OX40 ligand (OX40L) expressed on APCs, and its receptor, OX40
present on activated T cells, are members of the TNF/TNFR family,
respectively, and have been located at the sites of inflammatory
conditions. We have observed in OX40L-deficient mice
(OX40L-/-) an impaired APC capacity and in our recently
constructed transgenic mice expressing OX40L (OX40L-Tg), a markedly
enhanced T cell response to protein Ags. Using these mice, we
demonstrate here the critical involvement of the OX40L-OX40 interaction
during the T cell priming events in the occurrence of experimental
autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE). In OX40L-/- mice,
abortive T cell priming greatly reduced the clinical manifestations of
actively induced EAE, coupled with a reduction in IFN-
, IL-2, and
IL-6 production in vitro. Adoptive transfer experiments however
revealed an efficient transfer of disease to OX40L-/-
mice using wild-type donor T cells, indicating an intact capacity of
OX40L-/- mice to initiate effector responses. On the
other hand, OX40L-/- donor T cells failed to transfer
disease to wild-type recipient mice. Furthermore, OX40L-Tg mice
developed a greater severity of EAE despite a delayed onset, while both
OX40L-Tg/CD28-/- and OX40L-Tg/CD40-/- mice
failed to develop EAE demonstrating a requisite for these molecules.
These findings indicate a pivotal role played by OX40L in the
pathogenesis of EAE.
