    Abstract: Encapsulating peritoneal sclerosis (EPS) is a severe complication of peritoneal dialysis (PD). This disease leads to intestinal obstruction with or without peritonitis. The imbalance between the populations of Th17 and regulatory T (Treg) cells (higher Th17 cells and lower Treg cells) is part of the pathogenesis of EPS formation. We demonstrated that dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) effectively inhibited autoimmune diabetes recurrence in the islet transplantation of NOD mice via the induction of the differentiation of Treg cells. In this study, we investigated the therapeutic potential of DMSO in the inhibition of EPS formation by a mouse model. Under DMSO treatment, the thickening of the parietal and visceral peritoneum was significantly reduced. The populations of CD4, CD8, and IFN-gamma-producing CD4 and CD8 T cells were decreased. The populations of IL-4-producing CD4 T lymphocytes, IL-10-producing CD4 T lymphocytes, CD4 CD69 T lymphocytes and Treg lymphocytes were increased. The expression levels of the cytokines IFN-gamma, IL-17a, TNF-alpha and IL-23, in ascites, were significantly decreased following the DMSO treatment. Furthermore, the differentiation of Treg cells was induced by DMSO from naive CD4 T cells in vitro, and these cells were adoptively transferred into the EPS mice and significantly prevented EPS formation, exhibiting a comparable effect to the in vivo DMSO treatment. We also demonstrated that the differentiation of Treg cells by DMSO occurred via the activation of STAT5 by its epigenetic effect, without altering the PI3K-AKT-mTOR or Raf-ERK pathways. Our results demonstrated, for the first time, that in vivo DMSO treatment suppresses EPS formation in a mouse model. Furthermore, the adoptive transfer of Treg cells that were differentiated from naive CD4 T cells by an in vitro DMSO treatment exhibited a similar effect to the in vivo DMSO treatment for the prevention of EPS formation.
