Total dose and frequency of administration critically affect success of nasal mucosal tolerance induction

Abstract: Experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) is a T cell mediated disease that specifically targets the neural retina. Although EAU can be induced by a variety of retinal antigens in many diVerent animal strains, 1 EAU in the mouse more closely resembles the pathology of a spectrum of human posterior segment intraocular inflammatory (PSII) conditions including sympathetic ophthalmia, sarcoidosis, and birdshot retinochoroidopathy. 2-4As a result of the close clinicopathological correlation of EAU in mice to human PSII… Show more

“…3D). The requirement of booster tolerization for suppression of ischemic brain damage agrees with our previous stroke prevention study, which suggests that repeated low-dose tolerization is needed to produce an effective cohort of regulatory T cells in this model (23). The smaller lesion size in the PBS group at 6 h ( Fig.…”

“…Conjugation of insulin to CTB induced active mechanisms similar to that observed with the oral route. It appears that dose, frequency of intranasal antigen administration and timing of antigen delivery with regard to disease onset are critical determinants of tolerance induction and subsequent suppression of T cell‐mediated autoimmune disease [38]. In addition, previous studies using orally administered antigens outlined the risk of activation of immunity instead of tolerance induction [39], and the possibility to worsen an ongoing autoimmune disease [40].…”

“…9 Mucosal tolerance is a phenomenon, whereby peripheral tolerance is maintained by administering the antigen of interest through the oral or nasal/respiratory routes. [10][11][12] The induction of tolerance by mucosal administration of autoantigens or immunodominant/immunogenic peptides has been reported in various experimental models of autoimmune diseases, including encephalomyelitis, 13,14 myasthenia gravis, 15,16 uveitis, 16,17 diabetes, [18][19][20] arthritis, [21][22][23] and autoimmune GN. 24,25 In several of these studies, nasal administration of the immunodominant peptide was more effective in inducing tolerance than oral peptide administration.…”
