Immunological Changes Induced in Peach Allergy Patients with Systemic Reactions by Pru p 3 Sublingual Immunotherapy.
Molecular Nutrition & Food Research 2018 Februrary
SCOPE: Sublingual immunotherapy using peach extract enriched in Pru p 3 (Pru p 3-enriched-SLIT) brings a new perspective to treating patients with allergy to lipid transfer proteins. We evaluate the immunological changes induced by Pru p 3-enriched-SLIT during one year.
METHODS AND RESULTS: Three groups are included: peach allergic patients who receive Pru p 3-enriched-SLIT, peach allergic untreated patients, and controls. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells are obtained before treatment and at different time-points. Monocyte-derived dendritic cells (moDCs) maturation and lymphocyte proliferation are assessed by flow cytometry. Data showed a significant reduction of moDCs maturation status during one year of treatment and an increase in PD-L1. Moreover, we observed a significant decrease of the Pru p 3-specific proliferation of effector cells and an increase in regulatory T (Treg) cells with higher PD-L1 expression and IL-10 production. These are observed in patients treated only.
CONCLUSION: Successful Pru p 3-enriched-SLIT is linked to an important immunosuppression of allergen-specific effector T cells, potentially due to an increase of allergen-specific Treg cells. These cellular changes are orchestrated by the activity of moDCs promoting the expression of PD-L1 that will participate in the regulatory response. These changes may serve as biomarkers during SLIT alongside other features such as IgE/IgG4 ratio.
