pubmed:abstractText |
The mucosal immune system plays an important role in blocking the penetration of invasive organisms into various mucosal surfaces. Evidence now suggests neuroendocrine peptide hormones have immunomodulatory properties, including the ability to alter mucosal immunity. The potential for opioid compounds and corticotropic hormone (ACTH) to modulate mucosal immune function was investigated. We have found beta-endorphin, ACTH, and naltrindole (delta-class opioid receptor antagonist) to significantly suppress concanavalin A-stimulated Peyer's patch lymphocyte immunoglobulin production of IgA, IgG, and IgM isotypes. Oxymorphindole, a delta class opioid receptor agonist, significantly decreased IgM but not IgA or IgG production by the mitogen-stimulated Peyer's patch lymphocytes. Both oxymorphindole and naltrindole modestly reduced interleukin-2 receptor expression of concanavalin A- (Con A)-stimulated splenic and Peyer's patch lymphocytes. Neither compound appreciably affected immunoglobulin production by lipopolysaccharide-stimulated Peyer's patch lymphocytes. Collectively, these results indicate stress-related peptides such as ACTH and opioids may be involved in the regulation of immunoglobulin synthesis by Peyer's patch lymphocytes.
