Abstract

Antigen presentation by mature dendritic cells (DCs) is the first step for initiating adaptive immune responses. DCs are composed of heterogeneous functional subsets; however, the molecular mechanisms that regulate differentiation of specific DC subsets are not understood. Here, we report that the basic leucine zipper transcription factor NFIL3/E4BP4 is essential for the development of CD8α+ conventional DCs (cDCs). Nfil3−/− mice specifically lack CD8α+ cDCs but not CD8α− cDCs or plasmacytoid DCs in lymphoid tissues. Flt3 ligand–dependent generation of CD8α+ cDCs in lymphoid tissues and CD8α+-equivalent cDCs from Nfil3−/− bone marrow cells was also impaired. NFIL3 regulates CD8α+ cDC development in part through Batf3 expression. Importantly, Nfil3−/− mice exhibited impaired cross-priming of CD8+ T cells against cell-associated antigen, a process normally performed by CD8α+ cDCs, and failed to produce IL-12 after TLR3 stimulation. Thus, NFIL3 plays an essential role in the development of CD8α+ cDCs.

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.
