Dendritic cells play a crucial role in inducing antigen-specific immunity to pathogens. During host-parasite interaction, host immune response to the parasite molecules is considered essential for recognizing novel antigens for control strategies. Therefore, in the present study, chicken dendritic cells (DCs) (ChDCs), derived from spleens were used to evaluate their capacity to proliferate and differentiate autologous T lymphocytes in response to actin-depolymerizing factor from Eimeria tenella (EtADF). Immunoblot analysis showed that recombinant EtADF protein (rEtADF) was able to interact with rat anti-rEtADF antibodies. The immunofluorescence test confirmed rEtADF binding on ChDCs surface. Flow cytometric analysis revealed that phenotypes for MHCII, CD1.1, CD11c, CD80, and CD86 were increased in ChDCs after rEtADF treatment. qRT-PCR results indicated that ChDCs triggered TLR signaling in response to rEtADF, and suppressed Wnt signaling. Transcript levels of CD83, CCL5, and CCR7 in ChDCs were improved following rEtADF treatment. In addition, rEtADF promoted DC-directed T cell proliferation and differentiation of naïve T cells into CD3+/CD4+ T cells in DC/T cell co-incubation system. Cytokine analysis of rEtADF-pulsed ChDCs showed increased levels of IL-12 and IFN-γ, while IL-10 and TGF-β remained unchanged. Moreover, rEtADF-treated ChDCs enhanced production of IFN-γ when incubated with T cells, and IL-4 secretion remained unchanged. Our findings indicted that rEtADF could facilitate the polarization of Th1 immune cells by triggering both host DCs and T cells. Our findings provide useful insights into future work aimed at anticoccidial vaccine strategies. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
