The impact of nanoparticle ligand density on dendritic-cell targeted vaccines

Open access

Abstract

Dendritic-cell (DC) targeted antigen delivery systems hold promise for enhancing vaccine efficacy and delivery of therapeutics. However, it is not known how the number and density of targeting ligands on such systems may affect DC function and subsequent T cell response. We modified the surface of biodegradable nanoparticles loaded with antigen with different densities of the mAb to the DC lectin DEC-205 receptor and assessed changes in the cytokine response of DCs and T cells. DEC-205 targeted nanoparticles unexpectedly induced a differential cytokine response that depended on the density of ligands on the surface. Strikingly, nanoparticle surface density of DEC-205 mAb increased the amount of anti-inflammatory, IL-10, produced by DCs and T cells. Boosting mice with DEC-205 targeted OVA-nanoparticles after immunization with an antigen in CFA induced a similar pattern of IL-10 response. The correlation between DC production of IL-10 as a function of the density of anti-DEC-205 is shown to be due to cross-linking of the DEC-205 receptor. Cross-linking also increased DC expression of the scavenger receptor CD36, and blockade of CD36 largely abrogated the IL-10 response. Our studies highlight the importance of target ligand density in the design of vaccine delivery systems.

  • NPs surface modification with an antibody against the DC lectin DEC-205 receptor induced IL-10 production by DCs and T cells in vitro; intraperitoneal injection into OVA-primed mice produced a similar IL-10 pattern dependent on the density of surface modification.

    “Recently, NPs’ surface modification with an antibody against the DC lectin DEC-205 receptor induced the production of IL-10 by DCs and T cells in vitro. When these modified particles were intraperitoneally injected into ovalbumin (OVA) primed mice, a similar IL-10 pattern was observed, which was dependent on the density of surface modification [69].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
