Dendritic cells (DC) are potent APCs for naive T cells in vivo. This is evident by inducing T cell responses through adoptive DC transfer. Priming specific CTL responses in vivo often requires "help". We study alternative sources of help in DC-dependent priming of MHC class I-restricted CTL. Priming an anti-viral CTL response in naive B6 mice by adoptive transfer of antigenic peptide-pulsed DC required CD4+ T cell help. CTL priming was facilitated by providing MHC class II-dependent specific help. Furthermore, transfers of MHC class II-deficient pulsed DC into naive, normal hosts, or DC transfers into naive, CD4+ T cell-depleted hosts primed CTL inefficiently. Pretreatment of DC with immune-stimulating oligodeoxynucleotides rendered them more efficient for CD4+ T cell-independent priming of CTL. DC copresenting a Kb-binding antigenic peptide and the CD1d-binding glycolipid
-galactosyl-ceramide efficiently primed CTL in a class II-independent way. To obtain NKT cell-dependent help in CTL priming, the same DC had to present both the peptide and the glycolipid. CTL priming by adoptive DC transfer was largely NK cell-dependent. The requirement for NK cells was only partially overcome by recruiting NKT cell help into DC-dependent CTL priming. NKT cells thus are potent helper cells for DC-dependent CTL priming.
