Abstract
Microbiota and feeding modes influence the susceptibility of premature newborns to necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) through mechanisms that remain unknown. Here, we show that microbiota colonization facilitated by breastmilk feeding promotes NOD-like receptor family CARD domain containing 5 (Nlrc5) gene expression in mouse intestinal epithelial cells (IECs). Notably, inducible knockout of the Nlrc5 gene in IECs predisposes neonatal mice to NEC-like injury in the small intestine upon viral inflammation in an NK1.1+ cell-dependent manner. By contrast, formula feeding enhances neonatal gut colonization with environment-derived tilivalline-producing Klebsiella spp. Remarkably, tilivalline disrupts microbiota-activated STAT1 signaling that controls Nlrc5 gene expression in IECs through a PPAR-γ-mediated mechanism. Consequently, this dysregulation hinders the resistance of neonatal intestinal epithelium to self-NK1.1+ cell cytotoxicity upon virus infection/colonization, promoting NEC development. Together, we discover the underappreciated role of intestinal microbiota colonization in shaping a disease tolerance program to viral inflammation and elucidate the mechanisms impacting NEC development in neonates.
期刊介绍:
Cell Host & Microbe is a scientific journal that was launched in March 2007. The journal aims to provide a platform for scientists to exchange ideas and concepts related to the study of microbes and their interaction with host organisms at a molecular, cellular, and immune level. It publishes novel findings on a wide range of microorganisms including bacteria, fungi, parasites, and viruses. The journal focuses on the interface between the microbe and its host, whether the host is a vertebrate, invertebrate, or plant, and whether the microbe is pathogenic, non-pathogenic, or commensal. The integrated study of microbes and their interactions with each other, their host, and the cellular environment they inhabit is a unifying theme of the journal. The published work in Cell Host & Microbe is expected to be of exceptional significance within its field and also of interest to researchers in other areas. In addition to primary research articles, the journal features expert analysis, commentary, and reviews on current topics of interest in the field.
