CRIg+ macrophages deficiency enhanced inflammation damage in IBD due to gut extracellular vesicles containing microbial DNA.

ABSTRACT: Gut microbiota-derived extracellular vesicles (mEVs) are reported to regulate inflammatory response by delivering bacterial products into host cells. The complement receptor of the immunoglobulin superfamily macrophages (CRIg+ Mφ) could clear invading bacteria and their derivatives. Here, we investigate the role of CRIg+ Mφ and the mechanism by which mEVs regulate intestinal inflammation. We found that it is exacerbated in IBD patients and colitis mice by mEVs' leakage from disturbed gut microbiota, enriching microbial DNA in the intestinal mucosa. CRIg+ Mφ significantly decrease in IBD patients, allowing the spread of mEVs into the mucosa. The microbial DNA within mEVs is the key trigger for inflammation and barrier function damage. The cGAS/STING pathway is crucial in mEVs-mediated infla
