Decoy oligodeoxynucleotide against STAT transcription factors decreases allergic inflammation in a rat asthma model
Leukocyte infiltration and activation of the CD40-CD40 ligand costimulatory pathway may promote inflammatory processes such as asthma. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a single intratracheal application of a decoy oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) specific for signal transducer and activato...

| Zusammenfassung: | Leukocyte infiltration and activation of the CD40-CD40 ligand costimulatory pathway may promote inflammatory processes such as asthma. The aim of this study was to investigate whether a single intratracheal application of a decoy oligodeoxynucleotide (ODN) specific for signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT) family members 1 and 3 influences leukocyte influx and pulmonary CD40 expression in a rat model of allergic airway inflammation. In comparison with the corticosteroid budesonide, the authors investigated the efficacy of the STAT decoy ODN in ovalbumin-induced allergic asthma in a Brown Norway rat asthma model. Leukocytes of the bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) and lung tissue were analyzed and expression of CD40 was assessed by Western blotting. |
