简介:Xenogeneic胸腺移植能高效地在athymic接受者导致特定的有免疫力的忍耐到施主抗原。然而,许多裸体老鼠在xenogeneic胸腺移植以后患自体免疫的疾病(帮助)超过10个星期。CD4+CD25+Foxp3+规章的T(Treg)房间最近决心在在人和老鼠使忍耐有免疫力起一个枢轴的作用。因此,我们在受不了的老鼠帮助的猪胸腺接枝裸体的圆周调查了Treg房间的这subpopulation。我们的结果证明鼠标CD4+CD25+T房间和到CD4+T房间的CD4+CD25+Foxp3+Treg房间的比率上的Foxp3,CTLA-4和GITR的表达式显著地在受不了的鼠标帮助的猪胸腺接枝裸体的圆周被减少,与健康的猪或鼠标胸腺接枝裸体人鼠标相比。而且,在受不了的老鼠帮助的猪胸腺接枝裸体的老鼠CD4+CD25+T房间在xenogeneic与对应物相比在抑制免疫力的功能显示出更多的严重缺乏猪或syngeneic胸腺接枝裸体人老鼠没有帮助。因此,减少的频率,改变的显型和在猪胸腺接枝裸体人鼠标的鼠标CD4+CD25+Treg房间的功能的缺乏可以在这个模特儿贡献帮助的开发。
