- W2034234108 abstract "<b><i>Background:</i></b> Asthma is characterized as a chronic inflammatory disorder of the airways associated with an enhanced TH2 response to inhaled allergens. CD4+ T regulatory (Treg) cells are controlled by the master transcription factor FoxP3 and strictly maintain peripheral immunotolerance. Epigenetic regulation of FoxP3 by DNA methyltransferase inhibitors, such as 5-azacytidine (Aza), can generate a steady supply of functional Treg cells. Therefore, we propose that Aza can augment Treg cells in vivo to prevent the pathogenesis of asthma. <b><i>Methods:</i></b> BALB/c mice were sensitized with chicken ovalbumin (OVA) and treated with different doses of Aza. Airway hyperresponsiveness to methacholine, eosinophilia in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, circulating titers of OVA-specific IgG1 and IgE, and stimulating levels of TH2 cytokines from splenocytes were then determined. Cellular populations were examined by flow cytometry. PC61 antibody, which depletes CD25+ cells, was used to verify the role of CD25+ cells in Aza-induced tolerance. <b><i>Results:</i></b> Administration of Aza to OVA-sensitized mice diminished airway hyperreactivity, pulmonary eosinophilia, levels of OVA-specific IgG1 and IgE in serum, and secretion of TH2 cytokines from OVA-stimulated splenocytes in a dose-dependent manner. Percentages of CD25+ and FoxP3+ cells in the CD4+ cell population were notably increased in Aza-treated mice compared to sensitized control mice. Furthermore, the major symptoms of asthma were exacerbated by depleting CD25+ cells in Aza-treated mice. <b><i>Conclusions:</i></b> Aza may have applications as a novel clinical strategy to increase the production of Treg cells in order to modulate the airway inflammation associated with asthma." @default.
