Popis: | Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tDCs) represent a promising tool for cellular therapy against autoimmune diseases, allergies, and transplantation rejection. Numerous pharmacological agents are known to induce tDC generation. Minocycline, which has long been used as a broad-spectrum antibiotic, was recently shown to significantly increase the generation of DCs with regulatory properties. Here, we examined the effect of the combination of minocycline with dexamethasone, rapamycin, vitamin D3, and interleukin (IL)-10, which are all known inducers of tDC generation. The highest number of tDCs was generated when minocycline and dexamethasone were used together with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GM-SCF) and IL-4. The tolerogenicity of the minocycline/dexamethasone-conditioned tDCs was much better than or at least equal to those of the tDCs generated with either one of these agents, as assessed through in vitro phenotypic and functional assays. In addition, pretreatment with MOG35-55 peptide-pulsed minocycline/dexamethasone-conditioned tDCs significantly ameliorated the clinical signs of experimental autoimmune encephalitis induced by MOG peptide injection in a murine model. These results confirmed that tDCs with potent tolerogenic properties could be efficiently generated by the combined use of minocycline and dexamethasone, along with GM-CSF and IL-4. Our results would help in the development of ex vivo tDC-based immunotherapies. |
