TLR ligands are effective vaccine adjuvants because they stimulate robust pro-inflammatory and immune effector responses, and abrogate suppression mediated by regulatory T cells (Tregs)2. Paradoxically, systemic administration of high doses of CpG oligonucleotides (CpGs) that bind to TLR9 ligands stimulated Tregs in mouse spleen to acquire potent suppressor activity dependent on interactions between PD-1 and its ligands. This response to CpG treatment manifested in a few hours, and was mediated by a rare population of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (CD19+ pDCs) induced to express the immunosuppressive enzyme IDO after TLR9 ligation. When IDO was blocked CpG treatment did not activate Tregs, but instead stimulated pDCs to uniformly express the pro-inflammatory cytokine IL-6, which in turn re-programmed Foxp3-lineage Tregs to express IL-17. Thus, CpG-induced IDO activity in pDCs acted as a pivotal molecular switch that induced Tregs to acquire a stable suppressor phenotype, while simultaneously blocking CpG-induced IL-6 expression required to re-program Tregs to become TH17-like effector T cells. These findings support the hypothesis that IDO dominantly controls the functional status of Tregs in response to inflammatory stimuli in physiologic settings.
