- W3100403828 abstract "Background Type I NK T cells, also known as iNKT cells, can recognize self or microbial lipids presented through CD1d molecules on antigen-presenting cells. Activation of NKT cells induces inflammatory cytokines and help in mounting anti-tumor immunity. How does stimulation of iNKT cells in vivo alter the tumor microenvironment is not clearly understood. Methods C57BL/6 mice were given a subcutaneous injection of B16F10 melanoma cell line (1 X 10 6 cells). Mice were given intraperitoneal injection of alpha-galactosylceramide (a-GalCer, a ligand for iNKT cells; 2 microgram/injection) on day +1, +5, +10, +15 and +20. NK cells, Gr1 + cells and F4/80 + macrophages in mice were depleted using cell-specific antibodies. The growth of tumors was monitored, and immune cells were characterized using flow cytometry and immunofluorescence staining. Student’s t-test and one-way ANOVA were used for statistical analysis. Results Our results showed that intratumoral NK T cells had significantly low expression of CD25, CD69, CD122, and IFN-gamma receptor molecules and produced lower inflammatory cytokines (IFN-gamma, TNF-alpha, and GM-CSF) as compared to splenic NK T cells. The soluble factor produced by B16F10 cells reduces the expression of these cytokines and cytokine receptors in vitro on the NK T cells purified from the spleen. Treatment of tumor-bearing mice with a-GalCer significantly increased the IFN-gamma-producing NK T cells, CD8 + T cells, and effector Th1 cells in secondary lymphoid organs, and tumors, also significantly reduced the tumor growth. Furthermore, a-GalCer treatment significantly increased the iNOS + CD206 - M1-macrophages and reduced the iNOS - CD206 + M2-macrophages in the spleen and tumor. The depletion of F4/80 + macrophages prevented the a-GalCer-induced reduction of tumor growth. Conclusions Our results showed that tumor produced soluble factors alter the phenotype of NK T cells. Activation of NKT cells with a-GalCer promotes the M1-macrophages, and effector CD8 + T cells, Th1 cells in the secondary lymphoid organs and tumor microenvironment. This finding suggests that activation of NKT cells may provide an effective anti-tumor response.
