Isolation of human blood dendritic cells using the CMRF-44 monoclonal antibody: implications for studies on antigen-presenting cell function and immunotherapy

DB Fearnley, AD McLellan, SI Mannering, BD Hock and DN Hart

Haematology/Immunology Research Group, Christchurch Hospital, New Zealand.

Dendritic cells (DC) are potent antigen-presenting cells (APC) with the capacity to stimulate a primary T lymphocyte immune response and are therefore of interest for potential immunotherapeutic applications. Freshly isolated DC or DC precursors may be preferable for studies of antigen uptake and the potential control of APC costimulator activity. In this report, we report that the monoclonal antibody CMRF-44 can be used to detect early DC differentiation. The majority of DC circulating in blood do not express any known DC lineage specific markers, but can be identified by CMRF-44 labeling after a brief period of in vitro culture. The sequential acquisition of DC activation antigens allows the identification of two stages of DC maturation/activation. Cytokines, especially granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)alpha, enhance both phases of this process, whereas CD40-ligand trimer preferentially enhances the final DC maturation to a fully mature, activated phenotype. DC positively selected using CMRF-44 possess potent allostimulatory activity and are efficient at the uptake, processing, and presentation of soluble antigens for both primary and secondary immune responses. CMRF-44+ DC are also more potent than other APC types at restimulation of a chronic myeloid leukemia peptide specific T-cell clone. The use of a purified population of freshly isolated DC may be advantageous in attempts to initiate, maintain, and direct immune responses for immunotherapeutic applications.
