Project description:The recovery of the intestinal epithelial barrier is the goal for curing various intestinal injurious diseases, especially IBD. However, there are limited therapeutics for restoring intestinal epithelial barrier function in IBD. The stemness of intestinal stem cells (ISCs) can differentiate into various mature intestinal epithelial cells, thus playing a key role in the rapid regeneration of the intestinal epithelium. IL-22 secreted by CD4+ T cells and ILC3 cells was reported to maintain the stemness of ISCs. Our previous study found that L-fucose significantly ameliorated DSS-induced colonic inflammation and intestinal epithelial injury. In this study, we discovered enhanced ISC regeneration and increased intestinal IL-22 secretion and its related transcription factor AHR in colitis mice after L-fucose treatment. Further studies showed that L-fucose promoted IL-22 release from CD4+ T cells and intestinal lamina propria monocytes (LPMCs) via activation of nuclear AHR. The coculture system of LPMCs and intestinal organoids demonstrated that L-fucose stimulated the proliferation of ISCs through an indirect manner of IL-22 from LPMCs via the IL-22R-p-STAT3 pathway, and restored TNF-α-induced organoid damage via IL-22-IL-22R signaling. These results revealed that L-fucose helped to heal the epithelial barrier by accelerating ISC proliferation, probably through the AHR/IL-22 pathway of LPMCs, which provides a novel therapy for IBD in the clinic.

Project description:Lactic acid bacteria (LAB), a major commensal bacterium in the small intestine, are well known beneficial bacteria which promote establishment of gut-centric immunity, such as anti-inflammation and anti-infection. In this report, we show that a LAB strain Lactococcus lactis subsp. Cremoris C60 possess an ability to activate antigen presenting cells, such as dendritic cells (DCs), and intestinal T cells which possibly support to maintain healthy intestinal immunological environment in aging process. We found that CD4+ T cells in the small intestine are dramatically decreased in aged Interleukin-18 knock out (IL-18KO) mice, associated with the impairment of IFN-γ production in the CD4+ T cells, especially in small intestinal lamina propria (LP). Surprisingly, heat killed-C60 (HK-C60) diet completely recovered the CD4+ T cells population and activity in SI-LP and over activated the population in Peyer's patches (PPs) of IL-18KO mice. The HK-C60 diet was effective approach not only to restore the number of cells, but also to recover IFN-γ production in the CD4+ T cell population in the small intestine of IL-18-deficient mice. As a possible cause in the age-associated impairment of CD4+ T cells activity in IL-18KO mice, we found that the immunological activity was downregulated in the IL-18-deficient DCs. The cytokines production and cellular activation markers expression were downregulated in the IL-18-deficient bone marrow derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) at the basal level, however, both activities were highly upregulated in HK-C60 stimulation as compared to those of WT cells. Antigen uptake was also attenuated in the IL-18-deficient BMDCs, and it was significantly enhanced in the cells as compared to WT cells in HK-60 stimulation. An in vitro antigen presentation assay showed that IFN-γ production in the CD4+ T cells was significantly enhanced in the culture of IL-18-deficient BMDCs compared with WT cells in the presence of HK-C60. Thus, we conclude that HK-C60 diet possesses an ability to restore T cells impairment in the small intestine of IL-18-deficient environment. In addition, the positive effect is based on the immunological modification of DCs function which directory influences into the promotion of effector CD4+ T cells generation in the small intestine.

Project description:Epithelial Hedgehog (Hh) ligands regulate several aspects of fetal intestinal organogenesis, and emerging data implicate the Hh pathway in inflammatory signaling in the adult colon. Here, we investigated the effects of chronic Hh inhibition in vivo and profiled molecular pathways acutely modulated by Hh signaling in the intestinal mesenchyme.The progression of inflammatory disease was characterized in a bi-transgenic mouse model of chronic Hh inhibition (VFHhip). In parallel, microarray and bioinformatic analyses (Gene Ontology terms overrepresentation analysis, hierarchical clustering, and MeSH term filtration) were performed on isolated cultured intestinal mesenchyme acutely exposed to Hh ligand.Six- to 10-month-old VFHhip animals exhibited villus smooth muscle loss and subsequent villus atrophy. Areas of villus loss became complicated by spontaneous inflammation and VFHhip animals succumbed to wasting and death. Phenotypic similarities were noted between the VFHhip phenotype and human inflammatory disorders, especially human celiac disease. Microarray analysis revealed that inflammatory pathways were acutely activated in intestinal mesenchyme cultured in the absence of epithelium, and the addition of Hh ligand alone was sufficient to largely reverse this inflammatory response within 24 hours.Hh ligand is a previously unrecognized anti-inflammatory epithelial modulator of the mesenchymal inflammatory milieu. Acute modulation of Hh signals results in changes in inflammatory pathways in intestinal mesenchyme, while chronic inhibition of Hh signaling in adult animals leads to spontaneous intestinal inflammation and death. Regulation of epithelial Hh signaling may be an important mechanism to modulate tolerogenic versus proinflammatory signaling in the small intestine.

