ABSTRACT
Asthma is an atopic disorder with increasing frequency and severity in developed nations. Interleukin-13 (IL-13) one of the most critical mediators asthma pathology. In present study, we a vaccine comprised keyhole limpet hemocyanin-mIL-13 heterocomplex immunogen to persistently neutralize excessive endogenous IL-13. Our results showed that IL-13 peptide kinoid could induce sustained high titer IL-13-specific IgG when using aluminum hydroxide as adjuvant, suppress accumulation eosinophils well levels bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF). addition, total IgE ovalbumin (OVA)-specific serum were significantly inhibited. This study also vaccination prevent airway inflammation epithelial cell proliferation goblet hyperplasia mouse model acute asthma. summary, our findings suggest can serve innovative effective against
