Prominent among those induced in asthma were cytokines of the dendritic cell/T cell axis including IL-2, IL-10 and CCL20/MIP3α, the type 2 pathway including IL-5, IL-13, IL-33, CCL11/eotaxin, CCL17/TARC and CCL22/MDC, the anti-viral interferon pathway including IFN-β, IFN-γ, IFN-λ/IL-29, IL-12p40, IL-15, CCL5/RANTES, CXCL10/IP10, CXCL11/ITAC and the pro-inflammatory cytokines TNFα, IL-6 and IL-17 and chemokines CCL2/MCP-1, CCL3/MIP-1α and CCL4/MIP-1β. Here, CCL2 is linked to asthma.
