Human plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) and myeloid dendritic cells (mDCs) are 2 types of antigen-presenting cells that exert complementary roles in innate immune responses. We demonstrated previously that in the presence of suboptimal stimulation or when only 1 dendritic cell type is directly stimulated, contact-dependent crosstalk between mDCs and pDCs leads to the activation of both cell types and thus provides them with the ability to induce an optimal T-cell response. The precise mechanism is currently unknown. Here we demonstrate that pDCs, unable to secrete soluble factors because of previous stimulation, induce optimal mDC maturation, indicating that resting immature mDCs are fully competent to respond to Toll-like receptor-9-engaged pDCs in the absence of soluble factors. Thus, we conclude that immature mDCs already express receptors recognized by ligands that are upregulated on the surface of activated pDCs. Intercellular adhesion molecule-1 upregulated by activated pDCs may play a role in a donor-dependent manner.
