OCH, a synthetic analog of alpha-galactosylceramide with a truncated sphingosine chain, stimulates natural killer T (NKT) cells to produce predominantly Th2 cytokines. Thus, OCH may be a potential agent for the treatment of Th1-mediated autoimmune diseases. This study was designed to evaluate the protective effects of OCH on collagen-induced arthritis (CIA) in mice.
