Cross-presentation is a crucial mechanism for generating CD8 T cell responses against exogenous Ags, such as dead cell-derived Ag, and is mainly fulfilled by CD8α(+) dendritic cells (DC). Apoptotic cell death occurring in steady-state conditions is largely tolerogenic, thus hampering the onset of effector CD8 T cell responses. Type I IFNs (IFN-I) have been shown to promote cross-priming of CD8 T cells against soluble or viral Ags, partly through stimulation of DC. By using UV-irradiated OVA-expressing mouse EG7 thymoma cells, we show that IFN-I promote intracellular Ag persistence in CD8α(+) DC that have engulfed apoptotic EG7 cells, regulating intracellular pH, thus enhancing cross-presentation of apoptotic EG7-derived OVA Ag by CD8α(+) DC. Notably, IFN-I also sustain the survival of Ag-bearing CD8α(+) DC by selective upmodulation of antiapoptotic genes and stimulate the activation of cross-presenting DC. The ensemble of these effects results in the induction of CD8 T cell effector response in vitro and in vivo. Overall, our data indicate that IFN-I cross-prime CD8 T cells against apoptotic cell-derived Ag both by licensing DC and by enhancing cross-presentation. 相似文献

There is an increasing body of evidence suggesting that the transfer of preformed MHC class I:peptide complexes between a virus-infected cell and an uninfected APC, termed cross-dressing, represents an important mechanism of Ag presentation to CD8(+) T cells in host defense. However, although it has been shown that memory CD8(+) T cells can be activated by uninfected dendritic cells (DCs) cross-dressed by Ag from virus-infected parenchymal cells, it is unknown whether conditions exist during virus infection in which naive CD8(+) T cells are primed and differentiate to cytolytic effectors through cross-dressing, and indeed which DC subset would be responsible. In this study, we determine whether the transfer of MHC class I:peptide complexes between infected and uninfected murine DC plays a role in CD8(+) T cell priming to viral Ags in vivo. We show that MHC class I:peptide complexes from peptide-pulsed or virus-infected DCs are indeed acquired by splenic CD8α(-) DCs in vivo. Furthermore, the acquired MHC class I:peptide complexes are functional in that they induced Ag-specific CD8(+) T cell effectors with cytolytic function. As CD8α(-) DCs are poor cross-presenters, this may represent the main mechanism by which CD8α(-) DCs present exogenously encountered Ag to CD8(+) T cells. The sharing of Ag as preformed MHC class I:peptide complexes between infected and uninfected DCs without the restraints of Ag processing may have evolved to accurately amplify the response and also engage multiple DC subsets critical in the generation of strong antiviral immunity. 相似文献

Cross-presentation of cell-associated Ags by dendritic cells (DC) plays an important role in immunity. DC in lymphoid tissues are short lived, being continuously replaced by precursors that proliferate and differentiate locally. Paradoxically, although TLR ligands promote immune responses and stimulate DC replenishment, they impair the cross-priming capacity of terminally differentiated splenic CD8α(+) DC, the major subset involved in cross-priming. In this study, we have investigated the cross-presentation capacity of newly generated murine DC and especially immediate precursors of CD8α(+) DC. We show that these DC do not cross-present Ag from dead cells unless stimulated by TLR ligands before Ag capture. TLR ligand CpG induced the expression of costimulatory molecules required for CD8 T cell activation but also regulated the intracellular mechanisms of cross-presentation such as Ag degradation rates without regulating Ag uptake. GM-CSF, an inflammatory cytokine associated with infections, also promoted cross-presentation acquisition by pre-CD8α(+) DC and synergized with TLR9 ligand. The concept that TLR ligands as well as inflammatory cytokines promote the acquisition of cross-presenting properties by pre-CD8α(+) DC has important implications during immune responses and when considering the use of these cells for vaccination. 相似文献

