Abstract
Lymphangiogenesis is induced by local pro-lymphatic growth factors and bone marrow (BM)-derived myeloid-lymphatic endothelial cell progenitors (M-LECP). We previously showed that M-LECP play a significant role in lymphangiogenesis and lymph node metastasis in clinical breast cancer (BC) and experimental BC models. We also showed that differentiation of mouse and human M-LECP can be induced through sequential activation of colony stimulating factor-1 (CSF-1) and Toll-like receptor-4 (TLR4) pathways. This treatment activates the autocrine interleukin-10 (IL-10) pathway that, in turn, induces myeloid immunosuppressive M2 phenotype along with lymphatic-specific proteins. Because IL-10 is implicated in differentiation of numerous lineages, we sought to determine whether this pathway specifically promotes the lymphatic phenotype or multipotent progenitors that can give rise to M-LECP among other lineages. Analyses of BM cells activated either by CSF-1/TLR4 ligands in vitro or orthotopic breast tumors in vivo showed expansion of stem/progenitor population and coincident upregulation of markers for at least four lineages including M2-macrophage, lymphatic endothelial, erythroid, and T-cells. Induction of cell plasticity and multipotency was IL-10 dependent as indicated by significant reduction of stem cell markers and those for multiple lineages in differentiated cells treated with anti-IL-10 receptor (IL-10R) antibody or derived from IL-10R knockout mice. However, multipotent CD11b+/Lyve-1+/Ter-119+/CD3e+ progenitors detected in BM appeared to split into a predominant myeloid-lymphatic fraction and minor subsets expressing erythroid and T-cell markers upon establishing tumor residence. Each sub-population was detected at a distinct intratumoral site. This study provides direct evidence for differences in maturation status between the BM progenitors and those reaching tumor destination. The study results suggest preferential tumor bias towards expansion of myeloid-lymphatic cells while underscoring the role of IL-10 in early BM production of multipotent progenitors that give rise to both hematopoietic and endothelial lineages.

Abstract
Although first cloning of the human ATP receptor P2Y11 was successful 25 years ago, the exact downstream signaling pathways of P2Y11 receptor, which can couple to Gq and Gs proteins, have remained unclear. Especially the lack of rodent models as well as the limited availability of antibodies and pharmacological tools have hampered examination of P2Y11 expression and function. Many meaningful observations related to P2Y11 have been made in primary immune cells, indicating that P2Y11 receptors are important regulators of inflammation and cell migration, also by controlling mitochondrial activity. Our recent studies have shown that P2Y11 is upregulated during macrophage development and activates signaling through IL-1 receptor, which is well known for its ability to direct inflammatory and migratory processes. This review summarizes the results of the first transcriptomic and secretomic analyses of both, ectopic and native P2Y11 receptors, and discusses how P2Y11 crosstalk with the IL-1 receptor may govern anti-inflammatory and pro-angiogenic processes in human M2 macrophages.

Abstract
Macrophages comprise a phenotypically and functionally diverse group of hematopoietic cells. Versatile macrophage subsets engage to ensure maintenance of tissue integrity. To perform tissue stress surveillance, macrophages express many different stress-sensing receptors, including purinergic P2X and P2Y receptors that respond to extracellular nucleotides and their sugar derivatives. Activation of G protein-coupled P2Y receptors can be both pro- and anti-inflammatory. Current examples include the observation that P2Y14 receptor promotes STAT1-mediated inflammation in pro-inflammatory M1 macrophages as well as the demonstration that P2Y11 receptor suppresses the secretion of tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α and concomitantly promotes the release of soluble TNF receptors from anti-inflammatory M2 macrophages. Here, we review macrophage regulation by P2Y purinergic receptors, both in physiological and disease-associated inflammation. Therapeutic targeting of anti-inflammatory P2Y receptor signaling is desirable to attenuate excessive inflammation in infectious diseases such as COVID-19. Conversely, anti-inflammatory P2Y receptor signaling must be suppressed during cancer therapy to preserve its efficacy.

