Background: ST2/IL-33R

Serum stimulation-2 (ST2), also known as Interleukin receptor like-1 (IL1RL1) and T1, is a member of the Interleukin-1 receptor superfamily family glycoprotein that contributes to Th2 immune responses (1, 2). Human ST2 consists of an extracellular domain (ECD) with three Ig-like domains, a transmembrane segment, and a cytoplasmic domain with an intracellular Toll/interleukin-1 receptor (TIR) domain (3, 4). Within the ECD, human ST2 shares 68% and 64% amino acid sequence identity with mouse and rat ST2, respectively. Alternate splicing of human ST2 generates a soluble isoform that lacks the transmembrane and cytoplasmic regions as well as an isoform that additionally lacks the third Ig‑like domain (4). ST2 is expressed on the surface of mast cells, activated Th2 cells, macrophages, and cardiac myocytes (5-8). It binds IL33, a cytokine that is upregulated by inflammation or mechanical strain in smooth muscle cells, airway epithelia, keratinocytes, and cardiac fibroblasts (5, 9). IL-33 binding induces the association of ST2 with IL1R AcP, a shared signaling subunit that also associates with IL1RI and IL1R rp2 (1, 10, 11). In macrophages, ST2 interferes with signaling from IL1RI and TLR4 by sequestering the adaptor proteins MyD88 and Mal (7). In addition to its role in promoting mast cell and Th2 dependent inflammation, ST2 activation enhances antigen induced hypernociception and protects from atherosclerosis and cardiac hypertrophy (5, 12-14). The soluble ST2 isoform is released by activated Th2 cells and strained cardiac myocytes and is elevated in the serum in allergic asthma (6, 8, 15). Soluble ST2 functions as a decoy receptor that blocks IL33 signaling by full-length ST2 (10, 13‑15).
