Background & aims

Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is a major intestinal disease. Excessive inflammation and increased endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress are the key events in the development of IBD. Search of a genome-wide association study database identified a remarkable correlation between a TM9SF4 single-nucleotide polymorphism and IBD. Here, we aimed to resolve its underlying mechanism.

Methods

The role of TM9SF4 was determined with experimental mouse models of IBD. ER stress cascades, barrier functions, and macrophage polarization in colonic tissues and cells were assessed in vivo and in vitro. The expression of TM9SF4 was compared between inflamed regions of ulcerative colitis patients and normal colon samples.

Results

In mouse models of IBD, genetic knockout of the TM9SF4 gene aggravated the disease symptoms. In colonic epithelial cells, short hairpin RNA-mediated knockdown of TM9SF4 expression promoted inflammation and increased ER stress. In macrophages, TM9SF4 knockdown promoted M1 macrophage polarization but suppressed M2 macrophage polarization. Genetic knockout/knockdown of TM9SF4 also disrupted epithelial barrier function. Mechanistically, TM9SF4 deficiency may act through Ca2+ store depletion and cytosolic acidification to induce an ER stress increase. Furthermore, the expression level of TM9SF4 was found to be much lower in the inflamed colon regions of human ulcerative colitis patients than in normal colon samples.

Conclusions

Our study identified a novel IBD-associated protein, TM9SF4, the reduced expression of which can aggravate intestinal inflammation. Deficiency of TM9SF4 increases ER stress, promotes inflammation, and impairs the intestinal epithelial barrier to aggravate IBD."xsd:string
