Although deficiencies in the NKT cell population have been
observed in multiple sclerosis and mouse strains susceptible to
experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE), little is known about
the function of these cells in CNS autoimmunity. In this work we report
that TCR V
14-J
281 transgenic nonobese diabetic mice, which are
enriched in CD1d-restricted NKT cells, are protected from EAE. The
protection is associated with a striking inhibition of Ag-specific
IFN-
production in the spleen, implying modulation of the
encephalitogenic Th1 response. This modulation is independent of IL-4
because IL-4-deficient V
14-J
281 mice are still protected against
EAE and independent of NKT cell-driven Th1 to Th2 deviation,
because no increased autoantigen-specific Th2 response was
observed in immunized V
14-J
281 transgenic mice. Our findings
indicate that enrichment and/or stimulation of CD1d-dependent NKT cells
may be used as a novel strategy to treat CNS
autoimmunity.
