Abstrakt: The effect of Bothrops atrox venom (BaV) on the maturation of bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) from mice was investigated, with a focus on selected cell markers, TAP1 expression, and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines during this process. The objective was to evaluate BaV's impact on dendritic cell (DC) function, as DCs are pivotal in antigen presentation and responsible for initiating the immune response mediated by naïve T cells, as well as regulating the immune system. Bone marrow cells were obtained from Swiss mice, and hematopoietic precursors were differentiated into BMDCs using GM-CSF and IL-4. On the 7th day, BaV and LPS were introduced into the culture, and the cells were analyzed 24 h later. BaV's ability to stimulate BMDC maturation was assessed through the analysis of surface marker expression. The findings demonstrated that BMDCs are highly influenced by culture environment factors, such as GM-CSF and IL-4, and are sensitive to additional stimuli like LPS and BaV. Mature DCs exhibited elevated levels of critical markers for T cell activation, such as MHC-II, CD80, and CD86, displaying specific phenotypic characteristics. However, the observed reduction in MHC-II and CD86 expression following BaV exposure suggests a substantial impact on the immunological activation capacity of these cells, potentially interfering with the adaptive immune response. Furthermore, the selective release of cytokines, such as IL-6, but not TNF-α or IL-1β, indicates differentiated modulation of inflammatory responses by DCs under various stimulation conditions.
