Liver dendritic cells present bacterial antigens and produce cytokines upon Salmonella encounter.
The capacity of murine liver dendritic cells (DC) to present bacterial Ags and produce cytokines after encounter with Salmonella was studied. Freshly isolated, nonparenchymal liver CD11c(+) cells had heterogeneous expression of MHC class II and CD11b and a low level of CD40 and CD86 expression. Characterization of liver DC subsets revealed that CD8alpha(-)CD4(-) double negative cells constitute...
متن کاملPlasmacytoid dendritic cells are activated by Toxoplasma gondii to present antigen and produce cytokines.
Infection with the parasite Toxoplasma gondii leads to the induction of a Th1-type response dominated by IFN-gamma production and control of this pathogen. Cells of the innate immune system are essential in initiating this response both through the production of IL-12 as well as the presentation of parasite-derived Ags to MHC-restricted T cells. Although dendritic cells (DCs) have been implicat...
متن کاملApoptotic Plasmodium-infected hepatocytes provide antigens to liver dendritic cells.
Malaria starts with infection of the host liver by Plasmodium sporozoites. Inoculation with radiation-attenuated Plasmodium sporozoites induces complete protection against malaria. Protection is mediated by dendritic cells (DCs) and CD8(+) T cells, but the source of parasite antigens mediating this response remains unclear. Here, we show that hepatocytes infected with irradiated Plasmodium spor...
متن کاملHuman CD141+ dendritic cells induce CD4+ T cells to produce type 2 cytokines.
Dendritic cells (DCs) play the central role in the priming of naive T cells and the differentiation of unique effector T cells. In this study, using lung tissues and blood from both humans and humanized mice, we analyzed the response of human CD1c(+) and CD141(+) DC subsets to live-attenuated influenza virus. Specifically, we analyzed the type of CD4(+) T cell immunity elicited by live-attenuat...
متن کاملUptake of Autologous and Allogenic Tumor Cell Antigens by Dendritic Cells
Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen presenting cells (APCs), and there is considerable interest in their application as a cellular adjuvant for cancer immunotherapy. Previous studies indirectly demonstrated that DCs were able to take up tumor lysate (crude soluble tumor antigens) and also cross-present tumor associated antigens (TAA) which elicits anti-tumor immune respo...
