Isolation and characterization of plasmacytoid dendritic cells
from Flt3 ligand and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating
factor-treated mice
Pia Björck
From the Department of Dermatology, University of
Pittsburgh, PA.
Interferon / plays an important role in the first-line
defense against viral infections and can modulate cytokine responses by
T-helper cells. Type 1 interferons (IFNs) are clinically important in
infectious diseases and in the treatment of leukemia and lymphomas. Many different cell types have the capacity to produce IFN- after encounter with virus and bacteria. The major, natural type 1 IFN-producing cell in humans was recently described as the
plasmacytoid T cell, or pDC2, and it can differentiate into dendritic
cells (DCs) on culture. This study describes the murine natural
IFN- -producing cell, or pDC2, that shares morphologic features with
its human counterpart but has some distinct phenotypical
characteristics. Murine plasmacytoid DCs can be differentially isolated
based on their expression of CD11c, B220 (CD45R), and Thy1.2 (CD90).
They lack expression of myeloid (eg, CD11b) antigens and CD8 , a
marker used to isolate lymphoid DCs. Like human pDC2, murine
plasmacytoid DCs exhibit their maximal type 1 IFN-producing capacity
at a precursor stage; pDCs isolated from bone marrow responded to viral
stimulation with higher IFN- production than cells of the same
phenotype isolated from spleen. Mobilization of mice with Flt3 ligand
(Flt3L) or Flt3L and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor, hematopoietic factors that specifically enhance DC growth, resulted in
strikingly increased numbers of pDC in bone marrow and spleen. The
isolation of this novel murine DC subset may serve as a useful tool in
the study of viral immunobiology and for the design of treatments for
murine malignancies.
