Human V{alpha}24+ NKT cells with an invariant TCR (V{alpha}24-J{alpha}Q) have been shown to be specifically activated by synthetic glycolipids such as {alpha}-galactosylceramide and {alpha}-glucosylceramide in a CD1d-restricted and V{alpha}24 TCR-mediated manner. We recently characterized V{alpha}24+ CD4- CD8- double negative (DN) NKT cells using {alpha}-galactosylceramide-pulsed monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Here, we compare V{alpha}24+ CD4+ NKT cells with human V{alpha}24+ DN NKT cells from the same donor using {alpha}-galactosylceramide-pulsed monocyte-derived dendritic cells. Human V{alpha}24+ CD4+ NKT cells were phenotypically and functionally similar to the human V{alpha}24+ DN NKT cells characterized previously. Both of them use V{alpha}24-J{alpha}Q-Vß11 TCR and express CD161 (NKR-P1A), but not the other NK receptors tested so far. They also produce cytokines such as IL-4 and IFN-{gamma}, and, in regard to IL-4 production, V{alpha}24+ CD4+ NKT cells produce more IL-4 than V{alpha}24+ DN NKT cells. The cells exhibit marked cytotoxic activity against the U937 tumor cell line, but not against the NK target cell line, K562. Although at least some of the factors responsible for the stimulation of V{alpha}24+ NKT cells have been clarified, little is known regarding the killing phase of these cells. Here we show that the cytotoxic activity of V{alpha}24+ NKT cells against U937 cells is mediated mainly through the perforin pathway and that ICAM-1/LFA-1 as well as CD44/hyaluronic acid interactions are important for the effector phase of V{alpha}24+ NKT cell-mediated cytotoxicity against U937 cells.
