OBJECTIVE To investigate whether the third-party dendritic cells (DC) incubated with donor's antigens possess the similar immune functions with donor derived immature DC. METHODS Female C57 BL/6, BALB/c and Kunming mice were used as skin transplant donors, recipients and third-party, respectively. Forty BALB/c mice were randomly divided into A (normal control), B (cyclophosphamide administration), C (CTX and donor derived immature DC), D (CTX and third-party immature DC), E (CTX and third-party DC loaded with donor's antigens) groups, with 8 mice in each group. The mice in group B, C, D and E were given CTX (200 mg/Kg) 4 days before operation, while those in group A were given equivalent amount of normal saline(NS). Then in group C, D and E, DC at a dose of 1 x 10(7)/ml were intraperitoneally injected with 2 days before grafting and 12 days after operation, but the mice in group A and B were given NS in the same manner. Mean survival time (MST) of skin grafts was recorded, and biopsies of grafts on 5 and 10 post-operation days (POD) were harvested for histologic examination. RESULTS Compared with group A [(16.1 +/- 3.5)d], MST of skin grafts in group C [(38.3 +/- 7.7) d] and E [(34.9 +/- 7.7) d] were significantly prolonged ( P < 0.01), while no obvious difference was observed between group C and E( P > 0.05), but there was statistically significant difference in MST between group D [(23.7 +/- 2.7) d] and E ( P < 0.05). In addition, clear epithelial structure and infiltration of inflammatory cells were observed in specimens from both groups C and E. CONCLUSIONS Both donor derived immature DC and third-party DC loaded with donor's antigens can partly induce donor specific transplantation tolerance.

D003520 Cyclophosphamide Precursor of an alkylating nitrogen mustard antineoplastic and immunosuppressive agent that must be activated in the LIVER to form the active aldophosphamide. It has been used in the treatment of LYMPHOMA and LEUKEMIA. Its side effect, ALOPECIA, has been used for defleecing sheep. Cyclophosphamide may also cause sterility, birth defects, mutations, and cancer.

D003713 Dendritic Cells Specialized cells of the hematopoietic system that have branch-like extensions. They are found throughout the lymphatic system, and in non-lymphoid tissues such as SKIN and the epithelia of the intestinal, respiratory, and reproductive tracts. They trap and process ANTIGENS, and present them to T-CELLS, thereby stimulating CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY. They are different from the non-hematopoietic FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS, which have a similar morphology and immune system function, but with respect to humoral immunity (ANTIBODY PRODUCTION).
