Two major dendritic cell (DC) subsets have been described in the pancreas of mice: The CD11c+CD8α− DCs (strong CD4+ T cell proliferation inducers) and the CD8α+CD103+ DCs (T cell apoptosis inducers). Here we analyzed the larger subset of CD11c+CD8α− DCs isolated from the pancreas of pre-diabetic NOD mice for genome-wide gene expression (validated by Q-PCR) to elucidate abnormalities in underlying gene expression networks. CD11c+CD8α− DCs were isolated from 5 week old NOD and control C57BL/6 pancreas. The steady state pancreatic NOD CD11c+CD8α− DCs showed a reduced expression of several gene networks important for the prime functions of these cells, i.e. for cell renewal, immune tolerance induction, migration and for the provision of growth factors including those for beta cell regeneration. A functional in vivo BrdU incorporation test showed the reduced proliferation of steady state pancreatic DC. The reduced expression of tolerance induction genes (CD200R, CCR5 and CD24) was supported on the protein level by flow cytometry. Also previously published functional tests on maturation, immune stimulation and migration confirm the molecular deficits of NOD steady state DC. Despite these deficiencies NOD pancreas CD11c+CD8α− DCs showed a hyperreactivity to LPS, which resulted in an enhanced pro-inflammatory state characterized by a gene profile of an enhanced expression of a number of classical inflammatory cytokines. The enhanced up-regulation of inflammatory genes was supported by the in vitro cytokine production profile of the DCs. In conclusion, our data show that NOD pancreatic CD11c+CD8α− DCs show various deficiencies in steady state, while hyperreactive when encountering a danger signal such as LPS. 相似文献

Introduction
The present study was devised to understand the role of systemic indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO) in the tolerance induction for orally tolerized mice in collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). We examined whether IDO-expressing dendritic cells (DCs) are involved in the generation of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells during the induction of oral tolerance in a murine CIA model.Methods
Type II collagen was fed six times to DBA/1 mice beginning 2 weeks before immunization, and the effect on arthritis was assessed. To examine the IDO expression, the DCs of messenger RNA and protein were analyzed by RT-PCR and Flow cytometry. In addition, a proliferative response assay was also carried out to determine the suppressive effects of DCs through IDO. The ability of DCs expressing IDO to induce CD4+CD25+ T regulatory cells was examined.Results
CD11c+ DCs in Peyer's patches from orally tolerized mice expressed a higher level of IDO than DCs from nontolerized CIA mice. IDO-expressing CD11c+ DCs were involved in the suppression of type II collagen-specific T-cell proliferation and in the downregulation of proinflammatory T helper 1 cytokine production. The suppressive effect of IDO-expressing CD11c+ DCs was mediated by Foxp3+CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells.Conclusion
Our data suggest that tolerogenic CD11c+ DCs are closely linked with the induction of oral tolerance through an IDO-dependent mechanism and that this pathway may provide a new therapeutic modality to treat autoimmune arthritis. 相似文献3.

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells can perform multiple functions characteristic of both innate and acquired immunity. Activation of iNKT cells in vivo by repeated α-GalCer injections can induce immune tolerance, but the mechanisms responsible for such immunoregulation remain unclear. We prepared α-GalCer-liposomes, a single injection of which into mice resulted in the expansion of splenic CD11clowCD45RBhigh cells, which consists of two populations, CD180+ and CD49b+. Expansion of these cells was not observed in α-GalCer-liposome-treated mice deficient in IL-10 or iNKT cells. MHC and co-stimulatory molecules were down-regulated in CD11clowCD180+ cells compared with conventional dendritic cells (cDCs), suggesting that the former possess characteristics of immature DCs. Meanwhile, the CD11clowCD49b+ cells expressed IL-10 and Ctla4, and possessed greater lytic activity than resting NK cells. These observations suggest that both immature DCs (CD11clowCD180+) and cytotoxic cells (CD11clowCD49b+) might be expanded by α-GalCer-activated iNKT cells and could therefore be involved in immune tolerance. 相似文献

