Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) play a key role in the regulation of immunity under certain pathological conditions, such as inflammation and cancer. As areca nut extracts (ANE) have been reported to induce a proinflammatory effect in antigen-stimulated mice, we hypothesized that ANE might enhance the development of MDSC. Methods: Ovalbumin (OVA)-sensitized BALB/c mice were daily administered with ANE (5-50mg/kg), polyphenol-enriched ANE (PANE; 25mg/kg) or arecoline (5mg/kg) by intraperitoneal injection for 10 doses. The mouse footpads were then subcutaneously challenged with OVA to induce local inflammatory responses. Results: ANE and PANE treatment significantly increased the spleen index and the population of CD11b +Gr-1 + cells in the spleen and peripheral blood, whereas arecoline was inactive. In addition, ANE and PANE treatment enhanced the expression of cytokines and enzymes associated with the immunosuppressive function of MDSC, including IL-10, arginase-I and iNOS in splenic CD11b + cells. Concordantly, ANE and PANE treatment augmented the infiltration of Gr-1 +IL-10 + cells in the footpads challenged with OVA. Conclusions: Our results suggested that areca nut constituents, in particular, polyphenols enhanced the development of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in vivo, which may be a critical mechanism linking inflammation and the compromised immunity reported to be associated with the pathophysiology of areca-related oral diseases. ? 2011 John Wiley & Sons A/S. |
