Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Xenogeneic corneal fragments (guinea pig) are highly resistant to immune rejection in the anterior chamber of mouse eyes. Because guinea pigs and mice are discordant (i.e., mouse serum normally contains guinea pig reactive xenoantibodies), we wished to determine the extent to which xenogeneic corneal fragments placed intraocularly in normal and specifically sensitized mice activated xenoreactive T and B cells. METHODS:Guinea pig corneas, deprived surgically of epithelium, were cut into fragments and inserted into the anterior chamber of eyes of BALB/c mice, adjacent to the central cornea of the recipient. Antibody (immunoglobulin [Ig]M, IgG) and delayed type hypersensitivity (DTH) immune responses of recipient mice to guinea pig xenoantigens were assessed. The fate of xenogeneic cornea implants was assessed in mice immunized systemically to guinea pig antigens. RESULTS:Guinea pig spleen cells and corneal fragments implanted s.c. induced within 2 weeks of immunization both DTH and IgG antibodies to guinea pig xenoantigens. By contrast, xenogeneic corneal fragments implanted in the anterior chamber of mouse eyes evoked no change in recipient humoral immune status and induced mild guinea pig-specific DTH only after 5 weeks. Presensitization of mice to guinea pig xenoantigens failed to increase the proportion of grafts that were regarded as rejected, but the onset of rejection in failed grafts occurred earlier than in unsensitized recipients. Active systemic immunization of mice bearing intracameral guinea pig corneal fragments failed to curtail the grafts' survival. Guinea pig corneal fragments implanted in the anterior chamber of normal mice failed to induce anterior chamber-associated immune deviation. CONCLUSIONS:Xenogeneic corneal fragments implanted in the anterior chamber of eyes of normal mice display strikingly reduced immunogenicity, and an inability to induce anterior chamber-associated immune deviation. These properties are discussed in terms of the vulnerability of guinea pig corneal tissue to immune rejection within the eye.
