The constituents of mycobacteria are an effective immune adjuvant,
as observed with complete Freund's adjuvant. In this study, we
demonstrated that the cell wall skeleton of Mycobacterium
bovis bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG-CWS), a purified
noninfectious material consisting of peptidoglycan, arabinogalactan,
and mycolic acids, induces maturation of human dendritic cells (DC).
Surface expression of CD40, CD80, CD83, and CD86 was increased by
BCG-CWS on human immature DC, and the effect was similar to those of
interleukin-1
(IL-1
), tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-
),
heat-killed BCG, and viable BCG. BCG-CWS induced the secretion of
TNF-
, IL-6, and IL-12 p40. CD83 expression was increased by a
soluble factor secreted from BCG-CWS-treated DC and was completely
inhibited by monoclonal antibodies against TNF-
. BCG-CWS-treated DC
stimulated extensive allogeneic mixed lymphocyte reactions. The level
of TNF-
secreted through BCG-CWS was partially suppressed in murine macrophages with no Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR 2) or TLR4 and was completely lost in TLR2 and TLR4 double-deficient macrophages. These
results suggest that the BCG-CWS induces TNF-
secretion from DC via
TLR2 and TLR4 and that the secreted TNF-
induces the maturation of
DC per se.
