The developmental origin of dendritic cells (DC) is controversial. In the mouse CD8 + and CD8 - DC subsets are often considered to be of lymphoid and myeloid origin respectively, although evidence on this point is conflicting. Very recently a novel CD11c+ B220+ DC subset has been identified that appears to be the murine counterpart to IFN -producing human plasmacytoid DC (PDC). We show here that CD11c+ B220+ mouse PDC, like human PDC, are present in the thymus and express T lineage markers such as CD8 and CD4. However the intrathymic development of PDC can be completely dissociated from immature T lineage cells in mixed chimeras established with bone marrow cells from mice deficient for either Notch1 or T cell factor 1, two independent mutations that severely block early T cell development. Our data indicate that thymic PDC do not arise from a bipotential T/DC precursor.
