- W2056566791 abstract "Pulmonary fibrosis is a progressive illness characterized by interstitial fibrosis. Although the precise mechanism for pulmonary fibrosis is not completely understood, an immune response involving interferon (IFN)-gamma appears to play a role. Therefore, we examined the functional roles of natural killer T (NKT) cells, which produce IFN-gamma and interleukin-4 on activation, in bleomycin-induced pulmonary fibrosis. In NKT cell-deficient mice, pulmonary fibrosis was worse in terms of histology, hydroxyproline levels, and mortality than in control mice. The transforming growth factor (TGF)-beta1 levels were higher in the lung after injecting bleomycin, and blockade of TGF-beta1 by neutralizing monoclonal antibody attenuated the pulmonary fibrosis in CD1d-/- mice. In contrast, the production of IFN-gamma was reduced in lungs from CD1d-/- mice. Moreover, the adoptive transfer of NKT cells into CD1d-/- mice increased IFN-gamma and reduced TGF-beta1 production, attenuating pulmonary fibrosis. An in vitro assay demonstrated that IFN-gamma was involved in suppressing TGF-beta1 production in cells collected from bronchoalveolar lavage. The adoptive transfer of NKT cells from IFN-gamma-/- mice did not reverse pulmonary fibrosis or TGF-beta1 production in lungs of CD1d-/- mice whereas NKT cells from B6 control mice attenuated fibrosis and reduced TGF-beta1 production. In conclusion, IFN-gamma-producing NKT cells play a novel anti-fibrotic role in pulmonary fibrosis by regulating TGF-beta1 production." @default.
