In an attempt to transduce monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs) by
a retroviral vector coding for a cell surface marker, we were
confronted by the observation of high transfer of the surface molecule
in the absence of vector proviral DNA in the treated cells. Indeed, DCs
acquired the surface marker by a mechanism independent of the vector
machinery, requiring cell-to-cell contact and involving transfer of
lipids and a variety of intact membrane proteins. Most important, this
property of DCs also includes acquisition of foreign human leukocyte
antigen (HLA) molecules. Consequently, DCs become immunological hybrids
as they display their own and foreign HLA molecules. The newly acquired
HLA is fully functional because it allows recognition by allo-specific
T lymphocytes and the binding and presentation of antigen peptides.
