Abstract:
Objective To study the effects of CTLA4-Ig on mu rine allergic contact dermatitis.Methods Mice were exposed to DNFB to induce allergic contact dermatitis and were i njected with CTLA4-Ig.Ear swelling was measured 24h after antigen challenge.Splenocytes from treated mice were assayed for their ability to prolif erate in response to DNFB or FITC stimulation in vitro.Results Profound inhibition of contact hypersensitivity response(CHS )was shown by 69.7%in mice treated with CTLA4-Ig compared with mice treate d with PBS control.CT-LA4-Ig-treated mice displayed DNFB-specific tolerance,but exhibited a vigorous immune response to FITC when re-sensitizing 14days after the fir st challenge.Adoptive transfer of l ymphocytes from CTLA4-Ig-treated mice could induce inhibition of CHS in recipien t mice.Conclusions CTLA4-Ig can inhibit CHS by blocking B7/CD28co-stimulatory pathway,which provides a new way to suppress typeⅣallergic reaction.[
