<jats:sec> <jats:title>Background—</jats:title> <jats:p>Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) bridge innate and adaptive immune responses and are important regulators of immuno-inflammatory diseases. However, their role in atherosclerosis remains elusive.</jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Methods and Results—</jats:title> <jats:p> Here, we used genetic approaches to investigate the role of pDCs in atherosclerosis. Selective pDC deficiency in vivo was achieved using <jats:italic>CD11c</jats:italic> -Cre × <jats:italic>Tcf4</jats:italic> <jats:sup>–/flox</jats:sup> bone marrow transplanted into <jats:italic>Ldlr</jats:italic> <jats:sup>–/–</jats:sup> mice. Compared with control <jats:italic>Ldlr</jats:italic> <jats:sup>–/–</jats:sup> chimeric mice, <jats:italic>CD11c</jats:italic> -Cre × <jats:italic>Tcf4</jats:italic> <jats:sup>–/flox</jats:sup> mice had reduced atherosclerosis levels. To begin to understand the mechanisms by which pDCs regulate atherosclerosis, we studied chimeric <jats:italic>Ldlr</jats:italic> <jats:sup>–/–</jats:sup> mice with selective MHCII deficiency on pDCs. Significantly, these mice also developed reduced atherosclerosis compared with controls without reductions in pDC numbers or changes in conventional DCs. MHCII-deficient pDCs showed defective stimulation of apolipoprotein B100–specific CD4 <jats:sup>+</jats:sup> T cells in response to native low-density lipoprotein, whereas production of interferon-α was not affected. Finally, the atheroprotective effect of selective MHCII deficiency in pDCs was associated with significant reductions of proatherogenic T cell–derived interferon-γ and lesional T cell infiltration, and was abrogated in CD4 <jats:sup>+</jats:sup> T cell–depleted animals. </jats:p> </jats:sec> <jats:sec> <jats:title>Conclusions—</jats:title> <jats:p>This study supports a proatherogenic role for pDCs in murine atherosclerosis and identifies a critical role for MHCII-restricted antigen presentation by pDCs in driving proatherogenic T cell immunity.</jats:p> </jats:sec>
