pubmed:abstractText |
The involvement of CD4+ and CD8+ T cells in pathogenesis of spontaneous autoimmune thyroiditis (SAT) in obese strain (OS) chickens has not been studied in depth until now. We depleted CD4+ or CD8+ T cells in OS chickens by treatment with murine monoclonal anti-CD4 or anti-CD8 antibodies at 3 day intervals beginning at hatching. The birds were killed at 19-25 days of age. Treatment with anti-CD4 antibody completely prevented SAT development, while treatment with anti-CD8 antibody partially inhibited SAT. These results show the critical role of CD4+ T cells in the development of SAT in OS chickens, and indicate that CD8+ T cells are also involved in SAT pathogenesis.
