12 Summary I Specific induction of increased mucosal permeability is associated with an increased production of IFN-γ and IL-1 as well as with an increase in the number of CD4+T cells expressing CD25 and/or LAP This condition is associated with resistance to induction of TNBS colitis

13 Effect of ir Ethanol 5% pre-administration Protection from TNBS-colitis is dependent on LAP+Tcells 15 Recipients of: weight (% of day ) Days LPMC from ethanol treated mice (A) LAP depleted LPMC from ethanol treated Mice (B) LPMC fromtnbs treated mice (C) TNBS(D) IFN-γ (ng/ml) Unstim α CD3/28 Recipients Recipients of LPMC of LAP+depleted LPMC TNBS

21 Summary III Myeloid dendritic cells induce an IL-1 dependent expansion of CD4+LAP+T cells TLR2 signaling is critical for the generation of LAP+ regulatory cells

22 Conclusions Transient loss of epithelial cell barrier function increases the resistance of the mucosa to inflammation via the induction of regulatory T cells Limited exposure of the mucosal immune system to the microflora might represent an important mechanism of tolerance induction and gut homeostasis