Conventional dendritic cells (DCs) are considered to be the prime initiators of airway allergy. Yet, it remains unclear whether specific DC subsets are preferentially involved in allergic airway sensitization. Here, we systematically assessed the respective pro-allergic potential of individually sorted lung DC subsets isolated from house dust mite antigen (HDM)-treated donor mice, following transfer to naïve recipients. Transfer of lung CD11c+CD11b+ DCs, but not CD11c+CD11b−CD103+ DCs, was sufficient to prime airway allergy. The CD11c+CD11b+ DC subpopulation was composed of CD11c+CD11b+Ly6C+ inflammatory monocyte-derived cells, whose numbers increase in the lungs following HDM exposure, and of CD11c+CD11b+Ly6C− DCs, which remain stable. Counterintuitively, only CD11c+CD11b+Ly6C− DCs, and not CD11c+CD11b+Ly6C+ DCs, were able to convey antigen to the lymph nodes and induce adaptive T cell responses and subsequent airway allergy. Our results thus support that lung resident non-inflammatory CD11c+CD11b+Ly6C− DCs are the essential inducers of allergic airway sensitization to the common aeroallergen HDM in mice. 相似文献

The importance of Galectin-3 (Gal-3) in obesity-associated liver pathology is incompletely defined. To dissect the role of Gal-3 in fibrotic nonalcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH), Gal-3-deficient (LGALS3−/−) and wild-type (LGALS3+/+) C57Bl/6 mice were placed on an obesogenic high fat diet (HFD, 60% kcal fat) or standard chow diet for 12 and 24 wks. Compared to WT mice, HFD-fed LGALS3−/− mice developed, in addition to increased visceral adiposity and diabetes, marked liver steatosis, which was accompanied with higher expression of hepatic PPAR-γ, Cd36, Abca-1 and FAS. However, as opposed to LGALS3−/− mice, hepatocellular damage, inflammation and fibrosis were more extensive in WT mice which had an elevated number of mature myeloid dendritic cells, proinflammatory CD11b+Ly6Chi monocytes/macrophages in liver, peripheral blood and bone marrow, and increased hepatic CCL2, F4/80, CD11c, TLR4, CD14, NLRP3 inflammasome, IL-1β and NADPH-oxidase enzymes mRNA expression. Thus, obesity-driven greater steatosis was uncoupled with attenuated fibrotic NASH in Gal-3-deficient mice. HFD-fed WT mice had a higher number of hepatocytes that strongly expressed IL-33 and hepatic CD11b+IL-13+ cells, increased levels of IL-33 and IL-13 and up-regulated IL-33, ST2 and IL-13 mRNA in liver compared with LGALS3−/− mice. IL-33 failed to induce ST2 upregulation and IL-13 production by LGALS3−/− peritoneal macrophages in vitro. Administration of IL-33 in vivo enhanced liver fibrosis in HFD-fed mice in both genotypes, albeit to a significantly lower extent in LGALS3−/− mice, which was associated with less numerous hepatic IL-13-expressing CD11b+ cells. The present study provides evidence of a novel role for Gal-3 in regulating IL-33-dependent liver fibrosis. 相似文献

We assessed the role of CCR5+/CCR6+/CD11b+/CD11c+ dendritic cells (DCs) for induction of ovalbumin (OVA)-specific antibody (Ab) responses following mucosal immunization. Mice given nasal OVA plus an adenovirus expressing Flt3 ligand (Ad-FL) showed early expansion of CCR5+/CCR6+/CD11b+/CD11c+ DCs in nasopharyngeal-associated lymphoid tissue (NALT) and cervical lymph nodes (CLNs). Subsequently, this DC subset became resident in submandibular glands (SMGs) and nasal passages (NPs) in response to high levels of CCR-ligands produced in these tissues. CD11b+/CD11c+ DCs were markedly decreased in both CCR5−/− and CCR6−/− mice. Chimera mice reconstituted with bone marrow cells from CD11c-diphtheria toxin receptor (CD11c-DTR) and CCR5−/− or CD11c-DTR and CCR6−/− mice given nasal OVA plus Ad-FL had elevated plasma IgG, but reduced IgA as well as low anti-OVA secretory IgA (SIgA )Ab responses in saliva and nasal washes. These results suggest that CCR5+CCR6+ DCs play an important role in the induction of Ag-specific SIgA Ab responses. 相似文献