Abstract
The G protein-coupled P2Y11 receptor is known to sense extracellular ATP during inflammatory and immune responses. The dinucleotide NAD+ has also been proposed to be a P2Y11 receptor ligand but its role is less clear. Here, we have examined for the first time human P2Y11 receptor protein levels and show that the receptor was upregulated during polarization of M2 macrophages. IL-10 reinforced P2Y11 receptor expression during differentiation of M2c macrophages expressing CD163, CD16, and CD274 (PD-L1). Nutlin-3a mediated p53 stabilization further increased P2Y11 receptor, CD16, and PD-L1 expression. AMP-activated kinase (AMPK), which mediates anti-inflammatory effects of IL-10, and nicotinamide phosphoribosyltransferase (NAMPT), the rate-limiting enzyme of the NAD+ salvage pathway, which is under the control of AMPK, were also required for P2Y11 receptor expression. The P2Y11 receptor agonist ATPγS and NAD+ could independently stimulate the production of IL-8 in M2 macrophages, however, only the ATPγS-induced response was mediated by P2Y11 receptor. Both in a recombinant system and in macrophages, P2Y11 receptor-driven IL-8 production predominantly depended on IkB kinase (IKK), and extracellular signal–regulated kinase (ERK). In conclusion, our data indicate that an AMPK-NAMPT-NAD+ signaling axis promotes P2Y11 receptor expression during M2 polarization of human macrophages in response to IL-10. PD-L1 expressing M2c macrophages that secrete the cancer-promoting chemokine IL-8 in response to P2Y11 receptor stimulation may represent an important target in checkpoint blockade immunotherapy.

Abstract
Immuno-oncology not only refers to the multifaceted relationship between our immune system and a developing cancer but also includes therapeutic approaches that harness the body's immune system to fight cancer. The recognition that metabolic reprogramming governs immunity was a key finding with important implications for immuno-oncology. In this review, we want to explore how activation and differentiation-induced metabolic reprogramming affects the mevalonate pathway for cholesterol biosynthesis in immune and cancer cells. Glycolysis-fueled mevalonate metabolism is a critical pathway in immune effector cells, which may, however, be shared by cancer stem cells, complicating the development of therapeutic strategies. Additional engagement of fatty acidy oxidation, as it occurs in regulatory immune cells as well as in certain tumor types, may influence mevalonate pathway activity. Transcellular mevalonate metabolism may play an as yet unanticipated role in the crosstalk between the various cell types and may add another level of complexity. In humans, a subset of γδ T cells is specifically adapted to perform surveillance of mevalonate pathway dysregulation. While the mevalonate pathway remains an important target in immuno-oncology, in terms of personalized medicine, it may be the type or stage of a malignant disease that determines whether mevalonate metabolism requires training or attenuation.

Abstract
The metabolic reprogramming that drives immunity engages the mevalonate pathway for cholesterol biosynthesis and protein prenylation. The importance of tight regulation of this metabolic route is reflected by the fact that too low activity impairs cellular function and survival, whereas hyperactivity can lead to malignant transformation. Here, we first address how mevalonate metabolism drives immunity and then highlight ways of the immune system to respond to both, limited and uncontrolled flux through the mevalonate pathway. Immune responses elicited by mevalonate pathway dysregulation may be harnessed to increase the clinical efficacy of current cancer therapy regimens.

Abstract
Intranasal application of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) induces acute encephalitis characterized by a pronounced myeloid and T cell infiltrate. The role of distinct phagocytic populations on VSV encephalitis was therefore examined in this study. Ablation of peripheral macrophages did not impair VSV encephalitis or viral clearance from the brain, whereas, depletion of splenic marginal dendritic cells impaired this response and enhanced morbidity/mortality. Selective depletion of brain perivascular macrophages also suppressed this response without altering viral clearance. Thus, two anatomically distinct phagocytic populations regulate VSV encephalitis in a non-redundant fashion although neither population is essential for viral clearance in the CNS.

