PG - 349-356 LID - 10.1089/jir.2019.0244 [doi] AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) and monocytes are key immunoregulatory cells that link the innate and adaptive immune response. However, understanding of human cell-specific responses to different doses of stimuli including lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is limited. This study investigated the monocyte and classical DC (cDC)-specific, as well as the overall inflammatory response after exposure to varying doses of LPS. Fresh peripheral whole blood (n = 8) was used in an in vitro peripheral blood culture model to assess cDC and monocyte responses in coculture with varying doses of LPS (0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1 mug/mL). cDC and monocyte cytokine responses were measured through flow cytometry. Supernatants collected from the in vitro model were used in a cytometric bead array to assess the overall inflammatory response. Exposure to all doses of LPS tested increased monocyte, cDC, and the overall leukocyte response. A dose-dependent reduction in cDC and monocyte cytokine production was also evident with higher LPS doses. This study demonstrates that cell-subset-specific responses are more susceptible to LPS exposure compared with the overall inflammatory response. Therefore, assays that assess cell-specific immune responses may be more beneficial to identify underlying pathophysiology of infection and inflammation.
