Abstract:

    Background & Objective: Dendritic cells(DCs) play an important role in directing immune response toward TH1(T-Helper 1) or TH2(T-Helper 2). These cells may induce distinct cytokine patterns in different tissues. So the pattern of cytokine induction by liver and spleen DCs may differ from each other. To investigate the difference between immune responses in the liver(as a non-lymphoid organ and tolerogenic tissue) and the spleen(as a lymphoid organ and an immunogenic tissue), we analyzed the function of spleen and liver DCs in the induction of TH1 and TH2 immune responses. Method: DCs were isolated from the liver and spleen of normal C57BL/6 mice by enzymatic digestion and nycodenz centrifugation gradient. Isolated DCs were pulsed with a proper concentration of myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein peptide(MOG35-55). About 6 × 105 pulsed DCs from liver and spleen were injected to the footpad of two different groups of mice. Unpulsed DCs were injected to the control group. After 5 days, mononuclear cells(MNCs) of the poplital lymph nodes were isolated from immunized mice and cultured in the presence and absence of MOG35-55 for 96 hours. The supernatant of the cultured cells was collected and the amount of produced cytokines(IL-10: Interleukin-10 and IFN- γ : Interferon gamma ) was measured by ELISA(Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay). Results: Our findings showed that IL-10 and IFN- γ production in mice immunized with DCs pulsed with MOG35-55 was significantly higher than the control group(p=0.004). There was no significant difference in IFN- γ production between mice immunized with liver DCs and those immunized with splenic DCs, but the amount of IL-10 production in the first group was higher than the second group(p=0.01). Conclusion: It seems that higher IL-10 production induced by liver DCs may be one of the main factors in down regulation of immune responses in this organ.

بررسی نقش سلو لهای دندریتیک کبد و طحال در القای پاس خهای سلولی ۱ th و ۲ th

زمینه و هدف: سلول های دندریتیک یکی از عوامل موثر در هدایت پاسخ ایمنی به سمت سلول های th1 یا th2 ( t helper cell ) محسوب می شوند. سلول های دندریتیک ممکن است موجب تولید سیتوکین با الگوی متفاوت در بافت های مختلف شوند. احتمالاً الگوی تولید سیتوکین توسط سلول های دندریتیک کبد با طحال متفاوت می باشد. به منظور بررسی علت تفاوت پاسخ های ایمنی در بافت کبد (به عنوان یک بافت غیر لنفاوی و تولروژن) و طحال (به ...

CCR4 participation in Th type 1 (mycobacterial) and Th type 2 (schistosomal) anamnestic pulmonary granulomatous responses.

CCR4 is purported to be a Th type 2 (Th2) cell-biased receptor but its functional role is unclear. Recent studies suggest that chemokine receptor expression and function are more complex in vivo and raise doubts regarding restricted CCR4 expression by Th2 cells. To address these issues, we analyzed the role of CCR4 in highly polarized models of Th type 1 (Th1) and Th2 cell-mediated pulmonary gr...

Th-1, Th-2 Cytokines Profile among Madurella mycetomatis Eumycetoma Patients

Eumycetoma is a progressive and destructive chronic granulomatous subcutaneous inflammatory disease caused by certain fungi, the most common being Madurella mycetomatis. The host defence mechanisms against fungi usually range from an early non-specific immune response to activation and induction of specific adaptive immune responses by the production of Th-1 and Th-2 cytokines. The aim of this ...

, AND TOMIO TADA 445 Preparation of Th - 1 and Th - 2 Specific for KLH

A number of recent reports indicate the existence of more than one type of helper T cell (I-6). A previous publication from our laboratory (3) demonstrated two types of carrier-specific helper T cells that independently and synergistically exert helper effects on the hapten-specific antibody response. One type (Thl) 1 is a more conventional helper T cell that helps hapten-specific B cells only ...

Pivotal Advance: Th-1 cytokines inhibit, and Th-2 cytokines promote fibrocyte differentiation.

CD14+ peripheral blood monocytes can differentiate into fibroblast-like cells called fibrocytes, which are associated with and are at least partially responsible for wound healing and fibrosis in multiple organ systems. Signals regulating fibrocyte differentiation are poorly understood. In this study, we find that when added to human PBMCs cultured in serum-free medium, the profibrotic cytokine...
