Phenotypic and Functional Comparison between Flask Adherent and Magnetic Activated Cell Sorted Monocytes Derived Dendritic Cells
Background: Generation of an effective dendritic cell (DC) based cancer vaccine depends on appropriate differentiation of monocytes in vitro. Objective: To compare the effects of monocyte separation methods, flask adherence (Flask-DC) and magnetic activated cell sorting (MACS-DC), on phenotypic and functional characteristics of resultant DCs. Methods: DCs from healthy volunteers were generated ...
متن کاملIn Vivo Effects of Calcitriol on Phenotypic and Functional Properties of Dendritic Cells
Background: Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in the initiation and expansion of T cell mediated immune responses with potential immunotherapy application. The compounds which have the ability to induce immunomodulatory effects on DCs may be employed for the treatment of immunopathologic conditions such as autoimmune diseases. Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the in v...
متن کامل1,25-Dihydroxyvitamin D3 promotes tolerogenic dendritic cells with functional migratory properties in NOD mice.
The biologically active form of vitamin D, 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 [1,25(OH)2D3], is able to promote the generation of tolerogenic mature dendritic cells (mDCs) with an impaired ability to activate autoreactive T cells. These cells could represent a reliable tool for the promotion or restoration of Ag-specific tolerance through vaccination strategies, for example in type 1 diabetes patients. H...
متن کاملDendritic cells: phenotypic and functional heterogeneity.
Dendritic cells are specialized to capture antigens, process them and present them to T cells to initiate, regulate and fine tune immune responses towards pathogens and tumours. The story of these cells began more than forty years ago and the interest for them is ever growing because of their central role in immunobiology. Dendritic cells are heterogeneous for origin, anatomical localization, p...
متن کاملModified myeloid dendritic cells act as regulatory dendritic cells to induce anergic and regulatory T cells.
To exploit a novel strategy to regulate T cell-mediated immunity, we established human and murine modified dendritic cells (DCs) with potent immunoregulatory properties (designed as regulatory DCs), which displayed moderately high expression levels of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules and extremely low levels of costimulatory molecules compared with their normal counterparts. Unl...
