DCs:
• located throughout the body
• capture and process antigens
• present antigens with:• MHC I for CD8+ cells• MHC II for CD4+ cells

Myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs)
Most similar to monocytes. mDC are made up of at least two subsets:(1) the more common mDC-1, which is a major stimulator of T cells(2) the extremely rare mDC-2, which may have a function in fighting wound infection
Plasmacytiod dendritic cells (pDCs)
Look like plasma cells, but have certain characteristics similar to myeloid dendritic cells.
Dendritic cells

Dendritic cells
CD4+ cell
IL-4, IL-5, IL-13 to induce humoral immune response
(e.g. against helminths)IL-17 to mobilize
phagocytes to clear extracellular fungi and
bacteria
IFNγ that activates macrophages to fight intracellular infections
Regulatory T cell
Suppress effector T-cellsSome subpopulations of
T-suppressors:• CD8+ cells
• CD4, CD25 and Foxp3 (CD4+CD25+ regulatory T cells are exclusively called "Tregs")
Pathogen recognition
PAMP – pathogen-associatedmolecular patterns: groups of pathogens
that share similar structures
PRR – PAMP Recognition Receptors:
1. Toll-like receptors (TLRs):• 1,2,4,5,6,10,11 on cell surface• 3,7,8,9 in cell compartments
2. non-TLRs:• retinoic acid-inducible gene I (RIG-I)• C-type lectin receptors (CLRs)
C-type lectins
Lectins are sugar-binding proteins which are highly specific for their sugar moieties
Ca2+-independent lectins Ca2+-dependent lectins
C-type lectin receptors (CLRs) bind particular sugars
in Ca-dependent manner
C-type lectin-like molecules bind either carbohydrates,
polypeptide ligands or both.
• have at least one carbohydrate-recognition domain• can be cytoplasmic or transmembrane• some of them function as PRR (pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP) recognition receptors)
C-type lectin receptors
CLRs
asialoglycoprotein-receptor family (e.g. DC-SIGN, dectin 1)
mannose-receptor family (e.g. DEC 205)
Both families of receptors can recognize mannose, fucose, glucans etc.• mannose allows recognition of viruses, fungi and mycobacteria• fucose structures are usually expressed by bacteria and helminths• glucans are present on mycobacteria and fungi
Ag internalization, processing and presentation (on DC)
Some CLRs are expressed be several subsets of DCs:DC-SIGN and dectin 1 on subepithelial and some myeloid DCsOther CLRs are specific for particular DC subsets:• langerin (=CLEC4K=CD207) on Langerhans cells (e.g. epedermis), • BDCA2(=CLEC4C) on plasmacytoid DCs

• CLRs are targeted in vaccine studies to increase Ag-specific immune responses: DEC205 was one of the first targets in these studies
• CLEC9A is expressed on mouse CD8+ cells and recognized necrotic cells. When bound to ligand, activates SYK (spleen tyrosine kinase) for cross-presentation of necrotic cell-associated Ag

CLRs signaling and TLRs pathways
1. BDCA2, DC-SIGN, DCIR, MICL can modulate TLR-induced gene expression (but only when they are activated by their specific PRR). All these molecules do not effect gene expression without signals, induced by other PRRs.
2. Dectin 1, dectin 2, mincle do not interact with TLRs signaling. But they can induce gene expression without other PRRs.

1. Tonic Ca2+ signaling also inhibits TLR pathway via activating calcineurin (phosphatase). Calcineurin then inhibits MYD88 (myeloid differentiation primary response protein 88).
2. Thus BDCA2, perhaps, also inhibits MYD88 (and downstream TLR-induced pathway) through calcineurin.
3. In macrophages Ca2+ signaling is induced by TREM2 (triggering-receptor expressed on myeloid cells 2), that also binds to ITAM-proteins and down-regulates TLR-signaling.

