The priming of Th1 cells by CD8α+ DCs is IL-12 dependent. (a and b) CD8α+ or CD8α DCs or both subsets, isolated from p40-deficient (KO) or wild-type (WT) mice, were loaded with KLH and injected into the footpads of Balb/c mice. (c and d) Balb/c mice were injected in the footpads with CD8α+ or CD8α DCs with or without four daily injections of 200 ng i.p. rmIL-12. LN cells were harvested 5 d later and cultured with 10 μg/ml antigen. The production of IFN-γ and IL-4 was measured in the supernatants, as indicated in Materials and Methods. Similar data were obtained in all four experiments performed.
