View SamplesInterleukin-2 (IL-2) is one of the molecules produced by mouse dendritic cells (DCs) after stimulation by Toll like receptor (TLR) agonists. By analogy with the events following T-cell receptor (TCR) engagement leading to IL-2 production we have observed that DC stimulation with lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induces Src-family kinase and phospholipase C (PLC)2 activation, influx of extracellular Ca2+ and calcineurin-dependent nuclear NFAT translocation. We have also observed that the initiation of this pathway is independent of TLR4 engagement, and dependent exclusively on CD14. To determine the role of NFAT in LPS activated dendritic cells we have performed microarray analysis in conditions allowing or inhibiting NFAT activation. We show here that LPS-induced NFAT activation via CD14 is necessary to cause death of terminally differentiated DCs, an event that is essential for maintaining self-tolerance and preventing autoimmunity. Consequently, blocking this pathway in vivo causes prolonged DC survival and an increase in T cell priming capability.

View SamplesTolerogenic dendritic cells (DCs) induce regulatory T-cells and dampen pathogenic T-cell responses. Hereby, they have gained interest as a therapeutic target in the combat against autoimmune diseases. In this study we investigated whether tolerogenic DCs are induced by the phytonutrient carvacrol, a molecule with known anti-inflammatory properties. In this study, bone marrow derived DCs were treated with carvacrol in combination with thermal stress. Gene expression profiles were obtained by microarray analysis to test for an induced tolerogenic phenotype. To investigate the tolerogenic properties of treated DCs in vivo, T-cell anergy or the induction of a regulatory T-cell phenotype was studied in antigen specific T-cells. Finally, treated DCs were tested by transfer into an experimental arthritis model.
