摘要: NOD/LtSz-prkdc(scid)/prkdc(scid) (non-obese diabetic-severe combine immunodeficiency; NOD-scid) mice grafted with human peripheral blood lymphoid cells have been used as an in vivo humanized mouse model various studies. However, cytotoxic T are induced this during immune responses, which gives misleading results. To assist grafting of lymphocytes without the induction cells, we investigated effects helper type 1 (Th1) and Th2 cytokines on lymphocyte migration, well production immunoglobulin deposited glomeruli immunodeficiency virus-1 (HIV-1) infection using NOD-scid mice. Administration interleukin-18 (IL-18) IL-12 enhanced CD4+ CD8+ mice, whereas co-administration prevented due to interferon-gamma-dependent apoptosis. Immunoglobulin A (IgA) deposits were observed treated IL-18 alone, but not those given phosphate-buffered saline, or + IL-12. high rate HIV was also IL-18-treated group. Together, these results indicate that may be effective for migration except apoptosis regulation class-switching IgA. IL-18-administered provide a useful small study IgA nephropathy.