Cognate CD4+ help elicited by resting dendritic cells does not impair the induction of peripheral tolerance in CD8+ T cells 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Peripheral tolerance is required to prevent autoimmune tissue destruction by self-reactive T cells that escape negative selection in the thymus. One mechanism of peripheral tolerance in CD8(+) T cells is their activation by resting dendritic cells (DC). In contrast, DC can be "licensed" by CD4(+) T cells to induce cytotoxic function in CD8(+) T cells. The question that then arises, whether CD4(+) T cell help could impair peripheral tolerance induction in self-reactive CD8(+) T cells, has not been addressed. In this study we show that CD4(+) T cell activation by resting DC results in helper function that transiently promotes the expansion and differentiation of cognate CD8(+) T cells. However, both the CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cell populations ultimately undergo partial deletion and acquire Ag unresponsiveness, disabling their ability to destroy OVA-expressing pancreatic beta cells and cause diabetes. Thus, effective peripheral tolerance can be induced by resting DC in the presence of CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells with specificity for the same Ag. 相似文献

Dendritic cells loaded with stressed tumor cells elicit long-lasting protective tumor immunity in mice depleted of CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

Dendritic cell (DC)-based vaccination represents a promising approach to harness the specificity and potency of the immune system to combat cancer. Finding optimal strategies for tumor Ag preparation and subsequent pulsing of DC, as well as improving the immunogenicity of weak tumor Ags remain among the first challenges of this approach. In this report, we use a prophylactic vaccine consisting of DC loaded with whole, nonmanipulated B16-F10 melanoma cells that had been stressed by heat shock and gamma irradiation. Stressed B16-F10 cells underwent apoptosis and were internalized by bone marrow-derived DC during coculture. Surprisingly, coculture of DC with stressed B16-F10 undergoing apoptosis and necrosis did not induce DC maturation. However, a marked retardation in tumor growth was observed in C57BL/6 mice immunized using DC loaded with stressed B16-F10 cells and subsequently challenged with B16-F10 cells. Growth retardation was further increased by treating DC with LPS before in vivo administration. In vivo depletion studies revealed that both CD8(+) and CD4(+) T cells played a critical role in retarding tumor growth. In addition, treatment with anti-CD25 Ab to deplete CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells before DC vaccination considerably improved the effect of the vaccine and allowed the development of long-lived immune responses that were tumor protective. Our results demonstrate that depletion of regulatory T cells is an effective approach to improving the success of DC-based vaccination against weakly immunogenic tumors. Such a strategy can be readily applied to other tumor models and extended to therapeutic vaccination settings. 相似文献

Protracted psychological stress elevates circulating glucocorticoids, which can suppress CD8(+) T cell-mediated immunity, but the mechanisms are incompletely understood. Dendritic cells (DCs), required for initiating CTL responses, are vulnerable to stress/corticosterone, which can contribute to diminished CTL responses. Cross-priming of CD8(+) T cells by DCs is required for initiating CTL responses against many intracellular pathogens that do not infect DCs. We examined the effects of stress/corticosterone on MHC class I (MHC I) cross-presentation and priming and show that stress/corticosterone-exposed DCs have a reduced ability to cross-present OVA and activate MHC I-OVA(257-264)-specific T cells. Using a murine model of psychological stress and OVA-loaded β(2)-microglobulin knockout "donor" cells that cannot present Ag, DCs from stressed mice induced markedly less Ag-specific CTL proliferation in a glucocorticoid receptor-dependent manner, and endogenous in vivo T cell cytolytic activity generated by cross-presented Ag was greatly diminished. These deficits in cross-presentation/priming were not due to altered Ag donation, Ag uptake (phagocytosis, receptor-mediated endocytosis, or fluid-phase uptake), or costimulatory molecule expression by DCs. However, proteasome activity in corticosterone-treated DCs or splenic DCs from stressed mice was partially suppressed, which limits formation of antigenic peptide-MHC I complexes. In addition, the lymphoid tissue-resident CD11b(-)CD24(+)CD8α(+) DC subset, which carries out cross-presentation/priming, was preferentially depleted in stressed mice. At the same time, CD11b(-)CD24(+)CD8α(-) DC precursors were increased, suggesting a block in development of CD8α(+) DCs. Therefore, glucocorticoid-induced changes in both the cellular composition of the immune system and intracellular protein degradation contribute to impaired CTL priming in stressed mice. 相似文献

