TLR2 and Dectin-1 Signaling in Mouse Hematopoietic Stem and Progenitor Cells Impacts the Ability of the Antigen Presenting Cells They Produce to Acti…
2020
Microbial recognition by pattern recognition receptors (PRRs) expressed on hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) not only activates myelopoiesis but also programs the function of the monocytes and macrophages they produce. For instance, changes in HSPC programming modify the ability of macrophages derived from them to produce inflammatory cytokines. While HSPCs exposed to a TLR2 agonist give rise to tolerized macrophages (lower proinflammatory cytokine production), HSPCs treated with Dectin-1 ligands produce trained macrophages (higher proinflammatory cytokine production). However, nothing is known about the impact of HSPC exposure to microbes on the function of antigen presenting…
Expresión de las moléculas del Complejo Mayor de Histocompatibilidad clase II y moléculas co-estimuladoras en carcinomas orales in vitro
2005
El descubrimiento de que el epitelio escamoso estratificado que cubre la mucosa oral podia expresar moleculas del Complejo Mayor de Histocompatibilidad clase II en varias condiciones patologicas de tipo inflamatorio abrio la posibilidad de que los queratinocitos orales sean celulas inmunologicamente activas, las cuales pueden funcionar con .celulas presentadoras de antigenos'ñ. Para una efectiva activacion de los linfocitos T, las celulas presentadoras de antigenos requieren, ademas de la expresion de moleculas del Complejo Mayor de Histocompatibilidad clase II, senales co-estimuladoras. El proposito del presente estudio fue determinar la expresion de moleculas del Complejo Mayor de Histoco…
CD40 signalling induces IL-10-producing, tolerogenic dendritic cells
2010
Dendritic cells (DC) are potent antigen-presenting cells capable to induce efficient antigen-specific T cell responses in vitro and in vivo. Herein, the maturation process is of great significance, as immature DC (iDC) are known to induce rather regulatory than effector T cell differentiation. This study was designed to characterize the role of the CD40-CD40L pathway for differentiation and function of human DC. Therefore, iDC were stimulated through CD40-CD40L interaction by transduction of DC with adenoviral vectors encoding for CD40L (Ad-CD40L). Resulting DC (CD40L-DC) were analysed concerning their phenotype, cytokine profile and T cell stimulatory capacity. Transduction induced a DC ph…
B7-1 and B7-2 act differentially in the induction of a T cell response: their impact for a HLA-matched and HLA-mismatched anti-tumor immunotherapy.
2005
The efficacy of T cell-based immunotherapy is primarily due to efficient cellular activation that requires the engagement of 2 separate signals, i.e., via the T cell receptor complex and via co-stimulatory molecules the prototype of which is CD28. In cellular activation, the CD28 ligands B7-1 (CD80) and B7-2 (CD86) are thought to play nearly identical roles in T cell activation. We monitored the T cell response upon co-culture with HLA Class I-matched and mismatched renal carcinoma cells, respectively, that express different levels of B7-1 and B7-2, respectively. In a HLA Class I-mismatched co-culture, T cell proliferation, IFN-γ and GM-CSF secretion equally depend on the levels of B7-1 and…
Isolation of Differentially Expressed Genes in Epidermal Langerhans Cells
1997
Epidermal Langerhans cells (LC) represent immature dendritic cells (DC) resident in the skin, which are not yet able to prime naive T cells1. In vitro cultivation of LC in the presence of keratinocytes, supplying survival and differentiation signals, induces maturation events in LC2. These are highlighted by the downregulation of the biosynthesis of MHC class II molecules3, by the upregulation of the surface expression of adhesion and costimulatory molecules like CD80, CD86, CD54 and CD584,5, and by the acquisition of a potent immunostimulatory capacity for T cells6. Mature LC are potent inducers of naive T cells. Thus LC represent an ideal model system to investigate the maturation of DC (…
ICOS and CD28 reversely regulate IL-10 on re-activation of human effector T cells with mature dendritic cells
2002
With newly generated ICOS-ligand (ICOS-L)-specific monoclonal antibodies we determined that human Langerhans cells in situ express similar levels of ICOS-L, CD80, and CD86, compared to immature dendritic cells (DC) derived from monocytes in vitro. Maturation of DC strongly up-regulated CD80 and CD86 but did not significantly change ICOS-L levels. On coculture of "naive"CD4(+) T cells with mature DC in the presence of superantigen, ICOS was highly up-regulated on T cells, but played only a secondary role in the CD28-dominated release of TNF-alpha and IFN-gamma, and did not participate in the induction of IL-2. Cocultures of "effector" CD4(+) T cells with mature DC revealed CD28 as the drivin…
Tumor-Derived Lactic Acid Modulates Dendritic Cell Activation and Differentiation.
