Bacterial lipopeptides (bLPs) are increasingly used as adjuvants to
activate cell-mediated immune responses to foreign Ags. To explore
mechanisms whereby bLPs adjuvant T cell responses, we stimulated human
PBMCs with bLPs. We found that bLPs stimulate T cells to proliferate
and produce IFN-
in an accessory cell-dependent manner and in the
absence of exogenous protein Ags. The ability of bLPs to stimulate T
cell proliferation was Toll-like receptor 2 dependent and required
IL-12, interaction with costimulatory molecules, and MHC proteins. Our
data suggest that bLPs adjuvant adaptive Th1 responses by enhancing Ag
presentation of endogenous peptides.