We have recently demonstrated that adoptive transfer of regulatory T cell-depleted polyclonal T cells into lymphopenic mice leads to rejection of B16 melanoma, which generated an opportunity to study host requirements for tumor rejection when it effectively occurred. CD8(+) T cell priming and tumor rejection required tumor Ag cross-presentation, as evidenced by tumor outgrowth in Kb(-/-) bone marrow chimeric or B71/2(-/-) mice. CD4(+) T cells were additionally required for optimal tumor control, although not through classical CD4 "help," as the frequency of primed CD8(+) T cells was similar in the absence of CD4(+) T cells, and tumor rejection did not depend upon CD40-CD40L interactions or on IL-2 production by CD4(+) T cells. Rather, CD4(+) T cells appeared to act at the effector phase of tumor rejection and responded to B16-derived Ags in vitro. At the effector phase, IFN-γ production by transferred T cells, but not host cells, was necessary. IFN-γ acted either on host or tumor cells and was associated with reduced tumor vascularity. Finally, tumor rejection occurred after transfer of TNF-α, perforin, or FasL-deficient T cells. However, perforin/FasL double-knockout T cells failed to reject, arguing that the killing of B16 melanoma cells could occur either via the cytotoxic granule or Fas pathways. Collectively, these results support a model in which host tumor Ag cross-presentation primes adoptively transferred T cells, which remain functional in the setting of homeostatic proliferation and regulatory T cell depletion, and which promote tumor rejection via IFN-γ and lysis via cytotoxic granules and/or FasL. 相似文献

The B lymphocyte adaptor molecule of 32 kDa (Bam32) is strongly induced during the maturation of dendritic cells (DC). Most known functions of Bam32 are related to the signaling of the B cell receptor for Ag. Because DC do not express receptors specific for Ags, we aim at characterizing the role of Bam32 in human monocyte-derived DC in this study. Our results show that binding of allogeneic T cells to mature DC causes accumulation of Bam32 on the contact sites and that this translocation is mimicked by Ab-mediated engagement of MHC class I. Silencing of Bam32 in mature monocyte-derived DC results in an enhanced proliferation of CD8(+) T cells in an Ag-specific T cell proliferation assay. Further studies identify galectin-1 as an intracellular binding partner of Bam32. Regulating immune responses via regulatory T cell (Treg) modulation is one of the many immunological activities attributed to galectin-1. Therefore, we assayed mixed leukocyte reactions for Treg expansion and found fewer Treg in reactions stimulated with DC silenced for Bam32 compared to reactions stimulated with DC treated with a nontarget control. Based on our findings, we propose a role for Bam32 in the signaling of MHC class I molecules in professional Ag-presenting DC for the regulation of CD8(+) T cell activation. It is distinct from that of MHC class I recognized by CD8(+) T cells leading to target [corrected] cell death. Thus, our data pinpoint a novel level of T cell regulation that may be of biological relevance. 相似文献

Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells immunized in the absence of CD4(+) T cell help, so-called "unhelped" CD8(+) T cells, are defective in function and survival. We investigated the role of the proapoptotic molecule TRAIL in this defect. We first demonstrate that TRAIL does not contribute to the CD8(+) T cell response to Listeria monocytogenes strain expressing OVA (LmOVA) in the presence of CD4(+) T cells. Secondly, we generated mice doubly deficient in CD4(+) T cells and TRAIL and analyzed their CD8(+) T cell response to LmOVA. Memory CD8(+) T cells in double-deficient mice waned over time and were not protective against rechallenge, similar to their TRAIL-sufficient unhelped counterparts. To avoid the effects of CD4(+) T cell deficiency during memory maintenance, and to address whether TRAIL plays a role in the early programming of the CD8(+) T cell response, we performed experiments using heterologous prime and early boost immunizations. We did not observe activation-induced cell death of unhelped CD8(+) T cells when mice were infected with followed vaccinia virus expressing OVA 9 days later by LmOVA infection. Furthermore, primary immunization of CD4(+) T cell-deficient mice with cell-associated Ag followed by LmOVA infection did not reveal a role for TRAIL-mediated activation-induced cell death. Overall, our results suggest that CD4(+) T cell help for the CD8(+) T cell response is not contingent on the silencing of TRAIL expression and prevention of TRAIL-mediated apoptosis. 相似文献

The activation and maintenance of Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells is central to the long-term control of persistent infections. These killer T cells act to continuously scan and remove reservoirs of pathogen that have eluded the acute immune response. Acutely cleared viral infections depend almost exclusively on dendritic cells (DC) to present Ags to, and to activate, the CD8(+) T cell response. Paradoxically, persistent pathogens often infect professional APCs such as DC, in addition to infecting a broad range of nonprofessional APC, raising the possibility that many cell types could present viral Ags and activate T cells. We addressed whether in persistent viral infection with murine gammaherpesviruses, DC or non-DC, such as B cells and macrophages, were required to maintain the continued activation of Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells. We found that presentation of the surrogate Ag, OVA, expressed under a lytic promoter to CD8(+) T cells during persistent infection was largely restricted to DC, with little contribution from other lymphoid resident cells, such as B cells. This is despite the fact that B cells harbor a very large reservoir of latent virus. Our results support that, during persistent viral infection, continual presentation of lytic Ags by DC leads to T cell activation critical for maintaining CD8(+) T cells capable of limiting persistent viral infection. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DC) are the professional APCs that initiate T cell immune responses. DC can develop from both myeloid and lymphoid progenitors. In the mouse, the CD8alpha(+) DC had been designated as "lymphoid" DC, and CD8alpha(-) DC as "myeloid" DC until recently when it was demonstrated that common myeloid progenitors can also give rise to CD8alpha(+) DC in bone marrow chimera mice. However, it is still not clear which committed myeloid lineages differentiate into CD8alpha(+) DC. Because monocytes can differentiate into DC in vivo, the simplest hypothesis is that the CD8alpha(+) DC can be derived from the monocyte/macrophage. In this study we show that cell clones, isolated from CD8alpha(+) DC lymphoma but with a monocytic phenotype (CD11c(low/-)D11b(high)CD8alpha(-)I-A(low)), can redifferentiate into CD8alpha(+) DC either when stimulated by LPS and CD40L or when they migrate into the lymphoid organs. Maturation of DC in vivo correlated with strong priming of allogeneic T cells. Moreover, the monocytes from cultured splenocytes or peritoneal exudates macrophages of wild-type mice are also capable of differentiating into CD11c(+)CD8alpha(+) DC after their migration into the draining lymph nodes. Our results suggest that monocytes can be direct precursors for CD11c(+)CD8alpha(+) DC in vivo. In addition, the monocyte clones described in this study may be valuable for studying the differentiation and function of CD8alpha(+) DC that mediate cross-presentation of Ag to CD8 T cells specific for cell-associate Ags. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DC) are potent antigen-presenting cells and central to the induction of immune responses following infection or vaccination. The collection of DC migrating from peripheral tissues by cannulation of the afferent lymphatic vessels provides DC which can be used directly ex vivo without extensive in vitro manipulations. We have previously used bovine migrating DC to show that recombinant human adenovirus 5 vectors efficiently transduce afferent lymph migrating DEC-205(+) CD11c(+) CD8(-) DC (ALDC). We have also shown that recombinant modified vaccinia virus Ankara (MVA) infects ALDC in vitro, causing downregulation of costimulatory molecules, apoptosis, and cell death. We now show that in the bovine system, modified vaccinia virus Ankara-induced apoptosis in DC draining from the skin occurs soon after virus binding via the caspase 8 pathway and is not associated with viral gene expression. We also show that after virus entry, the caspase 9 pathway cascade is initiated. The magnitude of T cell responses to mycobacterial antigen 85A (Ag85A) expressed by recombinant MVA-infected ALDC is increased by blocking caspase-induced apoptosis. Apoptotic bodies generated by recombinant MVA (rMVA)-Ag85A-infected ALDC and containing Ag85A were phagocytosed by noninfected migrating ALDC expressing SIRPα via actin-dependent phagocytosis, and these ALDC in turn presented antigen. However, the addition of fresh ALDC to MVA-infected cultures did not improve on the magnitude of the T cell responses; in contrast, these noninfected DC showed downregulation of major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II), CD40, CD80, and CD86. We also observed that MVA-infected ALDC promoted migration of DEC-205(+) SIRPα(+) CD21(+) DC as well as CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells independently of caspase activation. These in vitro studies show that induction of apoptosis in DC by MVA vectors is detrimental to the subsequent induction of T cell responses. 相似文献

