Abstract

The aim of the present study was to examine the effect of exogenous IL-10 transfected rat dendritic cells (DCs) in corneal allografts. Rat lymphocyte separation medium and a cytokine induction method was used to extract and culture precursor cells of rat bone marrow-derived dendritic cells. A corneal transplant model was established, with Sprague‑Dawley (SD) rats as the recipients and Wistar rats as the donors. Flow cytometry (FCM) was used to detect the expression of CD83, which indicates a mature dendritic cell, and a specific cell surface stimulatory molecule CD86. Western blot analysis was used to detect interleukin (IL)-10 protein expression and RT-PCR was used to detect cytokine IL-10, IL-2 and TGF-β mRNA expression in each group. Compared with the other groups, the survival time of corneal grafts in the IL-10-green fluorescent protein (GFP)-DC group was significantly prolonged and H&E staining demonstrated mild graft edema and inflammatory cell infiltration. There was a high expression of IL-10 and a low expression of the surface antigens, CD83 and CD86, with a lower proliferation of T lymphocytes in the IL-10-GFP-DC group. The expression of IL-10 and TGF-β in the IL-10‑GFP-DC group was higher than that in the other groups, while the expression of IL-2 was lower. The transfection of the IL-10 gene inhibited dendritic cell maturation. IL-10 gene‑modified immature dendritic cells (imDC) were able to inhibit corneal allograft rejection and induce immune tolerance to prolong the survival time of the corneal graft. The Th1/Th2 deviation and the high expression of TGF-β may lead to immune tolerance.
