The mRNA expression of TLR4,TLR9 in experimental autoimmune neuritis induced by P0 180-199 and effects of TWP on it / 中国免疫学杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To observe the dynamic expression of mRNA of TLR4 and TLR9 in Lewis rats with experimental autoimmune neuritis(EAN) and the effect of TWP on the disease.Methods:Male Lewis rats were immunized with P0 180-199(100 microgram),TWP was profused into post-immunization rats’ stomach daily.The clinical signs of rats and pathological changes in the sciatic nerves were observed.TLR4 and TLR9 were detected by RT-PCR dynamically which spleens,sciatic nerves and peripheral blood lymphonodes as sample.Results:EAN group got the peak of clinical score at the 17 d.p.i,and ameliorated obviously at 33 d.p.i,and the mRNA expression of TLR4 got the peak at the 16 d.p.i,then reduced gradually(P
