Antigen targeting to plasmacytoid dendritic cells via Siglec-H inhibits Th cell-dependent autoimmunity.
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) have been shown to present Ags and to contribute to peripheral immune tolerance and to Ag-specific adaptive immunity. However, modulation of adaptive immune responses by selective Ag targeting to PDCs with the aim of preventing autoimmunity has not been investigated. In the current study, we demonstrate that in vivo Ag delivery to murine PDCs via the specific...
متن کاملMHC class II–restricted antigen presentation by plasmacytoid dendritic cells inhibits T cell–mediated autoimmunity
Although plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) express major histocompatibility complex class II (MHCII) molecules, and can capture, process, and present antigens (Ags), direct demonstrations that they function as professional Ag-presenting cells (APCs) in vivo during ongoing immune responses remain lacking. We demonstrate that mice exhibiting a selective abrogation of MHCII expression by pDCs de...
متن کاملTargeting antigens through blood dendritic cell antigen 2 on plasmacytoid dendritic cells promotes immunologic tolerance.
The C-type lectin receptor blood dendritic cell Ag 2 (BDCA2) is expressed exclusively on human plasmacytoid DCs (pDCs) and plays a role in Ag capture, internalization, and presentation to T cells. We used transgenic mice that express human BDCA2 and anti-BDCA2 mAbs to deliver Ags directly to BDCA2 on pDCs in vivo. Targeting Ag to pDCs in this manner resulted in significant suppression of Ag-spe...
متن کاملCilostazol inhibits plasmacytoid dendritic cell activation and antigen presentation.
BACKGROUND Cilostazol, an anti-platelet drug for treating coronary heart disease, has been reported to modulate immune cell functions. Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) have been found to participate in the progression of atherosclerosis mainly through interferon α (IFN-α) production. Whether cilostazol influences pDCs activation is still not clear. In this study, we aimed to investigate the ...
