Apolipoprotein E (apoE), a component of plasma lipoproteins, plays an important, but poorly defined role in sepsis. We have shown that injecting apoE increases septic mortality in a rat model of gram-negative bacterial sepsis, with concomitant hepatic natural killer T (NKT) cell proliferation and activation. The presumed mechanism for this apoE-mediated mortality is that apoE can bind and traffic antigens, presumed to include lipopolysaccharide (LPS), and promote activation of dendritic cells (DC) with subsequent NKT activation and cytokine release. Thus, we sought to prove that LPS was the antigen responsible for the increased NKT activation enhanced by the presence of apoE. We isolated murine marrow-derived DCs, pulsed them with lipid antigen [LPS, and positve controls alpha-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) and isogloboside 3 (iGb3)] with or without apoE, and then co-cultured the DCs with hybridoma NKTs. NKT activation was measured by interleukin-2 (IL-2) supernatant levels using ELISA. LPS at different concentrations was a weak stimulus for NKT activation regardless of apoE presence. When apoE was present, iGb3, an endogenous ligand analog, elicited more than a two-fold increase in IL-2 response when compared to iGb3 alone (p<0.05). These results indicate an endogenous ligand, not LPS, may be responsible for NKT activation. A molecular remnant similar to iGb3 could act as a damage-associated molecular pattern and play a prominent role in animal models of sepsis.