The liver is a physiological site of immune tolerance, the breakdown of which induces immunity. Liver antigen-presenting cells may be involved in both immune tolerance and activation. Although inflammatory diseases of the liver are frequently associated with inflammatory bowel diseases, the underlying immunological mechanisms remain to be elucidated. Here we report two murine models of inflammatory bowel disease: RAG-2−/− mice adoptively transferred with CD4+CD45RBhigh T cells; and IL-10−/− mice, accompanied by the infiltration of mononuclear cells in the liver. Notably, CD11b−CD11clowPDCA-1+ plasmacytoid dendritic cells (DCs) abundantly residing in the liver of normal wild-type mice disappeared in colitic CD4+CD45RBhigh T cell-transferred RAG-2−/− mice and IL-10−/− mice in parallel with the emergence of macrophages (Mφs) and conventional DCs (cDCs). Furthermore, liver Mφ/cDCs emerging during intestinal inflammation not only promote the proliferation of naïve CD4+ T cells, but also instruct them to differentiate into IFN-γ-producing Th1 cells in vitro. The emergence of pathological Mφ/cDCs in the liver also occurred in a model of acute dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced colitis under specific pathogen-free conditions, but was canceled in germ-free conditions. Last, the Mφ/cDCs that emerged in acute DSS colitis significantly exacerbated Fas-mediated hepatitis. Collectively, intestinal inflammation skews the composition of antigen-presenting cells in the liver through signaling from commensal bacteria and predisposes the liver to inflammation. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) link the innate and adaptive immune system. Currently, murine DCs for cell biology investigations are developed from MHC class II-negative bone marrow (BM) precursor cells, non-depleted BM cells or BM monocytes in the presence of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). Here we demonstrate an isolation procedure of functionally intact myeloid CD11c+ CD11b+ DCs derived from murine CD34-positive precursors. DCs derived from CD34+ cells show functional internalization, maturation, cytokine secretion, MHC-restricted antigen presentation, and MHCII retrograde transport of antigens from the lysosomes to the cell surface. In comparison to the established method, the advantages of this isolation procedure are a shorter cultivation period, a superior transfection efficiency, the yield of a purer and more homogeneous population of immature DCs, and less consumption of cell culture medium and GM-CSF. The new isolation procedure and the functional quality of CD34+ cell-derived murine myeloid DCs make them ideally suited for immunology and cell biology studies. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) are involved in T cell activation via their uptake and presentation of antigens. In vivo function of DCs was analyzed using transgenic mouse models that express diphtheria toxin receptor (DTR) or the diphtheria toxin-A subunit (DTA) under the control of the CD11c/Itgax promoter. However, CD11c+ cells are heterogeneous populations that contain several DC subsets. Thus, the in vivo function of each subset of DCs remains to be elucidated. Here, we describe a new inducible DC ablation model, in which DTR expression is induced under the CD11c/Itgax promoter after Cre-mediated excision of a stop cassette (CD11c-iDTR). Crossing of CD11c-iDTR mice with CAG-Cre transgenic mice, expressing Cre recombinase under control of the cytomegalovirus immediate early enhancer-chicken beta-actin hybrid promoter, led to the generation of mice, in which DTR was selectively expressed in CD11c+ cells (iDTRΔ mice). We successfully deleted CD11c+ cells in bone marrow-derived DCs in vitro and splenic CD11c+ cells in vivo after DT treatment in iDTRΔ mice. This mouse strain will be a useful tool for generating mice lacking a specific subset of DCs using a transgenic mouse strain, in which the Cre gene is expressed by a DC subset-specific promoter. 相似文献

