PG - 881-895 LID - 10.1189/jlb.2A1216-526R [doi] AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) are APCs essential in regulating the immune response. PGE(2), produced during inflammation, has a pivotal role in the maturation of DCs and, therefore, is vital for the immune response. The large variety of biologic functions governed by PGE(2) is mediated by its signaling through 4 distinct E-type prostanoid (EP) receptors. Immunogenic DCs express EP(2) and EP(4), which mediate the PGE(2) signaling. However, the expression and function of EP receptors in human tolerogenic DCs (tol-DCs), which present an inhibitory phenotype, have not yet, to our knowledge, been assessed. To clarify the role of EP receptors in tol-DCs, we examined the expression of different EP receptors and their effect using selective agonists in human cells. We find that EP(2) and EP(3) expression are up-regulated in in vitro-generated tol-DCs compared with mature DCs (mDCs). Activation of EP(2)-EP(4) has a direct effect on the surface expression of costimulatory molecules and maturation receptors, such as CD80, CD83, and CD86 or MHCII and CCR7 in tol-DCs, the latter being exclusively modulated by PGE(2)-EP(4) signaling. Importantly, we find that EP(2) and EP(3) receptors are involved in tolerance induction through IL-10 production by tol-DCs. These results are in sharp contrast with the inflammatory role of EP(4) Moreover, we show that DCs generated in the presence of agonists for EP receptors, induce naive T cell differentiation toward polarized Th1/Th17 cells. Given the differential effects of EP receptors, our results suggest that EP receptor agonist/antagonists might become relevant novel drug templates to modulate immune response.
