A Novel T Cell Receptor Transgenic Animal Model of Seborrheic Dermatitis-Like Skin Disease

Open access

Abstract

We have characterized a novel animal model of the common inflammatory skin disease seborrheic dermatitis (SD) that involves the expression of the self-specific 2C transgenic T cell receptor on the DBA/2 genetic background. Opportunistic fungal pathogens are present in the primary histological lesions and severe disease can be mitigated by the administration of fluconazole, demonstrating a role for infection in disease pathogenesis. Spontaneous disease convalescence occurs at 70-90 d of age and is preceded by an expansion of CD4+ T cells that partially restores the T cell lymphopenia that occurs in these animals. The adoptive transfer of syngeneic CD4+ T cells into pre-diseased DBA/2 2C mice completely abrogates the development of cutaneous disease. The pattern of disease inheritance in DBA/2 backcrosses suggests that one, or a closely linked group of genes, may control disease penetrance. Bone marrow reconstitution experiments demonstrated that the DBA/2 susceptibility factor(s) governing disease penetrance is likely non-hematopoietic since bone marrow from disease-resistant 2C mice can adoptively transfer the full disease phenotype to non-transgenic DBA/2 animals. This model implicates fungal organisms and CD4+ T cell lymphopenia in the development of a SD-like condition and, as such, may mimic the development of SD in acquired immunodeficiency syndrome.

  • Transgenic mice carrying the 2C T cell receptor (TCR) transgene in the DBA/2 background developed an extremely inflammatory phenotype in seborrheic areas.

    “Consistent with a role for altered immunity in the pathogenesis of SD, transgenic mice carrying the 2C T cell receptor (TCR) transgene in the DBA/2 background developed extremely inflammatory phenotype in seborrheic areas, such as the ears, around the eyes, and muzzle area [82].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
