Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in initiating immune responses. Despite this, there is little understanding how different DC subsets contribute to immunity to different pathogens. CD8alpha(+) DC have been shown to prime immunity to HSV. Whether this very limited capacity of a single DC subset priming CTL immunity is restricted to HSV infection or is a more general property of anti-viral immunity was examined. Here, we show that the CD8alpha(+) DCs are the principal DC subset that initiates CTL immunity to s.c. infection by influenza virus, HSV, and vaccinia virus. This same subset also dominated immunity after i.v. infection with all three viruses, suggesting a similar involvement in other routes of infection. These data highlight the general role played by CD8alpha(+) DCs in CTL priming to viral infection and raises the possibility that this DC subset is specialized for viral immunity. 相似文献

Use of the progesterone (Pg) birth control depot medroxyprogesterone acetate (DMPA) increases a woman's risk for sexually transmitted infection with HIV or HSV-2 via unknown mechanisms. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) are circulating and tissue-resident sentinels capable of making large quantities of IFN-alpha upon recognizing viruses through TLRs 7 and 9. In this study, we show that Pg inhibits TLR9-induced IFN-alpha production by human and mouse pDCs and that DMPA impairs TLR9- and virus-induced IFN-alpha production by pDCs in mice, providing a potential explanation for how DMPA impairs innate antiviral immunity in women. Pg failed to inhibit the Mda-5 pathway of IFN-alpha induction in dendritic cells, suggesting that Pg regulates select antiviral DC programs. This may occur through selective blockade of IFN regulatory factor-7 activation, a novel steroid action. Thus, through inhibition of TLR-mediated IFN-alpha production by pDCs, Pg may regulate antiviral immunity. 相似文献

To examine the different roles of myeloid dendritic cells (M-DCs) and plasmacytoid dendritic cells (P-DCs) in the induction and regulation of immune response, we have studied chemokine secretion by freshly isolated DC subsets in response to bacterial, viral, and T cell-derived stimuli. M-DCs selectively produced very high levels of the homeostatic chemokines CC chemokine ligand (CCL)17 and CCL22, while P-DCs produced very little if any. In contrast, the proinflammatory chemokine CCL3 was secreted mostly by P-DCs, whereas CCL4 and CXC chemokine ligand 8 were produced by both subsets. The selective production of CCL17 and CCL22 by M-DCs but not P-DCs was confirmed in vivo by immunohistology on human reactive lymph node sections. The high production of CCR4 ligands by M-DCs suggests their capacity to selectively recruit at sites of inflammation T cells with regulatory properties or with a Th2 phenotype, whereas P-DCs, by preferentially secreting CCR1/CCR5 ligands, would mostly recruit effector T cells and, in particular, Th1-type cells. 相似文献

TLR signaling leads to dendritic cell (DC) maturation and immunity to diverse pathogens. The stimulation of TLRs by conserved viral structures is the only described mechanism leading to DC maturation after a virus infection. In this report, we demonstrate that mouse myeloid DCs mature normally after in vivo and in vitro infection with Sendai virus (SeV) in the absence of TLR3, 7, 8, or 9 signaling. DC maturation by SeV requires virus replication not necessary for TLR-mediated triggering. Moreover, DCs deficient in TLR signaling efficiently prime for Th1 immunity after infection with influenza or SeV, generating IFN-gamma-producing T cells, CTLs and antiviral Abs. We have previously demonstrated that SeV induces DC maturation independently of the presence of type I IFN, which has been reported to mature DCs in a TLR-independent manner. The data presented here provide evidence for the existence of a novel intracellular pathway independent of TLR-mediated signaling responsible for live virus triggering of DC maturation and demonstrate its critical role in the onset of antiviral immunity. The revelation of this pathway should stimulate invigorating research into the mechanism for virus-induced DC maturation and immunity. 相似文献

