Abstract
Citrobacter rodentium models infection with enteropathogenic Escherichia coli and ulcerative colitis (UC). While C57BL/6 (C57) mice recover, C3H/HeN (C3H) mice succumb to infection, partially due to increased colonic neutrophil elastase activity, also seen in UC patients; however, the underlying cause was unknown. Here, we found that bone marrow, blood, and colonic C57 neutrophils expressed (CD)11bHi and reached the infected colonic lumen, where they underwent productive NETosis. In contrast, while the number of C3H neutrophils increased in the bone marrow, blood, and colon, they remained CD11bLo and got trapped in the submucosa, away from C. rodentium, where they underwent harmful NETosis. CD11bLo neutrophils in C3H mice infected with CRi9, which triggers expression of neutrophil chemoattractants, reached the colonization site, resulting in host survival. UC patient neutrophils also displayed decreased levels of the activation/differentiation markers CD16/CXCR4. These results, suggesting that neutrophil malfunction contributes to exacerbated colitis, provide insight for future therapeutic prospects.
期刊介绍:
Mucosal Immunology, the official publication of the Society of Mucosal Immunology (SMI), serves as a forum for both basic and clinical scientists to discuss immunity and inflammation involving mucosal tissues. It covers gastrointestinal, pulmonary, nasopharyngeal, oral, ocular, and genitourinary immunology through original research articles, scholarly reviews, commentaries, editorials, and letters. The journal gives equal consideration to basic, translational, and clinical studies and also serves as a primary communication channel for the SMI governing board and its members, featuring society news, meeting announcements, policy discussions, and job/training opportunities advertisements.
