Dendritic cells (DC) are required for the immune response againstListeria monocytogenesand are permissive for infectionin vivoandin vitro. However, it is unclear if DC provide a desirable intracellular niche for bacterial growth. To address this issue, we have compared the behaviour ofL. monocytogenesin murine bone marrow‐derived DC and macrophages (BMM). Similar to BMM, bacteria escaped to the cytosol in DC, replicated, and spread to adjacent cells. However, DC infection was less robust in terms of intracellular doubling time and total increase in bacterial numbers. Immunofluorescence analysis using a strain ofL. monocytogenesthat expresses green fluorescent protein upon bacterial entry into the cytosol suggested that a subpopulation of DC restricted bacteria to vacuoles, a finding that was confirmed by electron microscopy. In unstimulated DC cultures,L. monocytogenesreplicated preferentially in phenotypically immature cells. Furthermore, DC that were induced to mature prior to infection were poor hosts for bacterial growth. We conclude that DC provide a suboptimal niche forL. monocytogenesgrowth, and this is at least in part a function of the DC maturation state. Therefore, the generation of an effective T cell response may be a net effect of both productive and non‐productive infection of DC.
