The V{gamma}4+ pulmonary subset of {gamma}{delta} T cells regulates innate airway responsiveness in the absence of {alpha}{beta} T cells. We now have examined the same subset in a model of allergic airway disease, OVA-sensitized and challenged mice that exhibit Th2 responses, pulmonary inflammation, and airway hyperreactivity (AHR). In sensitized mice, V{gamma}4+ cells preferentially increased in number following airway challenge. Depletion of V{gamma}4+ cells before the challenge substantially increased AHR in these mice, but had no effect on airway responsiveness in normal, nonchallenged mice. Depletion of V{gamma}1+ cells had no effect on AHR, and depletion of all TCR-{delta}+ cells was no more effective than depletion of V{gamma}4+ cells alone. Adoptively transferred pulmonary lymphocytes containing V{gamma}4+ cells inhibited AHR, but lost this ability when V{gamma}4+ cells were depleted, indicating that these cells actively suppress AHR. Eosinophilic infiltration of the lung and airways, or goblet cell hyperplasia, was not affected by depletion of V{gamma}4+ cells, although cytokine-producing {alpha}{beta} T cells in the lung increased. These findings establish V{gamma}4+ {gamma}{delta} T cells as negative regulators of AHR and show that their regulatory effect bypasses much of the allergic inflammatory response coincident with AHR.
