Abstract:

To prevent allergic reactions induced by cats and dogs, we purified rFel d 1-Can f 1 fusion allergen by fusion prokaryotic expression of cat primary allergen Fel d 1 and dog primary allergen Can f 1. We mixed Layered double hydroxides (LDH) with rFel d 1-Can f 1 to prepare LDH-rFel d 1-Can f 1 and immunized BALB/c mice by subcutaneous injection. Subsequently, we used rFel d 1-can f 1 fusion allergen to induce allergic mice models. We evaluated the preventive effect of LDH-rFel d 1-Can f 1 on allergic reactions caused by cats and dogs through anaphylaxis, ear prick test, H&E staining of lung tissue sections, and serum IgE level. The results showed that LDH could completely adsorb the fusion protein of rFel d 1-Can f 1 when the mass ratio of LDH to rFel d 1-Can f 1 was 7 ∶1. The LDH-rFel d 1-Can f 1 can effectively relieve the hypothermia caused by stress allergic reaction in mice, and significantly reduce the dye penetration area caused by allergy. H&E staining of lung tissue sections showed that LDH-rFel d 1-Can f 1 could relieve inflammatory cell invasion caused by the allergy. In addition, the LDH-rFel d 1-Can f 1 can induce mice to produce higher levels of IgG, which lays the foundation for the development of vaccines that inhibit allergic reactions induced by pet cats and dogs.
