Abstract:Abstract:ObjectiveTo establish a mouse model with allergic rhinitis (AR) sensitized by pollen allergen of Artemisia annua.Methods20 BALB/C female mice were randomly divided into model group (AR group) and control group (solvent group) with 10 mice in each group.In the first and second week,20μl of Artemisia annua pollen antigen solution was subcutaneously injected into the sole of each AR group, and the mice were first sensitized.in that first and second week,20μl of artemisia annua pollen antigen solution was subcutaneously injected into the sole of each AR group, and the mice were first sensitized, and the vehicle group mice were treated with an equal amount of an antigen solvent solution, once a week for 2 weeks;In the third week, the sensitization method was the same as that in the previous two weeks, but the dose was reduced by half. At the same time, the twosided nasal cavity of the AR group was dropped to 10μl of the pollen antigen solution of the Artemisia annua L., the twoside nasal cavity of the vehicle group was dropped into the equivalent antigen solvent solution, and the other day was 1 time;In the fourth week, the twosided nasal cavity of the AR group was dropped to 10μl of Artemisia annua pollen antigen solution, and the twoside nasal cavity of the vehicle group was dropped into the equivalent antigen solvent solution and once a day. Set up the model,the model building time is not less than 35 d.The clinical symptoms of mice were observed. The behavioral score obtained by superimposed quantitative integration >5 indicated successful establishment of AR model, and then the pathological changes were observed by HE staining of nasal mucosae.ResultsAll the mice in the AR group developed AR symptoms such as itching, runny nose and sneezing after local sensitization of nasal cavity.ConclusionWith advantages of simple operation and good reproducibility, the successful establishment of mouse model of AR in this experiment is worth popularizing and provides an effective method and histomorphological basis for the immunological study of AR.
