AbstractCollagen type II (CII) induced arthritis (CIA) in mice is an experimental model for rheumatoid arthritis. Induction with non-self (e.g. human) CII induces severe arthritis whereas the mice are less susceptible to induction with self CII (i.e. mouse). To analyse whether an autoimmune response to human CII can develop and is pathogenic the authors have established transgenic mice expressing human CII in cartilage and backcrossed them into two different gene backgrounds susceptible to CIA (DBA/1 and C3H.Q). The transgenic human CII expression was restricted to cartilage and did not disturb cartilage morphology or lead to chondrodystrophy. In addition, development of stress-induced arthritis was not affected by the transgene. The cartilage specific expression of human CII reduced, but did not eliminate, the susceptibility to CIA irrespective of the species source (human, bovine, chick, rat) of CII used for immunization. A common denominator between these heterologous CII in comparison with mouse CII is the previously defined CII 256-270 epitope. An expression level dependent T-cell tolerance was seen in this epitope as well as to the entire CII. However, all human transgenic mouse lines could still mount significant autoreactive T- and B-cell responses. Approximately 10% of the transgenic mice developed arthritis after immunization with human CII. These findings show, therefore, that cartilage-located human CII induce tolerance but can nevertheless be a target for development of arthritis.