2004
Abstract The tumor milieu can influence DC differentiation in vivo and in vitro. We analyzed DC differentiation in a 3-dimensional tumor model and propose a new mechanism of DC modulation by the tumor environment. Monocytes were cultured in the presence of IL-4 and GM-CSF within multicellular tumor spheroids (MCTS) generated from urothelial carcinoma (J82, UMUC3) and melanoma cell lines (MelIm, Mel108). Monocytes invaded the tumor spheroids and differentiated into tumor-associated dendritic cells (TADC) that displayed an altered phenotype compared to DC generated without tumor contact. The expression of CD1a was reduced on TADC whereas CD80, CD86 and CD16 were upregulated. In addition, TADC…
Differences in Dendritic Cell Activation and Distribution After Intravenous, Intraperitoneal, and Subcutaneous Injection of Lymphoma Cells in Mice
2007
Dendritic cells (DCs) are key antigen-presenting cells (APCs) for initiating immune responses. However, in recent years, several groups have shown the defective function of DCs in tumor-bearing mice and in cancer patients. Our aim was to study the effects of lymphoma on DC differentiation and maturation and to assess the input of the tumor microenvironment and intravasation of tumor cells on DC precursors. EL-4 lymphoma cells were administrated via different routes (intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, and intravenous) and DC phenotype was investigated. Bone marrow-derived DCs and APCs obtained from the spleen were examined by flow cytometry, and immunohistochemical analysis of lymphoma, lungs, l…
Monocyte-derived dendritic cells of patients with coronary artery disease show an increased expression of costimulatory molecules CD40, CD80 and CD86…
2007
Background Atherosclerosis is a disease triggered by diverse exogenous stimuli and sustained by chronic inflammatory processes. Dendritic cells (DCs) are key regulatory antigen-presenting cells and play a crucial role in regulating the adaptive and innate immune system in any chronic inflammatory process. DCs are present in atherosclerotic lesions in the areas of the highest T-cell density. So far, their role in atherosclerosis has not been fully elucidated. We investigated the phenotypic properties of DCs in patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) in comparison to healthy individuals. Methods Peripheral blood monocytes were isolated from 50 patients with CAD and 19 healthy individuals …
Cyclic adenosine monophosphate and IL-10 coordinately contribute to nTreg cell-mediated suppression of dendritic cell activation
2010
In humans and mice naturally occurring regulatory T cells (nTregs) are crucial for the maintenance of peripheral tolerance by controlling not only potentially autoreactive T cells but virtually all cells of the adaptive and innate immune system. Here we show that co-culture of murine dendritic cells (DC) and nTregs results in an immediate increase of cAMP in DC, responsible for a rapid down-regulation of co-stimulatory molecules (CD80, CD86). In addition, the inhibitory surface molecule B7-H3 on DC is up-regulated. Subsequently, nTreg-derived IL-10 inhibits the cytokine production (IL-6, IL-12) of suppressed DC therewith preserving their silent phenotype. Hence, our data indicate that nTreg…
