Supplementation with activated NKT cells reduced collagen deposition in isolated human pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (hPASMCs) and in ex vivo precision-cut lung slices of patients with end-stage PF-PH. Coculture with activated NKT cells induced STAT1 signaling in hPASMCs. Secretome analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells identified CXCL9 and CXCL10 as indicators of NKT cell activation. Pharmacologically, CXCL9, but not CXCL10, potently inhibited collagen deposition in hPASMCs via the chemokine receptor CXCR3. Conclus
