Abstract Induction of oral tolerance has long been considered a promising approach to the treatment of chronic autoimmune diseases including rheumatoid arthritis RA . Oral administration of type II collagen CII has been proven to improve signs and symptoms in RA patients without troublesome toxicity. To investigate the mechanism of immune suppression mediated by orally administered antigen we examined changes in serum IgG subtypes and T-cell proliferative responses to CII and generation of IL-10-producing CD4 CD25 T-cell subsets in an animal model of collagen-induced arthritis CIA . We found that joint inflammation in CIA mice peaked at 5 weeks after primary immunization with CII which was significantly less in mice tolerized by repeated oral feeding of CII before CIA induction. Mice that had been fed with CII also .
