The activation of dendritic cells (DC) leads to increased costimulatory activity (termed DC maturation) and, in some instances, production of immunomodulatory cytokines such as IL-12. Both innate and T cell-derived signals can promote DC activation but it is unclear to what extent the two classes of stimuli are interchangeable or regulate distinct aspects of DC function. In this study, we show that signals from newly activated CD4+ T cells cannot initiate IL-12 synthesis although they can amplify secretion of bioactive IL-12 p70 by DC exposed to an appropriate innate stimulus. This occurs exclusively in cis and does not influence IL-12 synthesis by bystander DC that do not present Ag. In marked contrast, signals from newly activated CD4+ T cells can induce an increase in DC costimulatory activity in the absence of any innate priming. This occurs both in cis and in trans, affecting all DC in the microenvironment, including those that do not bear specific Ag. Consistent with the latter, we show that newly activated CD4+ T cells in vivo can deliver "help" in trans, effectively lowering the number of MHC/peptide complexes required for proliferation of third-party naive CD4+ T cells recognizing Ag on bystander DC. These results demonstrate that DC maturation and cytokine production are regulated distinctly by innate stimuli vs signals from CD4+ T cells and reveal a process of trans activation of DC without secretion of polarizing cytokines that takes place during T cell priming and may be involved in amplifying immune responses.
