ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the effects of CD4+CD25+Treg cell on the allograft after infusion of dendritic cells (DCs) with low expression of CD40 from donor in mouse heart transplantation.Methods In vitro,mouse bone marrow-derived DCs were infected by CD40-RNAi lentiviral vector,and tolerogenic DCs (Tol-DCs) with low expression of CD40 were prepared.A heterotopic abdominal heart transplantation model was established in mice,and the other three groups that were control group,noninfected DC group and lentivirus infected DC group were designed correspondingly.Cardiac allograft survival time was recorded and pathological grading for acute rejection was assessed on the 7 d after heterotopic abdominal heart transplantation.Concentrations of CD4+CD25+Treg cells in peripheral blood were analyzed before and after transplantation by flow cytometry.Results After 48 h infection of DCs by CD40-RNAi lentiviral vector in vitro,the expression of CD40 mRNA was down-regulated significantly,whose inhibition rate was 80.9%.The expression of CD40 was decreased from 74.37% ±4.08% to 40.07% ± 4.03% (P<0.05) after 48 h infection.Compared with the control group and the noninfected DC group,the cardiac allograft survival time was significantly prolonged in the CD40-RNAi lentivirus infected DC group,which was (14 ± 4) d(P<0.01) ; concentrations of CD4+CD25+Treg cells in peripheral blood were increased both on the 3 d and the 7 d after transplantation (P<0.05) ; the pathological grading for acute rejection was decreased on the 7 d after transplantation (P<0.05).Conclusion The CD4+CD25+Treg cell in peripheral blood was protective to cardiac allograft in prolonging its survival time in mouse heart transplantation.
