To better characterize human dendritic cells (DCs) that originate
from lymphoid progenitors, the authors examined the DC differentiation pathways from a novel CD7+CD45RA+ progenitor
population found among cord blood CD34+ cells. Unlike
CD7 CD45RA+ and
CD7+CD45RA progenitors, this population
displayed high natural killer (NK) cell differentiation capacity when
cultured with stem cell factor (SCF), interleukin (IL)-2, IL-7, and
IL-15, attesting to its lymphoid potential. In cultures with SCF, Flt3
ligand (FL), granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF),
and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)- (standard condition),
CD7+CD45RA+ progenitors expanded less (37- vs
155-fold) but yielded 2-fold higher CD1a+ DC percentages
than CD7 CD45RA+ or
CD7+CD45RA progenitors. As reported for
CD34+CD1a thymocytes, cloning experiments
demonstrated that CD7+CD45RA+ cells comprised
bipotent NK/DC progenitors. DCs differentiated from
CD7 CD45RA+ and
CD7+CD45RA+ progenitors differed as to
E-cadherin CD123, CD116, and CD127 expression, but none of these was
really discriminant. Only CD7+CD45RA+ or thymic
progenitors differentiated into Lag+S100+
Langerhans cells in the absence of exogenous transforming growth factor
(TGF)- 1. Analysis of the DC differentiation pathways showed that
CD7+CD45RA+ progenitors generated
CD1a+CD14 precursors that were
macrophage-colony stimulating factor (M-CSF) resistant and
CD1a CD14+ precursors that readily
differentiated into DCs under the standard condition. Accordingly,
CD7+CD45RA+ progenitor-derived mature DCs
produced 2- to 4-fold more IL-6, IL-12, and TNF- on CD40 ligation
and elicited 3- to 6-fold higher allogeneic T-lymphocyte reactivity
than CD7 CD45RA+ progenitor-derived DCs.
Altogether, these findings provide evidence that the DCs that
differentiate from cord blood
CD34+CD7+CD45RA+ progenitors
represent an original population for their developmental pathways and function.
