The invention discloses application of an inhibitor Acevaltrate targeting PCBP2 in preparation of a
medicine for treating
allergic asthma, and belongs to the technical field of biological
medicine. The invention discloses application of PCBP2 as a molecular target of a
drug for treating
allergic asthma. The core
pathological mechanism of
allergic asthma is closely related to M2 polarization of macrophages, and PCBP2 positively drives the polarization process by regulating an STAT6
signal channel. Acevaltrate can specifically inhibit the biological function of PCBP2 and block M2 polarization of macrophages induced by IL-4 / IL-13, so that
airway inflammation is relieved, over-generation of IgE (
immunoglobulin E) is inhibited, and
airway remodeling is improved. The invention further provides a pharmaceutical composition containing the Acevaltrate, a
drug combination scheme of the Acevaltrate and an existing
asthma treatment
drug, and a drug screening
system based on a PCBP2-M2 polarization axis. The technology breaks through the limitation of an existing
asthma treatment target spot, realizes the trans-boundary application of Acevaltrate from an anti-tumor drug to an anti-
asthma drug, provides an accurate and efficient novel
treatment strategy for allergic asthma, especially
refractory asthma, and has remarkable clinical transformation value and wide application prospects.