ITIM-bearing molecules sum up
1. ITIM-bearing molecules seem to suppress cytokine responses induced by other PRR through the recruitment of SHPs.
2. SHPs decrease the production of TLR-induced pro- inflammatory cytokines
3. but SHPs increase production of type 1 IFNs induced by TLRs
ITIM – immunoreceptor tyrosin-based inhibitory motif
DCIR – DC immunoreceptor
MICL – myeloid C-type lectin like receptor
SHP – SH2-domain containing protein tyrosin phosphatases
DCIR and MICL pathways plasticity and interaction with TLR signaling are not clear.
TLR-independent signaling by CLRs. Dectin 1
1. Dectin 1 induces gene expression independently of other PRRs.
2. Works through recognition of β-1,3-glucan PAMPs that are expressed by many pathogens (C.albicans, Aspergillus fumigatus, Pneumocystis carinii)

Dectin 1. Some more
1. SYK-CARD9-dependent pathway activated in response to C.albicans leads to activation of NLR family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3=NALP3) inflammasome. The pathway leads to processing pro-IL-1β to active form IL-1β by caspase 1 through the generation of reactive oxygen species. However, details are unclear and need clarification
2. SYK also converge with RAF1 pathway, as SYK induces phosphorylation of p65 subunit of NF-kB by RAF1, which, finally, results in induction of il6, il10, il12a and il12b genes transcription.
3. SYK- and RAF1-pathways fine-tune NF-kB-induced cytokine responses:p65-P subunits form dimers that cannot bind to DNA. This leads to reduced production of IL-1β, IL-12 and IL-23 – major cytokines for Th differentiation.
4. Dectin 1 also induces CCL17 and CCL22 production (CC-chemokine ligand) which are involved in the recruitment of other leukocytes.

Therapeutic potential of CLRs signaling1. CLEC5A inhibition during dengue virus prevents virus-induced plasma
leakage and reduces mortality in mice.
2. Patients with SLE have reduced number of pDCs expressing BDCA2 that results in excessive production of type I IFNs, which is major pathophysiological factor in SLE.
3. DCIR deficiency in mice leads to the development of autoimmune diseases, such as rheumatoid arthritis.
4. Dectin 2 triggering by dust mite (Milben) allergens leads to cysteinyl leukotriene production that causes inflammation.
5. Peanut allergen Ara h1 interacts with DC-SIGN and induces Th2-cells responses.
• CLR agonists might activate pathways to prevent autoimmune disorders• CLR antagonists could attenuate or modulate inflammation
Vaccination strategies1. Specific delivery of antigens to DCs (e.g. on Ag-covered particles). This
approach was proved to work, but remains expensive and difficult.
2. Targeting DEC205, DC-SIGN or mannose receptor by antibodies induces CD4+ and CD8+ cells responses. This can be used to induce tolerance to pancreatic β-cells, thereby preventing type I diabetes (autoimmune type mediated by T-cell destruction of β-cells). Therapy against β-cell antigens expressed on DEC205 DCs reduces autoreactive CD8+ cells.
3. Mice immunization with zymosan or curdlan (dectin 1 ligands) induces specific CD4+ Th1 and Th17, as well as CD8+ responses through SYK-CRAD9 pathway. So could be used as adjuvants.
4. RAF1 inhibition is also studied, but RAF1 is involved in too many vital mechanisms to be a proper immunomodulatory target.
5. Carbohydrate-expressing ligands lack specificity as are recognized by several CLRs.

Future directions. Summary
1. CLRs are not just antigen uptakers, but modulators or even initiators of immune responses.
2. Some of them can induce different signaling pathways by themselves.
3. Cross-talks between CLRs and TLRs signaling remains to be fully understood (well, as everything in biology)
4. Many CLRs act either through SYK-CARD9 or RAF1 pathways and activate NF-kB.
5. Role of other CLR-inducible transcription factors in immune system is still unclear
Thank you for you attention
