The prominent role of dendritic cells (DC) in promoting tolerance and the development methods to generate clinical grade products allowed application tolerogenic DC (tolDC)-based therapies for controlling unwanted immune responses. We established an efficient method human DC, producing supra-physiological levels IL-10, by genetically engineering monocyte-derived with a bidirectional Lentiviral Vector (bdLV) encoding IL-10 marker gene. IL−10 are mature modulate T cell responses, promote...
Tolerogenic dendritic cells (tolDC) play a central role in regulating immune homeostasis and promoting peripheral tolerance. These features render tolDC promising tool for cell-based approaches aimed at inducing tolerance T-cell mediated diseases allogeneic transplantation. We developed protocol to generate genetically engineered human overexpressing IL-10 (DCIL-10) by means of bidirectional lentiviral vector (LV) encoding IL-10. DCIL-10 promote allo-specific T regulatory type 1 (Tr1) cells,...
