Abstract
Dendritic cells (DCs) mature in an immunogenic or tolerogenic manner depending on the context in which an antigen is perceived, preserving the balance between immunity and tolerance. Whereas the pathways driving immunogenic maturation in response to infectious insults are well-characterized, the signals that drive tolerogenic maturation during homeostasis are still poorly understood. We found that the engulfment of apoptotic cells triggered homeostatic maturation of conventional cDC1s within the spleen. This maturation process could be mimicked by engulfment of empty, non-adjuvanted lipid nanoparticles (LNPs), was marked by intracellular accumulation of cholesterol, and highly unique to type 1 DCs. Engulfment of either apoptotic cells or cholesterol-rich LNPs led to activation of the LXR pathway, which promotes the efflux of cellular cholesterol, and repressed genes associated with immunogenic maturation. In contrast, simultaneous engagement of TLR3 to mimic viral infection via administration of poly(I:C)-adjuvanted LNPs repressed the LXR pathway, thus delaying cellular cholesterol efflux and inducing genes that promote T cell-mediated immunity. These data demonstrate that conserved cellular cholesterol efflux pathways are differentially regulated in in tolerogenic versus immunogenic cDC1s and suggest that administration of non-adjuvanted cholesterol-rich LNPs may be an approach for inducing tolerogenic DC maturation.
