Surfactin induces maturation of dendritic cells in vitro
نویسندگان
چکیده
Surfactin has multiple immune activities, such as triggering immune-related defense responses and enhancing humoral and cellular immune responses. While, the mechanisms are still unclear. The maturation of dendritic cells (DCs) is essential for inducing downstream immune response. To shed light on the mechanisms of surfactin-induced immune activities, we verified the influences of surfactin on DCs maturation. The results showed that after stimulated with 20 μg/ml surfactin for 24 h, DCs were conferred morphologic and phenotypic characteristics of a mature state, showing an increased shape index and up-regulated expressions of MHCII and CD40. Moreover, surfactin also induced DCs to release IL-6 and TNF-α, indicating that DCs were functionally mature. In addition, the IκB-α level in surfactin-treated DCs was significantly reduced while the nuclear p65 level was notably increased, preliminarily indicating that nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-κB) signaling pathway might play an important role in surfactin-induced DCs maturation.

Introduction: Dendritic cells have a high potential in presentation of antigens and can be generated and manipulated in invitro culture conditions. Dendritic cells(DC) are therefore used in cancer immunotherapy, in prevention of graft rejection, treatment of allergy, autoimmune diseases and certain infectious diseases. Methods: Dendritic cell was generated in two stages. IN the first stage, m...

Optimized Mouse BMDC Isolation and Culture under Endotoxin-Free Conditions
Introduction: Dendritic cells are very important in basic studies and vaccine research, but isolation and culture of these cells face challenges due to their small number in tissues. Since there is no standard method, we addressed some of the factors affecting the efficiency of dendritic cell isolation and culture from BALB/c mouse bone marrow. Materials & Methods: Bone marrow cells isolated...
