Abstract:
:Immununoelectron microscopy of human peripheral blood mononuclear cells enriched for the presence of antigen-presenting dendritic cells (DC) has revealed two morphologically distinct cell types both expressing DR and DQ major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigens but lacking T, B, natural killer (NK) and monocyte/macrophage markers. The first (type 1) has an irregular surface with numerous projections and shows cytoplasmic vacuoles. The second (type 2) has a paler nucleus showing only a thin rim of dense heterochromatin, large expanses of cytoplasm devoid of organelles, fewer vacuoles and a smooth cell boundary with few processes. In addition a few cells with a morphology similar to veiled cells of the afferent lymphatics (type 3 DC) were observed. Cells with a morphology intermediate between these three types were observed, suggesting that they may represent stages of the veiled cell differentiation pathway. Type 2 and 3 DC were shown by electron microscopy to be susceptible to productive infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), whilst type 1 DC did not support virus growth. Examination of infected DC preparations by in situ hybridization revealed a higher number of DC positive for viral DNA and RNA than for RNA alone. Thus, in addition to productively infected DC, there may be some that are latently infected, contain defective virus genome or replicate virus at a very low level.
