Impact of vaccine therapy using nuclear histone H1 on allograft survival in experimental organ transplantation.

Abstract:

BACKGROUND:We recently reported that autoreactive antibody (Ab) against nuclear histone H1 had been identified as an immunosuppressive factor in a rat tolerogenic orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) model. The present study aimed to determine whether the up-regulation of antihistone H1 Ab by histone H1 vaccination leads to tolerance. METHODS:Histone H1-immunized rats were established by intraperitoneal vaccination with histone H1 at every two-weekly interval. By using mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR) and heterotopic heart transplantation (HHT), the alloreactive T cell response and allograft survival of histone H1-immunized rats were compared with those of control rats. Cytokine and cellular profiles in histone H1-immunized rats were determined by reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) and flow cytometry. RESULTS:Immunization with histone H1 in Freund's adjuvant induced alloreactive T cell unresponsiveness and prolonged heterotopic heart allograft survival. It also down-regulated the expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II and CD25 on splenic cells, elevated the T helper cell type 2 (Th2) skewing index (Interleukin (IL)-4/interferon (IFN)-gamma ratio or IL-4/IL-2 ratio) and modified the serum cytokine profiles. CONCLUSIONS:The present results suggest that histone H1 vaccination of transplant recipients, which leads to the production of immunosuppressive factor and the modification of the cytokine/cellular profiles, has great potential as a tolerance therapy for prospective transplantation.
