Description

PLP (139-151) is amino acid residue 139 to 151 of myelin proteolipid protein (PLP) used to induce experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE).

In Vitro

Severe clinical and histological EAE could be induced by adoptive transfer of the peptide-specific T cell line and 3 of 4 T cell clones. The T cell line/clones all responded strongly to PLP (139-151) in in vitro proliferative assays. Line SPL and all of the clones show strong proliferative response to the whole PLP molecule and to PLP (139-151)[1].

In Vivo

After a single oral administration of Amiodarone to rats, its pharmacokinetic characteristics include: the absorption half-life is approximately 1.83 hours, the elimination half-life ranges from 15 hours (at a dose of 100 mg/kg) to 105 hours (at a dose of 200 mg/kg), and the average oral bioavailability is 39%. Amiodarone is primarily distributed in the lungs, liver, thyroid gland, and adipose tissue, with notably higher drug concentrations in the lungs and adipose tissue compared to other tissues. Following chronic oral administration, Amiodarone shows a significant increase in accumulation in adipose tissue.
Amiodarone can be used for animal modeling to construct pulmonary toxicity models and liver injury models [3][4][5].

Induction of Relapsing-Remitting Experimental Autoimmune Encephalomyelitis (RR-EAE)

Background
Proinflammatory cytokines produced by neuroantigen-specific T cells are considered key factors in the initiation and maintenance of autoimmune encephalomyelitis. PLP (139-151) induces autoimmune encephalomyelitis by activating immune responses mediated by specific CD4 cells, which release proinflammatory cytokines such as IL-17 and IFN-γ. This leads to local inflammation and disruption of neural function, thereby inducing autoimmune encephalomyelitis[5].
Specific Mmodeling Methods
Mice: SJL/J • female and female • 6-week-old
Administration: 100 μg • sc • single dose
Note
1. Subcutaneously inject 100 μg of PLP (139-151) (100 μl, 1 μg/μl) along with 100 μl of complete Freund's adjuvant (HY-153808) to enhance the mouse's immune response to PLP (139-151) .
2. One day after the subcutaneous injection of PLP (139-151) , perform an intraperitoneal injection of 100 μl (2 ng/μl, dissolved in phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) ) of Bordetella pertussis toxin (BPX) to further enhance the mouse's immune response to PLP (139-151) .
3. Monitor the mice daily for changes in body weight and clinical status. Perform neurological evaluations using a clinical score (CS) system with the following scale: 0 for no abnormalities; 0.5 for a drooping tail tip; 1 for a limp tail; 1.5 for hind limb dysfunction; 2 for hind limb weakness; 2.5 for dragging hind limbs; 3 for hind limb paralysis; 3.5 for complete hind limb paralysis with the mouse unable to right itself when placed on its side; and 4 for complete hind limb paralysis and partial front limb paralysis.
4. Isolate mice with early clinical symptoms of encephalomyelitis in separate cages with easier access to food and water. Dehydrated mice should receive an intraperitoneal injection of saline solution at least once a day.
Modeling Indicators
Phenotypic Observations: Mice show weight loss and a significant increase in clinical scores. Histological Changes: Iron deposits are observed in the cerebellum, medulla, and spinal cord of the mice. Molecular Changes: Enhanced uptake of [^18F]DPA-714, a radiotracer for the TSPO protein expressed on the surface of central nervous system microglia and macrophages, is observed in the brainstem and cerebellum of mice via positron emission tomography (PET). Immunohistochemistry reveals significantly increased TSPO and Iba1 (markers of microglia and macrophage activation) immunosignals, indicating activation of microglia and macrophages in regions such as the brainstem and cerebellum.

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
