Exosomes derived from dendritic cells (DC) activate T cells in vivo, but whether exosomes are able to induce and/or modulate humoral immune responses is still unknown. We show that murine bone marrow DC pulsed in vitro with an intact protein (diphtheria toxoid (DT)) produce exosomes that induce, in the absence of free protein, in vivo Ig responses specific for DT in naive recipients. Furthermore, these exosomes stimulate secondary IgG anti-DT responses in mice primed with intact DT. Exosomes from mature, relative to immature, DC were more effective at inducing primary, although not secondary, IgG anti-DT responses. Whereas intact DT preferentially induced a type 2 (IgG1) anti-DT response, exosomes from DT-pulsed bone marrow DC favored induction of type 1 (IgG2b and IgG2a) DT-specific IgG. These results are the first to demonstrate the ability of exosomes derived from Ag-pulsed DC to induce and modulate Ag-specific humoral immunity in vivo.
