Project description:Microbial transformation of bile acids affects intestinal immune homeostasis but its impact on inflammatory pathologies remains largely unknown. Using a mouse model of graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), we found that T cell-driven inflammation decreased the abundance of microbiome-encoded bile salt hydrolase (BSH) genes and reduced the levels of unconjugated and microbe-derived bile acids. Several microbe-derived bile acids attenuated farnesoid X receptor (FXR) activation, suggesting that loss of these metabolites during inflammation may increase FXR activity and exacerbate the course of disease. Indeed, mortality increased with pharmacological activation of FXR and decreased with its genetic ablation in donor T cells during mouse GVHD. Furthermore, patients with GVHD after allogeneic hematopoietic cell transplantation showed similar loss of BSH and the associated reduction in unconjugated and microbe-derived bile acids. Additionally, the FXR antagonist ursodeoxycholic acid reduced the proliferation of human T cells and was associated with a lower risk of GVHD-related mortality in patients. We propose that dysbiosis and loss of microbe-derived bile acids during inflammation may be an important mechanism to amplify T cell-mediated diseases.

Project description:RelA and Stat3, often collaboratively, induce the synthesis of an array of factors,which orchestrate multiorgan crosstalk in health and diseases. RelA and Stat3 functions in theintestinal epithelial cells are known to tune colon inflammation. If their hepatic activity also impacts inflammation in the gut remains unclear. Here, we reveal that the combined deficiency of RelA and Stat3 specifically in hepatocytes ameliorates DSS-induced experimental colitis. Our transcriptomics analyses identified that they activated a hepatic gene program, which directed the expression of alternate bile synthesis pathway genes. Our metabolomics studies substantiated that an absence of RelA and Stat3 in hepatocytes led to a reduced accumulation of inflammatory bile acids, particularly chenodeoxycholic acid, not only in the liver but also in the gut. Indeed, knockout mice displayed a lessened expression of only in the liver but also in the gut. Indeed, knockout mice displayed a lessened expression of inflammatory cytokines and a diminished recruitment of inflammatory cells in the gut upon colitogenic insults; on the other hand, supplementing chenodeoxycholic acid was sufficient to restore the colitogenic sensitivity in these mice. In sum, we suggest that the engagement of inflammatory transcription factors in distant tissues promotes intestinal pathologies via metabolic wiring.

Project description:Host NLRP6 regulates innate immune responses and gastrointestinal (GI) homeostasis. It plays a protective role in pathogenic processes such as intestinal colitis and tumorigenesis in a microbiome dependent manner. Host innate immunity and changes in microbial diversity also play a role in the severity of allo-immune-mediated gastrointestinal pathogenic process, namely graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), the principal toxicity after allogeneic bone marrow transplantation (allo-BMT). Herein, we examined the role of NLRP6 in multiple murine models of allo-BMT. In contrast to its role in intestinal colitis, host NLRP6 aggravated GI GVHD. NLRP6-deficient animals showed improved intestinal barrier function, increased levels of tissue repair associated proteins and preserved Goblet and Paneth cell numbers in the GI tract after allo-BMT. The impact of host NLRP6 deficiency in mitigating GVHD was observed regardless of co-housing, antibiotic treatment, or colonizing littermate germ free wild type (WT) and NLRP6 deficient hosts with fecal microbial transplantation from SPF WT and Nlrp6-/- animals. Chimera studies were performed to assess the role of NLRP6 expression on host hematopoietic and non-hematopoietic cells. The allogeneic [B6Ly5.2→Nlrp6-/-] animals demonstrated significantly improved survival compared to the allogeneic [B6Ly5.2→B6] animals, demonstrating that the absence of NLRP6 in host non-hematopoietic cells is crucial for the protection against GVHD, but did not alter the therapeutic graft-versus-tumor effects after BMT. Our results unveil a novel role for NLRP6 and demonstrate a pathogenic role in GVHD that is independent of variations in its intestinal microbiome in contrast to its well-appreciated microbiome-dependent protective role in intestinal colitis and tumorigenesis.

Project description:Cholangiocyte organoids provide a powerful tool for characterizing bile duct epithelium and expanding cholangiocytes for tissue engineering purposes. However, this involves invasively obtained tissue-biopsies via surgery which is not preferential and limits the patient-specific capacities of these cultures. To overcome this, organoid culture were initiated from minimal invasive bile-samples obtained during routine clinical procedures. Characterization revealed that these bile-cholangiocyte organoids originate from the extrahepatic bile duct and are capable to repopulate human extrahepatic bile duct scaffolds. With this, bile duct tissue engineering as well as personalized disease modelling is in sight.
