The demand for controlling T cell responses via dendritic cell (DC) vaccines initiated a quest for reliable and feasible DC modulatory strategies that would facilitate cytotoxicity against tumors or tolerance in autoimmunity. We studied endogenous mechanisms in developing monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs) that can induce inflammatory or suppressor programs during differentiation, and we identified a powerful autocrine pathway that, in a cell concentration–dependent manner, strongly interferes with…

Immunogenicity is preferentially induced in sparse dendritic cell cultures

Using murine bone marrow-derived DC models, it is shown that sparse cultures were essential to achieve several key functions required for immunogenic DC vaccines, including mobility to draining lymph nodes, recruitment and massive proliferation of antigen-specific CD4+ T cells, in addition to their TH1 polarization.

Dendritic Cell Response to HIV-1 Is Controlled by Differentiation Programs in the Cells and Strain-Specific Properties of the Virus

The results demonstrated that HIV-1 could not induce definite and invariable modulatory programs in DCs, and interaction with the virus triggered different responses in different DC types, suggesting the outcome of DC-HIV-1 interactions might be highly variable, shaped by endogenous features of the cells and diversity of the virus.

Human mesenchymal stromal cell-secreted lactate induces M2-macrophage differentiation by metabolic reprogramming

It is demonstrated that umbilical cord-derived MSC (UC-MSC) alter the phenotype and function of monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DC) through lactate-mediated metabolic reprogramming.

Metabolic Influences That Regulate Dendritic Cell Function in Tumors

The need for developing novel experimental approaches to assess metabolic choices in vivo, and the necessity for integrating metabolic regulation into the optimized development of DC for tumor vaccines and immunotherapy for cancer are considered.

Tumor-derived factors modulating dendritic cell function

Identification of DC-stimulating and DC-suppressing/polarizing factors in the tumor environment and the mechanism of DC modulation are important for designing effective DC-based vaccines and for recovery of immunodeficient resident DC responsible for maintenance of clinically relevant antitumor immunity in patients with cancer.

Lactate as a Regulator of Cancer Inflammation and Immunity

This review focuses on key molecular mechanisms by which lactate metabolically modulates immune cell response during tumor development and progression, which have a strong impact in the profile of tumor-infiltrating immune cells, being instrumental for immunosuppression.

Hypoxia Compromises Anti-Cancer Immune Responses.

In this minireview, immunosuppressive effects of hypoxia- and HIF-1a-driven traits in cancers are described.

Tumor-derived lactic acid modulates dendritic cell activation and antigen expression.

It is concluded that tumor-derived lactic acid is an important factor modulating the DC phenotype in the tumor environment, which may critically contribute to tumor escape mechanisms.

Toll-like receptor-induced changes in glycolytic metabolism regulate dendritic cell activation.

It is demonstrated that, in mouse DCs, TLR agonists stimulate a profound metabolic transition to aerobic glycolysis, similar to the Warburg metabolism displayed by cancer cells.

Differentiation of CD1a- and CD1a+ monocyte-derived dendritic cells is biased by lipid environment and PPARgamma.

It is suggested that the uptake of lipids results in endogenous PPARgamma agonists that induce a cascade of gene transcription coordinating lipid metabolism, the expression of lipid-presenting CD1 molecules, subtype dichotomy, and function.

Role of mitochondria and reactive oxygen species in dendritic cell differentiation and functions.

Role of the cytokine environment and cytokine receptor expression on the generation of functionally distinct dendritic cells from human monocytes

The results highlight the importance of GM‐ CSFR expression in monocytes for cytokine‐induced DC generation and point to GM‐CSF as a direct player in the generation of functionally distinct DC.

PPARγ controls CD1d expression by turning on retinoic acid synthesis in developing human dendritic cells

Data show that regulation of retinoid metabolism and signaling is part of the PPARγ-controlled transcriptional events in DCs, which allow the DCs to respond to altered lipid homeostasis by changing CD1 gene expression.

Immune Complexes Inhibit Differentiation, Maturation, and Function of Human Monocyte-Derived Dendritic Cells1

Data reveal that IC strongly affect DC differentiation and maturation, and the altered maturation of DC induced by IC may be involved in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases.

Sensing Environmental Lipids by Dendritic Cell Modulates Its Function 1

It is shown in this study that LPC affects the signaling pathway of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptors (PPARs), and intralipid may be an alternative therapeutic strategy for some chronic inflammatory diseases.

Interleukins 1β and 6 but not transforming growth factor-β are essential for the differentiation of interleukin 17–producing human T helper cells

These results identify cytokines, antigen-presenting cells and microbial products that promote the polarization of human TH-17 cells and emphasize an important difference in the requirements for the differentiation of TH- 17 cells in humans and mice.
