Although Th2-driven immune responses re vitlly importnt in the development of sthm 3,4, in itself Th2 response is not suffiient to indue sthm. Th2-ised llergen sensitiztion n our independently of sthm, whih explins why only out third of individuls with llergi rhinitis (used y Th2 responses in the upper respirtory trt) develop sthm (used y Th2 responses in the lower irwys). Additionl elements tht re intrinsi to the lower respirtory trt my e required for lolizing the Th2 response in the lungs, in proess tht is distint from llergen sensitiztion per se, nd for the full development of sthm. These required speifi lol elements in the respirtory trt hve not een identified ut my involve either struturl responses of the lower respirtory trt to repeted injury (for exmple, irwy remodeling) 6,7 or immune system omponents tht re lolized to the lower respirtory trt.

The filure of NKT ell defiient mie to develop AHR is not due to n inility of these mie to produe type 2 T-helper (Th2) responses euse NKT ell defiient mie tht re immunized suutneously t non-muosl sites produe norml Th2-ised responses.

The filure of Cd1d1 / mie to develop AHR ws not due to defiieny in Th2 responsiveness or to suoptiml stimultion or immuniztion with ntigen, euse previous studies hve shown tht Cd1d1 / mie hve norml Th2 responses 26, nd euse more intensive immuniztion with multiple intrperitonel immuniztions with OVA in lum nd intrnsl hllenges with ntigen did not indue AHR in the Cd1d1 / mie (see Supplementry Fig. 1 online). Indeed, s previously reported 26 the immunized Cd1d1 / mie produed OVA-speifi IgE (Fig. 1), lthough the mounts of IgE oserved in Cd1d1 / mie were less thn those oserved in wild-type ontrol BALB/ mie. The lk of AHR in Cd1d1 / mie ws lso not due to speifi unresponsiveness to OVA, euse sensitiztion with other ntigens, suh s ovine serum lumin (BSA) or Aspergillus fumigtus ntigen, did not indue AHR in Cd1d1 / mie ut did indue severe AHR in BALB/ mie (see Supplementry Fig. 2 online).

These results indite tht the indution of AHR my require V α 14i NKT ells tht produe oth IL-4 nd IL-13, ut not IFN-γ. We next exmined whether V α 14i NKT ells were required for the development of Th2 ells or more speifilly for permitting Th2 ells to drive the development of AHR. We therefore isolted OVA-primed CD4 + T ells from the spleens of wild-type J281 / mie to develop AHR (Fig. 4).

In ddition, our ssessment of AHR in Cd1d1 / nd J281 / mie hs shown tht AHR, rdinl feture of sthm tht does not lwys orrelte with irwy eosinophili 29,3, does not our in mie defiient in NKT ells.

Tken together, however, these studies indite tht Th2-ised immune responses n our in mie defiient in NKT ells, nd tht Th2 ell differentition nd prodution of IgE do not require the presene of V α 14i NKT ells. Beuse Th2 response is not suffiient in itself to indue the full development of sthm nd AHR (tht is, Th2 response in peripherl lymph nodes or in the upper irwys is not lwys ompnied y sthm nd Th2 response in the lower irwys),6, V α 14i NKT ell must regulte dditionl elements in the lower respirtory trt tht re required for the development of AHR.

Reipients were hllenged with OVA nd AHR ws mesured 24 h fter the lst hllenge. The preise mehnisms y whih ntigen dministrtion into the lungs tivtes NKT ells to indue AHR re not ler. We found here tht when trnsferred with wild-type NKT ells, llergen-sensitized CD4 + αβ-tcr T ells from NKT ell defiient mie ould indue AHR in SCID mie, wheres the trnsfer of either ell popultion on its own ould not, inditing tht NKT ells hve the pity to lolize the Th2 response to the lungs nd to indue AHR. Beuse the immuniztion of NKT ell defiient mie with more ggressive protools nd with different ntigens did not indue AHR, we do not think tht NKT ells simply influene the mgnitude of the pulmonry Th2 response, ut rther tht they liense Th2 ells tht enter the pulmonry omprtment to eome ompetent to indue AHR. Although the speifi signls provided y V α 14i NKT ells to the llergen-sensitized CD4 + αβ-tcr T ells re unknown, our model is unique in tht V α 14i NKT ell funtion n e indued without the dministrtion of α-glcer; this ontrsts with most other models of utoimmunity or infetion, in whih the role of NKT ells requires their tivtion y α-glcer 31, In our system, we propose tht ntigen enountered in the lung lters the muosl environment of the respirtory trt, exposing self glyolipid ntigens tht re reognized y self gonist seleted NKT ells 8,37. Although the glyolipid ntigen in our system, whih tivtes NKT ells in vivo when OVA, BSA or Aspergillus ntigen is dministered into the lungs, hs not een identified, gonist-seleted T ells in the muus memrnes re thought to look for ells tht express enhned quntities of self ntigens in response to stress indued y environmentl stimuli.

