TLR-stimulated CD34 stem cell-derived human skin-like and monocyte-derived dendritic cells fail to induce Th17 polarization of naive T cells but do stimulate Th1 and Th17 memory responses.

چکیده
Dendritic cells (DCs) are important in linking innate and adaptive immune responses by priming and polarizing naive CD4(+) Th cells, but little is known about the effect of different human DC subsets on Th cells, particularly Th17 cells. We have investigated the ability of TLR-stimulated human Langerhans cells (LC), dermal DCs (dDC), and monocyte-derived DCs (moDC) to affect naive and memory Th17 and Th1 responses. MoDCs stimulated greater memory T cell proliferation while LCs and dDCs more potently stimulated naive T cell proliferation, indicating functionally distinct subsets of DCs. TLR stimulation of all three DC types was unable to induce Th17 polarization from naive T cell precursors, despite inducing Th1 polarization. Dectin stimulation of DCs in IMDM was however able to produce Th17 cells. TLR-stimulated DCs were capable of inducing IL-17A and IFN-gamma production from memory T cells, although the mechanism used by each DC subset differed. MoDCs partially mediated this effect on memory Th1 and Th17 cells by the production of soluble factors, which correlated with their ability to secrete IL-12p70 and IL-23. In contrast, LCs and dDCs were able to elicit a similar memory response to moDCs, but in a contact dependent manner. Additionally, the influence of microbial stimulation was demonstrated with TLR3 and TLR7/8 agonists inducing a Th1 response, whereas TLR2 or dectin stimulation of moDCs enhanced the IL-17 response. This study emphasizes the differences between human DC subsets and demonstrates that both the DC subset and the microbial stimulus influence the Th cell response.

Evaluation of the Immunomodulatory Effect of Curdlan on Maturation and Function of Mouse Spleen-Derived Dendritic Cells
Background: T helper 1 and T helper 17 cells play important roles in immunity against foreign invaders. Differentiation of these Th subsets is affected by state of maturation and cytokines that are produced by dendritic cells (DCs). Curdlan is a linear (1→3)-β- glucan and has shown activity against tumors and infectious agents. Objective: This study aims to investigate whether curdlan plays its...
متن کاملLymph node invasion by tumor cells modifies the distribution of dendritic cell subsets and memory T cell profiles in human cancer patients
Introduction In human breast cancer, the invasion of tumor-draining lymph nodes (TDLNs) is an important step in disease progression and has predictive value [1]. TDLN dendritic cells (DCs), which are comprised of lymphoid-organ-resident and skin-derived migratory DCs, present tumor antigens to the naïve T cells and induce their activation and polarization into different functional subsets (Th1,...
متن کاملRetinoic acid-primed human dendritic cells inhibit Th9 cells and induce Th1/Th17 cell differentiation.
All-trans-retinoic acid plays a central role in mucosal immunity, where it promotes its synthesis by up-regulating CD103 expression on dendritic cells, induces gut tropic (α4β7(+) and CCR9(+)) T cells, and inhibits Th1/Th17 differentiation. Recently, murine studies have highlighted the proinflammatory role of retinoic acid in maintaining inflammation under a variety of pathologic conditions. Ho...
متن کاملHuman fibroblasts support the expansion of IL-17-producing T cells via up-regulation of IL-23 production by dendritic cells.
The initiation of immune responses is associated with the maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) and their migration to draining lymph nodes. En route activated DCs encounter cells of the tissue microenvironment, such as fibroblasts. Because we have shown that DCs interact with fibroblasts during immune responses, we studied the impact of skin fibroblasts on human monocyte-derived DC function and ...
متن کاملPotent induction of antibody-secreting B cells by human dermal-derived CD14+ dendritic cells triggered by dual TLR ligation.
Targeting CD14(+) dermal-derived dendritic cells (DDCs) is a rational approach for vaccination strategies aimed at improving humoral immune responses, because of their natural ability to stimulate naive B cells. In this study, we show that CD14(+) DDCs express mRNA for TLRs 1-9, but respond differentially to single or paired TLR ligands. Compared to single ligands, some combinations were partic...
