Peningkatan Jumlah Apoptosis Airway Smooth Muscle Berhubungan dengan Peningkatan +Jumlah Sel T CD8 pada Model Mencit Asma

ABSTRACT: Airway  remodeling  is  an  important  thing  in  asthma.The  increase  of  airway  smooth  muscle  mass  is  a prominent feature of asthmatic airway remodeling. The importance role of airway smooth muscle cell (ASM) + apoptosis in airway remodeling is unknown.T cell also had important role in asthma, whereas CD4  T cell   +role in airway remodeling has already known, but how CD8  T cell role in airway remodeling is still unclear. A randomized control group experimental study used Balb/c mice, that categorized into 2 groups: asthma and control. Asthma group was sensitized by ovalbumin intraperitoneally in day 0 and 14, followed by inhalation +every 2-3 days for 6 weeks. In week 8, all of mice were terminated.  The expression of CD8  T cell lymphocyte was  examined  through  immunohistochemistry  method,  whereas  ASM  apoptosis  by  TUNEL  method. Independent sample t-test and spearman test was used in statistical analysis with confident interval 95%. The bronchioli and lungs specimens were obtained from 18 mice (9 in each group). Case goup had significant +increase in the amount of ASM apoptosis and expression of CD8  T cell lymphocyte (p=0.000; p=0.001). +There was also positif correlation between ASM apoptosis and expression of CD8  T cell (r=0.37, p=0.065). +We conclude that increasing  ASM apoptosis has a relationship with increasing CD8  T cell
Keywords: asthma, mice, ovalbumin, ASM apoptosis and CD8  T cell
