Abstract

The early induction of interleukin (IL)-12 is a critical event in determining the development of both innate resistance and adaptive immunity to many intracellular pathogens. Previous in vitro studies have suggested that the macrophage (M Phi) is a major source of the initial IL-12 produced upon microbial stimulation and that this response promotes the differentiation of protective T helper cell 1 (Th1) CD4(+) lymphocytes from precursors that are primed on antigen-bearing dendritic cells (DC). Here, we demonstrate by immunolocalization experiments and flow cytometric analysis that, contrary to expectation, DC and not M Phi are the initial cells to synthesize IL-12 in the spleens of mice exposed in vivo to an extract of Toxoplasma gondii or to lipopolysaccharide, two well characterized microbial stimulants of the cytokine. importantly, this production of IL-12 occurs very rapidly and is independent of interferon gamma priming or of signals from T cells, such as CD40ligand. IL-12 production by splenic DC is accompanied by an increase in number of DCs, as well as a redistribution to the T cell areas and the acquisition of markers characteristic of interdigitating dendriticcells. The capacity of splenic DC but not M Phi to synthesize de novohigh levels of IL-12 within hours of exposure to microbial products in vivo, as well as the ability of the same stimuli to induce migrationof DC to the T cell areas, argues that DC function simultaneously as both antigen-presenting cells and IL-12 producing accessory cells in the initiation of cell-mediated immunity to intracellular pathogens. This model avoids the need to invoke a three-cell interaction for Th1 differentiation and points to the DC as both a sentinel for innate recognition and the dictator of class selection in the subsequent adaptive response.
