Depletion of NKT cells attenuates liver injury induced by CpG in HBs-Tg mice. HBs-Tg mice were treated with control IgG, anti-NK1.1 mAb (PK136) or anti-ASGM1 24 h before CpG injection. Blood and liver tissue were collected 24 h after CpG injection. Liver injury was evaluated by (a) serum ALT and (b) H&E staining of liver tissue (original magnification, × 200). Data are representative of three independent experiments and are shown as the mean±s.e.m. (n=6 per group). **P<0.001. ALT, alanine aminotransferase; HBs-Tg, hepatitis B surface antigen transgenic; H&E, hematoxylin and eosin; IgG, immunoglobulin G; mAb, monoclonal antibody; NKT, natural killer T; NS, not significantly different.
