AIM:To determine the changes of CD8+ T subsets especially CD8+CD28-T regulatory cells in rat model of experimental colitis induced by 2,4-dinitrofluorobenzene (DNFB). METHODS:The rat model of experimental colitis was induced by enema with DNFB.Ten days later,colonic intraepithelial and splenic lymphooltes were isolated from colitis animals (n=16) and controls (n=8).The proportion of CD8+ T cells,CD8+CD28+ T cells and CD8+CD28-T regulatory cells were determined by flow cytometry. RESULTS:The model of experimental colitis was successfully established by DNFB that was demonstrated by bloody diarrhea,weight loss and colonic histopathology.The proportion of CD8+ T cells in either splenic or colonic intraepithelial lymphocytes was not significantly different between colitis animals and controls (spleen:34.6±7.24 % vs 33.5±9.41%, colon:14.0±8.93 % vs 18.0±4.06 %,P>0.05).But CD8+CD28- T regulatory cells from colitis animals were significantly more than those from controls (spleen:11.3±2.26 % vs 5.64±1.01%, colon:6.50±5.37 % vs 1.07±0.65 %,P<0.05).In contrast, CD8+CD28+ T cells from colitis animals were less than those from controls (spleen:23.3±6.14 % vs 27.8±9.70 %,P=0.06; colon:7.52±4.18 % vs 16.9±4.07 %,P<0.05).The proportion of CD8+CD28-T regulatory cells in splenic and colon intraepithelial CD8+ T cells from colitis animals was higher than that from controls (spleen:33.3±5.49 % vs 18.4±7.26 %, colon:46.0±14.3 % vs6.10±3.72 %,P<0.005). CONCLUSION:Experimental colitis of rats can be induced by DNFB with simplicity and good reproducibility.The proportion of CD8+CD28-T regulatory cells in rats with experimental colitis is increased,which may be associated with the pathogenesis of colitis.