Our studies therefore suggest tht ntigens other thn α-glcer n indeed tivte V α 14i NKT ells, nd tht there re innte immune mehnisms involving V α 14i NKT ells in the lung tht respond rpidly to inhled ntigens. V α 14i NKT ells indued AHR through mehnisms tht involved the prodution y NKT ells of oth IL-4 nd IL-13, euse NKT ells defiient in IL-4 nd IL-13 prodution ould not reonstitute AHR in J281 / mie. We onfirmed tht NKT ells produe oth IL-4 nd IL-13 (refs. 38, 39) nd showed tht oth IL-4 defiient nd IL-13 defiient NKT ells ould prtilly reonstitute AHR in J281 / mie, suggesting tht IL-4 nd IL-13 possess prtly overlpping funtions in this proess. IFN-γ defiient NKT ells were s effetive s wild-type NKT ells in reonstituting AHR in J281 / mie, inditing tht NKT ell prodution of IFN-γ hs no role in the development of AHR, lthough IFN-γ prodution y NKT ells is importnt in the lerne of Pseudomons eruginos from the lung 31. We suggest tht IL-4 nd IL-13 produed y V α 14i NKT ells potentite the development nd tion of Th2-ised OVA-speifi T ells in the lungs, whih drives the development of sthm. There is no ler onsensus, however, on how NKT ells funtion in the prevention or use of ny disese; preisely how the IL-4 nd IL-13 relesed into the respirtory trt y NKT ells enle Th2 ells to indue AHR is not known.

6 23 Nture Pulishing Group In summry, we hve identified role for V α 14i NKT ells in the regultion of llergen-indued AHR nd hve shown tht AHR does not develop in the sene of V α 14i NKT ells. Our studies indite tht V α 14i NKT ells tht produe IL-4 nd IL-13 tively regulte Th2-ised immune responses in the respirtory trt when ntigen is enountered in the lungs, ut not when ntigen is dministered suutneously t non-muosl sites. Administrtion of nominl ntigen into the lungs seems to tivte NKT ells, whih then liense Th2 ells tht enter the lung to indue AHR through mehnisms tht re independent of α-glcer. Our studies indite tht V α 14i NKT ells in the respirtory trt my hve ruil role in the development of sthm, nd tht therpies trgeted t limiting or ltering NKT ell funtion my seletively restrit the development of AHR nd sthm. Methods Mie nd ntigens. BALB/ wild-type, Il4 / mie were purhsed from The Jkson Lortory (Br Hror, Mine). CD1.1 (Cd1d1 / ) mie 26 (krossed with BALB/) were gift from M.

