CpG-BMDC–mediated induction of IL-10 in CD4 T cells is Myd88 and ICOSL independent but IL-6 and IL-21 dependent. (A) Naive T cells were activated on CpG-BMDC from WT, Myd88−/−, or Icosl−/− mice in the presence of TGF-β and analyzed on day 3 for expression of Thy1.1 and GFP. (B) CD4 T cells were cultured with WT CpG-BMDC plus TGF-β in the presence of the additives indicated and analyzed on day 3 for expression of Thy1.1 and GFP. (C) D10 BMDC (left) were left unstimulated or stimulated for 24 h with the indicated TLR/NOD agonists. MACS purified CD4+Thy1.1+ cells (right), induced in the presence of CpG-BMDC plus TGF-β, were cultured for 24 h with Il10−/− splenic DC in the absence or presence of OVA peptide. IL-6 was quantified by cytometric bead array and IL-21 by ELISA. Mean cytokine concentrations ±SEM are shown (ND, not detected; *, P < 0.05; ***, P < 0.001). All data are representative of at least three experiments.
