BACKGROUND: The significance of specific T cell receptor (TCR) Vbeta subtypes and human leucocyte antigen (HLA) class II alleles for the development of allergy to lipocalin allergens such as the major dog allergen Can f 1 is not clear at present.
OBJECTIVE: To characterize the TCR Vbeta usage in the Can f 1-specific T cell lines and the HLA class II genotypes of Can f 1-allergic and non-allergic subjects.
METHODS: T cell lines were induced with recombinant Can f 1 from the peripheral blood mononuclear cells of 12 non-atopic dog owners and 26 dog-allergic patients. Thirteen of the dog-allergic subjects were sensitized to Can f 1. Expression of the TCR Vbeta subtypes on CD4(+) T cells in the T cell lines was measured by flow cytometry. The subjects were HLA genotyped for DRB1, DQB1 and DPB1 loci.
RESULTS: Can f 1-specific T cell lines were obtained from 18 subjects, with either positive (n=8) or negative (n=10) skin prick tests (SPTs) to recombinant Can f 1. The frequency of TCR Vbeta5.1(+) T cells was significantly higher in the T cell lines of subjects with negative SPTs to the allergen. Moreover, DR4-DQ8 haplotype was over-represented among these subjects.
CONCLUSION: The DR4-DQ8 haplotype and the TCR Vbeta5.1(+) CD4(+) T cells may be protective against allergy to Can f 1.
