AB - Objectives :
In the present study we hypothesized that the change of cytokine profiles can be identified after bee venom treatment and that is associated with modulation of immune-activating cells which have pathogenic role in rheumatoid arthritis.
Methods :
T cells and monocytes were isolated from human peripheral blood. Isolated monocytes were further induced to differentiate into dendritic cell(DC). Isolated T cells and differentiated DC were activated with phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate(PMA) and lipopolysaccharide(LPS), respectively. Bee venom(BV) added to each experiment group. Intracytoplasmic stain of T cells and morphologic observation, surface molecule analysis of DC were performed before and after cellular activation.
Results :
Pro-inflammatory cytokine was reduced whereas anti-inflammatory cytokine was increased with BV treatment in T cells. In DC, morphologic maturation and surface molecule increase by LPS was also inhibited by BV.
Conclusions :
BV may be an effective treatment in rheumatoid arthritis through its immune-modulating effect.
