Patients with asthma, a major public health problem, are at high risk for serious
disease from influenza virus infection, but the pathogenic mechanisms by which
influenza A causes airway disease and asthma are not fully known. We show here in
a mouse model that influenza infection acutely induced airway hyper-reactivity
(AHR), a cardinal feature of asthma, independently of T helper type 2 (T(H)2)
cells and adaptive immunity. Instead, influenza infection induced AHR through a
previously unknown pathway that required the interleukin 13 (IL-13)-IL-33 axis
and cells of the non-T cell, non-B cell innate lymphoid type called 'natural
helper cells'. Infection with influenza A virus, which activates the NLRP3
inflammasome, resulted in much more production of IL-33 by alveolar macrophages,
which in turn activated natural helper cells producing substantial IL-13.
