Abstract

Background: Pimecrolimus is effective in atopic dermatitis and psoriasis. However, little is known about the effectiveness of pimecrolimus in allergic asthma. Objective: The aim of this study was to assess the effectiveness of pimecrolimus in bronchial hyperresponsiveness and airway inflammation in murine asthma model. Method: Female BALB/c mice fed with a standard chow incorporated with pimecrolimus for one week before either sensitization (group A, n=10) or allergen challenge (group B, n=10). Enhanced pause (Penh), methacholine bronchoprovocation test and bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF)analyses were performed. Result: The developments of airway narrowing and bronchial hyperresponsiveness induced by allergen challenge were suppressed in group B. The percentage of eosinophils and the levels of interleukin (IL)-4 and IL-5 in the BALF were also decreased in group B. Conclusion: Pimecrolimus given before allergen challenge suppresses the developments of airway inflammation and bronchial hyperresponsiveness in murine asthma model.
