Abstract The present study was designed to elucidate the role of TLR2, TLR4 and dectin-1 in the production of IL-12p40 by bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BM-DCs) infected with Penicillium marneffei. IL-12p40 production was almost completely abrogated in BM-DCs from TLR2 gene-knockout (KO) and MyD88KO mice, but not from TLR4-defective C3H/HeJ mice compared to those from control mice. Furthermore, BM-DCs from dectin-1KO mice faintly produced IL-12p40 upon stimulation with this fungus. Using a luciferase reporter assay, P. marneffei activated NF-kappaB in HEK293 cells transfected with the TLR2 gene, but not with the dectin-1 gene, and their co-transfection did not lead to further increase in this response. These results indicate that TLR2 and dectin-1 are essential in sensing P. marneffei for the activation of BM-DCs.
