Abstract:
Objective:To explore the therapeutic effects of dendritic cells (DC) modified by the dust-mite-allergen(Der p1) gene on mouse model of allergic rhinitis (AR).
Methods:DC modified by the Der p1 gene (Der p1-DC) were prepared.Using random number table, 24 Balb\c mice were divided into four groups: immature DC (imDC)/AR group, dexamethasone/AR group, Der p1-DC/AR group and control group, with 6 mice in each group.AR mouse model was built with Der p1 and the mouse model of AR was established.The AR mice were respectively given by abdominal injection of Der p1-DC, imDC and dexamethasone.Normal control mice were treated with physiologic saline.ELISA method was used for determining the content of IgE, IgG1and histamine in blood.The relative expression of mRNA of IL-4 and IL-13 on nasal mucosa with protein was analyzed by RT-PCR and Westen blot methods.All the data were statistically analyzed by SPSS 19.0 statistical software, and the variance analysis was used in multiple groups of average samples.
Results:The contents of IgE, IgG1 and histamine in the mice of Der p1-DC/AR group were lower than those in imDC/AR group ((0.560±0.110) OD 450 nm vs (1.150±0.280) OD 450 nm, (0.690±0.054) OD 450 nm vs (0.920±0.125) OD 450 nm, (4 145±670) pg/ml vs (7 685±669) pg/ml, t value was 4.80, 4.14, 9.16, respectively, all P<0.05), and the expression of IL-4 and IL-13 on nasal mucosa in Der p1-DC/AR group was remarkedly lower than those in imDC/AR group (0.41±0.25 vs 1.59±1.02, 0.26±0.01 vs 1.10±0.09, t value was 2.75, 22.72, respectively, all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference between the mice treated with Der p1-DC and dexamethasone group.
Conclusions:The results showed that Der p1-DC could reduce inflammation in AR mice and decrease the expression of IL-4 and IL-13. It suggested that Der p1-DC can be used in the immunotherapy of AR mouse.
