Abstract: | Rationale: The aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR) functions in the regulation of intestinal inflammation, but knowledge of the underlying mechanisms in innate immune cells is limited. Here, we investigated the role of AhR in modulating the functions of macrophages in inflammatory bowel disease pathogenesis. Methods: The cellular composition of intestinal lamina propria CD45(+) leukocytes in a dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced mouse colitis model was determined by single-cell RNA sequencing. Macrophage pyroptosis was quantified by analysis of lactate dehydrogenase release, propidium iodide staining, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, western blot, and flow cytometry. Differentially expressed genes were confirmed by RNA-seq, RT-qPCR, luciferase assay, chromatin immunoprecipitation, and immunofluorescence staining. Results: AhR deficiency mediated dynamic remodeling of the cellular composition of intestinal lamina propria (LP) CD45(+) immune cells in a colitis model, with a significant increase in monocyte-macrophage lineage. Mice with AhR deficiency in myeloid cells developed more severe dextran sulfate sodium induced colitis, with concomitant increased macrophage pyroptosis. Dietary supplementation with an AhR pre-ligand, indole-3-carbinol, conferred protection against colitis while protection failed in mice lacking AhR in myeloid cells. Mechanistically, AhR signaling inhibited macrophage pyroptosis by promoting ornithine decarboxylase 1 (Odc1) transcription, to enhance polyamine biosynthesis. The increased polyamine, particularly spermine, inhibited NLRP3 inflammasome assembly and subsequent pyroptosis by suppressing K(+) efflux. AHR expression was positively correlated with ODC1 in intestinal mucosal biopsies from patients with ulcerative colitis. Conclusions: These findings suggest a functional role for the AhR/ODC1/polyamine axis in maintaining intestinal homeostasis, providing potential targets for treatment of inflammatory bowel disease. |