Abstract
Macrophages play a key role in inflammation, tissue regeneration and tolerance. Their differentiation is regulated by tissue cells derived CSF-1 (M-CSF). The ability of macrophages to use autocrine M-CSF to control their differentiation and function remained controversial. In this study we investigated the regulation of M-CSF production by Th1 and Th2 cytokines (IFN-γ and IL-4) and tolerogenic stimuli - glucocorticoid dexamethasone in primary human monocyte derived macrophages. We show that IFN-γ and IL-4 efficiently induce production of M-CSF while glucocorticoid inhibited it in a dose dependent manner. Since glucocorticoid inhibits production of inflammatory cytokines we tested whether this effect is a result of inhibited M-CSF production. We showed that exogenous M-CSF rescues the ability of glucocorticoid-treated macrophages to produce TNF and IL-6 in response to LPS. These data indicate that glucocorticoid-treated macrophages retain the ability to respond to M-CSF. Analyzing the mechanism of this responsiveness, we showed that dexamethasone up-regulates surface expression of M-CSF receptor - CSF-1R. We conclude that the ability of macrophages to produce M-CSF secures macrophage differentiation under Th1 and Th2 conditions if tissue cells are unable to supply enough M-CSF. Increased surface expression of CSF-1R in tolerogenic conditions guarantees response to minute amounts of exogenous M-CSF.

Abstract
Dendritic cells provide a critical link between innate and adaptive immunity and are essential to prime a naive T-cell response. The transition from immature dendritic cells to mature dendritic cells involves numerous changes in gene expression; however, the role of post-transcriptional changes in this process has been largely ignored. Tristetraprolin is an AU-rich element mRNA-binding protein that has been shown to regulate the stability of a number of cytokines and chemokines of mRNAs. Using TTP immunoprecipitations and Affymetrix GeneChips, we identified 393 messages as putative TTP mRNA targets in human dendritic cells. Gene ontology analysis revealed that approximately 25% of the identified mRNAs are associated with protein synthesis. We also identified six MHC Class I alleles, five MHC Class II alleles, seven chemokine and chemokine receptor genes, indoleamine 2,3 dioxygenase, and CD86 as putative TTP ligands. Real-time PCR was used to validate the GeneChip data for 15 putative target genes and functional studies performed for six target genes. These data establish that TTP regulates the expression of DUSP1, IDO, SOD2, CD86, and MHC Class I-B and F via the 3'-untranslated region of each gene. A novel finding is the demonstration that TTP can interact with and regulate the expression of non-AU-rich element-containing messages. The data implicate TTP as having a broader role in regulating and limiting the immune response than previously suspected.

Abstract
Tumor-derived immunosuppressive factors contribute to the evasion of malignant cells from the immune response, partially by hampering dendritic cell (DC) differentiation. Here, we analyze whether soluble mediators released by the most frequent histological types of non-small cell lung carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma (SCC), and adenocarcinoma (AD) cells, affect the development and functionality of DC. Monocytes from healthy donors were differentiated in vitro into DC with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin (IL)-4, in the absence or presence of soluble factors (SF) from SCC or AD cell lines. Monocytes were differentiated in parallel into macrophages (MPhi s) with macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF). SF-treated DC were phenotypically and functionally more similar to MPhi s than to untreated DC [control DC (Ctrl-DC)]. Both tumors increased myelomonocytic markers (CD14, CD16, CD32, and CD163) and impaired CD1a expression on DC. SF-treated DC increased their endocytic capacity, and released higher levels of IL-6, IL-10, and lower levels of IL-12, compared to Ctrl-DC. SF-treated DC were poor stimulators in mixed lymphocyte reactions, and naïve CD4(+) T lymphocytes stimulated by SF-treated DC secreted lower levels of interferon (IFN)-gamma and higher amounts of IL-10 than controls. In contrast to AD, the effects caused by SCC were mostly abolished by IL-6 neutralization during monocyte differentiation. However, tumor-derived prostanoid blockade recovered the IFN-gamma levels secreted by lymphocytes stimulated with SF-treated DC, whereas prostanoid/IL-6 or prostanoid/IL-10 blockade decreased IL-10 production only by SCC-DC-stimulated lymphocytes. Thus, we provide evidence that lung SCC and AD cause comparable deficiencies on DC in vitro, skewing monocyte differentiation from DC to MPhi -like cells, but most of these changes occurred via different mediators.