Il13 / nd Il4 / Il13 / (krossed with BALB/) were gift from A. MKenzie (MRC Lortory of Moleulr Biology, Cmridge, UK) 28,4. We immunized the mie with OVA (ICN, Auror, Ohio), BSA (Sigm, St. Louis, Missouri) nd A. fumigtus ntigen (Ntionl Institutes of Helth, Bethesd, Mrylnd). The Stnford University Committee on Animl Welfre (Administrtion Pnel of Lortory Animl Cre) pproved ll mouse protools used in this study. Adoptive trnsfer. Spleen or NKT ells (3 1 6 ), purified from spleen using α-glcer loded CD1d tetrmers (purity ws out 76% y flow ytometry for tetrmer-positive ells doule-stined with monolonl ntiody ginst TCR β-hin (lone H7-97; Phrmingen, Sn Diego, Cliforni), were doptively trnsferred intrvenously into J281 / or SCID reipients (on BALB/ kground) tht hd een sensitized 8 d erlier y intrperitonel dministrtion of OVA in lum. The donors of spleen ells were wildtype BALB/, Il13 /, Il4 / or Il4 / Il13 / mie. Restimultion of lymph node ells in vitro. Cells isolted from lymph nodes of OVA-primed mie were restimulted in vitro (. 1 ells per well in 96-well plte) with 62. µg/ml of OVA. We olleted the superntnts fter 4 d nd ssyed them for IL-4, IL-13 nd IFN-γ y ELISA. Cytokine ELISAs nd OVA-speifi IgE ssy. ELISAs were done s desried 41. We used the following pirs of monolonl ntiodies for pture nd iotinylted detetion, respetively: R4-6A2 nd XMG1.2 for IFN-γ nd 11B11 nd BVD6-24G2 for IL-4. Regents for deteting mouse IL-13 were purhsed from R&D Systems (Minnepolis, Minnesot). For the OVA-speifi IgE ssy, mie were led nd OVA-speifi IgE ntiodies were mesured in serum using modified OVA-speifi ELISA s desried 41. Identifition of NKT ells. Splenoytes or lymph nodes ells were pre-inuted with monolonl ntiodies ginst Fγ reeptor (2.4G2 ulture superntnt), wshed nd inuted with α-glcer loded CD1d tetrmers or ontrol tetrmers, prepred with phyoerythrin (PE)-streptvidin s desried 42, for 3 min in 1 µl of PBS ontining 1% FCS. The ells were wshed nd nlyzed on FACSCliur flow ytometer (Beton Dikinson, Frnklin Lkes, New Jersey). Indution of AHR nd mesurement of irwy responsiveness. To indue AHR, we sensitized mie with 1 µg of OVA, 1 µg of BSA or 2 µg of A. fumigtus ntigen in lum dministered intrperitonelly. After 8 d, mie were exposed to intrnsl ntigen ( µg/d for OVA nd BSA; 2 µg/d for A. fumigtus) or PBS on 3 onseutive dys, s desried 41,43. AHR responses were ssessed y methholine-indued irflow ostrution in onsious mie pled in whole-ody plethysmogrph (Buxo Eletronis, Troy, New York) s desried 41. In some experiments we ssessed AHR y invsive mesurement of irwy resistne, in whih nesthetized nd trheostomized mie were mehnilly ventilted using modified version of desried method 44. Aerosolized methholine ws dministered for 2 reths in inresing onentrtions (1.2, 2., nd 1 mg/ml of methholine). We ontinuously omputed R L nd C dyn y fitting flow, volume nd pressure to n eqution of motion. In other experiments, nive Cd1d1 / mie were treted with 2 µg of reominnt IL-13 ( gift from the Genetis Institute) intrnslly for 3 onseutive dys in µl of norml sline efore mesurement of AHR. Suutneous immuniztion of mie. J281 / or wild-type BALB/ mie were immunized suutneously with OVA in lum one in the footpds. After 8 d, the drining lymph nodes were olleted, nd the T ells were ultured in vitro with OVA. Superntnts were ssessed for ytokines 4 d lter y ELISA. Colletion nd nlysis of BAL fluid. A lethl dose of phenoritl (4 mg per kg ody weight) ws dministered intrperitonelly to mie. After the trhe ws nnulted, the lungs were lvged 3 times with.3 ml of PBS, nd the fluid ws pooled. We ounted nd nlyzed ells in BAL fluid s desried 41. The reltive numer of different types of leukoyte (lung ell differentil) ws determined from slide preprtions of BAL fluid stined with H&E. Flow ytometry nd fluoresene-tivted ell sorting (FACS) nlysis. Anlytil flow ytometry ws done on FACSn instrument (Beton Dikinson). We olleted ells from lymph nodes, spleen or lungs nd inuted them on ie with CD1d tetrmer nd monolonl ntiody ginst Vβ (PhrMingen) using stndrd proedures. Flow ytometri mesurements of ytokine prodution in NKT ells ws done ording to modified protool 4,46. In rief, we stimulted NKT ells with phorol 12-myristte 13-ette (PMA; 2 ng/ml) nd ionomyin ( ng/ml) for 3 h.
