Here we explored the effects of ethanol on exogenous antigen presentation by DCs. BALB\/c, C57BL\/6, and CBA\/caj mice were fed ethanol or an isocaloric control diet for 8 weeks. The splenic DC population was expanded using an Flt3L expression plasmid via tail vein injection. DCs were purified and assessed for antigen presentation and processing and for peptide-major histocompatibility complex class I and II (MHCI and MHCII) formation on the cell surface. Interleukin-2 (IL-2) was measured as an indicator of antigen-specific T-cell activation by DCs in coculture. Antigen processing and peptide-MHCII complexes were evaluated by flow cytometry. We observed that ethanol not only suppressed allogeneic peptide presentation to T cells by DCs but also altered presentation of exogenous ovalbumin (OVA) peptide 323-339 to an OVA-specific DO11 T-cell line as well as to OVA-sensitized primary T cells. Smaller amounts of peptide-MHCII complexes were found on the DCs isolated from the spleens of ethanol-fed mice. In contrast to MHCII presentation, cross-presentation of exogenous OVA peptide via MHCI by DCs remained intact. More importantly, ethanol-exposed DCs had reduced B7-DC and enhanced ICOS-L (inhibitory) costimulatory molecule expression. Ethanol inhibits exogenous and allogeneic antigen presentation and affects the formation of peptide-MHCII complexes, as well as altering costimulatory molecule expression on the cell surface. Therefore, DC presentation of peptides in a favorable costimulatory protein environment is required to subsequently activate T cells and appears to be a critical target for the immunosuppressive effects of ethanol.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1128\/cvi.05029-11","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,12]],"date-time":"2011-05-12T01:17:48Z","timestamp":1305163068000},"page":"1157-1166","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":31,"title":["Ethanol Inhibits Antigen Presentation by Dendritic Cells"],"prefix":"10.1128","volume":"18","author":[{"given":"Ahmet","family":"Eken","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vivian","family":"Ortiz","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Jack R.","family":"Wands","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"235","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2011,5,11]]},"reference":[{"key":"key20180919073522_B1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"698","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2006.11.016","article-title":"Chronic ethanol consumption impairs cellular immune responses against HCV NS5 protein due to dendritic cell dysfunction","volume":"132","author":"Aloman","year":"2007","journal-title":"Gastroenterology"},{"key":"key20180919073522_B2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"245","DOI":"10.1038\/32588","article-title":"Dendritic cells and the control of immunity","volume":"392","author":"Banchereau","year":"1998","journal-title":"Nature"},{"key":"key20180919073522_B3","first-page":"1927","article-title":"Alcohol abuse, alcoholism, and damage to the immune system\u2014a review","volume":"22","author":"Cook","year":"1998","journal-title":"Alcohol Clin.
