ANTI-CD303: Effect of Anti-CD303 Antibodies in Autoimmune Diseases
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The pathogenic role of type I interferons (IFNs) in the development of different autoimmune diseases has been extensively described in the literature. Since plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are the main source of type I IFNs, there is evidence of the involvement of pDCs in autoimmune diseases. The CD303 surface protein (also called BDCA-2) is specifically expressed by the pDCs.
The hypothesis leading to the realization of this study is to observe, in vitro, an inhibition of the secretion of the type I IFNs by pDCs in the peripheral blood in patients with autoimmune disease, thanks to the action of the anti-CD303 antibody Developed by the LFB Group, which could reduce the inflammatory response and improve patients with autoimmune disease

Experimental: Patient

Biological: Monoclonal anti-cd303 antibody
Addition of monoclonal anti CD303 antibodies or not (control) on 2 blood samples of the same patient, to which 10 μl of CpG (20 μg / ml) are added in order to activate plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells and to induce the secretion of Type I interferons.