Cutting edge: Expression of functional CD137 receptor by dendritic cells 总被引:27,自引:0,他引:27
Wilcox RA Chapoval AI Gorski KS Otsuji M Shin T Flies DB Tamada K Mittler RS Tsuchiya H Pardoll DM Chen L 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》2002,168(9):4262-4267
Interaction between dendritic cells (DCs) and T cells is a prerequisite for the initiation of a T cell response. The molecular nature of this interaction remains to be fully characterized. We report in this work that freshly isolated mouse splenic DCs and bone marrow-derived DCs express CD137 on the cell surface and in soluble form. Triggering CD137 increased the secretion of IL-6 and IL-12 from DCs. More importantly, infusion of an agonistic mAb to CD137 into naive mice enhanced the ability of DCs to stimulate T cell proliferation in response to both alloantigens and a nominal Ag in vitro. This enhancement of DC function is not mediated through activation of T cells, because the effect was also observed in RAG-1 knockout mice that lack T cells. Our findings implicate CD137 as an important receptor involved in the modulation of DC function. 相似文献

Cutting edge: selective usage of chemokine receptors by plasmacytoid dendritic cells 总被引:22,自引:0,他引:22
The existence of dendritic cell (DC) subsets is firmly established, but their trafficking properties are virtually unknown. In this study, we show that myeloid (M-DCs) and plasmacytoid (P-DCs) DCs isolated from human blood differ widely in the capacity to migrate to chemotactic stimuli. The pattern of chemokine receptors expressed by blood M-DCs and P-DCs, with the exception of CCR7, is similar. However, most chemokine receptors of P-DCs, in particular those specific for inflammatory chemokines and classical chemotactic agonists, are not functional in circulating cells. Following maturation induced by CD40 ligation, the receptors for inflammatory chemokines are down-regulated, and CCR7 on P-DCs becomes coupled to migration. The drastically impaired capacity of blood P-DCs to migrate in response to inflammatory chemotactic signals contrasts with the response to lymph node-homing chemokines, indicating a propensity to migrate to secondary lymphoid organs rather than to sites of inflammation. 相似文献

CD8(-) and CD8(+) dendritic cells (DCs) are distinct subsets of mouse splenic accessory cells with opposite but flexible programs of Ag presentation, leading to immunogenic and tolerogenic responses, respectively. In this study, we show that the default tolerogenic function of CD8(+) DCs relies on autocrine TGF-beta, which sustains the activation of IDO in response to environmental stimuli. CD8(-) DCs do not produce TGF-beta, yet externally added TGF-beta induces IDO and turns those cells from immunogenic into tolerogenic cells. The acquisition of a suppressive phenotype by CD8(-) DCs correlates with activation of the PI3K/Akt and noncanonical NF-kappaB pathways. These data are the first to link TGF-beta signaling with IDO in controlling spontaneous tolerogenesis by DCs. 相似文献

Angiogenesis plays an important role in tissue remodeling and repair during the late phase of inflammation. In the present study, we show that human dendritic cells (DC) that matured in the presence of anti-inflammatory molecules such as calcitriol, PGE2, or IL-10 (alternatively activated DC) selectively secrete the potent angiogenic cytokine vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) isoforms VEGF165 and VEGF121. No VEGF production was observed in immature or classically activated DC. Also, the capacity to produce VEGF was restricted to the myeloid DC subset. When implanted in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane, alternatively activated DC elicit a marked angiogenic response, which is inhibited by neutralizing anti-VEGF Abs and by the VEGFR-2 inhibitor SU5416. Therefore, alternatively activated DC may contribute to the resolution of the inflammatory reaction by promoting VEGF-induced angiogenesis. 相似文献

Monocyte-derived dendritic cells in innate and adaptive immunity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Monocytes have been classically considered essential elements in relation with innate immune responses against pathogens, and inflammatory processes caused by external aggressions, infection and autoimmune disease. However, although their potential to differentiate into dendritic cells (DCs) was discovered 14 years ago, their functional relevance with regard to adaptive immune responses has only been uncovered very recently. Studies performed over the last years have revealed that monocyte-derived DCs play an important role in innate and adaptive immunity, due to their microbicidal potential, capacity to stimulate CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell responses and ability to regulate Immunoglobulin production by B cells. In addition, monocyte-derived DCs not only constitute a subset of DCs formed at inflammatory foci, as previously thought, but also comprise different subsets of DCs located in antigen capture areas, such as the skin and the intestinal, respiratory and reproductive tracts. 相似文献

