Abstract: Objective To observe the change of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) in mouse model of asthma.Methods A total of 20 Balb/c female SPF-class mice were randomly divided into normal control group (n=10) and asthma model group (n=10).The asthma model group was sensitized with 2% ovalbumin (OVA) by a combination of intraperitoneal injection to induce asthma.Mice of normal control group received normal salineinstead of OVAin equal volume.The counts of eosinophils in peripheral blood (PB)and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) weredetected.The number of Tregs in mouse spleens was analyzed.Results The numbers of CD4+CD25+/CD4+(%),CD4+FOXP3+/CD4+(%),and CD4+CD25+FOXP3+/CD4+(%) in mouse spleens in asthma and normal control groups were 2.50±0.12 vs.16.64±2.11,3.92±1.23 vs.27.72±0.15,and 1.34±0.25 vs.15.60±0.62,respectively,showing significant differences (P<0.05).Conclusion The proportion of CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ cells in asthma mice was decreased compared to controls,suggesting that tregsmay be involved in asthma pathogenesis.
