BRIEF REPORT
Maturation of dendritic cells leads to up-regulation of

Dendritic cells (DCs) disappear from lymph nodes 1 to 2 days after
antigen presentation, presumably by apoptosis. To evaluate the role of
death ligands in elimination of DCs, we analyzed the sensitivity of
human DCs to CD95 ligand (CD95L) and tumor necrosis factor-related
apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL). We found mature DCs to be resistant
to killing via CD95L or TRAIL, whereas only immature DCs were partially
sensitive. However, all DC populations expressed CD95, TRAIL-R2, and
TRAIL-R3 at comparable levels, suggesting that sensitivity to death
ligand-induced DC apoptosis is not regulated at the receptor level.
Interestingly, mature DCs highly expressed the caspase 8 inhibitory
protein cFLIP, whereas only low levels were detected in immature DCs.
Thus, death ligand sensitivity proved to be dependent on DC maturation
and inversely correlated with expression levels of cFLIP. Induction of
apoptosis by TRAIL or CD95L does not seem to play a role in the
elimination of mature DCs, but instead might serve to regulate immature
DC populations.
