Abstract:
Chronic posterior uveitis is a relatively common clinical disorder and an importance cause of visual impairment in young adults. Experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU) and its associated experimental autoimmune pinealitis (EAP) induced by retinal autoantigens are predominantly CD4+ T cell mediated (auto) immune disease of the retina and uveal tract of the eye and the pineal gland respectively. EAU bears a close clinical and pathological resemblance to chronic posterior uveitis in humans and seves as a good animal model for the study of posterior uveitis. The EAU model was used to study means of

Abstract:
Recently, there has been considerable interest in developing specific cell-based immunotherapies using dendritic cells (DCs). Here the mechanisms underlying the tolerogenic properties of DCs in the suppression of experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU), the mouse model of human sight threatening autoimmune uveitis, were examined. Immature DCs have the ability to promote immune tolerance to self antigens and to prevent the development of autoimmune disorders including EAU. However there is a risk that immature DCs placed in the inflammatory environment would undergo maturation and instead o

Abstract:
The large amounts of nitric oxide (NO) produced by the inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) has been described as a double-edged sword eliciting pro- or anti inflammatory effects in different immune situations. The aim of this study was to investigate the role of NO in ocular inflammation. Rat RPE cells were shown to produce NO in vitro in response to inflammatory stimuli but in vivo the RPE expressed little or no iNOS enzyme in the normal Lewis rat eye. However, expression of the iNOS enzyme was closely associated with disease activity in experimental autoimmune uveoretinitis (EAU), a model

Abstract:
The studies in this thesis were aimed at developing new treatment concepts for PSII based on the understanding of the immunological mechanisms characterised in basic research. The intensity and prognosis of inflammatory disease determine the intensity of immunosuppressive therapy. In addition to clinical features, markers of effective immunosuppression are required to guide the immunosuppressive treatment in PSII patients, especially in those patients with opaque media. A secondary aim of this thesis was, hence, the evaluation of laboratory markers, notably CD4+ T cell phenotype markers, for t

In this study a possible role for RPE cells as local antigen presenting cells in immune inflammatory eye disease was investigated. In contrast to observations in the rat model of EAU however, Class II positive RPE cells were never observed in vivo in the guinea pig model of EAU but responses of RPE cells in vitro implied that these cells may have an immunoregulatory role in retinal autoimmunity. The T cell mediated nature of EAU was studied in the guinea pig model. The phenotype of inflammatory cells present in developing lesions was examined.

Therefore, here we sought to develop a PD1-targeting approach to suppress experimental autoimmune uveitis (EAU). Successful construction of rAAV delivery PD-L1 con
