Autoimmune dacryoadenitis is a frequent cause of lacrimal insufficiency. In order to test hypotheses regarding mechanisms that can trigger this syndrome, we developed a method to obtain a preparation of rabbit lacrimal gland epithelial cells essentially free of immune-system cells. The method relies on controlled digestion to disperse lacrimal acini, and recovers acini by filtration through various...
Autoimmune dacryoadenitis, such as occurs in Sjögren's syndrome, is a frequent cause of lacrimal insufficiency, which in turn can cause dry eye. Rabbits are used frequently to test ocular therapies. Our goal is to develop a rabbit model of autoimmune dacryoadenitis to identify and test candidate therapies. Our approach arises from the observations that lacrimal gland epithelial cells stimulate proliferation...
