The dendritic cells (DC) play crucial role in initiation and modulation of immune response especially innate immune response. We investigated the influence bacterial (E. coli and S. epidermidis) and allogeneic antigens (heart, skin and bone marrow transplants) on splenic DC- enriched population. We found that 1) the in culture stimulation of rat splenic DC-enriched population by E. coli, S.epidermidis, LPS and CpG DNA caused increase in class II-positive cells. Simultaneously, a decrease in percentage of EDI, B cells and OX62 migrating DC upon treatment with S.epidermidis was observed. LPS caused decreased frequency of OX62 and NK cells. 2) Similarly to the in vitro the in vivo stimulation by E. coli, S.epidermidis, LPS and CpG DNA increased the percentage of class II-positive cells. There was a decrease in the ED1, OX62 and B cell populations following stimulation by S. epidermidis. 3) Mixed DC-enriched population and donor PBM culture showed high level of response in both populations. 4) Syngeneic and allogeneic transplants of heart, skin and BMC caused increase in class II-positive cells. Moreover, there was an increase in frequency of the ED1 and W3/13 populations after both syn- and allogeneic transplantation. The OX62 cells did not react, whereas the B cell frequency rose only after allogeneic transplantation. A significant decrease in NK cell population was noticed. 5) The in vitro and in vivo bacterial stimulation brought about expression of TLR receptors and Hsp. Mixed recipient DC with donor PBM culture caused expression of Hsp 90 but not TLRs. Allogeneic stimulation by transplanted tissues did not evoke expression of the investigated receptors and proteins. 6) Recipient DC-enriched population produced IFN gamma upon stimulation with bacteria and skin but not heart and BMC. Further studies on simultaneous stimulation of splenic DCs by bacterial and allo-antigens will throw light on additive effects of bacterial activation in allograft rejection.

Chagas disease (Cd) or American human trypanosomiasis is caused by and affects ~7 million people, mostly in Latin America. The infective trypomastigote forms of the parasite can invade several human blood cell populations, including monocytes and dendritic cells (DC). Although these cells display a wide functional diversity, their interactions with via cyclooxygenase (COX) and cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) dependent pathways have not been analyzed.

The anti-tumor vaccination is burdened by low recruitment rate of intravenously administered in vitro primed DC in liver metastases and lack of supplying them continuously in large numbers. Therefore, it seemed rational to create a model of in vivo vaccination with specifically primed splenic DC and cytotoxic T lymphocytes being continuously supplied to the liver vascular bed. The question we raised was whether anti-tumor immunized splenic DC flowing to liver metastases could adhere to and be cytotoxic to tumor cells.

Renal ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) rapidly induces production of inflammatory mediators including, and in particular, tumor necrosis factor (TNF). Possible sources include resident parenchymal and bone marrow-derived cells as well as recruited leukocytes. Cell suspensions from kidneys subjected to IRI were examined by cell separation followed by in vitro culture and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), immunoperoxidase and immunofluorescence microscopy, and multicolor flow cytometry to determine the contribution of dendritic cells (DCs) to early production of TNF and other inflammatory mediators.

Allograft ischemia and cellular degradation accompanying rejection favor graft colonization by translocated microorganisms. Bacterial colonization adds to the graft destruction. The dendritic cells (DC) of allograft recipients engage in allogeneic and antibacterial reactions; they process and present to lymphocytes 2 types of antigens.
