Abstract
Food components suppressing small intestinal tumorigenesis are not well-defined partly because of the rarity of this tumor type compared to colorectal tumors. Using Apcmin/+ mice, a mouse model for intestinal tumorigenesis, and antigen-free diet, we report here that food antigens serve this function in the small intestine. By depleting Peyer’s patches (PPs), immune inductive sites in the small intestine, we found that PPs have a role in the suppression of small intestinal tumors and are important for the induction of small intestinal T cells by food antigens. On the follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) of PPs, microfold (M) cells pass food antigens from lumen to the dendritic cells to induce T cells. Single-cell RNA-seq (scRNA-seq) analysis of immune cells in PPs revealed a significant impact of food antigens on the induction of the PP T cells and the antigen presentation capacity of dendritic cells. These data demonstrate the role of food antigens in the suppression of small intestinal tumorigenesis by PP-mediated immune cell induction.
期刊介绍:
Frontiers in Immunology is a leading journal in its field, publishing rigorously peer-reviewed research across basic, translational and clinical immunology. This multidisciplinary open-access journal is at the forefront of disseminating and communicating scientific knowledge and impactful discoveries to researchers, academics, clinicians and the public worldwide.
Frontiers in Immunology is the official Journal of the International Union of Immunological Societies (IUIS). Encompassing the entire field of Immunology, this journal welcomes papers that investigate basic mechanisms of immune system development and function, with a particular emphasis given to the description of the clinical and immunological phenotype of human immune disorders, and on the definition of their molecular basis.