Caspase-8 is an essential component of death receptor-mediated apoptosis. Along with Fas-associated death domain protein, it is also essential for T cell proliferation in response to antigenic or mitogenic stimuli. To determine whether caspase-8 is also required for B cell proliferation, we generated mice with a B cell-specific Casp8 deficiency. Unlike T cells, caspase-8 was not required for Ag receptor-driven proliferation or Ab formation. Rather, Casp8-deficient B cells failed to proliferate in response to dsRNA and LPS, ligands for TLR3 and TLR4, respectively, but responded normally to the TLR9 agonist CpG DNA. Similarly, Ab production to trinitrophenol-LPS was selectively reduced in B cell-specific Casp8-deficient mice. The activation of NF-kappaB or IFN regulatory factor 3 was found to be unaffected by the loss of caspase-8, implicating it in a novel pathway important for some forms of innate immunity mediated by B cells. 相似文献

Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (DC) are professional APC and a major source of type I IFN following viral infection. We previously showed that histamine alters the cytokine profiles of maturing monocyte-derived DC resulting in a change from Th1 to Th2 in their T cell polarizing function. In this study, we show that human plasmacytoid DC, activated by either CpG oligodeoxynucleotides or viral infection, also respond to histamine through H2 receptors, leading to a marked down-regulation of IFN-alpha and TNF-alpha and a moderate switch in their capacity to polarize naive T cells. Our findings provide an explanation for low levels of type I IFN frequently observed in atopic individuals. 相似文献

A unique lymphoid lineage, Valpha14 NKT cells, bearing an invariant Ag receptor encoded by Valpha14 and Jalpha281 gene segments, play crucial roles in various immune responses, including protective immunity against malignant tumors. A specific ligand of Valpha14 NKT cells is determined to be alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) which is presented by the CD1d molecule. Here, we report that dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with alpha-GalCer effectively induce potent antitumor cytotoxic activity by specific activation of Valpha14 NKT cells, resulting in the inhibition of tumor metastasis in vivo. Moreover, a complete inhibition of B16 melanoma metastasis in the liver was observed when alpha-GalCer-pulsed DCs were injected even 7 days after transfer of tumor cells to syngeneic mice where small but multiple metastatic nodules were already formed. The potential utility of DCs pulsed with alpha-GalCer for tumor immunotherapy is discussed. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DC) are highly motile and play a key role in mediating immune responses in various tissues and lymphatic organs. We investigated locomotion of mononuclear cell-derived DC at different maturation stages toward gradients of sensory neuropeptides in vitro. Calcitonin gene-related peptide, vasoactive intestinal polypeptide, secretin, and secretoneurin induced immature DC chemotaxis comparable to the potency of RANTES, whereas substance P and macrophage-inflammatory protein-3beta stimulated immature cell migration only slightly. Checkerboard analyses revealed a true chemotactic response induced by neuropeptides. Upon maturation of DC, neuropeptides inhibited spontaneous, macrophage-inflammatory protein-3beta- and 6Ckine-induced cell migration. Maturation-dependent changes in migratory behavior coincided with distinct neuropeptide-induced signal transduction in DC. Peripheral neuropeptides might guide immature DC to peripheral nerve fibers where high concentrations of these peptides can arrest the meanwhile matured cells. It seems that one function of sensory nerves is to fasten DC at sites of inflammation. 相似文献

Dendritic cells (DCs) are specialized, bone marrow-derived leukocytes that are critical to the development of immunity. Investigators have emphasized the role of DCs in initiating adaptive or acquired MHC-restricted, Ag-specific T cell responses. More recent evidence supports important roles for DCs in the onset of innate immunity and peripheral tolerance. Progress in the generation of DCs from defined hemopoietic precursors in vitro has revealed the heterogeneity of these APCs and their attendant divisions of labor. This review will address these developments in an attempt to integrate the activities of different DCs in coordinating innate and adaptive immunity. 相似文献

Fas ligand (FasL)-expressing tumor cells are found to effectively mediate rejection of the coinoculated FasL negative parental cells while having no effect on the growth of histologically distinct tumor cells. These observations indicate that FasL induces a specific immune response against Ag derived from FasL-bearing tumors and suggest a possible role for FasL in tumor Ag presentation. Indeed, tumor cells expressing FasL can efficiently interact with dendritic cells (DCs) and this interaction requires the expression of membrane-bound FasL on tumors and Fas on DCs. Moreover, DCs cocultured with FasL-expressing tumors are able to elicit a tumor-specific immune response in vivo, suggesting that DCs acquire tumor Ag during the Fas/FasL-mediated DC-tumor contact. These results identify a novel role for FasL in augmenting tumor-DC interactions and subsequent tumor Ag acquisition by DCs, and suggest that FasL-expressing tumor cells could be used to generate tumor-specific DC vaccines. 相似文献

