Abstract:
Aim To study the immunoregulatory effect of Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine on asthmatic guinea pig.Methods 30 guinea pigs were randomly divided into NS,asthma and Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine groups. A guinea pig model of asthma was formed with ovalbumin.Every guinea pig of Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine group was intramuscularly injected with 22.5 ?g Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine 10 days before ovalbumin immunization.mRNA expressions of IL-4,IL-5 and IFN-? in lung tissue,total IgE and ovalbumin-specific IgE in serum were determined. Results For Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine group guinea pigs, mRNA expressions(optical density value) of IL-4(0.060?0.018) and IL-5(0.052?0.006)in lung tissue were significantly lower than those of asthma group(0.111?0.025,0.106?0.030 respectively; both P
