Another type of dsRNA, polyadenylic:polyuridylic acids poly(A:U), can again reality as an unsusceptible adjuvant, nevertheless it remains unclear how it exhibits its adjuvant effects. Here, we own characterized the adjuvant factor of poly(A:U). IL-12p40 was further produced by poly(A:U)-stimulated pDC in a TLR7-dependent manner.
This IL-12p40 induction resulted from two cDC subsets, CD24 gigantic cDC and CD11b high-reaching cDC in a TLR3- and TLR7-dependent manner, respectively. Consistent with the in vitro findings, TLR3 and TLR7 were required for the clonal T-cell expansion.
Notably, TLR3, rather than TLR7, was critical for generating IFN- -producing CD8 + T cells.
