摘要

Invasive aspergillosis is a life-threatening complication of neutrophil deficiency or dysfunction. Neutropenia has previously been associated with enhanced influx of CD11b-expressing conventional dendritic cells to the lungs in response to Aspergillus species, but whether neutrophils directly modulate the function of dendritic cells in this infection is not known. We hypothesized that, in the setting of intrapulmonary challenge with Aspergillus, neutrophils promote the maturation and traffic of lung conventional dendritic cells to draining mediastinal lymph nodes. We report that neutropenia results in a marked accumulation of dendritic cells in the lungs of mice challenged with Aspergillus but greatly diminishes their egress to mediastinal lymph nodes independent of neutrophil microbicidal functions. Furthermore, the phenotype of lung dendritic cells was more immature in neutropenic animals than in nonneutropenic mice exposed to the microorganism. Consistent with this, coincubation with neutrophils greatly enhanced the upregulation of costimulatory molecules on dendritic cells exposed to Aspergillus in vitro, a process that was dependent on cell contact and the dendritic cell receptor DC-SIGN. Taken together, our data support an immunomodulatory cross talk between neutrophils and dendritic cells in the context of host response to Aspergillus that promotes the maturation and efflux of lung dendritic cells.
