Abstract

Objective  To explore the effects of intramuscular injection of Notexin on transferred OT-I cells in muscle draining lymph nodes of C57BL/6 mice. Methods Tibialis anterior(TA)injury were performed by intramuscular injection of Notexin, or crush skill on B6 mice, separately. CFSE-labeled OT-I cells were adoptively transferred to myoinjury mice, and followed by OVA i.m. injection. TA draining lymph nodes were received, and lymphocytes were collected and analyzed the proliferation of OT-I cells by CFSE fluorescence intensity evaluation using flow cytometry. Activated spleen cDC cells were collected and purified from one B6 mouse received OVA i.v. injection. Purified cDC cells were co-cultured with CFSE-labeled OT-I cells. Notexin with different concentration were added into co-culturing system. After 72h, the survival and proliferation of OT-I cells were detected. Results According to the detection results of CFSE fluorescence intensity, OT-I cells in crush induced-damaged muscle draining lymph nodes were activated and proliferated rapidly under the stimulation of OVA antigen. For Notexin injection-induced muscle damage, no cell proliferation of OT-I cells were detected in TA draining lymph nodes at the day 4, but the proliferation of OT-I cells recovered at the day 7. Co-culturing with activated cDCs cells induced a obvious proliferation of OT-I cells in vitro, however, OT-I cells lost the proliferation ability if the co-culturing system were added with Noteixn, even if the concentration of Notexin was very lower(1:1000). Conclusions The activity and proliferation of CD8+ T cells will be interfered by intramuscular injection of Notxin. Therefore, we suggest that Notexin injection is unsuitable for investigating T cell response associated with myoinjury.
