Human CD4+CD25high regulatory T cells modulate myeloid but not plasmacytoid dendritic cells activation.

چکیده
Human CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells (Treg) play an essential role in the prevention of autoimmune diseases. However, the mechanisms of immune suppression and the spectrum of cells they target in vivo remain incompletely defined. In particular, although Treg directly suppress conventional T cells in vitro, they have been shown to inhibit the Ag-presenting functions of macrophage- and monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC). We have now studied the maturation of human blood-derived myeloid DC and plasmacytoid DC activated with TLR ligands in the presence of Treg. Preactivated Treg suppressed strongly TLR-triggered myeloid DC maturation, as judged by the blocking of costimulatory molecule up-regulation and the inhibition of proinflammatory cytokines secretion that resulted in poor Ag presentation capacity. Although IL-10 played a prominent role in inhibiting cytokines secretion, suppression of phenotypic maturation required cell-cell contact and was independent of TGF-beta and CTLA-4. In contrast, the acquisition of maturation markers and production of cytokines by plasmacytoid DC triggered with TLR ligands were insensitive to regulatory T cells. Therefore, human Treg may enlist myeloid, but not plasmacytoid DC for the initiation and the amplification of tolerance in vivo by restraining their maturation after TLR stimulation.

Evaluation of Possible Role of Dendritic Cells in Various Lupus Nephritis
Background & Objectives: Chronicity of lupus nephritis (LN) should be considered for interaction of cell mediated immunity (CMI) and dendritic cells in glomeruli and tubulointerstitial areas. In this study establishment of immunohistopathological changes of dendritic cells and other immune effector cells in lupus nephritis comparing with non-lupus nephritis was performed. Materials & Methods: ...
متن کاملHuman Leukocyte Antigen-G Expression on Dendritic Cells Induced by Transforming Growth Factor-β1 and CD4+ T Cells Proliferation
Background: During antigen capture and processing, mature dendritic cells (DC) express large amounts of peptide-MHC complexes and accessory molecules on their surface. DC are antigen-presenting cells that have an important role in tolerance and autoimmunity. The transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) cytokine has a regulatory role on the immune and non-immune cells. The aim of this study is ...
متن کاملPlasmacytoid dendritic cells induce CD8+ regulatory T cells in human ovarian carcinoma.
To directly dissect the role of each immune component in human tumor immunopathogenesis, we have studied the interaction between dendritic cells and T cells in the tumor environment of patients with ovarian carcinoma. We previously reported that functional plasmacytoid dendritic cells, but not functionally mature myeloid dendritic cells, accumulated in tumor microenvironments. We now show that ...
متن کاملCutting edge: central nervous system plasmacytoid dendritic cells regulate the severity of relapsing experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) have both stimulatory and regulatory effects on T cells. pDCs are a major CNS-infiltrating dendritic cell population during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis but, unlike myeloid dendritic cells, have a minor role in T cell activation and epitope spreading. We show that depletion of pDCs during either the acute or relapse phases of experimental autoimm...
