Cross-Talk in the Innate Immune System: Neutrophils Instruct Recruitment and Activation of Dendritic Cells during Microbial Infection
Open accessAbstract
Type I inflammatory cytokines are essential for immunity to many microbial pathogens, including Toxoplasma gondii. Dendritic cells (DC) are key to initiating type 1 immunity, but neutrophils are also a source of chemokines and cytokines involved in Th1 response ignition. We found that T. gondii triggered neutrophil synthesis of CC chemokine ligand (CCL)3, CCL4, CCL5, and CCL20, chemokines that were strongly chemotactic for immature DC. Moreover, supernatants obtained from parasite-stimulated polymorphonuclear leukocytes induced DC IL-12(p40) and TNF-α production. Parasite-triggered neutrophils also released factors that induced DC CD40 and CD86 up-regulation, and this response was dependent upon parasite-triggered neutrophil TNF-α production. In vivo evidence that polymorphonuclear leukocytes exert an important influence on DC activation was obtained by examining splenic DC cytokine production following infection of neutrophil-depleted mice. These animals displayed severely curtailed splenic DC IL-12 and TNF-α production, as revealed by ex vivo flow cytometric analysis and in vitro culture assay. Our results reveal a previously unrecognized regulatory role for neutrophils in DC function during microbial infection, and suggest that cross-talk between these cell populations is an important component of the innate immune response to infection.

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.
