Human lung dendritic cells (DC) are considerably more potent than alveolar macrophages (AM) in inducing allogeneic T-cell proliferation. Tumor necrosis factor (TNF) alpha and beta produced during alloreaction are likely to be major inflammatory cytokines involved. Their concentrations were therefore analyzed during the interaction of AM or DC with allogeneic T cells. TNF alpha and TNF beta levels were respectively three-fold and sevenfold higher in the presence of DC as compared with AM. Cytokines such as interleukin-4 (IL-4), interleukin-10 (IL-10), and transforming growth factor beta (TGF beta) were compared as to their ability to control DC-induced T-cell proliferation as well as TNF alpha or TNF beta production. IL-10 had the unique capacity of reducing both TNF alpha and TNF beta production by 60 +/- 5% (mean +/- SEM) and 63 +/- 12%, respectively, while inhibiting T-cell proliferation by only 32 +/- 23%. IL-4 and TGF beta increased the release of TNF beta by 275 +/- 22% and 95 +/- 32%, respectively, while that of TNF alpha was slightly decreased or unchanged. An additive effect of IL-10 to cyclosporine was found for all three parameters studied. Interaction between CD4 or CD8 with DC was affected similarly by IL-10. Part of this effect could be due to the downregulation of class I and class II major histocompatibility complex expression.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

D008233 Lymphotoxin-alpha A tumor necrosis factor family member that is released by activated LYMPHOCYTES. Soluble lymphotoxin is specific for TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTOR TYPE I; TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTOR TYPE II; and TUMOR NECROSIS FACTOR RECEPTOR SUPERFAMILY, MEMBER 14. Lymphotoxin-alpha can form a membrane-bound heterodimer with LYMPHOTOXIN-BETA that has specificity for the LYMPHOTOXIN BETA RECEPTOR.

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).
