The role of dendritic cells and their interactions in the pathogenesis of antibody-associated autoimmune encephalitis
Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an inflammatory brain disease which is frequently associated with antibodies (Abs) against cell-surface, synaptic or intracellular neuronal proteins. There is increasing evidence that dendritic cells (DCs) are implicated as key modulators in keeping the balan...

Abstract Autoimmune encephalitis (AE) is an inflammatory brain disease which is frequently associated with antibodies (Abs) against cell-surface, synaptic or intracellular neuronal proteins. There is increasing evidence that dendritic cells (DCs) are implicated as key modulators in keeping the balance between immune response and tolerance in the CNS. Migratory features of DCs to and from the brain are linked to initiating and maintaining of neuroinflammation. Genetic polymorphisms together with other triggers such as systemic or cerebral viral infection, or systemic malignancies could contribute to the dysbalance of “regulatory” and “encephalitogenic” DCs with subsequent dysregulated T and B cell reactions in AE. Novel in vivo models with implantation of mature DCs containing neuronal antigens could help to study the pathogenesis and perhaps to understand the origin of AE. Investigations of DCs in human blood, lymphoid tissues, CSF, and brain parenchyma of patients with AE are necessary to deepen our knowledge about the complex interactions between DCs, T and B cells during neuroinflammation in AE. This can support developing new therapy strategies. |
