ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES:
The classic immunotherapy has the inconvenience and the risk of anaphylaxis. Recent reports revealed that immunostimulatory DNA sequences (CpG motif, ISS-ODN) have been shown to act as strong Th1 response-inducing adjuvants and DNA based vaccination might be an effective therapeutic option for the treatment of allergic disease. In our study, we investigated whether ISS-ODN have anti-allergic effect in the mouse rhinitis model of Dermatophagoides farinae (Der f), the most common allergen in Korea. MATERIALS ANDMETHOD:
C57BL/6 mice were sensitized with crude extract of Der f extract. After injection of ISS-ODN, several parameters of allergic response were evaluated.RESULTS:
Injection with ISS-ODN suppressed itching symptom, eosinophilic infiltration into nasal mucosa and the splenic T cell proliferation after Der f allergen challenge in the murine model of allergic rhinitis. However, injection with ISS-ODN did not show a detectable Der f-specific IgE suppression.CONCLUSION:
Our findings suggested ISS-ODN have an anti-allergic effect in the allergic rhinitis model of Der f allergen. House dust mite allergy can be reduced by the injection with ISS-ODN.
