摘要
Objectives: Mannose receptor mediating endocytosis and endosomal recruitment of antigen play important roles in dendritic cells(DCs) cross presentation. Our previous study showed that the treatment with nicotine obviously augment DCs cross presentation and efficiently activate Akt pathway, but the exact roles of Akt in nicotine mediating endocytosis and endosomal recruitment of antigen are still unclear.Methods: DCs were derived from bone marrow precursor cells cultured with GM-CSF and IL-4. Then, the cells were stimulated with nicotine and the effects of nicotine on mannose receptor(MR) expression and Akt pathway activation were determinated by western blot. Akt pathway inhibitors or siRNA were further applied to inhibit the effect of nicotine on Akt activation and the role of Akt in nicotine regulating MR up-regulation, endocytosis and endosomal recruitment of antigen was observed by western blot, laser confocal microscopy and co-immunoprecipitation(co-IP). Finally, the actor of Akt in nicotine increased cross-presentation and cross-priming were investigated by confocal and Elispot respectively.Results: Firstly, Nicotine increase the expression of MR and up-regulate phosphorylation of Akt. Additionally,the inhibition of Akt abolished the nicotine's effect on MR expression. Secondly, the obvious colocalization of of Akt and MR was verified by Laser confocal microscopy and co-IP repectively. Thirdly, the inhibition of Akt efficiently increase the colocalization of antigen peptide-MHC I complexes with early endosome markers.Fourthly, the role of Akt in nicotine regulating cross-priming were further confirmed by Enzyme linked immunospot assay.Conclusions: Nicotine increase the expression of MR through Akt activation. However, Akt linked to MR decrease endocytosis and endosomal recruitment of antigen, result in attenuate cross presentation and cross priming, indicating an significant but complicated role of Akt plays in nicotine-augmented cross-presentation.