Abstract
Transgenic mice expressing an inducible suicide gene, which allows systemic and reversible elimination of macrophages, were developed. A macrophage-specific c-fms promoter was used to express enhanced green fluorescent protein and a drug-inducible suicide gene that leads to Fas-mediated apoptosis in resting and cycling cells of the macrophage lineage. Transgenic mice were fertile, of normal weight, and showed no abnormal phenotype before drug exposure. The transgene was expressed constitutively in macrophages and dendritic cells (DC) but not significantly in T cells or B cells. Induction of the suicide gene led to depletion of 70-95% of macrophages and DC in nearly all tissues examined. Depletion reduced the ability to clear bacteria from the blood and led to increased bacterial growth in the liver. Depleted mice displayed several abnormalities, including splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy, thymic atrophy, extramedullary hematopoiesis, and development of peritoneal adhesions. This new, transgenic line will be useful in investigating the role of macrophages and DC.

Abstract
Recruitment of monocytes into tissues and their differentiation into macrophages or dendritic cells (DCs) depend on the microenvironment of the inflammatory site. Although many factors affecting this process have been identified, the intracellular signaling pathways implicated are poorly understood. We found that cyclic nucleotides regulate certain steps of monocyte differentiation into DCs. Increased levels of the cyclic nucleotides, cAMP or cGMP, inhibit differentiation of CD14(+)/CD1a(low) monocytes into CD14(-)/CD1a(high) DCs. However, DC-specific ICAM-3-grabbing nonintegrin (CD209) up-regulation was not affected by cyclic nucleotides, indicating that DC development was not blocked at the monocyte stage. Interestingly, Ag-presenting function was increased by cyclic nucleotides, as measured by the higher expression of MHC class II, CD86, and an increased ability to stimulate CD4(+) T cell proliferation in allogeneic MLRs. Although cyclic nucleotides do not completely block DC differentiation, they do block the ability of DCs to be induced to mature by LPS. Treatment during DC differentiation with either cAMP or cGMP analogues hampered LPS-induced expression of CD83, DC-LAMP, and CCR7 and the ability of DCs to migrate toward CCL19/macrophage-inflammatory protein 3beta. Interestingly, the induction of a CD16(+) subpopulation of cells was also observed. Thus, signals causing an increase in either cAMP or cGMP levels during monocyte recruitment to inflammatory sites may restrain the activation of acquired immunity by blocking DC development and migration to lymph nodes. At the same time, these signals promote development of an active intermediate cell type having properties between those of macrophages and DCs, which might contribute to the innate immune response in the periphery.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DC) represent a unique set of APCs that initiate immune responses through priming of naive T cells. Maturation of DC is a crucial step during Ag presentation and can be induced by triggering a broad spectrum of DC surface receptors. Although human DC express several receptors for the Fc portion of IgG which were described to play an important role in Ag internalization, little is known about the effects of IgG or immune complexes on DC maturation. In this study, we show that cross-linking of FcgammaR-type II (CD32) with immobilized IgG (imIgG) can induce maturation of human monocyte-derived DC via the NF-kappaB signaling pathway. IgG-mediated maturation was accompanied by a moderate increase of IL-10 secretion, whereas no IL-12 production was observed. Involvement of CD32 was further supported by experiments with the anti-CD32 mAb, which blocked IgG-triggered DC maturation and cytokine secretion significantly. Furthermore, DC cultivated in the presence of imIgG induced allogeneic T cell proliferation. Because this imIgG-induced maturation was considerably impaired in monocyte-derived DC from systemic lupus erythematosus patients, we suggest that DC, which matured in the presence of immune complexes, may contribute to prevention of pathological immune responses.