Vitamin A-deficient populations have impaired T cell-dependent antibody responses. Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most proficient antigen-presenting cells to naïve T cells. In the mouse, CD11b+ myeloid DCs stimulate T helper (Th) 2 antibody immune responses, while CD8α+ lymphoid DCs stimulate Th1 cell-mediated immune responses. Therefore, we hypothesized that vitamin A-deficient animals would have decreased numbers of myeloid DCs and unaffected numbers of lymphoid DCs. We performed dietary depletion of vitamin A in C57BL/6 J male and female mice and used multicolor flow cytometry to quantify immune cell populations of the spleen, with particular focus on DC subpopulations. We show that vitamin A-depleted animals have increased polymorphonuclear neutrophils, lymphoid DCs, and memory CD8+ T cells and decreased CD4+ T lymphocytes. Therefore, vitamin A deficiency alters splenic DC subpopulations, which may contribute to skewed immune responses of vitamin A-deficient populations. 相似文献

The cytokine interleukin IL‐35 is known to exert strong immunosuppressive functions. Indoleamine 2,3‐dioxygenase 1 (IDO1) and Arginase 1 (Arg1) are metabolic enzymes that, expressed by dendritic cells (DCs), contribute to immunoregulation. Here, we explored any possible link between IL‐35 and the activity of those enzymes. We transfected a single chain IL‐35Ig gene construct in murine splenic DCs (DC35) and assessed any IDO1 and Arg1 activities as resulting from ectopic IL‐35Ig expression, both in vitro and in vivo. Unlike Ido1, Arg1 expression was induced in vitro in DC35, and it conferred an immunosuppressive phenotype on those cells, as revealed by a delayed‐type hypersensitivity assay. Moreover, the in vivo onset of a tolerogenic phenotype in DC35 was associated with the detection of CD25+CD39+, rather than Foxp3+, regulatory T cells. Therefore, Arg1, but not Ido1, expression in DC35 appears to be an early event in IL‐35Ig–mediated immunosuppression. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells that are required for the initiation of the immune response. DCs have been shown to be generated from CD34+pluripotent hematopoietic progenitor cells in the bone marrow and cord blood (CB), but relatively little is known about the effect of cryopreservation on functional maturation of DCs from hematopoietic stem cells. In this work we report the generation of DCs from cryopreserved CB CD34+cells. CB CD34+cells were cryopreserved at −80°C for 2 days. Cryopreserved CB CD34+cells as well as freshly isolated CB CD34+cells cultured with granulocyte—macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF)/stem cell factor (SCF)/tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) for 14 days gave rise to CD1a+/CD4+/CD11c+/CD14−/CD40+/CD80+/CD83+/CD86+/HLA-DR+cells with dendritic morphology. DCs derived from cryopreserved CB CD34+cells showed a similar endocytic capacity for fluorescein isothiocyanate-labeled dextran and lucifer yellow when compared with DCs derived from freshly isolated CB CD34+cells. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that two CC chemokine receptors (CCRs), CCR-1 and CCR-3, were expressed on the cell surface of DCs derived from both cryopreserved and freshly isolated CB CD34+cells, and these DCs exhibited similar chemotactic migratory capacities in response to regulated on activation normal T-cell expressed and secreted. DCs derived from cryopreserved as well as freshly isolated CB CD34+cells were more efficient than peripheral blood mononuclear cells in the primary allogeneic T-cell response. These results indicate that frozen CB CD34+cells cultured with GM-CSF/TNF-α/SCF gave rise to dendritic cells which were morphologically, phenotypically and functionally similar to DCs derived from fresh CB CD34+cells. 相似文献

