Dendritic cells are the most potent antigen-presenting cell for priming naive T cells. Optimal activation of T cells requires that dendritic cells undergo a process of maturation resulting in the increased expression of costimulatory molecules, such as CD40, CD86, and CD80, and the production of cytokines. In this study we analyzed the effect of infection of dendritic cells obtained from two strains of mice, BALB/c and C57BL/6, with the paramyxovirus simian virus 5 (SV5). Our results show that C57BL/6 bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDC) are much more permissive to infection with SV5 at a multiplicity of infection (MOI) of 10 PFU/cell compared to BALB/c BMDC, as determined by the production of viral proteins and progeny. However, infection of BALB/c BMDC with a higher MOI of 50 PFU/cell resulted in a productive infection with the production of significant amounts of viral proteins and progeny. Regardless of the permissivity to infection, both BALB/c and C57BL/6 BMDC efficiently upregulated CD40 and CD86. However, CD80 upregulation correlated with the level of expression of viral proteins and the production of viral progeny. While secreted alpha/beta interferon was required for increased expression of all three molecules, optimal CD80 expression was dependent on an additional signal provided by a productive viral infection. These findings provide evidence that the signals controlling the expression of costimulatory molecules following viral infection are distinct. Further, they suggest that the amount of virus encountered and/or the permissivity of a dendritic cell to infection can alter the resulting maturation phenotype and functional capacity of the infected dendritic cell.
