Abstract:
AIM: To test the effects of FTY720 on mouse intestinal allografts.METHODS: C_3H mice(H-2~k)were used as donor and C57BL/6 mice(H-2~b) as recipients.FTY720 group,allogeneic control group and isogeneic control group were set up.6 and 14 days after transplantation,murine intestinal grafts were harvested for histologic assessment.Lymphocytes were collected from mesenteric lymph nodes(MLN),Peyer's patch(PP),lamina propria lymphocytes(LPL) and intraepithelial lymphocytes(IEL) in the graft,then were analyzed by cytometry.RESULTS: Rejection was inhibited in FTY720 group at the 6th post-transplant day,although not at the 14th day.Recipient CD4~+ and CD8~+ T cells,CD19~+ B cells,as well as ?? TCR lymphocytes,were greatly reduced by FTY720 therapy.The similar action of FTY720 was also revealed in Gr1~+CD11b~+ monocytes.CONCLUSION: FTY720 is efficient on alleviating allo-immune response by reducing the infiltration of both lymphocytes and monocytes into the graft in a mouse intestinal transplantation model.
