Abstract:
OBJECTIVE To investigate the immunoregulatory role of tolerogenic dendritic cells(TolDC) in allergic airway inflammation in mouse model of allergic rhinitis(AR).METHODS A total of 24 Balb/c mice were equally and randomly divided into 4 groups with 6 mice in each group. AR group was established with oval bumin(OVA) sensitization and challenge, meanwhile the physiological saline(PBS) sensitization and challenge as the control group. AR group were treated by adoptive transfer of TolDC as treatment group. And treatment group were injected intraperitoneally with TGF-β/IL-10R neutralizing antibody as blockade group. In each group, allergic nasal symptoms score, inflammatory cell infiltration in lung, the expression of Th1/Th2-derived cytokines in the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid(BALF) and nasal lavage fluid(NALF), the expression of OVA-specific serum IgE and the expression of Treg in lung were measured.RESULTS The mouse model of OVA-induced AR was successfully developed. Compared with AR group, treatment group exhibited lower allergic nasal symptoms score, a decrease in inflammatory cell infiltration in lung, lower expression of Th1/Th2-derived cytokines in BALF and NALF and OVA-specific serum IgE, as well as up-regulation of Treg in lung, which were abolished by TGF-β/IL-10 neutralizing antibody shown in blockade group.CONCLUSION TolDC suppress airway inflammation in AR by inducing regulatory T cells through TGF-β/IL-10-dependent mechanisms.
