Article Title: Dendritic cells in irradiated mice trigger the functional plasticity and antitumor activity of adoptively transferred Tc17 cells via IL-12 signaling
doi: 10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-14-2294
Figure Lengend Snippet: Lymphodepletion induced IL-12 but not IL-23 enhances the antitumor activity of Tc17 cells in myeloablated mice. A, Levels of IL-12 and IL-23 produced by dendritic cells from spleens of mice receiving escalating doses of irradiation. One day post-irradiation, dendritic cells were sorted from splenocytes as CD11c+CD86hi from mice given 0, 5, or 9 Gy (+HSC) TBI, and dendritic cells were plated overnight in cell media. After 18 hours, supernatant from cultures was collected and analyzed via ELISA. Data are representative of 2 independent experiments (n=4 mice per group). B, B16F10 tumor bearing mice received 9 Gy TBI (+HSC) were either infused or not with pmel-1 Tc17 cells. Mice were injected 0 and 24 hours post-transfer with 100 μg neutralizing antibodies against either IL-12p35 or IL-23p19 or IgG isotype control. * = p<0.05, ** = p<0.01, *** = p<0.001. Statistics for Fig. 3A were determined by t-test and for Fig. 3B by a one way repeated measures ANOVA.
Article Snippet: Neutralizing antibodies against murine IL-12p35 (MMp35A1.6; eBioscience) or IL-23p19 (AF1619; R&D systems) were used as previously published [ 13 ] or as prescribed on the website.
