3 INTRODUCTION - What Turns a Commensal into a Pathogen? certain members of intes4nal microbiota have been linked to inflammatory responses and intes4nal pathology (e.g. Bacteroides spec. and members of Enterobaceriaceae family can promote coli4s) however, signalling pathways by which resident bacteria s4mulate host immune system to induce inflamma4on in vivo remain poorly understood cri4cal step: recogni4on of microbes or endogenous molecules in the sedng of infec4on or cellular injury by host PRRs major innate signalling pathway: inflammasome

4 INTRODUCTION The NLRP3 one of four canonical inflammasomes (ac4va4on of caspase- 1) Ac4va4on of NLRP3 inflammasome requires two signals 1. TLR4 signalling induces NFkB- mediated expression of IL- 1β and NLRP3 2. several DAMPs and PAMPs lead to deubiqui4na4on of NLRP3 Assembly of NLRP3 inflammasome promotes proximity induced autoac4va4on of caspase- 1 Caspase- 1 converts pro- IL1β and pro IL- 18 into secreted bioac4ve cytokines controversial role of NLRP3 and IL- 1β in intes4nal inflamma4on: NLRP3-, caspase- 1 and IL- 1β deficient mice protected from coli4s or more suscep4ble? differences in these studies could be caused by baseline differences in the gut microbiota some commensals, such as E. coli, can induce IL- 1β in BMDM BUT ability of resident bacteria to induce IL- 1β in vivo and the innate immune cells involved remains unclear Lamkanfi & Dixit 2014

24 THE MOTIVATION Pathogenesis of inflammatory bowel diseases involves dysregulated inflammatory CD4 + T cell responses to commensal bacteria self- specific T cells are nega4vely selected in the thymus by presenta4on of self- an4gens on thymic epithelial cells (TECs) and DCs resul4ng in clonal dele4on commensal bacteria- specific CD4 + T cells are not nega4vely selected in the thymus they encounter their an4gen in the periphery, e.g. in the MLN, where DCs present commensal- derived an4gens that have been sampled from the intes4nal lumen Treg can in part limit dysregulated CD4 + T cell responses to commensal bacteria ILC3s were found to express MHCII and to limit commensal- specific CD4 + T cell responses in a MHCII dependent manner

25 CCR6 + T- bet - NKp46 - (Lymphoid 4ssue inducer- like) ILC3s express MHCII molecules and are able to process and present an4gen MHCII + ILC3s maintain intes4nal homeostasis by limi4ng pathological CD4 + T cell responses to commensal bacteria through MHCII- dependent mechanism
