Abstract:
Objective To investigate the change of surface molecules and cytokine expressions of dendritic cells (DC) stimulated with recombinant proteins Com1 and heat shock protein B (HspB) of Coxiella burnetii (Cb).MethodsThe DC cultured for 5 d were stimulated with 20 μg/mL recombinant protein Com1,20μg/mL HspB or 6 μg/mL E.coli lipopolysaccharide (LPS).Twentyfour hours later,the surface mature marker,CD83,and activation-associated markers of T lymphocytes,CD58,CD54,CD40,CD80 and CD86,and expression levels of interleukin (IL)-10 and IL-12 of DC were detected by fluorescence activated cell sorter (FACS).Multiple comparisons were performed by using Student-Newman-Keuls test.ResultsCom1 could induce DC maturation efficiently in vitro.Human monocyte-derived DC exhibited significantly higher expression levels of surface molecules including CD83,CD54,CD58,CD80,CD86,and CD40,which were all ＞80％.CD83 expression induced by Com1 was similar with that induced by 1E.coli LPS,while CD54 and CD86 expressions were slightly higher than those induced by E.coli LPS,and expressions of other molecules were significantly higher than those induced by E.coli LPS (all P＜0.05).After Com1 stimulation,intracellular IL-12 level increased to 9 ％ from zero.HspB could not induce DC maturation in vitro.The intracellular IL-10 level was 6％ after HspB stimulation.DC pulsed with Com1 and HspB exhibited intracellular IL-12 level of zero and IL-10 level of ＜2％.Conclusion Com1 but not HspB can efficiently activate DC and Com1-activated DC can drive T cells toward Th1 cell development due to a high level of IL-12 production.
