Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the possibility of AG490 as a potential immunosuppressor and to explore its basic mechanism. Methods Human peripheral blood lymphocytes (both T and B) isolated from healthy donors were cultured with PHA or IL 2 separately for MLC to induce the proliferation of human lymphocytes. The inhibitory rate of human lymphocyte proliferation, the release of cytokines (IL 2, IL 6 and IFN ?) and the changes in differentiation of lymphocyte subsets were observed under different immunosuppressors of AG490, CsA and FK506. Results In vitro experiment, AG490 could suppress the proliferation of lymphocytes induced by various mechanisms (especially the CD3 + and CD4 + cells), obviously inhibit the IL 2 and IFN ? production, but could not inhibit the IL 6 production. Conclusion AG490 is a potential immunosuppressor.
