Popis: Understanding how nanoparticles may affect immune responses is an essential prerequisite to developing novel clinical applications. To investigate nanoparticle dependent outcomes on immune responses dendritic cells (DCs) were treated with model biomedical poly(vinylalcohol) coated super paramagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (PVA SPIONs). PVA SPIONs uptake by human monocyte derived DCs (MDDCs) was analyzed by flow cytometry (FACS) and advanced imaging techniques. Viability activation function and stimulatory capacity of MDDCs were assessed by FACS and an in vitro CD4 + T cell assay. PVA SPION uptake was dose dependent decreased by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced MDDC maturation at higher particle concentrations and was inhibited by cytochalasin D pre treatment. PVA SPIONs did not alter surface marker expression (CD80 CD83 CD86 myeloid/plasmacytoid DC markers) or antigen uptake but decreased the capacity of MDDCs to process antigen stimulate CD4 + T cells and induce cytokines. The decreased antigen processing and CD4 + T cell stimulation capability of MDDCs following PVA SPION treatment suggests that MDDCs may revert to a more functionally immature state following particle exposure. {çopyright} 2011 Informa UK Ltd.
