“…Some reports suggest that DC (27,28,30,31,85,86) and B cell (35)(36)(37)(38)(39)(40)(41)(42)44) functions are altered during HIV infection. This emphasizes the need to identify ways to boost DC and B cell activities that will work in both naive and infected settings to maximally enhance the efficacy of prophylactic and therapeutic vaccines and more effectively limit HIV spread.…”

Immunostimulatory CpG-C oligodeoxyribonucleotides (ISS-ODNs) represent a promising strategy to enhance vaccine efficacy. We have shown that the CpG-C ISS-ODN C274 stimulates macaque blood dendritic cells (DCs) and B cells and augments SIV-specific IFN-γ responses in vitro. To further explore the potential of C274 for future vaccine studies, we assessed the in vivo effects of locally administered C274 (in naive and healthy infected macaques). Costimulatory molecules were marginally increased on DCs and B cells within cells isolated from C274-injected lymph nodes (LNs). However, cells from C274-injected LNs exhibited heightened responsiveness to in vitro culture. This was particularly apparent at the level of CD80 (less so CD86) expression by CD123+ plasmacytoid DCs and was further boosted in the presence of additional C274 in vitro. Notably, cells from C274-injected LNs secreted significantly elevated levels of several cytokines and chemokines upon in vitro culture. This was more pronounced when cells were exposed to additional stimuli in vitro, producing IFN-α, IL-3, IL-6, IL-12, TNF-α, CCL2, CCL3, CCL5, and CXCL8. Following C274 administration in the absence of additional SIV Ag, endogenous IFN-γ secretion was elevated in LN cells of infected animals, but SIV-specific responses were unchanged. Endogenous and SIV-specific responses decreased in blood, before the SIV-specific responses rebounded by 2 wk after C274 treatment. Elevated IFN-α, CCL2, and CCL5 were also detected in the plasma after C274 injection. Thus, locally administered C274 has local and systemic activities, supporting the potential for CpG-C ISS-ODNs to boost immune function to enhance anti-HIV vaccine immunogenicity.

“…Reduced numbers of circulating DCs have been reported in HIVinfected people, correlating with increased virus load (27)(28)(29)(30)(31), suggesting possible redistribution of DCs from the periphery to the lymphoid tissues. However, the number of interdigitating DCs is reduced in patients with AIDS (32).…”

“…Lymphoid pDC are identified as lineage (dim/À), CD123( þ ) /HLA-DR( þ ) mononuclear cells, as previously reported. 21,22 The number of pDC was calculated as follows: pDC/ml ¼ ((events in the pDC gate) Â (number of the beads per tube))/((events in the bead gate) Â (sample volume (ml))). 21 Cytogenetic analysis was performed on unstimulated short-term bone marrow cultures.…”

Circulating myeloid and lymphoid precursor dendritic cell (pDC) counts were determined in peripheral blood from 22 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) by a singleplatform flow cytometric protocol. The absolute count of myeloid and lymphoid pDC, as well as their relative number (as proportion of mononuclear cells or total leukocytes) was significantly lower in MDS (n ¼ 22) than in healthy controls (n ¼ 41). In 11 patients with chromosomal aberrations, purified pDC were examined by interphase fluorescence in situ hybridization. This revealed clonal involvement of myeloid as well as lymphoid pDC in all of them. These data therefore strongly suggest that myeloid and lymphoid pDC share a common precursor. Whether reduced peripheral blood counts of pDC contribute to the immunological abnormalities observed in MDS remains to be investigated.

“…In the last years there has been a lot of interest in the evaluation of peripheral blood DC subsets, as an improvement in the enumeration methods has been obtained (35). Using flow cytometry for DC counts, a reduction of circulating mDCs and pDCs was demonstrated for the first time in HIV infection (36)(37)(38). Several studies have shown that DCs in blood are decreased by viral, parasitic and bacterial infectious diseases (39,40).…”

Objectives: Immunotherapy with BCG (Bacille Calmette-Guérin) after transurethral resection of the bladder tumor represents a highly effective primary treatment for intermediate and high-risk superficial bladder cancer. The effectiveness of this therapy has been documented, but its mechanism of action is not clear yet. In the present study, we investigated the changes of dendritic cells (DC) numbers in peripheral blood and urine of patients with superficial bladder cancer undergoing BCG intravescical therapy Material and method: We have enumerated plasmacytoid and myeloid DCs in the peripheral blood and in the urine of patients with bladder cancer in order to clarify the role of these cells in the evolution of the disease and the effect of therapy. DCs in blood and urine samples were assessed using the single-platform TruCOUNT assay with monoclonal antibodies. The study population included 37 healthy donors and 13 patients with diagnosis of primitive superficial bladder cancer. Results: At the time of diagnosis a reduction of blood DCs was found in patients as opposed to healthy donors, while DCs were not found in the urine in the same way as in healthy subjects. Six of these patients were followed before and after weekly and monthly instillations of BCG. In the peripheral blood, we observed an immunological recovery of DCs from the third weekly instillation up to the sixth. In the urine of patients, we didn't find mDCs or pDCs at T0, but we found a statistically significant change from the third instillation up to the sixth. On the contrary, we didn't find mDCs in urine during monthly instillation. Conclusions: DC Count could be used in the monitoring of patients undergoing BCG therapy. Immunological restoration of mDC numbers in peripheral blood and the efflux in urine could be important for confirming the effectiveness of BCG instillation.