Abstract
Human monocytes differentiate into dendritic cells (DCs) or macrophages according to the nature of environmental signals. Monocytes stimulated with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) plus interleukin 4 (IL-4) yield DCs. We tested here whether interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), a potent activator of macrophages, may modulate monocyte differentiation. Addition of IFN-gamma to IL-4 plus GM-CSF-stimulated monocytes switches their differentiation from DCs to CD14(-)CD64(+) macrophages. IFN-gamma increases macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and IL-6 production by IL-4 plus GM-CSF-stimulated monocytes by acting at the transcriptional level and acts together with IL-4 to up-regulate M-CSF but not IL-6 production. IFN-gamma also increases M-CSF receptor internalization. Results from neutralizing experiments show that both M-CSF and IL-6 are involved in the ability of IFN-gamma to skew monocyte differentiation from DCs to macrophages. Finally, this effect of IFN-gamma is limited to early stages of differentiation. When added to immature DCs, IFN-gamma up-regulates IL-6 but not M-CSF production and does not convert them to macrophages, even in the presence of exogenous M-CSF. In conclusion, IFN-gamma shifts monocyte differentiation to macrophages rather than DCs through autocrine M-CSF and IL-6 production. These data show that IFN-gamma controls the differentiation of antigen-presenting cells and thereby reveals a new mechanism by which IFN-gamma orchestrates the outcome of specific immune responses.

Abstract
In order to avoid autoimmunity and excessive tissue destruction, the action of certain immunoinhibitory substances are very important for negative regulation of the immune system. Interleukin-10 (IL-10) is an important immunoregulatory cytokine which is thought to negatively affect both T cells and antigen-presenting cells in vivo. Adoptive transfer of IL-10-treated bone-marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) may be one therapeutic avenue to inhibit autoimmunity. In this study we present a comprehensive analysis of the effects of IL-10 on murine BMDC. We demonstrate that IL-10 can prevent BMDC maturation, as measured by both cytokine production and T-cell priming capacity in vitro. Furthermore, we show that IL-10 can inhibit DC maturation induced by strong stimulatory signals such as lipopolysaccharide or a mixture of cytokines (interferon-gamma, tumour necrosis factor-alpha, IL-4). Interestingly, maturation of both T helper 1- and T helper 2-inducing DCs, characterized by the induction of high levels of interferon-gamma and IL-4-production by responding T cells, respectively, was inhibited by IL-10 in vitro. Finally, our data suggest that both endogenous and exogenous IL-10 affect the T-cell stimulatory capacity of BMDCs after injection of in vitro-treated BMDCs into naïve mice. These data both support existing data as well as point towards a new understanding of the many aspects of IL-10-mediated immunosuppression.

Abstract
The active vitamin D(3)-metabolite 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) inhibits the interleukin 4/granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (IL-4/GM-CSF)-induced differentiation of human monocytes into dendritic cells without altering survival. Colony-stimulating factor 1 (CSF-1) is an important survival factor for cells of the monocytic lineage. We therefore investigated whether the inhibitory activity of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) is paralleled by a regulation of CSF-1 and its receptor. Purified human monocytes were cultured together with IL-4/GM-CSF in the presence of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3), its analogue tacalcitol, the low-affinity vitamin D receptor ligand 24,25(OH)(2)D(3), or the solvent ethanol for up to 5 days. Expression of CSF-1, CSF-1R, and GM-CSF mRNA was measured by RT-PCR. Protein secretion for CSF-1 was measured by ELISA, expression of CSF-1R by flow cytometry. The results showed that 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and tacalcitol significantly up-regulated CSF-1 mRNA-expression and protein secretion in a dose-dependent manner. The effect of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) occurred already after 1h of pre-treatment. In contrast, CSF-1R mRNA- and cell surface-expression was down-regulated simultaneously. The solvent ethanol and 24,25(OH)(2)D(3) were without effect. GM-CSF mRNA expression was not modulated in 1,25(OH)(2)D(3)-treated cells. These data point towards a distinct and specific regulation of CSF-1 and its receptor by 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) and its analogue tacalcitol in human monocytes which parallels the inhibition of differentiation into dendritic cells without altering survival.

