Project description:Since the discovery that Der p 1 is a cysteine protease, the role of proteolytic activity in allergic sensitization has been explored. There are many allergens with proteolytic activity; however, exposure from dust mites is not limited to allergens. In this paper, genomic, transcriptomic and proteomic data on Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus (DP) was mined for information regarding the complete degradome of this house dust mite. D. pteronyssinus has more proteases than the closely related Acari, Dermatophagoides farinae (DF) and Sarcoptes scabiei (SS). The group of proteases in D. pteronyssinus is found to be more highly transcribed than the norm for this species. The distribution of protease types is dominated by the cysteine proteases like Der p 1 that account for about half of protease transcription by abundance, and Der p 1 in particular accounts for 22% of the total protease transcripts. In an analysis of protease stability, the group of allergens (Der p 1, Der p 3, Der p 6, and Der p 9) is found to be more stable than the mean. It is also statistically demonstrated that the protease allergens are simultaneously more highly expressed and more stable than the group of D. pteronyssinus proteases being examined, consistent with common assumptions about allergens in general. There are several significant non-allergen outliers from the normal group of proteases with high expression and high stability that should be examined for IgE binding. This paper compiles the first holistic picture of the D. pteronyssinus degradome to which humans may be exposed.

Project description:Subcutaneous specific immunotherapy (SCIT) has been shown to modify the Dermatophagoides pteronissinus (DP) allergic response, characterized by generation of Treg cells. However, studies have reported no changes in the proportion of Treg cells after immunotherapy, indicating that the effects may be due to modifications in their regulatory activities. We aimed to determine whether Tregs generated by DP-SCIT can switch the allergic response to tolerant and study the involvement of suppressive cytokines on it. Twenty-four DP-allergic rhinitis patients were recruited, 16 treated with DP-SCIT and 8 untreated. Treg and T effector cells were isolated before and after DP-SCIT, and cocultured in different combinations with ?-IL-10, ?-TGF-? blocking antibodies and nDer p 1. Treg cells after DP-SCIT increased Th1 and decreased Th2 and Th9 proliferation. Similarly, they increased IL-10 and decreased IL-4 and IL-9-producing cells. ?-IL-10 affected the activity of Treg cells obtained after DP-SCIT only. Finally, DP-specific IgG4 levels, Treg percentage and IL-10 production were correlated after DP-SCIT. These results demonstrate that DP-SCIT induces Treg cells with different suppressive activities. These changes could be mediated by IL-10 production and appear to play an important role in the induction of the tolerance response leading to a clinical improvement of symptoms.

Project description:The house dust mite (HDM) Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus is an important risk factor for asthma and rhinitis. Allergen specific immunotherapy that is based on recombinant proteins has been proposed for the safer and more efficient treatment of allergic diseases. The aim of this study was to design and obtain a hybrid protein (DPx4) containing antigenic regions of allergens Der p 1, Der p 2, Der p 7, and Der p 10 from this mite. DPx4 was produced in Escherichia coli and its folding was determined by circular dichroism. Non-denaturing dot-blot, ELISA, basophil activation test, dot blot with monoclonal antibodies, ELISA inhibition, and cysteine protease activity assays were performed. Mice that were immunized with DPx4 were also analyzed. We found that DPx4 had no cysteine protease activity and it showed significantly lower IgE reactivity than Der p 1, Der p 2, and D. pteronyssinus extract. DPx4 induced lower basophil activation than Der p 2 and the allergen extract. Immunized mice produced IgG antibodies that inhibited the binding of allergic patient's IgE to the allergen extract and induced comparatively higher levels of IL-10 than the extract in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) culture. These results suggest that DPx4 has immunological properties that are useful for the development of a mite allergy vaccine.

Project description:Mites are mass-cultured to manufacture allergen extracts for allergy diagnostics and therapeutic treatment. This study focused on characterizing the growth, the allergen profile, and the microbiome of Dermatophagoides pteronyssinus cultures. Mite population, protein profile, total protein content and major allergen levels (Der p 1, Der p 2, Der p 23) were monitored at different times of three independent cultures. The allergenicity was studied by immunoblot using a pool of sera from allergic patients. Mite microbiome was characterized by sequencing the 16S rRNA gene from 600 adult mites from the last day of the culture. Endotoxin content was also analyzed. The cultures had a fast and unrelenting evolution. Mite density, total protein content, major allergen levels and the allergenicity were increased progressively during the cultures. Regarding the microbiome studies, the results confirm the presence of non-pathogenic bacteria, being firmicutes and actinobacteria the most common bacterial taxa, with a very low content of Gram-negative bacteria and endotoxin content. The allergenicity and levels of the main allergens in the mite cultures are objective methods useful to monitor the mite culture that help to produce standardized allergen extracts. The high presence of Gram-positive bacteria found limits the possibility for vaccine contamination by bacterial endotoxins.
