Background:Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is a heterogeneous disease in which excessive inflammation, autoantibodies, and complement activation lead to multisystem tissue damage. Plasmacytoid dendritc cells (pDCs) play a central role in the pathogenesis of SLE through dysregulated type I IFN production, together with activated myeloid DCs (mDCs), amplifying vicious spiral of autoimmune disorders(1). Therefore, control of the aberrant DC activation may provide an alternative treatment strategy against SLE.Objectives:Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), which has been used to treat lupus nephritis, specifically blocks proliferation of B and T lymphocytes by inhibition of inosine-5-monophosphate dehydrogenase (IMPDH). In addition, although there is evidence indicating the immunosuppressive effects of MMF on human monocyte-derived dendritic cells(2.3), there are no reports showing its effects on human blood DC subsets. Here we focused on the effects of MMF on the functions of the blood pDCs and mDCs.Methods:We isolated human blood DCs from healthy donors using cell sorting(4) and examined the function of mycophenolic acid (MPA), which is metabolic products of MMF, on DC subsets in response to TLR-ligands and serum from patients with active SLE. Written informed consent was obtained from all healthy adult donors and SLE patients.Results:We found that therapeutic plasma concentration range of MPA down-regulated expression of CD40, CD80 and CD86 dose-dependently on mDCs and pDCs without inducing apoptosis, in response to R848(TLR7/8 agonist) and CpG2216(TLR9 agonist), respectively. Of note, MPA profoundly suppressed IL-12 production and STAT4 expression in the mDCs and IFN-α production and IRF7 expression in the pDCs(Fig 1). We also obserbed inhibition of nuclear translocation of IRF-7 in pDCs treated with MPA by confocal microscopy(Fig 2). Furthermore,we identified that MPA had an inhibitory effect on SLE serum-induced IFN-α production by human PBMCs.Conclusion:Our data suggest that MMF can drive a wedge into the vicious spiral of autoimmune disorders through regulating the function of not only lymphocyte but also DC subsets. Thus, we unveiled a part mechanism of the therapeutic ability of MMF against SLE.References:[1]A Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells-Type I Interferon Axis is Critically Implicated in the Pathogenesis of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus.

Dendritic cells (DC) play an important role in the development and maintenance of immune tolerance. Although the inhibitory receptor ILT4/LILRB2 has been related with the tolerogenic phenotype of DC, the possible role of this receptor in the breakdown of DC tolerogenic function in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has not been elucidated. In this study, we analyzed the expression and function of the inhibitory receptor ILT4 in DC from SLE patients. We found that the percentage of ILT4 positive plasmacytoid DC and myeloid DC is significantly diminished in SLE patients. Interestingly, ligation of ILT4 did not affect the maturation or immunogenic capability of DC in healthy controls. In contrast, in SLE patients we observed an inhibitory effect of ILT4 on the immunogenic capability of DC. ILT4 was shown not to have a crucial role in regulating the maturation and function of DC from healthy controls but is partially involved in the maturation process and immunogenic capability of DC from SLE patients, suggesting that other inhibitory receptors, involved in the regulation of DC tolerogenic function, may be impaired in this autoimmune disease.
