“…MoDC generated in the presence of 1,25‐OH‐VD3 were less capable of producing interleukin‐12 (IL‐12) p70,23 but rather secreted IL‐10 14, 24. These cells also possess decreased densities of the co‐stimulatory molecules CD80 and CD86 and of the antigen‐presenting MHCII complex 20, 23. Hence, with all three pillars of T‐cell activation being hampered by 1,25‐OH‐VD3 modulation of moDC development, its potential as a tolerance‐inducing agent for DC therapy, and as a therapeutic immune modulator against diseases with underlying inappropriate or overwhelming inflammation, was recognized 11, 18…”
