Administration of niridazole to Lewis rats beginning 2 days before sensitization with guinea pig spinal cord in combination with immunologic adjuvants exerted a dose related suppressive influence on development of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). A daily dose of 75 mg/kg completely prevented clinical neurologic signs as well as markedly suppressed occurrence of immunohistopathologic manifestations of this autoimmune disease. A higher daily dose level of niridazole, i.e., 100 mg/k, also inhibited EAE but was associated with neurotoxic manifestations. 相似文献

Guinea pig myelin basic protein (MBP)-liposomes were prepared and fixed with 0.2% glutaraldehyde (GA). Lewis rats were treated with glutaraldehyde-fixed MBP-liposomes (MBP-L-GA) or with cytochrome-c-liposomes (CYC-L-GA), 7 days before and 7 days after challenge with MBP in CFA. Rats treated with MBP-L-GA, but not with CYC-L-GA, were very well protected against the clinical manifestations of EAE. The protection was better than that obtained after treatment with conventional MBP-liposomes (without glutaraldehyde). Furthermore, when grown in vitro for 72 hr in the presence of MBP, lymphocytes from rats treated with MBP-L-GA and challenged with MBP in CFA exhibited a marked decrease in their ability to transfer EAE to normal syngeneic recipients. 相似文献

Pretreatment of Lewis rats with guinea pig (GP) myelin basic protein (MBP) coupled to syngeneic spleen leukocytes (SL) suppressed the subsequent induction of experimental allegic encephalomyelitis (EAE) with GP-MBP in Freund's complete adjuvant. The degree of suppression correlated positively with the amount of antigen coupled to the SL. GP-MBP coupled to syngeneic red blood cells (RBC) also resulted in suppression of EAE and the extent of the suppression was related to the dose of cells. These regimens of pretreatment also resulted in a decrease in the in vitro lymphocyte proliferative response to GP-MBP and in the extent of perivascular cuffing in the spinal cord. No decrease in the anti-MBP antibody response was detected in rats pretreated with either GP-MBP-SL or GP-MBP-RBC conjugates. Transfer of lymph node cells from rats pretreated with GP-MBP-RBC resulted in a decrease in disease severity in recipients. It is concluded that prior administration of MBP-cell conjugates is an effective way of suppressing the symptoms of EAE. 相似文献

Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), an experimental autoimmune disease of the central nervous system (CNS), is readily induced in many mammalian species by immunization with CNS tissue or myelin basic protein (MBP) purified from the CNS. EAE has been frequently used as a model for multiple sclerosis (MS). However, EAE generally presents as an acute monophasic disease in the adult animal after immunization with MBP. After recovery, the animal is resistant to rechallenge with encephalitogen (1). Two exceptions to these observations have been reported. McFarlin et al. (2) reported that a variable number of Lewis rats showed signs of a single, mild relapse about a week after recovery from MBP-induced acute EAE. Panitch and Ciccone (3) have reported induction of recurrent EAE in rats immunized with human MBP. Chronic, relapsing EAE has been induced in the mouse; however, an apparent requirement for CNS tissue had been noted (4, 5). Recently, during the course of a series of experiments on the induction of EAE in SJL/J, PL/J, and (SJL/J X PL/J)F1 (SPL F1) mice, it was observed that the F1 mice frequently had paralytic relapses after recovery from MBP-induced symptoms. Experiments were initiated to examine this phenomenon, and the findings are presented below. 相似文献

This protocol details a method to actively induce experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE), a widely used animal model for studies of multiple sclerosis. EAE is induced by stimulating T-cell-mediated immunity to myelin antigens. Active induction of EAE is accomplished by immunization with myelin antigens emulsified in adjuvant. This protocol focuses on induction of EAE in mice; however, the same principles apply to EAE induction in other species. EAE in rodents is manifested typically as ascending flaccid paralysis with inflammation targeting the spinal cord. However, more diverse clinical signs can occur in certain strain/antigen combinations in rodents and in other species, reflecting increased inflammation in the brain. 相似文献

Experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) is a widely used animal model of the human demyelinating disease multiple sclerosis. EAE is initiated by immunization with myelin antigens in adjuvant or by adoptive transfer of myelin-specific T cells, resulting in inflammatory infiltrates and demyelination in the central nervous system. Induction of EAE in rodents typically results in ascending flaccid paralysis with inflammation primarily targeting the spinal cord. This protocol describes passive induction of EAE by adoptive transfer of T cells isolated from mice primed with myelin antigens into na?ve mice. The advantages of using this method versus active induction of EAE are discussed. 相似文献

The current investigations have revealed that Lewis rats preimmunized with BP in CFA, and after recovery from the first episode of EAE, developed a second mild attack of EAE after challenge with BP/CFA at specified times. However, preimmunization of Lewis rats with BP complexed to LPS in CFA protects animals for a longer time from a second attack induced by BP/CFA challenge. 相似文献

