Background and aims

Vitamin D exerts a regulatory role over mucosal immunity via the vitamin D receptor (VDR). Although Paneth cells and their products are known to regulate the commensal and pathogenic microbiota, the role that VDRs in Paneth cells play in these responses is unknown.

Methods

We identified the decreased intestinal VDR significantly correlated with reduction of an inflammatory bowel disease risk gene ATG16L1 and Paneth cell lysozymes in patients with Crohn's disease. We generated Paneth cell-specific VDR knockout (VDRΔPC) mice to investigate the molecular mechanisms.

Results

Lysozymes in the Paneth cells were significantly decreased in the VDRΔPC mice. Isolated VDRΔPC Paneth cells exhibited weakened inhibition of pathogenic bacterial growth and displayed reduced autophagic responses. VDRΔPC mice had significantly higher inflammation after Salmonella infections. VDRΔPC mice also showed high susceptibility to small intestinal injury induced by indomethacin, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Co-housing of VDRΔPC and VDRlox mice made the VDRΔPC less vulnerable to dextran sulfate sodium colitis, suggesting the transmission of protective bacterial from the VDRlox mice. Thus, a lack of VDR in Paneth cells leads to impaired antibacterial activities and consequently increased inflammatory responses. Genetically and environmentally regulated VDRs in the Paneth cells may set the threshold for the development of chronic inflammation, as observed in inflammatory bowel diseases.

Conclusions

We provide new insights into the tissue-specific functions of VDRs in maintaining Paneth cell alertness to pathogens in intestinal disorders. Targeting the VDR affects multiple downstream events within Paneth cells that inhibit intestinal inflammation and establish host defense against enteropathogens."xsd:string
