Airway hyperreactivity (AHR), eosinophilic inflammation with a Th2-type cytokine profile, and specific Th2-mediated IgE production characterize allergic asthma. In this paper, we show that OVA-immunized J
18-/- mice, which are exclusively deficient in the invariant V
14+ (iV
14), CD1d-restricted NKT cells, exhibit impaired AHR and airway eosinophilia, decreased IL-4 and IL-5 production in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid, and reduced OVA-specific IgE compared with wild-type (WT) littermates. Adoptive transfer of WT iV
14 NKT cells fully reconstitutes the capacity of J
18-/- mice to develop allergic asthma. Also, specific tetramer staining shows that OVA-immunized WT mice have activated (CD69+) iV
14 NKT cells. Importantly, anti-CD1d mAb treatment blocked the ability of iV
14 T cells to amplify eosinophil recruitment to airways, and both Th2 cytokine and IgE production following OVA challenge. In conclusion, these findings clearly demonstrate that iV
14 NKT cells are required to participate in allergen-induced Th2 airway inflammation through a CD1d-dependent mechanism.