Abstract
Interleukin 10 (IL-10) is an anti-inflammatory cytokine produced in the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) joint by macrophages/monocytes and infiltrating peripheral blood derived lymphocytes. Recent data suggest a role for physical cell-to-cell interactions in the production of IL-10. In this report, we have investigated the signalling mechanisms involved in IL-10 production by peripheral blood-derived macrophages upon interaction with fixed CD40L transfectants. IL-10 and tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) are produced by macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF)-primed monocytes/macrophages in response to CD40 ligation. The utilization of the inhibitors, wortmannin and LY294002, demonstrated a role for phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) whereas rapamycin demonstrated p70 S6-kinase (p70S6K) involvement in the production of IL-10 by these monocytes. The production of TNF-alpha was enhanced by wortmannin and LY294002, suggesting negative regulation by PI3K; however, it was dependent on p70S6K suggesting a PI3K-independent mechanism of p70S6K activation. One alternative pathway that activates p70S6K independently of PI3K and also differentiates between IL-10 and TNF-alpha is the p42/44 mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK), which regulates TNF-alpha production in a PI3K-independent manner. These observations suggest that CD40 ligation induces macrophage IL-10 and TNF-alpha production, the mechanism of which is p70S6K-dependent yet bifurcates at the level of PI3K and p42/44 MAPK.

Abstract
Interleukin-10 (IL-10), first recognized for its ability to inhibit activation and effector function of T cells, monocytes, and macrophages, is a multifunctional cytokine with diverse effects on most hemopoietic cell types. The principal routine function of IL-10 appears to be to limit and ultimately terminate inflammatory responses. In addition to these activities, IL-10 regulates growth and/or differentiation of B cells, NK cells, cytotoxic and helper T cells, mast cells, granulocytes, dendritic cells, keratinocytes, and endothelial cells. IL-10 plays a key role in differentiation and function of a newly appreciated type of T cell, the T regulatory cell, which may figure prominently in control of immune responses and tolerance in vivo. Uniquely among hemopoietic cytokines, IL-10 has closely related homologs in several virus genomes, which testify to its crucial role in regulating immune and inflammatory responses. This review highlights findings that have advanced our understanding of IL-10 and its receptor, as well as its in vivo function in health and disease.

Abstract
Murabutide is a safe synthetic immunomodulator derived from muramyl dipeptide, the smallest bioactive unit of bacterial peptidoglycan. Although it is well known that muramyl peptides modulate the functions of monocytes/macrophages, their activity on dendritic cells is poorly documented. We thus investigated the effects of Murabutide on immunophenotype, endocytosis, T-cell stimulatory capacity, and cytokine secretion of human monocyte-derived immature dendritic cells (iDCs). We found that Murabutide triggers immunophenotypic changes as upon treatment, iDCs up-regulate the surface expression of the major histocompatibility complex type II molecule human leucocyte antigen-DR, the co-stimulatory molecules CD80, CD86 and CD40 and the differentiation marker CD83, and down-regulate the expression of the mannose receptor. These phenotypic changes are also mirrored by changes in their biological activity. Subsequent to treatment with the synthetic immunomodulator, DC have a decreased endocytic capacity but exhibit enhanced stimulatory capacity for both allogeneic and autologous T cells. In addition, Murabutide-stimulated iDCs have a greater cytostatic activity toward the tumour cell line THP-1. Furthermore, in the presence of Murabutide, DCs transiently increased the release of macrophage inhibitory protein-1 beta, tumour necrosis factor-alpha and interleukin-10, whereas the enhanced production of macrophage-colony stimulating factor was sustained over the 3-day period analysed. In addition, Murabutide triggers the phosphorylation of the three classes of mitogen-activated protein kinases in iDCs. Altogether our results demonstrate that Murabutide triggers the maturation and activation of monocyte-derived iDCs. As this immunomodulator is approved for administration in humans, it could be a useful adjunct to boost the efficacy of DC-based vaccines designed against tumours or virus-infected cells.