Project description:Background/aimsExtracellular vesicles (EVs) are secreted from various types of cells and have specific functions related to their origin. EVs are observed in the small intestinal lamina propria (lpEVs), but their function remains unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of lpEVs.MethodsLpEVs were isolated from antigen (ovalbumin [OVA])-fed mice (lpEVs/OVA), and administrated to the naïve mice for 5 days before induction of lung inflammation. Afterwards, the mice were sensitized and challenged with OVA to evaluate the role of lpEVs/OVA in the regulation of immune tolerance.ResultsThe isolated lpEVs/OVA were sphere-shaped, bi-layered vesicles of approximately 50 to 100 nm in size. The vesicles expressed CD81, A33 antigen, and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II on the surface. When administrated to naïve mice, the lpEVs/OVA migrated to the spleen. Intraperitoneal lpEVs/OVA administration to naïve mice decreased the immune response against sensitized antigen in a CD4+FoxP3+T cell-dependent manner.ConclusionEVs are actively secreted from small intestinal epithelial cells to deliver information about orally administered antigens to immune cells, which will facilitate the modulation of the immune response by acting as an intercellular communicasome.

Project description:Multiple mechanisms exist in regulation of host responses to massive challenges from microbiota to maintain immune homeostasis in the intestines. Among these is the enriched Th17 cells in the intestines, which regulates intestinal homeostasis through induction of antimicrobial peptides and secretory IgA among others. However, the means by which Th17 cells develop in response to microbiota is still not completely understood. Although both TLR5 and CD172α(+) lamina propria dendritic cells (LPDC) have been shown to promote Th17 cell development, it is still unclear whether TLR5 mediates the CD172α(+)LPDC induction of Th17 cells. By using a microbiota antigen-specific T cell reporter mouse system, we demonstrated that microbiota antigen-specific T cells developed into Th17 cells in the intestinal LP, but not in the spleen when transferred into TCRβxδ(-/-) mice. LPDCs expressed high levels of TLR5, and most CD172α(+)LPDCs also co-expressed TLR5. LPDCs produced high levels of IL-23, IL-6 and TGFβ when stimulated with commensal flagellin and promoted Th17 cell development when cultured with full-length CBir1 flagellin but not CBir1 peptide. Wild-type CD172α(+), but not CD172α(-), LPDCs induced Th17 cells, whereas TLR5-deficient LPDC did not induce Th17 cells. Our data thereby demonstrated that TLR5 mediates CD172α(+)LPDC induction of Th17 cells in the intestines.

Project description:Oral infection of C57BL/6 mice with Toxoplasma gondii triggers severe necrosis in the ileum within 7-10 days of infection. Lesion development is mediated by Th-1 cytokines, CD4+ T cells, and subepithelial bacterial translocation. As such, these features share similarity to Crohn's disease. Recently, we uncovered a role for intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) in mediating pathology after Toxoplasma infection. We show here that ?? and not ?? T-cell IELs mediate intestinal damage. By adoptive transfer of mucosal T cells into naive Rag1?/? mice, we demonstrate that IELs do not function alone to cause inflammatory lesions, but act with CD4+ T lymphocytes from the lamina propria (LP). Furthermore, recipient mice pretreated with broad-spectrum antibiotics to eliminate intestinal flora resisted intestinal disease after transfer of IELs and LP lymphocytes. Our data provide valuable new insights into the mechanisms of intestinal inflammation, findings that have important implications for understanding human inflammatory bowel disease.

Project description:Mice with an intestinal epithelial specific knockout of LSD1 have changes in the intestinal epithelium including loss of Paneth and Goblet cells along with a general status of epithelial immaturity. To assess the influence of these epithelial specific changes on the mucosal immune system we performed a scRNAseq on CD45+ immune cells from the small intestine of mice with an epithelial specific LSD1 deletion (Villin-Cre+; Lsd1f/f) and wild type mice (Villin-Cre -; Lsd1f/f). To rule out a possible influence of the bacterial microbiome in the observed changes in CD45+ cell types we performed the same experiment in mice treated with antibiotics. These data allowed us to pinpoint changes in the cell populations of the mucosal immune system upon loss of LSD1 in the intestinal epithelium such as IgA producing cells and ILCs.
