OBJECTIVE Tolerogenic dendritic cells (DCs) play a critical role in inducing and maintaining tolerance. CD40 is a member of tumor necrosis factor receptor super family and is a potent T-cell costimulatory molecule. Therefore, in this study we evaluated the effect of CD40 silenced DCs by RNA interference on mice skin allograft rejection. METHODS Skin transplantation was performed from C57BL/6 to BALB/c mouse. Skin allograft recipients were assigned to four groups (n = 5). CD40 downregulated DCs were injected to the BALB/c mice intravenously 7 days before transplantation. Then, graft survival time, Treg generation, CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells infiltration and cytokine levels in serum of this group were compared with those of untreated and cyclosporine groups. RESULTS In comparison with untreated group, BALB/c mice injected with CD40 siRNA transfected DCs showed an increased graft survival time, Treg cells, IL-4 and IL-10 cytokine levels as well as decreased number of intragraft CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells. IFN-γ and IL-12 secretion were diminished, too. CONCLUSIONS Taken together, these data demonstrate that downregulation of CD40 in DCs can expand Treg cells and increase skin allograft survival.

D003713 Dendritic Cells Specialized cells of the hematopoietic system that have branch-like extensions. They are found throughout the lymphatic system, and in non-lymphoid tissues such as SKIN and the epithelia of the intestinal, respiratory, and reproductive tracts. They trap and process ANTIGENS, and present them to T-CELLS, thereby stimulating CELL-MEDIATED IMMUNITY. They are different from the non-hematopoietic FOLLICULAR DENDRITIC CELLS, which have a similar morphology and immune system function, but with respect to humoral immunity (ANTIBODY PRODUCTION).

D016207 Cytokines Non-antibody proteins secreted by inflammatory leukocytes and some non-leukocytic cells, that act as intercellular mediators. They differ from classical hormones in that they are produced by a number of tissue or cell types rather than by specialized glands. They generally act locally in a paracrine or autocrine rather than endocrine manner. Cytokine
D050378 T-Lymphocytes, Regulatory CD4-positive T cells that inhibit immunopathology or autoimmune disease in vivo. They inhibit the immune response by influencing the activity of other cell types.

D019013 CD40 Antigens Members of the tumor necrosis factor receptor superfamily with specificity for CD40 LIGAND. They are found on mature B-LYMPHOCYTES, some EPITHELIAL CELLS; and lymphoid DENDRITIC CELLS. Evidence suggests that CD40-dependent activation of B-cells is important for generation of memory B-cells within the germinal centers. Mutations in the CD40 antigen gene result in HYPER-IGM IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME, TYPE 3. Signaling of the receptor occurs through its association with TNF RECEPTOR-ASSOCIATED FACTORS.
