PG - 91-102 LID - S0165-2478(17)30528-X [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.imlet.2018.02.001 [doi] AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) are essential players in the activation of T cells and in the development of adaptive immune response towards invading pathogens. Upon antigen (Ag) recognition of Pathogen Associated Molecular Patterns (PAMPs) by their receptors (PRRs), DCs are activated and acquire an inflammatory profile. DCs have the ability to direct the profile of helper T (Th) cells towards Th1, Th2, Th17, Th9 and regulatory (Treg) cells. Each subset of Th cells presents a unique gene expression signature and is endowed with the ability to conduct or suppress effector cells in inflammation. Pathogens target DCs during infection. Many studies demonstrated that antigens and molecules derived from pathogens have the ability to dampen DC maturation and activation, leading these cells to a permissive state or tolerogenic profile (tolDCs). Although tolDCs may represent a hindrance in infection control, they could be positively used to modulate inflammatory disorders, such as autoimmune diseases. In this review, we focus on discussing findings that use pathogen-antigen modulated DCs and tolDCs in prophylactics and therapeutics approaches for vaccination against infectious diseases or inflammatory disorders.
