چکیده

Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in determining the induction of T cell responses. IL-27 production by DCs favors induction of IL-10-producing regulatory T cells, whereas osteopontin (OPN) promotes pathogenic IL-17 T cell responses. The regulatory mechanisms in DCs that control these two cells types are not understood well. Here, we show that IFN-gamma induces IL-27 while inhibiting OPN expression in DCs both in vitro and in vivo and that engagement of IFN-gammaR expressed by DCs leads to suppression of IL-17 production while inducing IL-10 from T cells. DCs modified by IFN-gamma acquire IL-27-dependent regulatory function, promote IL-10-mediated T cell tolerance, and suppress autoimmune inflammation. Thus, our results identify a previously unknown pathway by which IFN-gamma limits IL-17-mediated autoimmune inflammation through differential regulation of OPN and IL-27 expression in DCs.

IFN-γ limits Th9-mediated autoimmune inflammation through dendritic cell modulation of IL-27.

IL-9-producing Th9 cells have been associated with autoimmune diseases, such as experimental autoimmune encephalitis. However, the factors that negatively regulate Th9 cells during autoimmune inflammation are unclear. In this article, we show that IFN-γ inhibits Th9 differentiation both in vitro and in vivo. This suppressive activity was dependent on the transcription factor STAT-1. In addition...

NK-DC crosstalk controls the autopathogenic Th17 response through an innate IFN-γ–IL-27 axis

IFN-γ is a pathogenic cytokine involved in inflammation. Paradoxically, its deficiency exacerbates experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis, uveitis, and arthritis. Here, we demonstrate using IFN-γ(-/-) mice repleted with IFN-γ +/+: NK cells that innate production of IFN-γ from NK cells is necessary and sufficient to trigger an endogenous regulatory circuit that limits autoimmunity. After immu...

Background and Objectives: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is an autoimmune neurodegenerative disease of the central nervous system (CNS). Although, the contribution of various cells such as  B cells, CD8+ T cells, microglia/macrophages, dendritic cells, asterocytes and mast cells in the pathogenesis of MS have been demonstrated, however, it seems that autoreactive myelin specific CD4+ T cells pla...

    Background & Aims: Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune condition associated with the T-cell–mediated destruction of Pancreatic β cells. Vitamin A (retinol) and its metabolites (such as all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA)) have a variety of biological activities including immunomodulatory action in a number of inflammatory and autoimmune conditions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the e...
