The aryl hydrocarbon receptor partially controls tissue adaptaion of intestinal eosinophils in mice
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: To determine how AHR affects eosinophil adaptation to the intestinal environment, eosinophils were sorted from the small intestine from WT, Ahr knockout and Ahrr knockout mice and compared by RNA sequencing. The canonical AHR pathway was active in murine intestinal eosinophils and limited eosinophil survival in the small intestine in a cell-intrinsic manner. Eosinophils from AHR-deficient mice retained increased expression of pathways associated with bone marrow eosinophils and failed to fully express the intestinal gene expression program, including extracellular matrix organization and cell junction pathways. Thus, our study demonstrates that the response to environmental triggers via AHR shapes tissue adaptation of eosinophils in the small intestine.
