CD40 Ligation on Human Cord Blood CD34+Hematopoietic Progenitors Induces Their Proliferation and Differentiation into Functional Dendritic Cells

Abstract: Human CD34+ multilineage progenitor cells (CD34HPC) from cord blood and bone marrow express CD40, a member of the tumor necrosis factor–receptor family present on various hematopoietic and nonhematopoietic cells. As hyper-IgM patients with mutated CD40 ligand (CD40L) exhibit neutropenia, no B cell memory, and altered T cell functions leading to severe infections, we investigated the potential role of CD40 on CD34HPC development. CD40activated cord blood CD34HPC were found to proliferate and differentiate indep… Show more

“…These results are in line with reports on the effect of IL-4 [13,14,16,17,[34][35][36][37][38] and CD40 ligation [22,23,32] on DC differentiation from CD34 ϩ HPC as well as from monocytes or skin LC. They confirm the previously reported ontological dichotomy between DC and LC [3,5], and demonstrate that not only IL-4, but also CD40 ligation can prevent differentiation of bipotent CD1a Ϫ CD14 ϩ precursors into macrophages [32].…”

“…It is interesting to note that DC differentiated in the presence of only GM-CSF and TNF-␣ remained RelB lo/-, suggesting that this factor mainly acts by transducing activation or survival signals [31][32][33], although one cannot exclude that only low nuclear levels of RelB can trigger DC differentiation from their precursors. In spite of these similarities, DC differentiated from both precursors retained several original features in relationship with their origin: S100 was preferentially expressed by DC derived from CD1a ϩ CD14 Ϫ precursors, whereas DC generated from CD1a Ϫ CD14 ϩ precursors stayed CD11b ϩ on CD40 ligation [34].…”

“…The addition of anti-TNF-␣ antibodies to cultures containing IFN-␣ and GM-CSF did not affect the generation of DCs. More recently, ligation of CD40 on CD34 ϩ hematopoietic progenitor cells was shown to induce them to differentiate into DCs [62]. Flow cytometry for CD40 ligand was performed on the lymphocyte population of the DC cultures in order to exclude the possibility that IFN-␣ induction of CD40 ligand expression on T cells was indirectly responsible for DC differentiation; no CD40 ligand expression was observed.…”

“…Fas (CD95, APO-1)/Fas ligand is a key cellular apoptotic pathway involved in the physiologic regulation of immune responses [18], which has Clin Exp Immunol 1999; 116:307-315 been proposed to play a role in HIV-associated lymphocyte anergy and programmed cell death [19]. On the other hand, CD40L (CD154 or gp39) and OX40 (CD134) are molecules transiently expressed on the surface of T cells upon activation with fundamental roles on T-B cell interactions [20,21], as well as important effects on T cell differentiation [22] and on dendritic cell maturation [23,24]. Furthermore, they promote endothelial cell activation and expression of adhesion molecules that contribute to regulate leucocyte traffic and inflammatory responses [25,26].…”
