CD1c+ CDs

The properties of this DC population and its production of cytokines in response to different Toll-like receptor (TLR) agonists were evaluated. The TLR agonists used were: PAM3CSK4, Poly I:C, LPS, Flagellin, Imiquimod, Resiquimod, CpG 2216, CpG 2006. We found that CD16 and CD1c produce a number of cytokines in response to these stimuli, with the exception of CpGs. In addition, we found that CD16+ DCs are the major producers of TNF-alpha and IL-6, while CD1c+ DCs produce primarily IL-8.
