It is becoming clear that ionizing radiation positively influences certain immune parameters, which opens the possibility for combining radio- and immunotherapies in cancer treatment. The presence of functionally competent dendritic cells (DCs) is crucial in mounting a successful antitumor immune response. While it has been shown that DCs are relatively radioresistant, few and contradictory data are available on how ionizing radiation alters the functional integrity of these cells. Therefore, our objective was to investigate the effect of whole-body irradiation on the function of splenic DCs. C57Bl/6 mice were irradiated with 0.1, 0.25, and 2 Gy X-rays and changes in the phenotype of splenic DCs were compared to unirradiated controls. An increase was seen in DC surface markers influencing DC-T cell interactions. In vivo cytokine production was determined by direct intracellular cytokine staining. Irradiation with 2 Gy induced a 1.6-fold increase in IL-1α production, while the combination of irradiation and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) treatment induced a 3.9-fold increase, indicating a strong synergism between irradiation and LPS stimulation. Interaction of DCs with effector and regulatory T cells was investigated in a mixed lymphocyte reaction. While DCs from control animals induced stronger proliferation of regulatory T cells, DCs from animals irradiated with 2 Gy induced stronger proliferation of effector T cells. Antigen uptake and presentation was investigated by measuring the capacity of DCs to internalize and present ovalbumine (OVA)-derived peptides on their major histocompatibility complex (MHCI) molecules. Irradiation with 2 Gy did not influence antigen uptake or presentation, while low doses stimulated antigen uptake and reduced the level of antigen presentation. In conclusion, high-dose in vivo irradiation induced increased expression of T cell costimulatory markers, enhanced production of proinflammatory cytokines and a stronger stimulation of effector T cell proliferation than that of regulatory T cells. However, it did not influence DC antigen uptake or presentation. On the other hand, low-dose irradiation increased antigen uptake and lowered antigen presentation of DCs, indicating that low- and high-dose irradiation act on different pathways in DCs.
