PG - 426-432 LID - S0753-3322(17)36557-5 [pii] LID - 10.1016/j.biopha.2018.02.060 [doi] AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) have important pathogenic role in the induction and progression of ulcerative colitis (UC), but their role in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs)-mediated suppression of colon injury and inflammation is not revealed. By using dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis, a well-established murine model of UC, we examined effects of MSCs on phenotype and function of colon infiltrating DCs. Clinical, histological, immunophenotypic analysis and passive transfer of MSCs-primed DCs were used to evaluate capacity of MSC to suppress inflammatory phenotype of DCs in vivo. Additionally, DCs:MSCs interplay was also investigated in vitro, to confirmed in vivo obtained findings. Intraperitoneally administered MSCs (2 x 10(6)) significantly reduced progression of DSS-induced colitis and reduced serum levels of inflammatory cytokines (IL-1beta, IL-12, and IL-6). Passive transfer of in vivo MSCs-primed DCs reduced severity of colitis while passive transfer of MSCs-non-primed DCs aggravated DSS-induced colitis. Through the secretion of immunomodulatory Galectin 3, MSCs, in paracrine manner, down-regulated production of inflammatory cytokines in DCs and attenuated expression of co-stimulatory and major histocompatibility complex class II molecules on their membranes. Taken together, these results indicate that MSCs achieved their beneficial effects in DSS-induced colitis by suppressing inflammatory phenotype of DCs in Gal-3 dependent manner. Therapeutic targeting of DCs by MSCs should be explored in future studies as a useful approach for the treatment of UC. CI - Copyright (c) 2018 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
