Lineage relationship in human dendritic cells

ABSTRACT: The lineage relationships and fate of human blood and tissue dendritic cells (DC) has significance for a number of diseases including HIV where both blood and tissue DC may be infected. We used gene expression profiling of monocyte and DC sub-populations sorted directly from blood and skin and compared this to monocyte derived DC (MDDC) and MUTZ3 Langerhans cells (LCs) to define the lineage relationships. Hierarchical clustering analysis showed that plasmacytoid DCs formed the most discrete cluster. The ex vivo derived myeloid cells formed two separate clusters of cells derived from blood, and skin. Separate and specific DC populations could be determined within the sub-clusters. During overnight culture CD14+ dermal DCs (DDC) converted to CD1a+ expressing cells in situ consistent with origin of the CD1a+ DDC from a local precursor rather than from circulating blood DC or monocyte precursors. The in vitro derived MDDC and MUTZ3 populations grouped within the skin DC cluster and MDDCs clustered most closely to CD14+ DDC consistent with the proposed similarity between these two cell types. We identified differential expression of novel genes in particular DC subsets including genes related to DC surface receptors (including C-type lectin receptors, toll-like receptors and galectins). Total RNA was extracted and hybridised to 24 bead arrays.

Detection of miRNAs in exosomes released by mouse immature and mature dendritic cells

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are the most potent antigen (Ag)-presenting cells. Whereas immature DCs down-regulate T cell responses to induce/maintain immunological tolerance, mature DCs promote immunity. To amplify their functions, DCs communicate with neighboring DCs through soluble mediators, cell-to-cell contact and vesicle exchange. Transfer of nanovesicles (<100nm) derived from the endocytic pathway (termed exosomes) represents a novel mechanism of DC-to-DC communication. The facts that exosomes contain exosome-shuttle microRNAs (miRNAs), and DC functions can be regulated by exogenous miRNAs, suggest that DC-to-DC interactions could be mediated through exosome-shuttle miRNAs, an hypothesis that remains to be tested. Importantly, the mechanism of transfer of exosome-shuttle miRNAs from the exosome lumen to the cytosol of target cells is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that DCs release exosomes with different miRNAs depending on the maturation of the DCs. By visualizing spontaneous transfer of exosomes between DCs, we demonstrate that exosomes fused with the target DCs, the latter followed by release of the exosome content into the DC cytosol. Importantly, exosome-shuttle miRNAs are functional, as they repress target mRNAs of acceptor DCs. Our findings unveil a mechanism of transfer of exosome-shuttle miRNAs between DCs and its role as a means of communication and post-transcriptional regulation between DCs. The study has analyzed the microRNA content of 4 samples of immature exosomes, 4 samples of matures exosomes, 2 samples of immature bone-marrow-derived DCs, and 2 samples of mature bone marrow-derived DCs.

Gene expression in dendritic cells stimulated with LPS in conditions allowing or inhibiting NFAT activation

Project description:Interleukin-2 (IL-2) is one of the molecules produced by mouse dendritic cells (DCs) after stimulation by Toll like receptor (TLR) agonists. By analogy with the events following T-cell receptor (TCR) engagement leading to IL-2 production we have observed that DC stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces Src-family kinase and phospholipase C (PLC)Î³2 activation, influx of extracellular Ca2+ and calcineurin-dependent nuclear NFAT translocation. We have also observed that the initiation of this pathway is independent of TLR4 engagement, and dependent exclusively on CD14. To determine the role of NFAT in LPS activated dendritic cells we have performed microarray analysis in conditions allowing or inhibiting NFAT activation. We show here that LPS-induced NFAT activation via CD14 is necessary to cause death of terminally differentiated DCs, an event that is essential for maintaining self-tolerance and preventing autoimmunity. Consequently, blocking this pathway in vivo causes prolonged DC survival and an increase in T cell priming capability. Gene expression analyses were performed using Affymetrix GeneChips in the following groups of murine bone marrow-derived dendritic cells: 1) CD14-deficient BMDCs stimulated with LPS; 2) wtBMDCs stimulated with LPS in presence of EGTA; 3) wtBMDCs stimulated with LPS. This experimental setting allowed us to select for effects due to Ca2+ fluxes and exclude the effects due to other causes, particularly the block of TRIF recruitment in CD14-deficient cells and the EGTA effects unrelated to Ca2+ chelation.

Effect of DC-SCRIPT expression in MCF7 breast cancer cell line

Project description:Breast cancer is one of the most common causes of cancer-related deaths in women. Nuclear receptors (NR) and their regulators are well known for their role in breast cancer. Especially ligands for the type I NRs, Estrogen Receptor (ER) and Progesterone Receptor have growth promoting effects in breast cancer cells. The NR coregulator DC-SCRIPT (ZNF366) has been found to be a strong and independent prognostic marker in ER positive (ESR1) breast cancer patients. DC-SCRIPT modulates the function of multiple NRs and has opposing effects on type I versus type II NRs. It represses the function of the growth promoting type I NRs, whereas it enhances the mainly anti-proliferative type II NRs. In this study we aimed to gain further insight into the functional role of DC-SCRIPT in breast cancer cells. Therefore, the effect of DC-SCRIPT expression on breast cancer cell gene expression was investigated using a novel DC-SCRIPT-inducible MCF7 breast cancer cell line model. In the presence of DC-SCRIPT, multiple cell cycle related genes were differentially expressed, including the tumor suppressor gene CDKN2B. MCF7EV (empty vector control) and MCF7SC (DC-SCRIPT-inducible) breast cancer cell lines were treated with doxycyline for a total of 68h (to induce DC-SCRIPT expression in MCF7SC clones). After the first 24h, cells were serum starved for 24h to synchronize the cells. Subsequently, cells were released with 10 nM estradiol during the last 20 hours of culturing. Total RNA from two replicate experiments were obtained, and used to compare MCF7EV to MCF7SC clones.

