Tumoricidal activity of blood-derived mDCs and pDCs after stimulation with TLR7/8 agonists. Unstimulated, TLR7/8- stimulated, or vehicle-stimulated (A) mDCs and (B) pDCs were cultured with K562 or Jurkat as target cells for a conventional 2-h europium-TDA release assay at the indicated effector/target cell ratios. Data represent the means of triplicate wells ± SEM from two independent experiments. (C and D) For inhibition of different cytotoxicity-inducing pathways, 12-h TLR7/8-stimulated mDCs and pDCs as effector cells were preincubated with 100 nM concanamycin A for 120 min, 5 μg/ml anti-TRAIL for 30 min, 5 μg/ml anti-Fas ligand for 30 min, or 5 μg/ml of an IgG1 isotype for 30 min. Target cells were (C) K562 for TLR7/8-stimulated mDCs and (D) Jurkat for TLR7/8-stimulated pDCs. Cytotoxicity was determined by a 2-h europium-TDA release assay at the indicated effector/target cell ratios. Data represent the means of triplicate wells ± SEM from two independent experiments.
