Sumario: | The current paradigm indicates that naive T cells are primed in secondary lymphoid organs. Here, we present evidence that intranasal administration of peptide antigens appended to nanofibers primes naive CD8(+) T cells in the lung independently and prior to priming in the draining mediastinal lymph node (MLN). Notably, comparable accumulation and transcriptomic responses of CD8(+) T cells in lung and MLN are observed in both Batf3KO and wild-type (WT) mice, indicating that, while cDC1 dendritic cells (DCs) are the major subset for cross-presentation, cDC2 DCs alone are capable of cross-priming CD8(+) T cells both in the lung and draining MLN. Transcription analyses reveal distinct transcriptional responses in lung cDC1 and cDC2 to intranasal nanofiber immunization. However, both DC subsets acquire shared transcriptional responses upon migration into the lymph node, thus uncovering a stepwise activation process of cDC1 and cDC2 toward their ability to cross-prime effector and functional memory CD8(+) T cell responses. |
