Microbiota regulates type 1 diabetes through Toll-like receptors

Abstract: Deletion of the innate immune adaptor myeloid differentiation primary response gene 88 (MyD88) in the nonobese diabetic (NOD) mouse model of type 1 diabetes (T1D) results in microbiota-dependent protection from the disease: MyD88-negative mice in germfree (GF), but not in specific pathogen-free conditions develop the disease. These results could be explained by expansion of particular protective bacteria ("specific lineage hypothesis") or by dominance of negative (tolerizing) signaling over proinflammatory sig… Show more

“…These findings led to the conclusion that in the absence of signaling through MyD88-dependent innate immune receptors, the microbiota induces negative signaling reducing both anti-commensal and autoimmune reactivity (11,32). To test whether the same rules apply to development of sialitis in the absence of MyD88, we examined salivary glands lesions in MyD88 KO NOD mice.…”

“…Results from a huge number of scientific investigations revealed a general impact of the commensal microbiota in host metabolism and in metabolic diseases including obesity, diabetes mellitus, cardiovascular disorders, kidney stones, or cancer [47–49]. Even the dysbiosis in the gut or the respiratory tract has been linked to alterations in immune responses and to disease development [50].…”

“…These play a vital role in host defense, but dysregulation in TLR signaling can also confer risk to autoimmune diseases, such as CD [61] . It is known that gut microbes provide signals that can both promote and inhibit autoimmunity by signaling through the TLR family [62] . While TRIF signaling could act as a negative regulator of immunity, MyD88 signaling seems to act as a potent activator.…”
