Abstract:
Objective:To study the effects of agonistic anti gp130 monoclonal antibody B S12 on the differentiation, maturation and function of dendritic cells (DC).Methods:Monocytes isolated from human peripheral blood were cultured with GM CSF plus IL 4, and differentiated into immature DC. The phenotype of DC was analyzed by cytometry after the addition of B S12 antibody to the culture of immature DC. In addition, the abilities for DC to uptake antigen, secrete IL 12, initiate the mixed lymphocyte reaction and chemoattract T cells were tested. The effects of agonistic anti CD40 monoclonal antibody 5C11 on the differentiation, maturation and function of DC were simutaneously compared with those of B S12 antibody.Results:Agonistic anti gp130 monoclonal antibody B S12 had DC to up regulate the expression of CD1a, costimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 as well as CD83, which is special marker for mature DC, down regulate the expression of CD14. Moreover, B S12 antibody decrease the up take of antigen by DC, enhance the abilities for DC to secrete IL 12, initiate the mixed lymphocyte reaction and chemoattract T cells. The comparison of roles of B S12 and 5C11 antibodies in DC showed that 5C11 was more effective than B S12.Conclusion:The direct stimulation of gp130 on immature DC by B S12 antibody could induce immature DC to differentiate into mature DC.
