In Crohn's disease (CD), the mechanisms underlying the regulation by granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) of mucosal barrier function in the ileum are unclear. We analyzed the molecular mechanisms underlying the regulation by GM-CSF of the mucosal barrier function.
We examined the role of GM-CSF in the intestinal barrier function in CD at the molecular-, cellular-, and animal-model levels.
Macrophages directly secreted GM-CSF, promoting intestinal epithelial proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis, which maintained intestinal barrier function. Macrophages were absent in NSAID-induced ileitis, causing GM-CSF deficiency, increasing the apoptosis rate, decreasing the proliferation rate, increasing inter- and paracellular permeabilities, decreasing the TJP levels, and reducing the numbers of mesenteric lymph nodes, memory T cells, and regulatory T cells in Csf1 transgenic mice.
GM-CSF is required for the maintenance of intestinal barrier function. Macrophages directly secrete GM-CSF, promoting intestinal epithelial proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis.
在克罗恩病(CD)中,粒细胞-巨噬细胞集落刺激因子(GM-CSF)调节回肠黏膜屏障功能的机制尚不清楚。我们分析了 GM-CSF 调节黏膜屏障功能的分子机制。
我们从分子、细胞和动物模型水平研究了 GM-CSF 在 CD 肠道屏障功能中的作用。
巨噬细胞直接分泌 GM-CSF,促进肠上皮细胞增殖并抑制凋亡,从而维持肠道屏障功能。非甾体类抗炎药(NSAID)诱导的回肠炎中巨噬细胞缺失导致 GM-CSF 缺乏,增加了细胞凋亡率,降低了细胞增殖率,增加了细胞间和旁细胞通透性,降低了紧密连接蛋白(TJP)水平,并减少了 Csf1 转基因小鼠肠系膜淋巴结、记忆 T 细胞和调节性 T 细胞的数量。
GM-CSF 是维持肠道屏障功能所必需的。巨噬细胞直接分泌 GM-CSF,促进肠上皮细胞增殖并抑制凋亡。
