Project description:The activity of the potent nasal adjuvant flagellin depends on initial activation of airway epithelilal cells. This study aims at investigating the immune cells involved in the antigen presentation within the respiratory tract. First, microarrays characterized that activation/recruitment of immune cells was the main signature of flagellin activation in lung. Neutrophils and classical monocytes were strongly recruited into the lungs and take up antigen upon nasal administration of flagellin. In contrast, the numbers of lung CD11b+ or CD103+ DC and alveolar macrophages were not enhanced although these cells were very efficient in antigen uptake. Our experiments showed that CD11b+ DC but not monocytes, PMN, CD103+ DC are not essential for the adjuvant effect. Flagellin signaling enhanced the functional activation of lung CD11b+ conventional DC and their migration to the lymph nodes. Using Cd11c-DTR mice, CD11b+ DC from lymph nodes were identified as the major stimulators of CD4 T cell activation. Finally, the migration and maturation of mucosal DC was independent of direct signaling, highlighting the contribution of epithelial factors in the mucosal adjuvant effect of flagellin. In conclusion, these data demonstrate that adjuvant activity can be dissociated from inflammatory cell recruitment an open new perpectives for improvement of vaccines.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DCs) are major regulators of innate and adaptive immune responses. DCs can be classified into plasmacytoid DCs and conventional DCs (cDCs) type 1 and 2. Murine and human cDC1 share the mRNA expression of XCR1. Murine studies indicated a specific role of the XCR1-XCL1 axis in the induction of immune responses. Here, we describe that human cDC1 can be distinguished into XCR1- and XCR1+ cDC1 in lymphoid as well as non-lymphoid tissues. Steady state XCR1+ cDC1 display a pre-activated phenotype compared to XCR1- cDC1. Upon stimulation, XCR1+ cDC1, but not XCR1- cDC1, secreted high levels of inflammatory cytokines as well as chemokines. This was associated with enhanced activation of NK cells mediated by XCR1+ cDC1. Moreover, XCR1+ cDC1 excelled in inhibiting replication of Influenza A virus. Further, under DC differentiation conditions, XCR1- cDC1 developed into XCR1+ cDC1. After acquisition of XCR1 expression, XCR1- cDC1 secreted comparable level of inflammatory cytokines. Thus, XCR1 is a marker of terminally differentiated cDC1 that licenses the antiviral effector functions of human cDC1, while XCR1- cDC1 seem to represent a late immediate precursor of cDC1.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DC) are professional antigen presenting cells that develop from multipotent progenitors (MPP) and DC committed common DC progenitors (CDP) and further differentiate into different subsets: classical DC type 1 and 2 (cDC1 and cDC2, respectively) and plasmacytoid DC (pDC). In this study MPP, CDP, cDC1, cDC2 and pDC were obtained in a two-step in vitro culture system according to Felker et al., J. Immunol. 185, 5326-5335, 2010. Briefly, mouse bone marrow cells were first amplified with a specific cytokine cocktail and then induced to differentiate into DC with Flt3 ligand. MPP, CDP, cDC1, cDC2 and pDC were obtained by FACS sorting as follows: MPP: Gr1- CD117hi CD135low/-; CDP: Gr1- CD117int CD135+ CD115+; cDC1: CD11c+ CD11blow/- XCR1+; cDC2: CD11c+ CD11b+ XCR1- and pDC: CD11c+ CD11b- B220+. FACS sorted cells were then subjected to Omni-ATAC-seq, nuclear-titrated (NuTi) Capture-C targeting Irf8 promoter, and RNA-seq analysis. ATAC-seq data of cDC1 and pDC are published (Li et al., Genome Biol. 20, 45, 2019; GSE118221). ATAC-seq data of MPP, CDP and cDC2, NuTi Capture-C and RNA-seq data of MPP, CDP, cDC1, cDC2 and pDC are published here. CD11c+ CD11b+ B220- cDC and CD11c+ CD11b- B220+ pDC were obtained by FACS sorting and subjected to ChIP-seq analysis of IRF8 and are published here.

