TLRs Regulate the Gatekeeping Functions of the Intestinal Follicle-Associated Epithelium

Abstract: Initiation of adaptive mucosal immunity occurs in organized mucosal lymphoid tissues such as Peyer’s patches of the small intestine. Mucosal lymphoid follicles are covered by a specialized follicle-associated epithelium (FAE) that contains M cells, which mediate uptake and transepithelial transport of luminal Ags. FAE cells also produce chemokines that attract Ag-presenting dendritic cells (DCs). TLRs link innate and adaptive immunity, but their possible role in regulating FAE functions is unknown. We show tha… Show more

“…Using laser capture microdissection, we show that CXCL2 was preferentially expressed by cells in the FAE and SED while localized production of CCL2 and CXCL9 in PP was not readily apparent. In addition, chemokine expression by the villus epithelium was not detected despite it expressing TLR [33]; the villus epithelium may have a more limited capacity to sense bacteria relative to the FAE due to the greater physical barrier overlying the villus epithelium [5,34]. Monocytes and neutrophils form clusters in PP of infected mice.…”

“…Because ischemic tissue releases DAMPs, several reports have pointed to an important role for TLRs in ischemic organ damage (15)(16)(17)(18)(19)(20)(21)(22)(23)(24)(25)(26)(27). In particular, the absence of TLR2 has been shown to decrease kidney injury in response to prolonged ischemia (28) and to nephrotoxic Ab-induced glomerulonephritis (29).…”

“…It is taken up by M cells [36] and is known to possess adjuvant effects by stimulating innate immune responses by structural cell wall components [20,41,42]. In particular, yeast is able to stimulate TLR2 and 4 which have been shown to enhance microparticle uptake by M cells and to support mucosal adjuvantic properties of a carrier [2,43,44]. Moreover, it has been shown to generate adaptive (including cell-mediated) immune responses in mice after subcutaneous or oral application [19,[45][46][47] and also in humans [48].…”