Abstract
Both type I interferons (IFNs) as well as lipopolysaccharide (LPS) individually compromise selected monocytic or dendritic cell (DC) functions. This study investigates the influence of these agents on the differentiation and the regulation of cell death of monocyte-derived DCs generated in the presence of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor plus interleukin-4 (IL-4). It is reported that excessive apoptosis occurred rapidly in monocyte-derived DC cultures, if IFN-alpha or IFN-beta was added in combination with LPS or lipoteichoic acid (LTA). The small fraction of cells surviving in such cultures displayed a mature DC phenotype with expression of CD83, CD80, and CD86. IL-10 was found in the supernatants of monocyte-derived DC cultures, if supplemented with LPS or IFN-alpha plus LPS but not in control cultures. When monocyte-derived DCs were generated in the presence of IFN-alpha without LPS, these cells displayed an immature DC phenotype with a reduction of cell recovery but no overt apoptosis. However, the addition of LPS, LTA, LPS plus IFN-gamma, or tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-alpha) plus prostaglandin E2 to such cells again resulted in the rapid induction of apoptosis in the majority of cells, together with a reduced production of IL-12 p70 and TNF-alpha. Together, these data indicate an exquisite sensitivity of monocyte-derived DCs to activation-induced cell death if generated in the presence of IFN-alpha, indicating the existence of an important mechanism of immunosuppression caused by IFN-alpha-inducing agents, such as viral or bacterial stimuli.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DC) generated from peripheral blood monocytes have been used with promising results as a new approach for the immunotherapy of cancer. However, at least four different subpopulations of peripheral blood monocytes have been recognized and their contribution to the generation of functional DC is not known. Recently, the monoclonal antibody M-DC8 has been shown to react with 0.2 - 1 % of blood leukocytes. We have identified M-DC8(+) cells as monocytes which represent about 40 % of CD14(low)CD16(+) monocytes. Similar to M-DC8(-) monocytes, they develop in the presence of GM-CSF and IL-4 into a very homogenous population of cells with DC phenotype and function. M-DC8(+) DC show on average a twofold higher expression of HLA class I and class II molecules than M-DC8(-) DC. These DC produce IL-12p75 both in response to LPS and to CD40 ligation. M-DC8(+) DC induced a strong Th1 immune response and were two to four old more potent than M-DC8(-) DC for the priming of cord blood T cells. M-DC8(+) monocytes can be used as a source of very potent dendritic cells with the potential to significantly improve the efficacy of DC-based immunotherapies.

Abstract
Inflammation is an important neuropathological change in Alzheimer's disease (AD). However, the pathophysiological factors that initiate and maintain the inflammatory response in AD are unknown. We examined AbetaPP(V717F) transgenic mice, which show numerous brain amyloid-beta (Abeta) deposits, for expression of the macrophage colony-stimulating factor (M-CSF) and its receptor (M-CSFR). M-CSF is increased in the brain in AD and dramatically augments the effects of Abeta on cultured microglia. AbetaPP(V717F) animals 12 months of age showed large numbers of microglia strongly labeled with an M-CSFR antibody near Abeta deposits. M-CSFR mRNA and protein levels were also increased in brain homogenates from AbetaPP(V717F) animals. Dystrophic neurites and astroglia showed no M-CSFR labeling in the transgenic animals. A M-CSF antibody decorated neuritic structures near hippocampal Abeta deposits in transgenic animals. M-CSF mRNA was also increased in AbetaPP(V717F) animals in comparison with wild-type controls. Simultaneous overexpression of M-CSFR and its ligand in AbetaPP(V717F) animals could result in augmentation of Abeta-induced activation of microglia. Because chronic activation of microglia is thought to result in neuronal injury, the M-CSF system may be a potential target for therapeutic intervention in AD.

