Abstract:
Objective:To study the effects of Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine on eosinophil apoptosis,protein expression of Fas and bcl-2 in lung tissues of asthmatic guinea pig.Methods:30 guinea pigs were randomly divided into NS,asthma and Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine group.A guinea pig model of asthma was estbalished with OVA(ovalbumin).Each guinea pig of Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine group was injected intramuscularly with 22.5?g of Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine 10 days before OVA immunization.After the last challenge,TdT-mediated dUTP nick end labeling (TUNEL)technique was used to determine the apoptosis of eosinophils and immunohistochemistry method was used to determine protein expression of Fas and bcl-2 in lung tissue sections.Results:Guinea pigs of Mycobacterium vaccae vaccine group had a higher AI(apoptosis index) of eosinophils in lung tissues[(23.8?5.4)%]than that of asthma group[(4.6?0.7)%,P