Immune responses to myelin basic protein in mycobacterial-induced suppression of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Pretreatment of guinea pigs with complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA) 21 days prior to injection with myelin basic protein (BP) in CFA resulted in marked attenuation of clinical and pathologic manifestations of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). Delayed hypersensitivity skin tests to homologous BP were likewise depressed in protected animals. The protected guinea pigs also demonstrated diminished in vitro reactivity to BP as assessed by BP-induced proliferative response of peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) and BP-induced inhibition of macrophage migration. Broad-based suppression of immunologic reactivity did not occur in these animals, as manifested by larger skin tests to PPD, a greater proliferative response to old tuberculin (OT), by PEC and peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL), as well as marked PPD-induced inhibition of macrophage migration. Diminution of the degree of cell-mediated reactivity to BP may be one of the mechanisms by which prior treatment with CFA suppresses subsequent development of EAE. 相似文献

B. pertussis protein fraction obtained by precipitation with trichloroacetic acid (TCA) stimulated the development of clinically and histologically pronounced experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) in guinea pigs when introduced together with a heterologous cerebral antigen, the two compounds forming an encephalitogenic mixture. The adjuvant activity of the TCA-precipitated fraction depended on its dose. The sera of the animals with EAE induced by the encephalitogenic mixture containing B. pertussis cells or TCA-precipitated fraction showed a cytopathogenic effect in the monolayer culture of newborn rat cerebellum cells. The cytopathogenic effect was more pronounced in the sera obtained at the period of the development of the clinical symptoms of the disease (days 14-18), while the cytotoxic effect of the sera obtained on day 30 after immunization decreased irrespective of the manifestations of EAE, this decrease being in correlation with the dose of the TCA-precipitated fraction in the encephalitogenic mixture. 相似文献

Irradiation of recipient Lewis rats 6–24 hr prior to injection of sensitized lymph node cells (LNC) altered the pattern of transferred experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE). Recipients subjected to total body irradiation in doses ranging from 500 to 1000 rads developed paralysis; nonirradiated control recipients did not do so. Histopathologic changes of EAE, in terms of number of descrete cellular infiltrates, were potentiated in the total body irradiated recipients. Among LNC recipients subjected to regional irradiation (850 rads) of the head or lower spinal column, paralysis was observed only in those animals where the irradiation impinged upon the spinal cord. Cellular infiltrates of EAE were numerically more common in the irradiated region of the neuraxis. The findings are discussed in terms of irradiation rendering the central nervous system of animals and man more vulnerable to autoimmune injury. 相似文献

Intact B-cell activity is essential for complete expression of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis in Lewis rats 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The mechanisms of the inhibitory effect of the serum thymic factor (FTS) on allograft immunity have been studied on both cellular and humoral immune responses of skin allografted mice. FTS-induced suppression of allogeneic skin graft rejection was correlated with a transient diminution of in vivo alloreactive CTL production in the spleen, whereas the generation of allo-anti-H-2 antibodies was not affected. The involvement of suppressor cells in the effect of FTS was supported by the observation that irradiated spleen cells from FTS-treated recipients (bearing a 9-day allograft) suppressed the in vitro CTL generation. 相似文献

Prevention of experimental allergic encephalomyelitis by nonencephalitogenic basic peptides 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The biological properties of the chymotrypsin-treated encephalitogenic basic protein are described. The basic protein, isolated from bovine spinal cord, was digested with chymotrypsin and filtered through Sephadex gel resulting in three distinct well-separated peaks starting at the void volume of the column. Tubes common to each peak were combined into Fractions I, II, and III, respectively. More than 90% of the original protein was recovered in the three fractions. Fraction II, representing 76% of the original protein, was nonencephalitogenic when tested in guinea pigs at 0.010-, 0.025-, and 0.500-mg doses emulsified in complete Freund's adjuvant. Guinea pigs immunized with Fraction II were protected from EAE when challenged with encephalitogenic emulsions. A critical dose of 1.0 mg completely protected the animals from disease, while partial protection was obtained with lower doses. In addition to producing circulating antibodies, animals sensitized with Fraction II, the encephalitogenic tryptophan peptide or the basic protein displayed a delayed-type hypersensitivity response when skin tested with either of the three antigens. The positive skin reactivity in animals sensitized with Fraction II was not followed by EAE during 5 months of observation. In contrast, animals sensitized with extracts from bovine tissues other than the central nervous system were not protected from disease when challenged with encephalitogenic emulsions.The main finding here reported is the prevention of EAE with nonencephalitogenic peptides derived from the parent EAE-producing protein. The peptides retain the ability to induce delayed-type hypersensitivity and provide antigens to study the role of delayed hypersensitivity in experimental allergic encephalomyelitis. 相似文献

Guinea pigs injected with myelin basic protein (BP) in incomplete Freund's adjuvant (IFA) fail to develop experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE) after challenge with BP in complete Freund's adjuvant (CFA). Such protected animals fail to manifest significant in vitro lymphocyte proliferative responses to BP 13 days after BP/CFA in comparison to animals with EAE. Other BP/IFA-BP/CFA animals develop significant albeit modest responses to BP 21 and 28 days after BP/CFA but do not develop EAE. There was little effect on the response to tuberculin (OT). Guinea pigs receiving only BP/IFA develop a modest transient reactivity to BP and no EAE. CFA alone after BP/IFA elicits a normal response to OT and has no effect on the response to BP. 相似文献
