Similar to intestine and pulmonary tissue, skin is in contact with the environment and hence, requires efficient immune surveillance. The concept of skin‐associated lymphoid tissue (SALT) was first introduced in 1978. The skin immune system (SIS) with its cellular and humoral components and the associated draining lymph nodes fulfills the three major functions of the innate and adaptive immune system: (1) induction of the primary immune response; (2) expression of immunity to previously encountered antigens (memory); and (3) avoidance of deleterious immune responses to nonthreatening antigens (tolerance). The cellular components of the SIS include dendritic antigen‐presenting cells (Langerhans cells and dermal dendritic cells), skin‐homing αβ‐T lymphocytes and γδ‐T lymphocytes, keratinocytes and their environment, the microvascular unit (endothelial cells of the dermal postcapillary venules), neural cells and dendritic neural processes, and the draining lymph node with its high endothelial venules. Humoral components of the SIS are defensins, complement components, immunoglobulins, cytokines, chemokines, fibrinolysin, eicosanoids and neuropeptides. Important characteristics and functions of these components and their interactions with each other will be discussed with regard to normal skin versus recruitment phase, retention phase and resolution phase associated with inflammatory conditions. The discussion will primarily focus on cutaneous dendritic antigen‐presenting cells, cutaneous lymphocytes and their homing into the skin, and keratinocytes. Moreover, the importance of the microvascular unit in relation to leukocyte recruitment and migration will be discussed. 相似文献

IgE‐mediated late‐phase reactions can be induced in the skin of normal and atopic dogs by intradermal injections of anti‐IgE antibody. The histology of these reactions is very similar to that of naturally occurring atopic dermatitis. To characterize the cellular, cytokine and chemokine responses in the skin of placebo‐ and prednisolone‐treated dogs, normal beagles received either placebo or 0.5 mg/kg prednisolone twice daily for three days prior to intradermal injection of polyclonal rabbit anti‐canine IgE. Eight‐millimetre punch biopsy skin samples were taken before injection and at the injection sites after 6, 24 and 48 h. Histological and immunohistochemical examination revealed a rapid cellular influx. Eosinophil and neutrophil numbers increased from <1 to 61.4 ± 14.1, and from 7 to 62.2 ± 10.8 cells/mm2, respectively, within 6 h after injection, and remained moderately elevated 48 h later. The numbers of CD1c+, CD3+ and CD4+ mononuclear cells were also increased by 6 h. Taqman analysis demonstrated 2.5‐ to 72‐fold increases in mRNA expression for IL‐13, IL‐5, MCP (CCL2), RANTES (CCL5) and TARC (CCL17). Levels of mRNA for IL‐2, IL‐4, IL‐6, and IFNγ remained negligible. Prednisolone administration suppressed the influx of neutrophils and eosinophils, and the expression of IL‐13, CCL2, CCL5 and CCL17 (33, 97, 58, 86, 73 and 90%, respectively), as well as the influx of CD1c+ and CD3+ cells. These data document the cytokine and chemokine response to anti‐IgE injection and demonstrate the anti‐inflammatory effect of prednisolone. Funding: Schering‐Plough Animal Health. 相似文献

Feline sarcoids are uncommon dermal neoplasms that are thought to be caused by papillomaviral (PV) infection. Feline sarcoid‐associated PV (FeSarPV) has been consistently detected in sarcoids from North American and New Zealand cats but has not been detected within any other feline sample. This suggests that feline sarcoids may develop due to cross‐species infection by a PV from an unidentified reservoir host. While there is some epidemiological evidence to suggest that cattle are the reservoir host of FeSarPV, this PV has never been identified within any bovine sample. In this study both consensus PCR primers and primers specific to FeSarPV were used to investigate the presence of PV DNA within five fibropapillomas and 18 samples of inflammatory skin disease from cattle. Consensus primers amplified bovine PV‐2 DNA from four fibropapillomas, but none of the dermatitis samples. However, specific primers amplified FeSarPV DNA from four fibropapillomas and five inflammatory skin lesions. To the best of our knowledge this is the first time that FeSarPV has been detected within any sample other than a feline sarcoid. The ability of FeSarPV to asymptomatically infect bovine skin suggests that cattle are the reservoir host of this PV and feline sarcoids could be the result of cross‐species infection of a dead‐end host by a bovine PV. 相似文献

This study describes a novel end‐to‐end‐jejunojejunal‐anastomotic technique using skin staples following resection of compromised small intestine. Five horses were referred with colic and underwent exploratory laparotomy, resection and anastomosis. No long‐term complications were recorded at 12 months. This safe and effective technique may be used in equine gastrointestinal surgery. 相似文献

Objective – To review the immunomodulatory effects of opioids. Data Sources – Original research publications and review articles using the PubMed search engine with the following keywords – opioids, morphine, immuomodulation, and immunosuppression. Veterinary and Human Data Synthesis – Opioids have been shown to modulate the immune system in animal models by affecting both the acquired and innate arms of the immune system. Natural killer cell activity, T‐cell proliferation, antibody production, phagocytic cell function, and cytokine production have all been shown to be affected by opioids. Many of these effects are reversed by opioid antagonists. Opioids have also been shown to induce sepsis in laboratory animals. Opioid administration alters immune parameters in healthy humans at analgesic doses and may increase the risk of infection in some patient populations. Conclusions – While opioids remain the most powerful and widely used analgesics available, their negative effects on the immune system are well established in the laboratory setting. Thoughtful consideration should be given to the use of certain opioids in critically ill patients, especially those with pre‐existing immunocompromise. 相似文献
