The chemokine CCL17, mainly produced by dendritic cells (DCs) in the immune system, is involved in the pathogenesis of various inflammatory diseases. As a ligand of CCR4, CCL17 induces chemotaxis and facilitates T cell-DC interactions. We report the identification of two novel RNA aptamers, which were validated in vitro and in vivo for their capability to neutralize CCL17. Both aptamers efficiently inhibited the directed migration of the CCR4+ lymphoma line BW5147.3 toward CCL17 in a dose-dependent manner. To study the effect of these aptamers in vivo, we used a murine model of contact hypersensitivity. Systemic application of the aptamers significantly prevented ear swelling and T cell infiltration into the ears of sensitized mice after challenge with the contact sensitizer. The results of this proof-of-principle study establish aptamers as potent inhibitors of CCL17-mediated chemotaxis. Potentially, CCL17-specific aptamers may be used therapeutically in humans to treat or prevent allergic and inflammatory diseases. The chemokine CCL17 promotes T cell attraction to peripheral tissues and thereby exacerbates inflammatory reactions. Using SELEX, Fülle et al. selected high-affinity aptamers, which neutralize CCL17 in murine contact hypersensitivity. Because of their small size and structural properties, such aptamers may represent new versatile drugs for allergic skin diseases.
