Abstract

AbstractTRAIL, the TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand, induces apoptosis of tumor cells, but not normal cells; the roles of TRAIL in nontransformed tissues are unknown. Using a soluble TRAIL receptor, we examined the consequences of TRAIL blockade in an animal model of multiple sclerosis. We found that chronic TRAIL blockade in mice exacerbated experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis induced by myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein. The exacerbation was evidenced primarily by increases in disease score and degree of inflammation in the CNS. Interestingly, the degree of apoptosis of inflammatory cells in the CNS was not affected by TRAIL blockade, suggesting that TRAIL may not regulate apoptosis of inflammatory cells in experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis. By contrast, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein-specific Th1 and Th2 cell responses were significantly enhanced in animals treated with the soluble TRAIL receptor. Based on these observations, we conclude that unlike TNF, which promotes autoimmune inflammation, TRAIL inhibits autoimmune encephalomyelitis and prevents activation of autoreactive T cells.
