Abstract

Mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) reportedly inhibit the mixed lymphocyte reaction. Whether this effect is mediated by dendritic cells (DCs) is still unknown. In this study, we used an in vitro model to observe the effects of MSCs and their supernatants on the development of monocyte-derived DCs. Phenotypes and the endocytosic ability of harvested DCs were determined by flow cytometry; interleukin 12 (IL-12) secreted by DCs was evaluated by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA); and the antigen-presenting function of DCs was evaluated by MLR. Our results show that MSCs inhibit the up-regulation of CD1a, CD40, CD80, CD86, and HLA-DR during DC differentiation and prevent an increase of CD40, CD86, and CD83 expression during DC maturation. MSCs supernatants had no effect on DCs differentiation, but they inhibited the up-regulation of CD83 during maturation. Both MSCs and their supernatants interfered with endocytosis of DCs, decreased their capacity to secret IL-12 and activate alloreactive T cells. Thus, effects of MSCs on DCs contribute to immunoregulation and development.

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.