Accumulating evidence suggests a contribution of T cell-derived IL-17, IL-21 and IL-22 cytokines in skin immune homeostasis as well as inflammatory disorders. Here, we analyzed whether the cytokine-producing T lymphocytes could be induced by the different subsets of human skin dendritic cells (DCs), i.e., epidermal Langerhans cells (LCs), dermal CD1c+CD14− and CD14+ DCs (DDCs). DCs were purified following a 2-day migration from separated epidermal and dermal sheets and co-cultured with allogeneic T cells before cytokine secretion was explored. Results showed that no skin DCs could induce substantial IL-17 production by naïve CD4+ or CD8+T lymphocytes whereas all of them could induce IL-17 production by memory T cells. In contrast, LCs and CD1c+CD14−DDCs were able to differentiate naïve CD4+T lymphocytes into IL-22 and IL-21-secreting cells, LCs being the most efficient in this process. Intracellular cytokine staining showed that the majority of IL-21 or IL-22 secreting CD4+T lymphocytes did not co-synthesized IFN-γ, IL-4 or IL-17. IL-21 and IL-22 production were dependent on the B7/CD28 co-stimulatory pathway and ICOS-L expression on skin LCs significantly reduced IL-21 level. Finally, we found that TGF-β strongly down-regulates both IL-21 and IL-22 secretion by allogeneic CD4+ T cells. These results add new knowledge on the functional specialization of human skin DCs and might suggest new targets in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) as antigen presenting cells can stimulate naive CD4+ T cells and initiate the primary immune response which controls Th1/Th2 development. It has been suggested that DCs derived from different tissues have distinct properties. We investigated whether DCs from mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN), Peyer's patches (PP) and spleen (SPL) could induce different responses of naive CD4+ T cells to varying doses of antigen by using a co-culture system of DCs and T cells. DCs from each tissue induced IL-4 secretion from naive CD4+T cells in the presence of low dose antigenic peptide, and induced IFN-γ production at high doses of antigen. When purified CD11c+/B220? DCs were used, MLN-derived DCs induced a higher amount of IFN-γ secretion from naive CD4+ T cells, compared with SPL-derived DCs. We could not detect large differences in the expressions of costimulatory molecules on the surface of these two populations of DCs. On the other hand, we found that large amounts of IL-12 were secreted from MLN DCs in an antigen dose-dependent fashion. In conclusion, DCs from SPL, MLN and PP can induce the production of both IL-4 and IFN-γ from naive CD4+ T cells, depending on antigen dose. MLN-derived CD11c+/B220? DCs induce higher IFN-γ production from naive CD4+ T cells than SPL-derived DCs, through efficient IL-12 secretion. 相似文献

Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) might regulate T-cell activation and lineage commitment. Here, we measured the effects of omega-3 (n-3), n-6 and n-9 fatty acids on the interaction between dendritic cells (DCs) and naïve T cells. Spleen DCs from BALB/c mice were cultured in vitro with ovalbumin (OVA) with 50 μM fatty acids; α-linolenic acid, arachidonic acid (AA), eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), linoleic acid or oleic acid and thereafter OVA-specific DO11.10 T cells were added to the cultures. Fatty acids were taken up by the DCs, as shown by gas chromatography analysis. After culture with arachidonic acid or DHA CD11c+ CD11b+ and CD11c+ CD11bneg DCs expressed more CD40, CD80, CD83, CD86 and PDL-1, while IAd remained unchanged. However, fewer T cells co-cultured with these DCs proliferated (CellTrace Violetlow) and expressed CD69 or CD25, while more were necrotic (7AAD+). We noted an increased proportion of T cells with a regulatory T cell (Treg) phenotype, i.e., when gating on CD4+ FoxP3+ CTLA-4+, CD4+ FoxP3+ Helios+ or CD4+ FoxP3+ PD-1+, in co-cultures with arachidonic acid- or DHA-primed DCs relative to control cultures. The proportion of putative Tregs was inversely correlated to T-cell proliferation, indicating a suppressive function of these cells. With arachidonic acid DCs produced higher levels of prostaglandin E2 while T cells produced lower amounts of IL-10 and IFNγ. In conclusion arachidonic acid and DHA induced up-regulation of activation markers on DCs. However arachidonic acid- and DHA-primed DCs reduced T-cell proliferation and increased the proportion of T cells expressing FoxP3, indicating that these fatty acids can promote induction of regulatory T cells. 相似文献