It has been demonstrated that CD4(+) T cells require Ag persistence to achieve effective priming, whereas CD8(+) T cells are on "autopilot" after only a brief exposure. This finding presents a disturbing conundrum as it does not account for situations in which CD8(+) T cells require CD4(+) T cell help. We used a physiologic in vivo model to study the requirement of Ag persistence for the cross-priming of minor histocompatibility Ag-specific CD8(+) T cells. We report inefficient cross-priming in situations in which male cells are rapidly cleared. Strikingly, the failure to achieve robust CD8(+) T cell activation is not due to a problem with cross-presentation. In fact, by providing "extra help" in the form of dendritic cells (DCs) loaded with MHC class II peptide, it was possible to achieve robust activation of CD8(+) T cells. Our data suggest that the "licensing" of cross-presenting DCs does not occur during their initial encounter with CD4(+) T cells, thus accounting for the requirement for Ag persistence and suggesting that DCs make multiple interactions with CD8(+) T cells during the priming phase. These findings imply that long-lived Ag is critical for efficient vaccination protocols in which the CD8(+) T cell response is helper-dependent. 相似文献

The in vivo mechanisms of action of most vaccine adjuvants are poorly understood. In this study, we present data in mice that reveal a series of critical interactions between the cholera toxin (CT) adjuvant and the dendritic cells (DC) of the splenic marginal zone (MZ) that lead to effective priming of an immune response. For the first time, we have followed adjuvant targeting of MZ DC in vivo. We used CT-conjugated OVA and found that the Ag selectively accumulated in MZ DC following i.v. injections. The uptake of Ag into DC was GM1 ganglioside receptor dependent and mediated by the B subunit of CT (CTB). The targeted MZ DC were quite unique in their phenotype: CD11c(+), CD8alpha(-), CD11b(-), B220(-), and expressing intermediate or low levels of MHC class II and DEC205. Whereas CTB only delivered the Ag to MZ DC, the ADP-ribosyltransferase activity of CT was required for the maturation and migration of DC to the T cell zone, where these cells distinctly up-regulated CD86, but not CD80. This interaction appeared to instruct Ag-specific CD4(+) T cells to move into the B cell follicle and strongly support germinal center formations. These events may explain why CT-conjugated Ag is substantially more immunogenic than Ag admixed with soluble CT and why CTB-conjugated Ag can tolerize immune responses when given orally or at other mucosal sites. 相似文献

