Figure 7. Natural helper cells and NKT cells are required for α-GalCer induced AHR.

Figure 7

(A) Schematic showing the protocol for adoptive transfer of natural helper cells or NKT cells. Change in lung resistance (B) and inflammatory cells in BAL fluid (C) in IL-13−/− recipients (n = 4 per group) given purified natural helper cells (Lin−ST2+ subsets) from WT donors followed by vehicle or α-GalCer challenge for 24 hr. Mac, macrophage; Neu, neutrophils; Eos, eosinophils; Lymph, lymphocytes.
