An asthma model developed in the guinea pig by intranasal application of 2,4-toluene diisocyanate.

Abstract:

:Guinea pigs were sensitized with 2,4-toluene diisocyanate (TDI) by a repetitive application onto the bilateral nasal vestibules once a day for 5 consecutive days. When these animals were further treated with TDI for additional 9 weeks, a number of these animals exhibited external symptoms similar to those in human asthmatics, such as labored breathing characterized by prolonged expiration phases. Pathological examination of the lung of these animals clearly revealed contraction of bronchioles where hypertrophy of the smooth muscle and hypersecretion of mucin were evident. Furthermore, infiltration of numerous inflammatory cells, especially eosinophils, was observed in the peribronchial area. In these animals, the histamine-releasing activity of lung tissues was also demonstrated after challenge with TDI-guinea pig serum albumin conjugate. The histamine-releasing activity was found to be elevated to a maximum level during the first 2 weeks after sensitization and to remain at a constant level throughout the rest of the treatment period. Similar time courses were observed with respect to serum levels of TDI-specific antibodies, IgE and IgG. A survey of a series of 28 separate experiments using totally 565 animals indicated that the incidence of animals exhibiting an asthmatic response was 35% on average, ranging from 0 to 58.3%. Furthermore, the serum level of TDI-specific IgG, rather than that of TDI-specific IgE, was rather closely related to the incidence of asthmatic responses in TDI-treated guinea pigs.

  • Higher frequencies of CD161+ circulating T lymphocytes in allergic rhinitis patients compared to healthy donors.

    abstract:BACKGROUND:Th17 is a subset of T-helper lymphocytes that produce proinflammatory cytokines, mainly IL-17. Serum IL-17 is increased in allergic patients and relates to clinical severity. Recently, it has been reported that CD161 is a highly upregulated gene in Th17 clones and all IL-17-producing cells are contained in C...
