Suppression of autoimmune diabetes by viral IL-10 gene transfer.
Th1 cell activation and cytokine production shift the balance between Th1 and Th2, favoring the up-regulation of proinflammatory activity that leads to destruction of insulin-producing pancreatic beta cells in type 1 diabetes. Th2-type cytokines, such as IL-10, have immune regulatory function. Administration of IL-10, or IL-10 gene transfer, prevents autoimmune diabetes in nonobese diabetic (NO...
متن کاملProphylactic effect of IL-10 gene transfer on induced autoimmune dacryoadenitis.
PURPOSE To evaluate the effect of viral IL-10 on the lacrimal gland immunopathologic response in the ocular surface disease, induced autoimmune dacryoadenitis. METHODS Disease was induced in rabbits by injecting inferior lacrimal glands with peripheral blood lymphocytes activated by 5 days of coculture with autologous acinar cells in a mixed-cell reaction. In the treated group, an adenoviral ...
متن کاملAlteration of IL-17 related protein expressions in experimental autoimmune myocarditis and inhibition of IL-17 by IL-10-Ig fusion gene transfer.
BACKGROUND T-helper (Th)1/Th2 cytokine balance plays an important role in the pathogenesis of myocarditis. Recently, some studies indicate that interleukin (IL)-17, known as a T cell (Th17)-derived proinflammatory cytokine, is the major mediator of tissue inflammation in inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Experimental autoimmune myocarditis (EAM) is a T cell-mediated autoimmune disease; howe...

15 صفحه اولProtection against autoimmune myocarditis by gene transfer of interleukin-10 by electroporation.
BACKGROUND Although immunosuppressive therapy for myocarditis has attracted a great deal of attention, its effectiveness is controversial. Interleukin (IL)-10 has a variety of immunomodulatory properties. Among the nonviral techniques for gene transfer in vivo, the direct injection of plasmid DNA into muscle is simple, inexpensive, and safe. METHODS AND RESULTS We examined the applicability o...
