pubmed:abstractText |
Rheumatoid arthritis and its animal model, collagen-induced arthritis, are known as a T and B cell dependent disease. To analyze the role of B cells in arthritis, we generated B cell deficient (microMT) mice carrying HLA-DQ8 as transgene, Abetao.DQ8.micromt mice. HLA-DQ8 transgenic mice (Abetao.DQ8) are susceptible to collagen induced arthritis, an animal model for inflammatory arthritis. Deletion of IgM gene led to the absence of B cells while T cells were comparable to Abetao.DQ8 mice. Arthritis and autoantibodies was completely abrogated in B cell deficient DQ8 mice. T cell response and proinflammatory cytokine production in response to type II collagen and its derived peptides in vitro was significantly decreased despite an increased number of Mac-1 positive cells in DQ8.micromt mice compared to DQ8 mice suggesting B cells could be important for antigen presentation as well. In vitro substitution of B cells from wild type mice restored the response in DQ8.micromt mice. B cells could also present CII-derived peptides to antigen-specific DQ8-restricted hybridomas reinforcing the role of B cells in presentation of antigens to T cells. The data suggest that B cells can be involved in pathogenesis of arthritis by producing autoantibodies and antigen presentation.
