Dendritic cells (DCs) may arise from multiple lineages and progress
through a series of intermediate stages until fully mature, at which
time they are capable of optimal antigen presentation and T-cell
activation. High cell surface expression of CD83 is presumed to
correlate with full maturation of DCs, and a number of agents have been
shown to increase CD83 expression on DCs. We hypothesized that
interleukin 12 (IL-12) expression would be a more accurate marker of
functionally mature DCs capable of activating antigen-specific T cells.
We used combinations of signaling through CD40, using CD40 ligand
trimer (CD40L), and interferon gamma to demonstrate that CD83
expression is necessary but not sufficient for optimal production of
IL-12 by DCs. Phenotypically mature DCs could be induced to produce
high levels of IL-12 p70 only when provided 2 simultaneous stimulatory
signals. By intracellular cytokine detection, we determined that only a
subset of cells that express high levels of CD80 and CD83 generate
large amounts of IL-12. DCs matured with both signals are superior to
DCs stimulated with the individual agents in activating
antigen-specific T cell in vitro. These findings have important
implications regarding the identification, characterization, and
clinical application of functionally mature DCs.
