Key Points Dendritic cells recognize and mount an immune response against B. miyamotoi. Recognition of B. miyamotoi is partially mediated by TLR2. Dendritic cells stimulated with B. miyamotoi induce proliferation of T cells. The spirochete Borrelia miyamotoi has recently been shown to cause relapsing fever. Like the Lyme disease agent, Borrelia burgdorferi, B. miyamotoi is transmitted through the bite of infected ticks; however, little is known about the response of the immune system upon infection. Dendritic cells (DCs) play a central role in the early immune response against B. burgdorferi. We investigated the response of DCs to two different strains of B. miyamotoi using in vitro and ex vivo models and compared this to the response elicited by B. burgdorferi. Our findings show that B. miyamotoi is phagocytosed by monocyte-derived DCs, causing upregulation of activation markers and production of proinflammatory cytokines in a similar manner to B. burgdorferi. Recognition of B. miyamotoi was demonstrated to be partially mediated by TLR2. DCs migrated out of human skin explants upon inoculation of the skin with B. miyamotoi. Finally, we showed that B. miyamotoi–stimulated DCs induced proliferation of naive CD4+ and CD8+ T cells to a larger extent than B. burgdorferi. In conclusion, we show in this study that DCs respond to and mount an immune response against B. miyamotoi that is similar to the response to B. burgdorferi and is able to induce T cell proliferation.

Borrelia miyamotoi 激活人类树突细胞并引发 T 细胞反应

关键点树突状细胞识别并启动针对 B. miyamotoi 的免疫反应。B. miyamotoi 的识别部分由 TLR2 介导。用宫本芽孢杆菌刺激的树突细胞诱导 T 细胞增殖。螺旋体 Borrelia miyamotoi 最近已被证明会引起回归热。与莱姆病病原体 Borrelia burgdorferi 一样,B. miyamotoi 也通过受感染蜱的叮咬传播;然而,人们对免疫系统对感染的反应知之甚少。树突状细胞 (DC) 在针对伯氏疏螺旋体的早期免疫反应中发挥核心作用。我们使用体外和离体模型研究了 DC 对两种不同的宫本双歧杆菌菌株的反应,并将其与伯氏疏螺旋体引起的反应进行了比较。我们的研究结果表明 B. miyamotoi 被单核细胞衍生的 DCs 吞噬,以与伯氏疏螺旋体相似的方式引起激活标志物的上调和促炎细胞因子的产生。B. miyamotoi 的识别被证明是部分由 TLR2 介导的。用宫本双歧杆菌接种皮肤后,DC 从人皮肤外植体中迁移出来。最后,我们发现 B. miyamotoi 刺激的 DCs 比 B. burgdorferi 在更大程度上诱导了幼稚 CD4+ 和 CD8+ T 细胞的增殖。总之,我们在这项研究中表明 DC 对宫本芽孢杆菌有反应并产生免疫反应,这类似于对伯氏疏螺旋体的反应,并且能够诱导 T 细胞增殖。用宫本双歧杆菌接种皮肤后,DC 从人皮肤外植体中迁移出来。最后,我们发现 B. miyamotoi 刺激的 DCs 比 B. burgdorferi 在更大程度上诱导了幼稚 CD4+ 和 CD8+ T 细胞的增殖。总之,我们在这项研究中表明 DC 对宫本芽孢杆菌有反应并产生免疫反应,这类似于对伯氏疏螺旋体的反应,并且能够诱导 T 细胞增殖。用宫本双歧杆菌接种皮肤后,DC 从人皮肤外植体中迁移出来。最后,我们发现 B. miyamotoi 刺激的 DCs 比 B. burgdorferi 在更大程度上诱导了幼稚 CD4+ 和 CD8+ T 细胞的增殖。总之,我们在这项研究中表明 DC 对宫本芽孢杆菌有反应并产生免疫反应,这类似于对伯氏疏螺旋体的反应,并且能够诱导 T 细胞增殖。