It has been reported that brain-infiltrating T lymphocytes play critical roles in the clearance of West Nile virus (WNV) from the brains of mice. We characterized brain-infiltrating T lymphocytes by analyzing the TCR α- and β-chain repertoires, T cell clonality, and CDR3 sequences. CD3(+)CD8(+) T cells were localized in the WNV-infected brains. The expression of CD3, CD8, CD25, CD69, perforin, and granzymes positively correlated with viral RNA levels, and high levels of expression of IFN-γ, TNF-α, and IL-2 were detected in the brains, suggesting that Th1-like cytotoxic CD8(+) T cells are expanded in the brains in response to WNV infection. The brain-infiltrating T lymphocytes dominantly used TCR genes, VA1-1, VA2-1, VB5-2, and VB8-2, and exhibited a highly oligoclonal TCR repertoire. Interestingly, the brain-infiltrating T lymphocytes had different patterns of TCR repertoire usages among WNV-, Japanese encephalitis virus-, and tick-borne encephalitis virus-infected mice. Moreover, CD8(+) T cells isolated from the brains of WNV-infected mice produced IFN-γ and TNF-α after in vitro stimulation with peritoneal cells infected with WNV, but not with Japanese encephalitis virus. The results suggest that the infiltrating CD8(+) T cells were WNV-specific, but not cross-reactive among flaviviruses. T cells from the WNV-infected brains exhibited identical or similar CDR3 sequences in TCRα among tested mice, but somewhat diverse sequences in TCRβ. The results indicate that WNV-specific CD3(+)CD8(+) T cells expanding in the infected brains are highly oligoclonal, and they suggest that TCR α-chains play a dominant and critical role in Ag specificity of WNV-specific T cells. 相似文献

The T cell-dependent B cell response relies on cognate interaction between B cells and CD4(+) Th cells. However, the consequences of this interaction for CD4(+) T cells are not entirely known. B cells generally promote CD4(+) T cell responses to pathogens, albeit to a variable degree. In contrast, CD4(+) T cell responses to self- or tumor Ags are often suppressed by B cells. In this study, we demonstrated that interaction with B cells dramatically inhibited the function of virus-specific CD4(+) T cells in retroviral infection. We have used Friend virus infection of mice as a model for retroviral infection, in which the behavior of virus-specific CD4(+) T cells was monitored according to their TCR avidity. We report that avidity for Ag and interaction with B cells determine distinct aspects of the primary CD4(+) T cell response to Friend virus infection. Virus-specific CD4(+) T cells followed exclusive Th1 and T follicular helper (Tfh) differentiation. High avidity for Ag facilitated expansion during priming and enhanced the capacity for IFN-γ and IL-21 production. In contrast, Tfh differentiation was not affected by avidity for Ag. By reducing or preventing B cell interaction, we found that B cells promoted Tfh differentiation, induced programmed death 1 expression, and inhibited IFN-γ production by virus-specific CD4(+) T cells. Ultimately, B cells protected hosts from CD4(+) T cell-mediated immune pathology, at the detriment of CD4(+) T cell-mediated protective immunity. Our results suggest that B cell presentation of vaccine Ags could be manipulated to direct the appropriate CD4(+) T cell response. 相似文献

The outcome of dendritic cell (DC) presentation of P815AB, a tolerogenic tumor/self peptide, depends on a balance between the respective immunogenic and tolerogenic properties of myeloid (CD8 alpha(-)) and lymphoid (CD8 alpha(+)) DC. We have previously shown that CD8(-) DC can be primed by IL-12 to overcome inhibition by the CD8(+) subset and initiate immunogenic presentation in vivo when the two types of peptide-pulsed DC are cotransferred into recipient hosts. IFN-gamma enhances the inhibitory activity of CD8(+) DC on Ag presentation by the other subset, blocking the ability of IL-12-treated CD8(-) DC to overcome suppression. We report here that CD40 ligation on lymphoid DC ablated their inhibitory function on Ag presentation as well as IFN-gamma potentiation of the effect. CD40 modulation of IFN-gamma action on lymphoid DC involved a reduction in IFN-gamma R expression and tryptophan-degrading ability. This effect was accompanied in vitro by an impaired capacity of the CD40-modulated and IFN-gamma-treated DC to initiate T cell apoptosis. In vivo, not only did CD40 triggering on lymphoid DC abrogate their tolerogenic activity, but it also induced the potential for immunogenic presentation of P815AB. Importantly, a pattern similar to P815AB as well as CD40 modulation of lymphoid DC function were observed on testing reactivity to NRP, a synthetic peptide mimotope recognized by diabetogenic CD8(+) T cells in nonobese diabetic mice. 相似文献

