Contact allergic response to dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) in rats: Insight from sensitization phase
چکیده انگلیسی

Contact hypersensitivity (CHS) is a T-cell-mediated skin inflammatory reaction to cutaneous exposure to small sensitizing chemicals, haptens. Majority of CHS studies were conducted in mice and there is paucity of data in other experimental animals. In the present study, characteristics of contact hypersensitivity reaction to dinitrochlorobenzene (DNCB) were determined in Th1-prone Dark Agouti (DA) rats by evaluating sensitization phase as a function of time-dependent changes in draining lymph nodes (DLN). Apart from basic indices of DLN activity (cellularity and proliferation), the production of cytokines relevant for CHS induction, interleukin-6 (IL-6), interferon-γ (IFN-γ), interleukin-17 (IL-17) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) was analyzed. Anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10) production by DLN cells was determined as well. Highest production of IL-6, IFN-γ and IL-17 in sensitized animals was observed at day 3 after DNCB application, with a decrease at day 5. Increased messages for IFN-γ and IL-17 were noted at this time point. In contrast to inflammatory cytokines, anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-4 (IL-4) was undetectable during the entire sensitization phase. Differential pattern (IL-6 and IFN-γ) and level (IFN-γ and IL-17) of inflammatory cytokine production was noted in sensitized Th2-prone Albino Oxford (AO) rats. Similarly to DA rats, no changes in IL-4 were noted in AO rats. Strain-dependent differences in inflammatory cytokine production seem to be based on anti-inflammatory cytokine interleukin-10 (IL-10). Production of IFN-γ concomitantly with undetectable IL-4 in both strains classify rat CHS to DNCB as Th1/type 1 reaction. Detection of IL-17 in sensitized DLN cells points to the involvement of TIL-17 cells in rat contact hypersensitivity.
