چکیده

Exposure to p-phenylenediamine (pPD), a primary intermediate in hair dye formulations, is often associated with the development of allergic contact dermatitis. Such reactions involve activation of the subject's immune system. The aim of these studies was to explore the relationship between pPD oxidation and functional maturation of human monocyte-derived dendritic cells in vitro. Dendritic cells were incubated with pPD and Bandrowski's base (BB) for 16 h, and expression of the costimulatory receptors CD40, CD80, CD83, CD86, and major histocompatibility complex class II intracellular glutathione levels and cell viability were measured. In certain experiments, glutathione (1 mM) was added to culture medium. Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) analysis and exhaustive solvent extraction were used to monitor the rate of [(14)C]pPD oxidation and the extent of pPD binding to cellular and serum protein, respectively. Proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes was determined by incorporation of [(3)H]thymidine. Exposure of dendritic cells to pPD (5-50 microM), but not BB, was associated with an increase in CD40 and MHC class II expression and proliferation of allogeneic lymphocytes. Dendritic cell activation with pPD was not associated with apoptotic or necrotic cell death or depletion of glutathione. Neither pPD nor BB altered dendritic cell expression of CD80, CD83, or CD86. LC-MS analysis revealed pPD was rapidly oxidized in cell culture media to BB. Addition of glutathione inhibited BB formation but did not prevent covalent binding of pPD to dendritic cell protein or dendritic cell activation. Collectively, these studies show that pPD, but not BB, selectively activates human dendritic cells in vitro.

Human Leukocyte Antigen-G Expression on Dendritic Cells Induced by Transforming Growth Factor-β1 and CD4+ T Cells Proliferation

Background: During antigen capture and processing, mature dendritic cells (DC) express large amounts of peptide-MHC complexes and accessory molecules on their surface. DC are antigen-presenting cells that have an important role in tolerance and autoimmunity. The transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-β1) cytokine has a regulatory role on the immune and non-immune cells. The aim of this study is ...

The role of nanoliposome bilayer composition containing soluble leishmania antigen on maturation and activation of dendritic cells

Objective(s): Dendritic cells (DCs) play a critical role in activation of T cell responses. Induction of type1 T helper (Th1) immune response is essential to generate protective immunity against cutaneous leishmaniasis. The intrinsic tendency of liposomes to have interaction with antigen-presenting cells is the main rationale to utilize liposomes as antigen carriers. In the present study, the e...

DIFFERENTIATION OF MONOCYTE DERIVED DENDRITIC CELLS IN SERUM FREE CONDITIONS

Human peripheral blood monocytes (HPBM) were cultured in the absence of human serum and were converted into a state exhibiting a high accessory function expressed by their ability of supporting lymphocyte proliferation. After a prolonged culture in serum free media the monocyte derived cells were highly viable, increased in size and developed veils and dendritiform elongatio'l1s. Paralleli...