CD4(+) T cells are essential for the control of Yersinia enterocolitica (Ye) infection in mice. Ye can inhibit dendritic cell (DC) antigen uptake and degradation, maturation and subsequently T-cell activation in vitro. Here we investigated the effects of Ye infection on splenic DCs and T-cell proliferation in an experimental mouse infection model. We found that OVA-specific CD4(+) T cells had a reduced potential to proliferate when stimulated with OVA after infection with Ye compared to control mice. Additionally, proliferation of OVA-specific CD4(+) T cells was markedly reduced when cultured with splenic CD8α(+) DCs from Ye infected mice in the presence of OVA. In contrast, T-cell proliferation was not impaired in cultures with CD4(+) or CD4(-)CD8α(-) DCs isolated from Ye infected mice. However, OVA uptake and degradation as well as cytokine production were impaired in CD8α(+) DCs, but not in CD4(+) and CD4(-)CD8α(-) DCs after Ye infection. Pathogenicity factors (Yops) from Ye were most frequently injected into CD8α(+) DCs, resulting in less MHC class II and CD86 expression than on non-injected CD8α(+) DCs. Three days post infection with Ye the number of splenic CD8α(+) and CD4(+) DCs was reduced by 50% and 90%, respectively. The decreased number of DC subsets, which was dependent on TLR4 and TRIF signaling, was the result of a faster proliferation and suppressed de novo DC generation. Together, we show that Ye infection negatively regulates the stimulatory capacity of some but not all splenic DC subpopulations in vivo. This leads to differential antigen uptake and degradation, cytokine production, cell loss, and cell death rates in various DC subpopulations. The data suggest that these effects might be caused directly by injection of Yops into DCs and indirectly by affecting the homeostasis of CD4(+) and CD8α(+) DCs. These events may contribute to reduced T-cell proliferation and immune evasion of Ye. 相似文献

Cancer vaccines aim to induce CTL responses against tumors. Challenges for vaccine design are targeting Ag to dendritic cells (DCs) in vivo, facilitating cross-presentation, and conditioning the microenvironment for Th1 type immune responses. In this study, we report that ISCOM vaccines, which consist of ISCOMATRIX adjuvant and protein Ag, meet these challenges. Subcutaneous injection of an ISCOM vaccine in mice led to a substantial influx and activation of innate and adaptive immune effector cells in vaccine site-draining lymph nodes (VDLNs) as well as IFN-γ production by NK and NKT cells. Moreover, an ISCOM vaccine containing the model Ag OVA (OVA/ISCOM vaccine) was efficiently taken up by CD8α(+) DCs in VDLNs and induced their maturation and IL-12 production. Adoptive transfer of transgenic OT-I T cells revealed highly efficient cross-presentation of the OVA/ISCOM vaccine in vivo, whereas cross-presentation of soluble OVA was poor even at a 100-fold higher concentration. Cross-presenting activity was restricted to CD8α(+) DCs in VDLNs, whereas Langerin(+) DCs and CD8α(-) DCs were dispensable. Remarkably, compared with other adjuvant systems, the OVA/ISCOM vaccine induced a high frequency of OVA-specific CTLs capable of tumor cell killing in different tumor models. Thus, ISCOM vaccines combine potent immune activation with Ag delivery to CD8α(+) DCs in vivo for efficient induction of CTL responses. 相似文献
