Prolonged survival of rat islet xenografts in mice after CD45RB monotherapy

Abstract: Our results show that a short course of anti-CD45RB monotherapy prolongs the survival of rat islet xenografts in C57BL/6 mice.

“…We have previously shown that treatment of chemically diabetic C57BL/6 mice with DST and anti-CD154 mAb leads to prolonged survival of rat islet and skin xenografts (17,18) and xenogeneic neonatal porcine islet cell clusters (19). Similarly, anti-CD45RB mAb (20), anti-CD4 mAb (21), or coadministration of CTLA4-Fc and anti-CD154 mAb (22,23) leads to prolonged islet xenograft survival in mice. Islet xenograft tolerance has also been reported in monkeys given anti-CD3 immunotoxin, cyclosporine, and steroids (24).…”

“…According to previous reports, the expression levels of cytokine mRNAs in type 1 T helper cells (Th1s) and type 2 T helper cells (Th2s) in xenograft-bearing kidneys was decreased after anti-CD45RB treatment of chemically induced diabetic B6 mice (16). Another recent study in rodents indicates that Th1 and Th2 cytokines must both be thwarted in order to induce robust tolerance and prevent chronic rejection (31).…”

“…CD45RB is a restricted isoform of CD45 that has been an effective target of mAb therapy for the induction of tolerance and prolongation of allograft and xenograft survival in experimental models of islet transplantation (14,15). Treatment of islet transplantation recipients with either anti-CD45RB (a signal 1 inhibitor) alone or anti-CD45RB plus anti-CD154 (a signal 2 inhibitor) promotes long-term islet allograft survival in mice with chemically induced diabetes (16) and in spontaneously diabetic nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice (17). Taken together, these results reveal that TCR signaling (signal 1) and co-stimulation (signal 2) constitute promising targets for pharmaceuticals that prolong islet graft survival.…”

“…CD45RB antibody, a newly developed tolerance-inducing drug, not only induces immune tolerance but maintains immunosuppressive status, leading to prolonged survival time of grafts [31]. Administration of CD45RB antibody in allogeneic or xenogenic pancreatic islet transplantation can induce immune tolerance and prolong the survival time of transplanted pancreatic islets [32]. In the animals receiving pancreatic islet transplantation and CD45RB antibody, the Th1 to Th2 shift and Tc1 to Tc2 shift.…”
