Nt with the absence to TLR-L on the maturation cocktail [22,23]. In order to confirm these results, we analyzed the transcripts of these cytokines by real-time PCR. mRNA levels for the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-12p35 were significantly reduced in tol-DCs compared to mDCs (Figure 1C), whereas the RNA levels of IL-10 exhibited a significant six-fold increase in tol-DCs compared with mDCs, thus corroborating our results at the protein level.mDCs. In contrast, T cells exposed to control DCs proliferated and secreted IFN-c to a high degree (Figure 3A). To confirm the capacity of tol-DCs 25033180 to mitigate effector T cells, tetanus toxoid (TT)-specific T cell lines were re-stimulated with TT loaded or control (non-loaded) mDCs. Whereas T cells primarily exposed to mDCs vigorously responded to TT, as measured by T-cell proliferation and IFN-c production (Figure 3B), those exposed to tol-DCs showed a significantly reduced proliferation and an absolute inability to induce IFN-c during a secondary response to TT-loaded DCs.Eltrombopag (Olamine) web Tolerogenic DCs are Stable and Resistant to Further StimulationTo address the stability of tol-DCs, dexamethasone and cytokines were carefully washed away and the DCs were restimulated with secondary maturation stimulus. Tol-DCs were refractory to further stimulation with LPS (Figure 4A, data from n = 6 independent experiments) and CD40L (n = 4), maintaining a stable semi-mature phenotype. Interestingly, tol-DCs retained their ability to further produce high levels of IL-10, but failed to generate IL-12 or IL-23 following stimulation with LPS (Figure 4B) data not included for negative IL-12 and IL-23), we did not detect any cytokine after CD40L stimulation. Furthermore, tol-DCs re-challenged with LPS or CD40L were unable to induce a proliferative T-cell response (Figure 4C). In addition, the lower levels of IFN-c cytokine secretion by T cells stimulated with LPS-treated tol-DCs compared with mDCs (mean 633261514 vs 17006700 pg/ml p = 0.07) suggest inhibition of the Th1-type response (Figure 4C).Tolerogenic Response of Dexamethasone-conditioned DCs to Gram-negative BacteriaWhole microorganisms contain multiple PAMPs capable of stimulating DCs by different pathways. This capacity exemplifies a more physiological setting, versus the use of restricted TLR agonists or exogenous recombinant cytokines. 23727046 DCs were incubated with Gram-negative heat-inactivated Escherichia coli (E. coli). Interestingly, the presence of dexamethasone during DCs differentiation profoundly influenced cell maturation, exhibiting strong inhibitory effect on their phenotype (Figure 5A) with significant reduction in CD83, CD86 and MHC class I and II expression, when compared with DCs without E. coli. Importantly, it caused a robust inhibition of pro-inflammatory cytokines (MedChemExpress MK-8742 IL-12p70, IL23 and TNF-a), increased IL-10 secretion (Figure 5B), and modified the immune response of T lymphocytes (Figure 5C) inhibiting T cell proliferation and Th1 induction. The production of IFN-c by T cells was inhibited (mean 21550611782 pg/ml vs 786966198 pg/ml; p = 0.07) when DCs were conditioned with dexamethasone previously to E. coli stimulation. We did not detect any IL-10 in the supernatant of activated T cells.Tolerogenic DCs Show Reduced T-cell Stimulatory CapacityTo determine the functional properties of clinical-grade tolDCs, we analyzed their T-cell stimulatory capacity. Tol-DCs induced a lower proliferative allo-response (mean cpm = 40.879, p,0.05) compared to mDCs (cpm = 74.65.Nt with the absence to TLR-L on the maturation cocktail [22,23].
