Abstract
Tissue damage and repair are hallmarks of inflammation. Despite a wealth of information on the mechanisms that govern tissue damage, mechanistic insight into how inflammation affects repair is lacking. Here, we investigated how interferons influence tissue repair after damage to the intestinal mucosa. We found that type III, not type I or type II, interferons delay epithelial cell regeneration by inducing the upregulation of Z-DNA-binding protein 1 (ZBP1). Z-nucleic acids formed following intestinal damage are sensed by ZBP1, leading to caspase-8 activation and the cleavage of gasdermin C (GSDMC). Cleaved GSDMC drives epithelial cell death by pyroptosis and delays repair of the large or small intestine after colitis or irradiation, respectively. The type III interferon/ZBP1/caspase-8/GSDMC axis is also active in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Our findings highlight the capacity of type III interferons to delay gut repair, which has implications for IBD patients or individuals exposed to radiation therapies.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Chemical Theory and Computation invites new and original contributions with the understanding that, if accepted, they will not be published elsewhere. Papers reporting new theories, methodology, and/or important applications in quantum electronic structure, molecular dynamics, and statistical mechanics are appropriate for submission to this Journal. Specific topics include advances in or applications of ab initio quantum mechanics, density functional theory, design and properties of new materials, surface science, Monte Carlo simulations, solvation models, QM/MM calculations, biomolecular structure prediction, and molecular dynamics in the broadest sense including gas-phase dynamics, ab initio dynamics, biomolecular dynamics, and protein folding. The Journal does not consider papers that are straightforward applications of known methods including DFT and molecular dynamics. The Journal favors submissions that include advances in theory or methodology with applications to compelling problems.
