Abstract
Aging manifests a decline of immune function, induces microbiome dysbiosis, drives organ inflammation, and impedes the resolution of inflammation. However, the mechanisms underlying age-related intestinal inflammation remain poorly described. Here, we find that the resolution of T cell-initiated intestinal inflammation is impaired with aging. This impairment is mediated by disrupting the immune-microbiota interplay, controlled by intestinal eicosanoid metabolism. Pharmacologically inhibiting eicosanoid biosynthesis, blocking the prostaglandin E receptor subtype 4 (EP4), or genetically ablating EP4 diminishes age-related impairment of intestinal inflammation resolution. Mechanistically, mononuclear phagocyte-intrinsic eicosanoid-EP4 signaling impedes the resolution of intestinal inflammation through fostering gut microbial dysbiosis and, more importantly, interrupting segmented filamentous bacterial adhesion to the intestinal epithelium. Colonization with EP4-ablated mouse microbiota or segmented filamentous bacteria improves the resolution of intestinal inflammation. These findings reveal that eicosanoid-dependent immune-microbiota interactions impair inflammation resolution in the aged intestine, highlighting potential intervention strategies for improving age-related gut health.
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.
