| 摘要 |
The pathogenic factors of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) are very complex, and further investigation of its pathogenesis is necessary. Some polar proteins have been reported to perform functions other than maintaining cell structure. In this study, we reported that the polar protein AF6 expressed by intestinal epithelial cells (IEC) can regulate the expression of MHCII in epithelial cells, thus affecting the cross dialogue between IECs and immune cells, and promoting the secretion of IgA by B cells to play a protective function. IgA supplementation can also improve the severe colitis phenotype caused by AF6 loss. Our study provides an understanding of the regulatory mechanisms of the intestinal epithelial expression of MHC II and its important role in colitis, which will aid in treatment and intervention. |
