- Dendritic cells which represent a particular line of leukocytes originating in the bone marrow and which are present in practically all the tissues of the organism, play a key role in the control of the immune responses. Indeed, these cells appear to be the only cells capable in vivo of presenting antigens to naive and mature T lymphocytes, and of inducing, by activation of these T lymphocytes, an immune response of T helper type (J. BLANCHEREAU and RM STEINMANN , Nature, 1998, 392, 245-252). Activation of T cells by 'dendritic cells involves recognition and pre internalising antigens by them.
- the mannose receptor belongs to the family of C-lectins which represents a group of calcium-dependent glycoproteins forming non-covalent bonds with carbohydrates. If, as the name suggests, the mannose receptor binds preferentially to D-mannose, it also appears to bind to other carbohydrates such as L-fucose, D-glucose and N-acetyl-D -glucosamine which, like D-mannose, comprise two hydroxyl functions carried by two adjacent carbon atoms of the cycle which constitutes them.
- R 5 represents a group -OH, a group -SH, a group -NH-NH 2 , a halogen atom, or a linear, branched or cyclic, saturated or unsaturated carbon chain, comprising from 1 to 18 carbon atoms and optionally from 1 to 12 atoms chosen from oxygen, sulfur and nitrogen, said carbon chain being optionally substituted with 1 to 16 halogen atoms and optionally carrying at least one nucleophilic group or at least one electrophilic group, as a ligand for the mannose receptor or any receptor of the C-lectin family related to the mannose receptor, or for the preparation of such a ligand.

- ligands carrying quinic acid residues 33F (divalent ligand), 22F (tetravalent ligand) and 24F (octavalent ligand).
- Figure 12 illustrates the ability of methyl quinate to inhibit the internalization of compound 31F. The percentages are shown on the ordinate inhibition, calculated by the formula:
- MnX represents the mean value of the fluorescence intensity
- MnX 3 IF represents the signal due to the internalization of the compound 31F alone
- MnX mqui represents the signal due to the internalization of the compound 31F in the presence of different concentrations (expressed in mM) of methyl quinate, indicated on the abscissa.
- the curve indicated by the symbols - * - represents the inhibition of the internalization of the compound 31F by methyl quinate, and the curve indicated by the symbols - represents the inhibition of the internalization of the compound 31F by methyl - ⁇ -D-mannopyranoside, compound serving as inhibition control.
- FIG. 13 illustrates, in the form of curves, the average values of the fluorescence intensities presented by the dendritic cells after an incubation in the presence of solutions comprising respectively from 1 to 10 ⁇ M of ligand 23F (- • -), of ligand 24F ( - • * -), of compound 30F (- ⁇ -) and of compound 31F (-D-).
- solutions comprising respectively from 1 to 10 ⁇ M of ligand 23F (- • -), of ligand 24F ( - • * -), of compound 30F (- ⁇ -) and of compound 31F (-D-).

- abscissa the concentrations of the solutions.
- Figure 13 shows that an incubation of dendritic cells, for a duration of 20 minutes and carried out in the presence of a solution dosed with 1 ⁇ M of ligand 23F or of ligand 24F is sufficient to obtain an internalization of these ligands by these cells. . It also shows that this internalization is specific since the compound 30F (carrying polyhydroxylated chains) practically does not penetrate into the dendritic cells, and this whatever the dose of this compound used for the incubation of these cells, whereas the compound 31F (carrier of D-mannose residues) is found very widely in said dendritic cells. Furthermore, FIG.
- Figure 14 shows that the internalization, by dendritic cells, of ligands 23F and 24F, as well as that of compound 31F decreases drastically as the concentration of mannan increases. This indicates the existence of a strong competition between these ligands and the mannan with respect to the mannose receptor and confirms that the internalization of the ligands in accordance with the invention by dendritic cells is effected by the mannose receptor. c) Influence of the number of mannose mimes carried by the ligands in accordance with the invention on the internalization of these ligands.
- Figure 15 shows, on the ordinate, the percentage of specific internalization of the di-, tetra- or octavalent ligands (abscissa) by the mannose receptor.
- the tetra- or octavalent ligands are preferably internalized by the mannose receptor, compared to the divalent ligands.
- the optimal structures sought are those comprising 4 mimes of mannose, which are more easily synthesized than those comprising 8 mimes of mannose.
- Dendritic cells differentiated from mononuclear cells in the presence of IL-4 and the growth factor GM-CSF, are used on D + 5. They are incubated for 45 minutes at 4 ° C with 10 ⁇ g of human receptor anti-mannose (PHARMIGEN) and 5 ⁇ M of one of the following constructions:
- 61F ( Figure 16): dendrimer consisting of 4 L-lysine residues carrying 4 residues of D-mannose, as well as a fluorescein molecule (FITC). Construction 61F was prepared like compound 31F (cf. example 8, paragraph a), but by reacting 2-thioethyl- ⁇ , D-mannopyrannoside with a compound
- 21F, 22F and 64F constructions carrying respectively residues of shikimic acid, quinic acid and polyhydroxylated chains of galacto configuration (coming from molecules of galactonolactones).
- Construction 64F was prepared like compound 30F (cf. example 8, paragraph a), but using a compound 13 for coupling (cf. example 1, paragraph 1.1).

After incubation, they are fixed for 45 minutes at 4 ° C. with a solution of the following composition: PBS (0.1 mM MgCl 2 , 0.1 mM Ca 2 ), paraformaldehyde at 4%, sucrose. The fixing reaction is stopped using an ammonium chloride solution (50 mM), for 10 minutes and at room temperature. The cells are washed 3 times with PBS, then deposited on poly-L-lysine slides.
