Research Abstract

We reported that transgenic(TG) expression of RbAp48, and CCR7 knockout(KO) mice resulted in the development of autoimmune exocrinopathy resembling Sjogren' s syndrome. CD4^+ T cell-mediated autoimmune lesions were aggravated with age, in association with autoantibody productions. We obtained evidences that salivary epithelial cells can produce interferon-γand interleukin-18, which activates interferon regulatory factor-1(IRF-1), and class II transactivator(CIITA). Regulatory T(Treg) cells were significantly retained in the lymph nodes of CCR7KO mice, and failed to patrol within the exocrine organs to protect autoimmunity. The gene targeting for RbAp48 with application of in vivo siRNA administration prevented autoimmune lesions. These results indicate a novel immunocompetent role of epithelial cells, resulting in loss of local tolerance prior to developing gender-based autoimmunity.
