ABSTRACT
Aim Establish a novel mouse model of airway goblet cell hyperplasia and mucus hypersecretion.Method BALB/c mice were sensitized subcutaneously with ovalbumin(OVA) allergens in aluminium hydroxide at d 0,re-sensitized once intraperitoneally d 10 after first sensitization,and challenged with OVA aerosolly daliy from d 15 to d 21 after first sensitization.Inflammatory cell number in BALF,eosinophil infiltration in the lung tissue with HE stain and goblet cells in the bronchial mucous membrane with PAS stain were examined.Dexamethasone was employed to validate the model.Results Mice sensitized and challenged with OVA showed a significantly hyperplasia of goblet cells in the bronchial mucous membrane,increased mucus in the alveolar cavity,eosinophil infiltration in the lung tissue and increased number of inflammatory cells in BALF.Those pathological changes were inhibited by dexamethasone and mIL-2 plasmid.Conclusion This model helps to screen the new drugs for mucus hypersecretion and research on the pathological mechanism of airway mucus hypersecretion.
