Effects of low-dose irradiation on enhancement of immunity by dendritic cells.

Abstract:

:Low-doses of irradiation have been reported to have beneficial effects, particularly anti-tumor effects. In this paper, we show the effects of the low-dose irradiation on T cell activation induced by dendritic cells (DCs). DCs, which had been pre-irradiated at 0.02-1.0 Gy from a (137)Cs source, were cultured with allogeneic T cells, and the proliferation of T cells was then examined. The 0.05Gy-pre-irradiated DCs showed the highest proliferation capacity of T cells. The 0.05Gy-irradiation does not augment the expression of major histocompatibility complexes (MHCs) or costimulatory molecules on DCs, as with non-irradiated DCs or 1Gy-irradiated DCs, but does augment the production of IL-2, IL-12 and IFN-gamma DCs. These results suggest that the low-dose irradiation augments T cell-activation capacity through cytokine production by DCs, which might shift naïve helper T cells to Th1 cells.
