摘要：CD1d-restricted T cells contribute to tumor protection, but their precise roles remain unclear. Here we show that tumor cells engineered to secrete granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor induce the expansion of CD1d-restricted T cells through a mechanism that involves CD1d and macrophage inflammatory protein 2 expression by CD8-, CD11c+ dendritic cells (DCs). The antitumor immunity stimulated by vaccination with irradiated, granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor-secreting tumor cells was abrogated in CD1d- and J281-deficient mice, revealing a critical role for CD1d-restricted T cells in this response. The loss of antitumor immunity was associated with impaired tumorinduced T helper 2 cytokine production, although IFN-{gamma} secretion and cytotoxicity were preserved. DCs from immunized CD1d-deficient mice showed compromised maturation and function. Together, these results delineate a role for CD1d-restricted T cell-DC cross talk in the shaping of antitumor immunity.
