ABSTRACT
Adjuvants were used to modulate response towards relevant immune cells. The present study aims to investigate FlaA-conjugated Per a 10 and T cell peptides in amelioration of allergic airway disease in mice. Mice given Per a 10 showed allergic features with higher cellular infiltration, IgE, Th-2 cytokines and alarmins. Fusion protein treatment reduced lung inflammation (p < 0.0001) and cellular infiltrates (p < 0.001) with higher IgG2a/IgE indicating resolution of disease. Immunotherapy with FPT1 and FPT3 reduces IL-4, IL-5 and IL-13 levels (p < 0.0001) with a fourfold increase in IFN-γ secretion in BALF. FPT1- and FPT3-treated mice have increased IL-10 and TGF-ß levels (p < 0.001) with CD4+Foxp3+ T cells (p < 0.01) indicating Treg response. There was enhanced expression of claudin-1 (1.7-fold) and occludin (fourfold) in lungs of FPT1- and FPT3-treated mice with reduced TSLP (p < 0.01) and IL-33 (p < 0.0001) secretion in BALF indicating recovery of epithelial function. Peptide-conjugated FlaA proteins showed protective immunity in mice and have potential for immunotherapy with restoration of cellular function.
