Abstract:
Objective:To explore the feasibility of inguinal subcutaneous immunotherapy for allergic rhinitis ( AR ) in mice. Methods:36 female BALB/c mice were divided randomly into six groups( n=6 per group) including the control A,the model A, the treatment A groups,and the control B,the model B,the treatment B groups(inguinal subcutaneous immunotherapy for group A, cervical back subcutaneous immunotherapy for for group B). AR model was established with ovalbumin. At 25 to 55 days,ovalbumin im-munotherapy were performed in treatment groups,once two days,15 times totally. After intranasal rechallenge was performed at 56 to 62 days the AR symptom scores were documented. The eosinophils(EOS)in the nasal mucosa were measured by chromotropic acid 2R staining. Ovalbumin-specific IgE( OVA-sIgE) in the serum and expression of interferon-γ and interleukin-4 in the nasal lavage were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay meanwhile the ratio of interferon-γ and interleukin-4 was calc μlated. SPSS17. 0 software was used to analyze the data. Results:Before treatment ,the AR symptom scores of the model and treatment groups were more than 5. After treatment,the treatment A group were less than 5. The EOS count of the control A,model A,treatment A groups and the control B,model B, treatment B groups was 0. 78 ± 0. 31, 21. 60 ± 2. 90, 10. 43 ± 2. 56, 0. 83 ± 0. 46, 22. 44 ± 3. 39, 23. 40 ± 4. 24, respectively. The EOS count of the treatment A group was significantly lower than those in model A group ( P<0. 05 ) . There was no significant difference between treatment B and model B group ( P>0. 05 ) . OVA-sIgE expressed was negative in control groups and positive in other groups. The ratio of interferon-γ and interleukin-4 was 10. 75 ± 3. 38,10. 38 ± 3. 08,3. 02 ± 0. 69,2. 71 ± 0. 89,2. 52 ± 0. 30,5. 45±1. 41,respectively. The ratio in treatment A group was significantly higher than those in model A group(P<0. 05). There was no significant difference between treatment B and model B group ( P>0. 05 ) . Conclusion: Inguinal subcutaneous immunotherapy has a good effect on this disease. It spends short time ,has simple operation and good feasibility,which is a novel treatment method for AR in mice.
