ABSTRACT Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in the generation of acquired immunity to infections by pathogenic microorganisms.Salmonella enterica serotype Typhimurium is known to survive and proliferate intracellularly within macrophages and nonphagocytic cells, but no data exist on how this pathogen interacts with DCs. In this report, we show the capacity of serotype Typhimurium to survive within the established mouse DC line CB1. In contrast to the case for the macrophage model, the compartments of DCs containing serotype Typhimurium are devoid of lysosomal membrane glycoproteins and the PhoPQ two-component regulatory system is not essential for pathogen intracellular survival.

Orf virus (ORFV) is a parapoxvirus that infects sheep, goats and man. In humans, the virus induces acute, pustular skin lesions that can develop into a progressive disease. Humans are susceptible to reinfection with ORFV and rare cases of persistent infection have been reported. ORFV encodes several immunomodulators, including a homologue of interleukin-10 (ORFV IL-10), that may explain these phenomena. The immunosuppressive effects of ORFV IL-10 on immature human dendritic cells (DCs) cultured from blood-derived monocytes (MoDCs) were investigated. MoDCs exposed simultaneously to lipopolysaccharide and ORFV IL-10 showed enhanced ovalbumin–FITC uptake and reduced IL-12 expression, indicating inhibition of maturation. Moreover, ORFV IL-10 inhibited the upregulation of DC cell-surface activation and maturation markers MHC II, CD80, CD83 and CD86 and inhibited the capacity of MoDCs to activate CD4+ T cells in an oxidative mitogenesis assay. These findings suggest that ORFV IL-10 may influence the development of acquired immunity in humans by impairing DC function.
