Cross‐presentation of cell‐associated antigens by CD8α+ dendritic cells is attributable to their ability to internalize dead cells

Abstract

Summary: In the mouse, cross‐presentation is an exclusive property of the CD8α+ subset of dendritic cells (DC) but the basis for this selectivity remains unclear. Here we report that splenic CD8α+ DC are much superior to other DC subsets in internalizing dying cells in vitro. In contrast, CD8α+, CD8α– CD4+ and CD8α– CD4– DC subsets phagocytose bacteria or latex beads to a similar extent. Although CD8α+ DC are better than CD4+ DC at presenting ovalbumin (OVA)‐loaded splenocytes to naïve OT‐I T lymphocytes, CD4+ DC are better at presenting OVA‐expressing Escherichia coli to the same T cells. In both cases, presentation is abrogated by lactacystin. These results show that both splenic CD8α+ and CD8α– DC can present exogenous antigens on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I via a proteasome‐dependent pathway and suggest that the specialized cross‐presenting function of CD8α+ DC is a result of their ability to endocytose dying cells rather than a unique pathway for handling endosomal contents.

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.
