| Abstract | Experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) is mediated by Th1 and Th17 cells. Invariant NKT (iNKT) cells prevent EAE in an IL-4-, IL-10-, and IFN-γ-dependent manner. However, which of the iNKT cell-produced cytokines regulates the Th1 or Th17 response in EAE remains unclear. Wild-type B6 and J 18(-/-) mice were immunized with MOG(35-55) peptide to address this issue. Clinical scores for EAE, IL-17, and IFN-γ transcript levels, and IL-17- or IFN-γ-expressing CD4(+) T cell percentages in the CNS and draining lymph nodes were higher in J 18(-/-) than in B6 mice, but all of these parameters in the CNS were reduced by the adoptive transfer of wild-type or IFN-γ-deficient iNKT cells into the J 18(-/-) mice before immunization. In contrast, adoptive transfer of IL-4- or IL-10-deficient iNKT cells into J 18(-/-) mice decreased IL-17 transcript levels and the percentage of IL-17-expressing CD4(+) T cells in the CNS but did not affect clinical scores, IFN-γ transcript levels, or the percentage of IFN-γ-expressing CD4(+) T cells in the CNS. Taken together, IL-4- and IL-10-producing iNKT cells inhibit the Th1 cell response, but not the Th17 cell response, although wild-type iNKT cells suppress both the Th1 and Th17 responses in the CNS during EAE. Moreover, IFN-γ-producing iNKT cells have a minimal role in the regulation of the Th1 and Th17 responses in EAE. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
