Abstract:
Objective To construct the murine allogeneic acute GVHD model.Methods C57BL/6 (H-2b) mice were used as the donors and Balb/c (H-2d) mice as the recipients in allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (BMT).Groups were set as total body radiation (TBI) control group (n =4),GVHD group (n =10),simple BM transplantation group (n =10) and normal control group (n =4).For TBI control group,mice were subjected to TBI but did not receive BMT after radiation.For GVHD group,5 days before TBI,gentamycin (320 mg/L) and erythromycin (250 mg/L) were added into the drinking water,and on the day of transplantation,mice received one total dose of 8.0 Gy 60Coγ TBI,and within 5 h,2 × 106 C57BL/6 BM cells and 1 × 107 C57BL/6 spleen cells were transfused per mouse via the tail vein.For simple BMT group,the pretreatment was the same as GVHD group,and mice received only 2 × 106 C57BL/6 BM cells per mouse via the tail vein.The mental status,activity,posture,fur,weight,and stool were observed after transplantation.Survival time of each mouse was recorded,survival rate was calculated,and survival curve was drawn.Pathological examination was done for the liver,skin,small intestine and BM on the brink of death.Results The median survival time (MST) in TBI control group,GVHD group and BMT group was (9.0 ± 0.7),(32.0 ± 3.2) and ( 17.5 ± 1.6) days respectively,and there was significant difference between every two groups (P ＜ 0.01 ).Pathological examination in TBI control group showedhematopoiesis exhaustion.GVHD group showed acute GVHD symptoms 10-13 days after allo-BMT,and the pathological changes of the skin,liver and small intestine corresponded to those of Ⅰ to Ⅱ degree of GVHD.Simple BMT group also showed acute GVHD symptoms 10-13 days after alloBMT,but their GVHD manifestation and histological changes were less serious and only 0 to Ⅰ degree of GVHD could be seen.ConclusionStable acute GVHD model can be constructed by transfusion of allogeneic BM cells and spleen cells into Balb/c mice after lethal TBI.
