Figure Lengend Snippet: IL-12 and IL-23 polarized CD4+ T cells are both capable of mediating ON. (A-C) C57BL/6 mice were immunized with MOG35-55 emulsified in CFA. Ten to fourteen days later, draining lymph node cells were harvested and cultured for 96 hours with MOG35-55 and either recombinant IL-12 or IL-23 to generate Th1 and Th17 cells, respectively. (A) Intracellular staining and flow cytometric analysis of cultured cells at 96 hours, gating on the CD3+CD4+ population. (B, C) Following culture, CD4+ T cells were transferred into naïve syngenic recipients. Mice in each group were euthanized at day 9 post-transfer, the day after clinical EAE onset. Mononuclear cells isolated from optic nerves (ON) and spinal cords (SC) were assessed for CD4+ T cell cytokine production (B) and the percent of CD4+ T cells and CD11b+ myeloid cells among CD45+ leukocytes (C) by flow cytometry. Data are representative of three independent experiments with at least 3 mice per group.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Axonopathy is an early feature of both Th1- and Th17-mediated ON. (A–D) Th1 and Th17 adoptive transfer recipients were injected i.o. with fluorochrome-conjugated cholera toxin-B (red) at onset of clinical EAE. Optic nerves were harvested 24 hours later. Longitudinal sections were stained for the pan-leukocyte marker, CD45 (green) to demarcate areas of inflammation. (C) Confocal microscopy revealed a swelling at the tip of a transected axon (asterisk). (D) The frequency of axonal swellings was compared with the intensity of CD45 staining and there was no significant difference. (E–G) Cross- sections of optic nerves harvested from mice with Th17- (E) and Th1- (F) mediated ON were stained for unphosphorylated neurofilament-H (SMI-32, green; DAPI, blue; bars=50 μm). Magnified views of the insets are shown in adjacent panels (bars=25 μm). (G) SMI-32 staining of a healthy nerve (bar= 50 μm). (H–J) Representative cross-sections of optic nerves obtained from mice with Th17- (H) or Th1-(I) mediated ON, or from naïve mice (J), were stained with toludine blue. Broken lines delineate representative areas with normal-appearing axons, asteriscs indicate swollen axons and arrowheads point to empty myelin sheaths (bars= 25 μm).

Figure Lengend Snippet: Axon loss and faulty nerve conduction occur in both Th1- and Th17-mediated ON. (A–D) Optic nerves harvested immediately before the peak of EAE were stained with antibodies against SMI32 (green) and CD45 (red). Representative cross-sections of nerves from mice with Th17- (A) and Th1- (B) mediated ON, as well as from a naïve mouse (B), are shown (bars = 100 μm and 25 μm, inset) and quantified (D). (E) Brn3a+ RGCs were counted in retinas harvested from naïve mice, and from ON mice at serial time points post-transfer (t-test). (F) Representative traces of CAPs of optic nerves acutely isolated from naïve and ON mice. CAP velocities (G, I) and amplitudes (H, J) were averaged over seven to twelve nerves per group.
