Microglia response to allergic airway inflammation during early postnatal period in mice
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: We examined how allergic inflammation in early postnatal period influences microglia using a short- and long-term airway allergy model. Male mice (C57BL/6) were immunized by intraperitoneal injection with aluminum hydroxide and ovalbumin (OVA) or phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) (control) at postnatal days (P) 3, 7, and 11, followed by intranasal challenge with OVA or PBS solution twice a week until P30 or P70. Microglia from whole brain were isolated from PBS- and OVA-treated mice by gating on CD11b+CD45int cells with flowcytometry at P30 and P70 respectively. Results suggest the dysregulation of microglial genes related to synaptic pruning and clearance, aging, and corticosteroid pathway and distinction between short- and long- term allergen challenge.
