PG - 93 LID - 10.3892/ol.2023.13680 [doi] LID - 93 AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) are crucial in the development of immune responses. DC JAWS II is a murine cell line frequently used in DC studies. These cells are grown in two cell fractions: Adherent and non-adherent. The present study aimed to compare these two fractions in both immature and lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-activated JAWS II cells. The present study analysed the condition, phenotype, antigen uptake capability, signalling properties and the influence on the activity of T cells using flow cytometry, mixed cell reaction and ELISA methods. Adherent immature JAWS II cells exhibited increased endocytosis and decreased activation of the Pi3K signalling pathway. After LPS activation, adherent JAWS II cells exhibited increased expression levels of CD80 and CD86 costimulatory molecules, increased endocytosis and an elevated ability to induce T cell proliferation, compared with non-adherent cells. These results demonstrated that the two fractions of JAWS II adherent and non-adherent cells exhibited different properties and this should be taken into account in the planning of research.
