    Abstract Dedicator of cytokinesis 8 (DOCK8) is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor with an essential role in cytoskeletal rearrangement, cell migration, and survival of various immune cells. Interestingly, DOCK8-deficient mice are resistant to the development of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). To understand if EAE resistance in these mice results from an alteration in dendritic cell (DC) functions, we generated mice with conditional deletion of DOCK8 in DCs and observed attenuated EAE in these mice compared with control mice. Additionally, we demonstrated that DOCK8 is important for the existence of splenic conventional DC2 and lymph node migratory DCs and further established that migratory DC, rather than resident DC, are essential for the generation and proliferation of pathogenic T cell populations upon immunization with myelin Ag in adjuvant. Therefore, our data suggest that limiting migratory DCs through DOCK8 deletion and possibly other mechanisms could limit the development of CNS autoimmunity.

    Abstract Autoimmune diseases arise from a break in tolerance toward self-antigens and are characterised by the development of pathogenic T cell populations infiltrating the target organ. Regulatory T cells play an important role in maintaining self-tolerance through their inhibitory functions on effector T cells. The usage of ex vivo-generated regulatory T cells (Treg) has been regarded as a potentially attractive therapeutic approach for autoimmune diseases. However, the dynamics of Treg in autoimmunity are not well understood. Here, we summarise our published findings on the interplay between Treg and Th17 effector cells in vivo during experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), an animal model for multiple sclerosis. We have developed Foxp3gfp "knock-in" mice and myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)(35-55)/IA(b) (MHC class II)-tetramers to track autoantigen-specific Treg in vivo during EAE. On immunisation with MOG, Treg cells were detected in the central nervous system (CNS) as early as day 10. However, at the onset of disease, the accumulation of MOG-specific effector T cells (T-eff) largely prevailed. Subsequently, during remission T-eff rapidly contracted whereas a highly suppressive Treg population persisted in the CNS. The interplay between effector Th17 and Treg extend beyond their functions in vivo as we and others have identified the factors responsible for Th17 differentiation. While TGF-beta is a critical differentiation factor for Treg cells, IL6 completely inhibits the generation of Treg cells induced by TGF-beta. Instead, IL6 and TGF-beta together induce the differentiation of pathogenic Th17 cells. Our data demonstrate a dichotomy in the generation of Th17 cells that induce autoimmunity and Treg cells that inhibit autoimmune tissue injury.

    Abstract Interleukin-23 (IL-23) is a proinflammatory cytokine mainly produced by myeloid cells that promotes tumor growth in various preclinical cancer models and correlates with adverse outcomes. However, as to how IL-23 fuels tumor growth is unclear. Here, we found tumor-associated macrophages to be the main source of IL-23 in mouse and human tumor microenvironments. Among IL-23-sensing cells, we identified a subset of tumor-infiltrating regulatory T (T

    Abstract : Crohn's disease (CD) is a lifelong inflammatory condition with underlying environmental and genetic components. CD affects multiple parts of the gastrointestinal tract, and it has a growing incidence in Western societies. IL-23 receptor variants have been identified as susceptibility or resistance factors for CD in genome-wide association studies. Accordingly, IL-23 is required for the development of experimental inflammatory bowel disease in many murine models. IL-23 receptor is expressed by both innate and adaptive immune cells, which include Th17, natural killer T, γδ T cells, and RORγt innate lymphoid cells all of which are capable of secreting IL-17A, IL-17F, IL-22, and interferon-γ upon IL-23 stimulation. During the past decade, pathogenic and protective roles have been described for these cytokines in the inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis. More recently, innate lymphoid cells have been implicated in disease development. In this review, we have summarized and discussed these findings with an emphasis not only on the contribution of Th17 but also on innate lymphoid cells to disease etiology.

    Abstract The IL-23 receptor (IL-23R) signaling pathway has pleiotropic effects on the differentiation of osteoclasts and osteoblasts, since it can inhibit or stimulate these processes via different pathways. However, the potential role of this pathway in the regulation of bone homeostasis remains elusive. Therefore, we studied the role of IL-23R signaling in physiological bone remodeling using IL-23R deficient mice. Using µCT, we demonstrate that 7-week-old IL-23R
