act on IL-31 and NF-κB by reducing IL-33 production

[17]

Ischemia-reperfusion, renal injury

Kidneys

The chromatin remodeling protein BRG1

It regulates the transcription of IL-33

[18]

MS

PBMC cells

HDAC3

It acts by transcriptional repressor of IL-33

[19]

MS

CNS

DND1, PET100, GPR160, LPAR6, and SERTAD3 correlate with IL-33

These genes, but not IL-33, are involved in DNA repair or mitochondrial function and mRNA splicing pathways.

[20]

Infection of Mesocestoides corti and Nippostrongylus brasiliensis

Bone marrow (eosinophil)

Dusp5

IL-33-activated Dusp5/ eosinophils had improved cellular ERK1/2 activation and BCL-XL expression resulting in higher eosinophil survival

[21]

Atherosclerotic and inflammatory diseases

HUVECs cells

IL-8 gene

IL-33 induces IL-8 expression through the activation of JNK/c-Jun/AP-1 pathway causing inflammatory syndromes

[22]

Allergic asthma

Lung

siRNA blockade of Rip2

Therefore, it blocks the expression of IL-33 ameliorating inflammation

[23]

Acute lung injury

Lung

NLRP3 silencing

Reduce IL-33 expression

[24]

Alzheimer’s disease

Brain/microglia

IL-33-provoked remodeling of chromatin accessibility and PU0.1 transcription factor binding

Modify microglial epigenetic and transcriptomic profiles resulting in Alzheimer amelioration

[25]

Allergic diseases

Lung

Trimethylated lysine 27 of histone H3 at promoter regions of IL-33

Down-regulation of IL-33

[26]

Cardiovascular diseases

Heart

PKCβ/JNK

IL-33 inhibits apoptosis
