Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a potent endotoxin released at high concentrations in acute infections, causing massive host inflammatory response. Accumulating evidence indicates that dysbiosis-associated chronic low levels of circulating LPS can sustain prolonged sterile low-grade inflammation increases the risk several non-communicable diseases. Interventions aimed increasing abundance beneficial/probiotic bacteria, including Akkermansia muciniphila, result reduced inflammation, favoring metabolic and immune health. Immunosuppression common feature conditions dendritic cells (DCs) represent key targets given their ability to shift balance toward immunity or tolerance. In this study, effects from pathogenic (Escherichia coli Salmonella enterica) probiotic (Akkermansia muciniphila) bacterial species on human DC generation functions were compared. We report monocyte precursor priming with Escherichia enterica forces differentiation PD-L1-expressing DCs, releasing IL-6 IL-10, impairs capacity drive full TCR-Vδ2 T cell activation. Conversely, comparable muciniphila promoted DCs preserved activating potential immunostimulatory properties. These results shed light mechanisms underlying impact endotoxemia disease pathogenesis, increase our understanding immunomodulatory muciniphila.

Chronic liver diseases, primarily metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic disease (MASLD), and alcoholic (MetALD), viral hepatitis, can lead to fibrosis, cirrhosis, cancer. Hepatic stellate cell (HSC) activation plays a central role in the development of myofibroblasts fibrogenesis chronic diseases. However, HSC is influenced by complex microenvironments within liver, which are largely shaped interactions between HSCs various other types. Changes phenotypes mechanisms involve glucose, lipid, cholesterol metabolism, oxidative stress, unfolded protein response (UPR), autophagy, ferroptosis, senescence, nuclear receptors. Clinical interventions targeting these pathways have shown promising results addressing inflammation as well modulating glucose lipid metabolism stress responses.

Metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is a major contributor to liver-related morbidity, cardiovascular disease, and metabolic complications. Lifestyle interventions, including diet exercise, are first line in treating MASLD. Dietary approaches such as the low-glycemic-index Mediterranean diet, ketogenic intermittent fasting, high fiber diets have demonstrated potential addressing dysfunction underlying this condition. The development progression of MASLD closely associated with taxonomic shifts gut microbial communities, relationship well-documented literature. Given importance primary treatment for MASLD, it important understand how microbiota their byproducts mediate favorable outcomes induced by healthy dietary patterns. Conversely, changes conferred unhealthy patterns Western may induce dysbiosis influence through promoting hepatic inflammation, up-regulating lipogenesis, dysregulating bile acid metabolism, increasing insulin resistance, causing oxidative damage hepatocytes. Although emerging evidence has identified links between microbiota, significant gaps remain understanding specific roles, metabolite pathways, host interactions, causal relationships. Therefore, review aims provide mechanistic insights into role microbiota-mediated processes analysis both contribution pathophysiology. By better elucidating interplay nutrients, processes, onset work identify new opportunities targeted interventions treat efficiently.

Gut dysbiosis contributes to multiple pathologies, yet the mechanisms of gut microbiota-mediated influence on systemic and distant responses remain largely elusive. This study aimed identify role nanosized bacterial extracellular vesicles (bEVs) in mediating allodynia, i.e., pain hypersensitivity, a diet-induced obesity (DIO) model. bEVs were enriched from feces lean (bEVLean) DIO (bEVDIO) mice by an approach combining ultracentrifugation immunoprecipitation then extensively analyzed for purity characteristics. Next, injected, either intraplantarly or intravenously, assess sensitivity. Fluorescence-labeled injected enema biodistribution. The effect bEV immune cells inflammation was array, immunophenotyping, microscopy, NF-κB activation, cellular uptake assays. Results showed that bEVDIO administration wild-type replicated allodynia phenotype observed both mechanical thermal stimuli. Importantly, this compromised TRPA1/TRPV1 double-knockout mice. Biodistribution analyses entry into circulation with subsequent localization at sites. Multiple revealed exposure incited inflammation, primarily through modulating innate system. inflammatory mechanism involved LPS surface, activating TLR2- TLR4-related pathways, as confirmed using TLR2 TLR4 inhibitors shaving surface proteins. Interestingly, enhanced contingent interactions involving proteins TLR2/TLR4 monocytes. These findings illuminate hitherto unexplored pivotal mediators linked dysbiosis.

The liver is susceptible to viruses and bacterial infections, tumors, sterile tissue damage, but immunological danger recognition in the highly unconventional. When analyzing innate adaptive immunity organ, valid concepts that guide immune response periphery should be put aside. In liver, vascular anatomy a game changer, as about 80% of blood percolates organ arrives from hepatic portal vein, draining rich molecules intestinal flora. This 24/7 exposure high amounts pathogen-associated molecular pattern (PAMPs) results tolerance. dendritic, Kupffer (KC), sinusoidal endothelial cells (LSECs), even hepatocytes express PD-L1, T lymphocyte downregulatory molecule. Most Fas-L, IL-10, TGF-β, low levels co-stimulatory molecules, lack or have MHC-I and/or MHC-II expression. Moreover, other negative regulators such CTLA-4, IDO-1, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) are regularly expressed. Then, how can real discerned recognized this sea PAMPs? an open question. Here, we hypothesize conventional occur specific minor arterial segments,. triad, where artery ramificates into stroma carries with no gut-derived PAMPs, there evolutive environmental pressure for immunosuppressive pathways, could occur. Therefore, segments recognize support immunity.
