Interleukin 17 B is protective in colitis by regulating colonic mononuclear phagocytes in mice

ABSTRACT: IL17B protected mice from dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis since IL17B deficiency resulted in severe DSS-induced colitis with exaggerated weight loss, shorter colon length, and elevated proinflammatory cytokine production in colon. For mechanism study, we use single cell transcriptional analyses of CD45+ immune cells in colonic lamina propria to detect the effect of IL-17B on colon LP immune cells in colitis. We found increased inflammatory macrophages infiltration in colon lamina propria after colitis induction expressing inflammatory cytokines such as S100a9, S100a8, Tnf, which was confirmed by real-time PCR and flow cytometry. Reconstitute of Il17b-/- mice with recombinant IL17B alleviated the severity of DSS-induced colitis. IL17B treatment also inhibited LPS-induced inflammation in bone marrow derived macrophage and in mice. These data indicate that IL17B exerting its inhibitory role in inflammation by regulating inflammatory macrophage response. In view of the protective effect of IL17B on DSS-induced colitis and LPS-induced inflammation, IL17B might represent a novel potential therapeutic approach to treat the inflammation.

Project description:Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a condition characterized by severe intestinal inflammation and immune cell activation. The severity of the disease can be mitigated by compounds which activate peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPAR gamma), a receptor present widely in tissues involved in IBD pathogenesis. Our objective was to assess the affect of macrophage-specific deficiency of PPAR gamma on peripheral and colonic immune populations and colonic gene expression in experimental IBD. Macrophage-specific PPAR gamma-deficient mice (PPAR gamma flfl Lysozyme M Cre+) and control (PPAR gamma flfl Lysozyme M Cre-) littermates were treated with 2.5% dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) for 7 days. Disease activity was recorded daily and immune cell populations in the blood, spleen, mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN), and lamina propria were examined by flow cytometry. Colonic gene expression was assessed by real time PCR and microarray analyses. Our findings show that macrophage PPAR r-deficiency significantly exacerbates DSS inflammation. CD4+CD25+FoxP3+ regulatory T cells (T-regs) were significantly reduced in Cre+ mice, and MLN macrophages and CD40 expression were enhanced. There were significant differences in the number colonic macrophages between Cre+ and Cre- mice, but those from Cre+ mice expressed more CD40, Ly6C, and TLR-4. PPAR r-deficiency also increased the percent of CD8+ T cells in the lamina propria and enhanced colonic interferon gamma expression. Our findings indicate that macrophage PPAR gamma deficiency augments the severity of DSS colitis by reducing peripheral T-regs and increasing colonic macrophage activation and T cell inflammation. RNA from 3 PPAR gamma-deficient mice (PPAR gamma flfl; Lysozyme M Cre+) and 3 control (PPAR gamma flfl; Lysozyme M Cre-) littermates was processed and labeled according to the standard target labeling protocols. The samples were hybridized, stained, and scanned per standard Affymetrix protocols at the Virginia Bioinformatics Institute (VBI) core laboratory on Mouse 430 2.0 expression arrays (Affymetrix Inc., Santa Clara, CA).