We investigated the influence of dendritic cell (DC) CD40 expression on Th2 and Th1 development by in vivo transfer of Ag-pulsed bone marrow-derived DC generated from wild-type (WT) or CD40(-/-) mice. Contrary to expectation, CD40(-/-) DC primed with Ag that inherently induce a Th2 response (soluble egg Ag from Schistosoma mansoni) failed to induce a Th2 response or any compensatory Th1 response, whereas CD40(-/-)DC primed with Ag that inherently induce a Th1 response (Propionibacterium acnes) generated a competent Th1 response. Thus, DC expression of CD40 is a prerequisite for initiation of Th2, but not Th1, responses by these Ag. Consistent with this, CD154(-/-) mice, unlike WT mice, failed to mount a Th2 response when directly injected with schistosome eggs but mounted a normal Th1 response after challenge with P. acnes. CD40-CD154 interaction can therefore play a major role in Th2 response induction. 相似文献

NK cells protect hosts against viral pathogens and transformed cells, and dendritic cells (DCs) play important roles in activating NK cells. We now find that murine IL-15Ralpha-deficient DCs fail to support NK cell cytolytic activity and elaboration of IFN-gamma, despite the fact that these DCs express normal levels of costimulatory molecules and IL-12. By contrast, IL-15Ralpha expression on NK cells is entirely dispensable for their activation by DCs. In addition, blockade with anti-IL-15Ralpha and anti-IL-2Rbeta but not anti-IL-2Ralpha-specific Abs prevents NK cell activation by wild-type DCs. Finally, presentation of IL-15 by purified IL-15Ralpha/Fc in trans synergizes with IL-12 to support NK cell priming. These findings suggest that murine DCs require IL-15Ralpha to present IL-15 in trans to NK cells during NK cell priming. 相似文献

Cutting edge: dissociation between autoimmune response and clinical disease after vaccination with dendritic cells 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6

Autoimmunity represents a caveat to the use of dendritic cells (DCs) as adjuvant for human vaccines. We derived DCs from normal BALB/c mice or from mice prone to autoimmunity (NZB x NZW) F(1). We allowed DCs to phagocytose apoptotic thymocytes and vaccinated syngeneic animals. All mice developed anti-nuclear and anti-dsDNA Abs. Autoantibodies in normal mice were transient, without clinical or histological features of autoimmunity or tissue involvement. In contrast, autoimmunity was maintained in susceptible mice, which underwent renal failure and precociously died. The data suggest that DC vaccination consistently triggers autoimmune responses. However, clinical autoimmunity develops in susceptible subjects only. 相似文献

Interferon-producing killer dendritic cells provide a link between innate and adaptive immunity 总被引:33,自引:0,他引:33

Natural killer (NK) cells and dendritic cells (DCs) are, respectively, central components of innate and adaptive immune responses. We describe here a third DC lineage, termed interferon-producing killer DCs (IKDCs), distinct from conventional DCs and plasmacytoid DCs and with the molecular expression profile of both NK cells and DCs. They produce substantial amounts of type I interferons (IFN) and interleukin (IL)-12 or IFN-gamma, depending on activation stimuli. Upon stimulation with CpG oligodeoxynucleotides, ligands for Toll-like receptor (TLR)-9, IKDCs kill typical NK target cells using NK-activating receptors. Their cytolytic capacity subsequently diminishes, associated with the loss of NKG2D receptor (also known as Klrk1) and its adaptors, Dap10 and Dap12. As cytotoxicity is lost, DC-like antigen-presenting activity is gained, associated with upregulation of surface major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC II) and costimulatory molecules, which formally distinguish them from classical NK cells. In vivo, splenic IKDCs preferentially show NK function and, upon systemic infection, migrate to lymph nodes, where they primarily show antigen-presenting cell activity. By virtue of their capacity to kill target cells, followed by antigen presentation, IKDCs provide a link between innate and adaptive immunity. 相似文献