Abstract
Two mouse monoclonal antibodies (MAB) (clones 2G6 and 2B10) directed against porcine macrophages are described that are suitable for use in immunohistochemistry, FACS analysis and western blot. As immunogen, porcine cells from bronchoalveolar lavage (BAL) were used. The MABs obtained belonged to the mouse IgG1 subclass. The molecular weights of the corresponding antigens were detected by western blot under non-reducing conditions (2G6: 140-150kDa; 2B10: 140-145kDa). For specificity screening, porcine snap-frozen tissues of lung, lung lymph node, tonsil, spleen, thymus, brain, liver, gut and kidney were used. The MABs were able to identify cell populations of the mononuclear phagocytic system in these organs. While MAB 2G6 detected tissue macrophages (sinusoidal lymph node macrophages, red pulp spleen macrophages, Kupffer cells, Langerhans cells, thymus macrophages, macrophages of lung and macrophages of kidney), MAB 2B10 stained cells scattered in the lymph node (subsinusoidal, interfollicular and follicular macrophages) and in the lung interstitium. Additionally, it showed reactivity with Kupffer cells, spleen and kidney macrophages. An immunoreactivity of the MABs could be established also for human but not for bovine and avian macrophages. By flow cytometric analysis, MAB 2B10 reacted with a subpopulation of BAL and peritoneal cells. Antibody 2G6 detected macrophages of the BAL and the peritoneal fluid as well as peripheral blood monocytes.

Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a critical obligate role in presenting antigens to T cells for activation. In the process, upon antigen capture, DCs undergo maturation and become more stimulatory. Human myeloid DCs can be generated from various sources, including blood, bone marrow, and CD34(+) stem cells. As such, plastic-adherent monocytes from circulation have served as a ready source for generating myeloid DCs in culture in granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) and interleukin-4 (IL-4) for translational research in active specific immunotherapy, especially in cancer, with the belief that they are essentially stimulatory or "immunogenic." Here we show that in vitro cultures of plastic-adherent circulating monocytes in GM-CSF and IL-4 followed by further maturation in interferon-gamma plus bacterial superantigens (DC maturing agents) can give rise to two diametrically opposite types of DCs-one stimulatory and another inhibitory. The stimulatory DCs express higher amounts of costimulatory molecules, synthesize IL-12, and efficiently stimulate naive allogeneic T cells in mixed lymphocyte reaction (MLR). The inhibitory DCs, in contrast, express lower concentrations of the critical costimulatory molecules, synthesize large amounts of IL-10, and are nonstimulatory in allogeneic primary MLR. Moreover, while the stimulatory DCs further amplify proliferation of T cells in lectin-driven proliferation assays, the inhibitory DCs totally block T cell proliferation in similar assays, in vitro. Most interestingly, neutralization of the endogenously derived IL-10 with anti-IL-10 antibody in DC cultures repolarizes the inhibitory DCs toward stimulatory phenotype. Accordingly, these observations have important implications in translational research involving myeloid DCs.

Abstract
Studies have indicated that professional APCs in the periphery, such as dendritic cells and macrophages, play an important role in initiating DNA vaccine-specific immune responses. To engineer the immune response induced by DNA vaccines in vivo we investigated the modulatory effects of codelivering growth factor genes for the hematopoietic APCs along with DNA vaccines. Specifically, we examined the effects on the antigen-specific immune responses following the codelivery of the gene expression cassettes for M-CSF, G-CSF, and GM-CSF along with HIV-1 DNA immunogen constructs. We observed that coimmunization with GM-CSF increased the antibody response and resulted in a significant enhancement of lymphoproliferative response. Furthermore, among all coinjection combinations, we found that M-CSF coinjections resulted in a high level of CTL enhancement. This enhancement of CTL responses observed from the coinjection with M-CSF was CD8+ T cell dependent and was associated with the presence of CD11c+ cells at the site of injection and with the antigen-specific induction of the beta-chemokine MIP-1beta, suggesting a role for this chemokine in CTL induction. These results suggest that hematopoietic growth factors should be further studied as potential adjuvants for in vivo modulators of immune responses.
