To understand the interaction of dendritic cells (DCs) with cancer cells, we investigated molecular changes in DCs following co-culture with cancer cells. DCs co-cultured with Jurkat cancer cells showed remarkable down-regulation of MHC class I molecules, while DCs co-cultured with MCF-7 cancer cells showed minimal changes. Interestingly, down-regulation of MHC class I on DCs was not observed upon treatment with Jurkat cell lysate or culture supernatant, suggesting the importance of direct cell-cell interactions. The expressions of CD40, CD80, CD83, MHC class II, and IL-12p40 on DCs co-cultured with Jurkat cells were only slightly affected. In contrast, DCs co-cultured with MCF-7 cells showed increased expressions of CD80, CD83, CD86, and IL-12p40. Furthermore, DCs co-cultured with Jurkat cells showed a down-regulation of low molecular weight polypeptides (LMP) 7, and of transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP) 1 and 2 at the mRNA expression level. LMP7, TAP2 and ?2-microglobulin (?2M) were also down-regulated at the protein level. We further demonstrated how altered expression of MHC class I on DCs caused by co-culture with cancer cells affected autologous CD8(+) T cells, using the model MHC class I-presented HSV antigen. We found that DCs that had been HSV-treated and co-cultured with Jurkat cells showed a reduced potency to activate CD8(+) T cells. In contrast, HSV-treated DCs that had been co-cultured with MCF-7 cells induced activation of CD8(+) T cells, including high expression of CD25, CD69, granzyme B and cytokines, TNF-? and IFN-?.
