RESUMEN
Objective To observe the immunosuppressive function of a novel HLA-derived peptide, RDP1258, and to investigate the mechanisms in vivo. Methods A peptide derived from HLA, RDP1258, was chemically synthesized. The effects of the peptide on alloreactive cytotoxic activities of rat spleen cells in vivo were observed using ~(3)H-TDR method. As compared with the HO-1 inducer hemin and the HO-1 inhibitor zinc protoporphyrin (ZnPP), the HO enzyme activity was analyzed by enzyme chemistry method. Results The in vivo administration of the synthetic HLA-derived peptide can obviously inhibit the proliferation of rat spleen cells stimulated by isoantigen and mitogen, and resulted in upregulation of splenic heme oxygenase activity and rapid upregulation of HO-1 protein expression. Conclusion RDP1258 inhibits the proliferation of rat spleen cells induced by mitogen and isoantigen probably through enhancing the HO-1 activity.
RESUMEN
Objective: To study the immunosuppression function of a novel HLA-derived pepride, RDP1258,and it' s mechanisms. Methods:A peptide derived from HLA,RDP1258,was chemically synthesized.The effects of the peptide on alloreactive cytotoxic activities of rat splenocytes were observed using 3H-TdR method.The heme oxygenase-1(HO-1) activity was analyzed by the enzyme chemistry method.Results:The results showed that the synthetic HLA-derived peptide can obviusly inhibit the proliferation of rat splenocytes and the peptide inhibited HO-1 activty in a dose-dependment manner in vitro.Conclusion:HO-1 might participate in the RDP1258 inhibiting the proliferation of rat splenocytes induced by mitogen and isoantigen.
RESUMEN
Objective To observe the effects of a novel HLA-derived peptide, RDP1258, on the human peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) proliferation to ConA and MLR, and to investigate the mechanisms. Methods Peptide RDP1258 was chemically synthesized. The effects of the peptide on alloreactive cytotoxic activities of human PBMCs were observed using 3HTdR incorporation method. RDP1258, HLA-B2702.75-84, and control peptide were administrated respectively in every experiment. The activity of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) was analyzed by the enzymochemical method. Results The results showed that the synthetic HLA-derived peptide could obviously inhibit the proliferation of human PBMCs and inhibited HO activity in a dose-dependent manner in vitro. Conclusion HO-1 might participate in the inhibitory effect of RDP1258 on the proliferation of human PBMCs induced by mitogen and isoantigen.
