Title in Portuguese
Interações entre células dendríticas, mastócitos e células tumorais.

Abstract in Portuguese
Os mastócitos (MC) são células teciduais, ricas em mediadoras inflamatórias, envolvidos na resposta alérgica, com papel imunomodulador cada vez mais reconhecido. Células Dendríticas (DCs), por sua vez, são sabidamente necessárias para a resposta imune, sendo as células apresentadoras de antígenos mais eficientes, capazes de responder prontamente frente à sinais de perigo. Neste trabalho, demonstramos que o contanto celular de DCs com MCs (iDC-MC) induz a geração de DCs com imunofenotipo tolerogênico. As iDC-MC exibiram menor expressão de HLA-DR e maior expressão de PD-L1, assim, não foram capazes de manter uma proliferação alogeneica. Ainda, os linfócitos expostos as iDC-MC induziram maior expressão de FoxP3+, IL-10 e TGF-β, capazes de suprimir a proliferação de linfócitos T naïve estimulados com mitógeno. Além disso, o contato resultou na maior produção de IDO, fenômeno este, bloqueado quando MCs foram tratados com anti-PD-1 ou iDCs tratadas com PD-L1 ou PD-L2, mas a produção se manteve inalterada após o tratamento das iDCs com anti-histamínicos.

Abstract in English
Mast cells (MC) are tissue resident cells, rich in inflammatory mediators, involved in allergic reactions, and with an increasingly recognized role in immunomodulation. Dendritic cells (DCs), on the other hand, are central to the determination of immune response patterns, being highly efficient antigen-presenting cells that respond promptly to changes in their microenvironment. Here, we show that direct cell contact between iDCs and MC bends DCs towards tolerance induction. These MC-exposed DCs decreased HLA-DR but increased PD-L1 expression and stimulated T lymphocytes to express FoxP3+, to secrete TGF-β and IL-10, and to suppress the proliferation of mitogen-stimulated naïve T lymphocytes. Furthermore, contact with MC induced DCs to express higher levels of indoleamine-2,3-deoxigenase (IDO), a phenomenon that was blocked by treatment of MC with anti-PD-1 or by the treatment of DCs with anti-PD-L1 or PD-L2, but not by blocking of H1 and H2 histamine receptors on DCs.
