Immunomodulation contributes to the antitumor efficacy of the fractionated radiation therapy (RT). Here, we describe immune effects of RT with concurrent systemic cisplatin or cetuximab treatment of patients with stage III-IV head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Using longitudinally collected blood samples, we identified significant changes in cytokines/chemokines and immune cell popu...
Activation of vitamin D receptor (VDR) by 1,25-dihydroxyvitamin D(3) (1,25-vitD) reprograms dendritic cells (DC) to become tolerogenic. Previous studies suggested that 1,25-vitD could inhibit the changes brought about by differentiation and maturation of DCs. Underpinning the described phenotypic and functional alterations, there must be 1,25-vitD-coordinated transcriptional events. However, th...
Although much is known about the transcriptional profiles of dendritic cells (DCs) during maturation, the molecular switches critical for the induction of a tolerogenic program in DC subsets are still obscure. We examined the gene-expression profiles of murine splenic CD8+ DCs rendered highly tolerogenic by interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), which activates the enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (ID...
Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tDCs) may offer an intervention therapy in autoimmune diseases or transplantation. Stable immaturity and tolerogenic function of tDCs after encountering inflammatory environment are prerequisite for positive outcome of immunotherapy. However, the signaling pathways regulating their stable tolerogenic properties are largely unknown. In this study, we demonstrated tha...
HLA-G is a non-classical major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigen with highly limited tissue distribution under non-pathological conditions. Although capable of acting as a peptide-presenting molecule, its strong immune-inhibitory properties identify HLA-G as a mediator of immune tolerance with specific relevance at immune-privileged sites such as trophoblast or thymus. To assess ...
The mechanisms that underlie the critical dendritic cell (DC) function in maintainance of peripheral immune tolerance are incompletely understood, although the β-catenin signaling pathway is critical for this role. The molecular details by which β-catenin signaling is regulated in DCs are unknown. Mechanical disruption of murine bone marrow-derived DC (BMDC) clusters activates DCs while maintai...
Despite accumulating evidence for the importance of allospecific CD8(+) regulatory T cells (Tregs) in tolerant rodents and free immunosuppression transplant recipients, mechanisms underlying CD8(+) Treg-mediated tolerance remain unclear. By using a model of transplantation tolerance mediated by CD8(+) Tregs following CD40Ig treatment in rats, in this study, we show that the accumulation of tole...
Genetically modified B cells are excellent tolerogenic antigen-presenting cells (APCs) in multiple models of autoimmunity. However, the mechanisms of action are still not completely understood. In our models, we generate antigen-specific tolerogenic B cells by transducing naïve or primed B cells with an antigen-immunoglobulin G (peptide-IgG) construct. In order to be transduced, B cells require...
Tolerogenic dendritic cells (DCs) are a promising tool for a specific form of cellular therapy whereby immunological tolerance can be induced in the context of transplantation and autoimmunity. From libraries of bioactive lipids, nuclear receptor ligands, and kinase inhibitors, we screened conventional protein kinase C inhibitors (PKCIs) bisindolylmaleimide I, Gö6983, and Ro32-0432 with strong ...