Project description:Functional characterization of human dendritic cell subsets is limited due to the very low frequency of these cells in vivo. We developed an in vitro culture system for the simultaneous generation of XCR1+ DCs and MoDCs from cord blood CD34+ cells. Their global gene expression profiles at steady state and under activation, phenotypes, morphologies and responses to different TLR ligands where characterized and compared with those of their in vivo counterparts. The study demonstrated that the XCR1+ DCs generated in vitro from cord blood CD34+ cells are equivalent to blood XCR1+ DCs and also allowed a rigorous comparison of this DC subset with MoDC which are often considered as the reference model for DCs. Altogether, our results showed that in vitro generated XCR1+ DCs are a better model for the study of blood DC than the conventionally used MoDCs. The different dendritic cell subsets used for the study were either generated in vitro from cord blood CD34+ cells with recombinant human cytokines or isolated from peripheral blood. The subsets were purified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting and their responses to PolyI:C, LPS or R848 were studied including by gene expression profiling.

Project description:Dendritic cells (DC) play critical roles in central and peripheral T cell tolerance. DC found in the steady-state periphery undergo an homeostatic, tolerogenic, maturation that promotes interaction with naive T cells and induction of abortive responses. In contrast, thymic DC are thought to exist solely in an immature state. In this study, we show that XCR1+ thymic DC constitutively mature into a stage characterized by high levels of molecules involved in T cell activation. This unanticipated mature stage corresponded to a third of the XCR1+ thymic DC and fully accounted for their ability to cross-present self-antigens to developing T cells. Transcriptomic analysis of the XCR1+ DC found in thymus and steady-state periphery revealed that their maturation involves profound and convergent changes. Unexpectedly, maturation resulted in down-regulation of genes conferring their specific function on XCR1+ DC. Paradoxically, upon maturation, central and peripheral tolerogenic XCR1+ DC up-regulated many genes thought to drive pro-inflammatory T-cell responses. Thus, our results reveal that thymic XCR1+ DC undergo constitutive maturation and emphasize the common mechanisms operating for both central and peripheral tolerance induction by XCR1+ DC. DC were isolated from lymphoid organs as previously described (Vremec et al., 2000). DC subsets were sorted by flow cytometry according to the marker combinations described in the âcharacteristics: phenotypeâ field for each sample.

Project description:XCR1+ dendritic cells (DC) have been shown to excel in antigen cross-presentation for the activation of naïve CD8 T cells. This property was reported to be associated to the subset of the XCR1+ DC expressing IL-12b upon ex vivo stimulation for 24 h with a mixture of CpG, IFN-γ, and GM-CSF (Lin ML et al. Proc Natl Acad Sci USA. 2008. PMID: 18272486). DC found in the steady-state non-lymphoid tissues undergo an homeostatic, tolerogenic, maturation and migrate to the draining lymph nodes to interact with naive autoreactive T cells and induction their peripheral tolerance. In contrast, spleen DC are thought to exist solely in an immature state. The aim of this study was to re-examine heterogeneity within steady state spleen XCR1+ DC, in particular examining whether this population encompass a fraction of mature DCs as assessed through their expression of CCR7 and/or the Il12b gene. Indeed, we show that a small fraction of XCR1+ spleen DC constitutively mature into two distinct but likely successive activation stages characterized as CCR7+ and CCR7+Il12b+ respectively, and correlated with increasing ability to cross-present antigen to naïve CD8 T cells. Transcriptomic analysis of the subsets of XCR1+ DC found in steady state spleen unexpectedly showed that their homeostatic maturation was unexpectedly associated with up-regulated of many genes thought to drive pro-inflammatory T-cell responses and previously found to be commonly induced upon maturation of distinct DC subsets in response to stimulation by various microbial-type stimuli (Vu Manh TP et al. Eur J Immunol. 2013. PMID: 23553052). Thus, our results reveal that spleen XCR1+ DC undergo constitutive maturation and emphasize the common mechanisms operating upon homeostatic, tolerogenic, DC maturation versus microbial-type stimuli-induced, immunogenic, DC maturation. DC were isolated from the spleen of untreated Il12b-EYFP reporter mice (Reinhardt RL et al. J Immunol. 2006. PMID:16849470) mice as previously described (Robbins SH et al. Genome Biol. 2008. PMID: 18218067; Baranek T et al. Cell Host Microbe. 2012. PMID: 23084923). DC subsets were sorted by flow cytometry according to the marker combinations described in the âcharacteristics: phenotypeâ field for each sample.
