Abstract
Gut microbiota can interact with the immune system through direct or indirect pathways. In the indirect pathway, gut microbiota produces metabolites such as short chain fatty acids (SCFAs), which may modulate the immune response. SCFAs reduce inflammation, repair intestinal barrier, and induce propagation of specific immune cells, e.g., T regulatory cells (Treg), which can suppress reactive cells such as macrophage and dendritic cells (DCs). As one of the most dominant members of microbiota, Clostridium produces SCFAs. As one of SCFA members, butyrate plays an important role in the modulation of immune cells. Through butyrate production, Clostridium helps to generate aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR). AhR interacts with many proteins inside the cytoplasm including Heat Shock Protein 90 (HSP 90), HSP 23, and chaperone. Activation of AhR leads to its translocation inside the nucleus and gene expression, which yields cell differentiation, energy metabolism, microbial defense, and immune cell propagation. Moreover, it may interact with other cells like B-cell and epithelial cell, which are responsible for modulation and maturation, respectively. AhR causes upregulation in the co-stimulatory marker in the DCs and interacts with nuclear factor KB (NF-ĸB) to modulate cell function. Butyrate induces Treg (iTreg) propagation and upregulates the Forkhead box p3 (FOXP3) as a special marker of Treg cell. It may also yield signaling through G-protein coupled receptors (GPRs) which, in turn, facilitates polymorphonuclear (PMN) chemotaxis.
The interaction between microbiota and non-immune cells, such as Paneth cells, leads to the secretion of antimicrobial substance, erection of barriers against bacterial pathogens, and regulation of microbiota composition via feedback effect. In addition, the components released from microbiota, such as peptidoglycan, reinforce the maturation of both the immune system and non-immune tissue development. Moreover, microbiota can directly activate the effector cells, e.g., macrophage, to secrete cytokines and propagate Treg cells.
