Heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) is an intracellular enzyme that degrades heme and inhibits immune responses and inflammation in vivo. In most cell types, HO-1 is inducible by inflammatory stimuli and oxidative stress. Here we demonstrate that human monocyte-derived immature DCs (iDCs) and several but not all freshly isolated rat splenic DC subsets and rat bone marrow-derived iDCs, spontaneously express HO-1. HO-1 expression drastically decreases during human and rat DC maturation induced in vitro. In human tissues, iDCs also express HO-1 whereas mature DCs do not. Induction of HO-1 expression with cobalt protoporphyrin (CoPP) in human and rat DCs inhibits LPS-induced phenotypic maturation and secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines, resulting in the inhibition of alloreactive T cell proliferation. CoPP-treated DCs, however, retain the ability to produce the anti-inflammatory cytokine IL-10. Reactive oxygen species induced by LPS in DCs were inhibited by induction of HO-1.
In conclusion, we identify for the first time, the capacity of HO-1 to block maturation of DCs and to inhibit pro-inflammatory and allogeneic immune responses while preserving IL-10 production. This novel immune function for HO-1 may be of interest for the inhibition of immune responses in autoimmune diseases, transplantation, and other conditions involving activation of the immune system.
