PG - 257-64 AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) are key antigen-presenting cells (APCs) for initiating immune responses. However, in recent years, several groups have shown the defective function of DCs in tumor-bearing mice and in cancer patients. Our aim was to study the effects of lymphoma on DC differentiation and maturation and to assess the input of the tumor microenvironment and intravasation of tumor cells on DC precursors. EL-4 lymphoma cells were administrated via different routes (intraperitoneal, subcutaneous, and intravenous) and DC phenotype was investigated. Bone marrow-derived DCs and APCs obtained from the spleen were examined by flow cytometry, and immunohistochemical analysis of lymphoma, lungs, livers, and spleens was also performed. Intravenous administration of lymphoma cells induced suppression of DC differentiation and maturation assessed as a significant decrease of the IAb, CD80, CD86, CD11b, and CD11c expression on DCs and IAb on splenic APCs. Upregulation of APC differentiation was observed in animals after subcutaneous and intraperitoneal administration of lymphoma cells determined as increased expression of CD40 and CD86 in spleen APCs. These data suggest that the development of antitumor immune response might differ in the host receiving tumor vaccines via different injection routes. FAU - Sevko, Alexandra L AU - Sevko AL AD - R.E.
