Abstract:
Objective:To investigate the effect of IL-34 on the phenotype of monocyte derived dendritic cells in RA,and to speculate the role of IL-34 in the differentiation of myeloid dendritic cells.Methods:The peripheral blood of RA patients was collected to harvest PBMC by Ficoll density gradient centrifugation and cultured for 4h.Adherent cells were stimulated with GM-CSF+IL-4,IL-4, IL-4+IL-34 for 3 days,and then the expression of CD83,CD86 and CD14 was tested by flow cytometry.In addition,the cells stimulated by GM-CSF and IL-4 were added by TNF-α with or without IL-34 for another four days.The expression of CD83,CD86 and/or CD14 was detected by flow cytometry.Results:(1)The expression of CD83 and CD86 on immature DC induced by IL-34+IL-4 was upregulated compared with IL-4 alone(P<0.01),but no difference of the CD14 levels between the two groups(P>0.05).The levels of CD86 and CD14 induced by IL-34+IL-4 were slightly decreased compared with GM-CSF+IL-4 stimulation(P<0.05),but no difference of CD83 expression between the two groups(P>0.05).(2)The expression of CD83 and CD86 stimulated by GM-CSF+IL-4+IL-34 was lower than the GM-CSF+IL-4+TNF-α group(P<0.05),but no difference compared with GM-CSF+IL-4 group(P>0.05). (3)The CD83 expression induced by GM-CSF+IL-4+TNF-α+IL-34 was lower than GM-CSF+IL-4+TNF-α group(P<0.05),but there was no difference of CD86 and CD14 expression between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion:IL-34 played roles in the process of immature DC differentiation,but the effect was slightly weaker than that of GM-CSF.IL-34 did not effect the phenotype change of mature DC,but involved in the maintainence of immature DC.