Analysis of Mouse Dendritic and Antigen presenting cell and Mouse autoimmune and Inflammatory Response

Project description:Antigen presenting cells (APC) express receptors recognizing microbes and regulating immune responses by binding to corresponding ligands on immune cells. Having discovered a novel inhibitory pathway triggered by ligation of DC-HIL on APC to a heparin/heparan sulfate-like saccharide of syndecan-4 on activated T cells, we posited DC-HIL can recognize microbial pathogens in a similar manner. We showed soluble recombinant DC-HIL to bind the dermatophytes Trichophyton rubrum and Microsporum audouinii, but not several bacteria nor Candida albicans. Dermatophyte binding was inhibited completely by the addition of heparin. Because DC-HIL contains an immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-like intracellular sequence, we questioned whether its binding to dermatophytes can induce tyrosine phosphorylation in dendritic cells (DC). Culturing DC with T. rubrum (but not with C. albicans pseudohyphae) induced phosphorylation of DC-HIL, but not when the tyrosine residue of the ITAM-like sequence was mutated to phenylalanine. To examine the functional significance of such signaling on DC, we cross-linked DC-HIL with mAb (surrogate ligand), which not only induced tyrosine phosphorylation but also upregulated expression of 23 genes among 662 genes analyzed by gene-array, including genes for profilin-1, Marcksl-1, C/EBP, LOX-1, IL-beta and TNF-alpha. This cross-linking also upregulated expression of the activation markers CD80/CD86 and heightened APC capacity of DC to activate syngeneic T cells. Our findings support a dual role for DC-HIL; inhibition of adaptive immunity following ligation of syndecan-4 on activated T cells, and induction of innate immunity against dermatophytic fungi.

Transcriptional and functional characterization of dendritic cell differentiation induced by CD137 ligand reverse signaling in human monocytes

Project description:The contribution of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC) to an immune response is essential for the elimination of pathogens. In vitro DC can be generated by treatment of monocytes with GM-CSF + IL-4 but it is unknown what stimuli induce the differentiation of monocytes to DC in vivo. CD137L-DC are human monocyte-derived DC that are generated by CD137 ligand (CD137L) signaling. Since CD137 is only expressed at sites of inflammation it would be a suitable signal for the induction of monocyte-derived DC. Here we report on gene expression analysis of CD137L-DC, immature and mature classical DC, monocytes and macrophages which indicates that CD137L-DC have a gene signature that is most similar to that of classical DC. Additionally, CD137L-DC signature genes are highly enriched in monocyte-derived DC which were isolated from sites of inflammation. Also cell surface marker expression and cytokine secretion of CD137L-DC are highly similar to that of inflammatory monocyte-derived DC. CD137L-DC express high levels of adhesion molecules, display strong attachment and employ the adhesion molecule ALCAM to stimulate T cell proliferation. This study identifies a physiological stimulus for the generation of monocyte-derived DC in vivo. A total of 30 expression profiles were obtained, on 6 APC subtypes from 5 different donors

Cytokine-dependent dendritic cell differentiation in the splenic microenvironment

Project description:The dendritic cell (DC)-derived chemokine CCL17, a ligand of CCR4, has been shown to promote various inflammatory diseases such as atopic dermatitis, atherosclerosis, and inflammatory bowel disease. Under steady state conditions, and even after systemic stimulation with lipopolysaccharide, CCL17 is not expressed in resident splenic DC as opposed to CD8-CD11b+ lymph node (LN) DC, which produce large amounts of CCL17, in particular after maturation. Upon systemic NKT cell activation through alpha-galactosylceramide stimulation, however, CCL17 can be upregulated in both CD8- and CD8+ splenic DC subsets and enhances cross-presentation of exogenous antigens. Based on genome wide expression profiling, we now show that splenic DC are susceptible to Interferon-gamma (IFNgamma) mediated suppression of CCL17, whereas LN DC are much less responsive to IFNgamma and downregulate the IFNgamma receptor. Under inflammatory conditions, particularly in the absence of IFNgamma signaling in IFNgamma receptor deficient mice, CCL17 expression is strongly induced in a major proportion of splenic DC by the action of granulocyte-macrophage colony stimulating factor (GM-CSF) in concert with interleukin (IL)-4. Our findings demonstrate that the local cytokine milieu and differential cytokine responsiveness of DC subsets regulate lymphoid organ specific immune responses at the level of chemokine expression. 15 h after pretreatment with 100 µg LPS, spleens and LN (MLN and PLN) from CCL17E/+ mice were harvested and DC-enriched cell suspensions of the respective organs were stained for NK1.1, CD8alpha, CD11c and CD11b. For isolation of LN DC, NK1.1-CD8alpha-CD11c+CD11b+ cells expressing CCL17/EGFP were sorted (FACSAria). Splenic DC were sorted in parallel from the same mice, but only CCL17/EGFP-negative cells expressing the same markers were selected. After the sort, cells were immediately lysed in Trizol (Invitrogen) before storage at -80°C for RNA isolation.
