lüll Immunoregulation of dendritic cells Wallet MA; Sen P; Tisch RClin Med Res 2005[Aug]; 3 (3): 166-75The paradigm of tolerogenic/immature versus inflammatory/mature dendritic cells has dominated the recent literature regarding the role of these antigen-presenting cells in mediating immune homeostasis or self-tolerance and response to pathogens, respectively. This issue is further complicated by the identification of distinct subtypes of dendritic cells that exhibit different antigen-presenting cell effector functions. The discovery of pathogen-associated molecular patterns and toll-like receptors provides the mechanistic basis for dendritic cell recognition of specific pathogens and induction of appropriate innate and adaptive immune responses. Only recently has insight been gained into how dendritic cells contribute to establishing and/or maintaining immunological tolerance to self. Soluble and cellular mediators have been reported to effectively regulate the function of dendritic cells by inducing several outcomes ranging from non-inflammatory dendritic cells that lack the ability to induce T lymphocyte activation to dendritic cells that actively suppress T lymphocyte responses. A thorough discussion of these stimuli and their outcomes is essential to understanding the potential for modulating dendritic cell function in the treatment of inflammatory disease conditions.|Animals[MESH]|Apoptosis/immunology[MESH]|Dendritic Cells/cytology/*immunology[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immunity, Cellular/*immunology[MESH]|Immunologic Factors/physiology[MESH]|T-Lymphocytes/immunology[MESH] |
