Abstract
Introduction: Major histocompatibility complex II (MHC-II)-mediated antigen presentation contributes to the pathogenesis of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). Human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-DRB5 is an MHC-II molecule and this study aims to investigate its role and mechanisms in ITP development.
Methods: Guinea pig anti-mouse platelet (PLT) serum-induced ITP mice received tail vein injection of HLA-DRB5 overexpressing adenoviral vector/immune receptor expressed on myeloid cells-1 (IREM-1) monoclonal antibody (mAb). PLT count changes in mice blood were assessed by a hematology analyzer. MHC-II/CD80/CD86 expression in mice blood was measured by quantitative real-time-PCR and immunofluorescence assay. CD8+ T-cell proportion in mice blood was detected by flow cytometry.
Results: HLA-DRB5 overexpression exacerbated PLT reduction since the 5th day of the establishment of ITP mice model and enhanced MHC-II/CD80/CD86 expression upregulation as well as CD8+ T-cell ratio elevation in the blood of ITP mice, while its effects were reversed by IREM-1 mAb.
Conclusion: HLA-DRB5 overexpression upregulates MHC-II-mediated antigen presentation to CD8+ T cells, thus lowering PLT count in the ITP mice model.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
