Vitamin D receptor upregulates tight junction protein claudin-5 against colitis-associated tumorigenesis
Mucosal Immunology, Published online: 25 March 2022; doi:10.1038/s41385-022-00502-1Intestinal epithelial VDR is important for maintaining cellular and physiological levels of TJ protein Claudin-5 to prevent inflammation and tumorigenesis in the colon. At the molecular level, the CLDN-5 gene is a newly discovered downstream target of the transcriptional factor VDR. Lack of VDR led to a reduction of Claudin-5 and more tumors, whereas enhancing VDR increased Claudin-5 to protect the intestinal epithelial cells from tumorigenesis. Overall, we noted a link between VDR signaling and barrier functions in CRC. (Source: Mucosal Immunology)

Mild COVID-19 imprints a long-term inflammatory eicosanoid- and chemokine memory in monocyte-derived macrophages
Mucosal Immunology, Published online: 15 March 2022; doi:10.1038/s41385-021-00482-8Monocyte-derived macrophages (MDM) drive the inflammatory response to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and they are a major source of eicosanoids in airway inflammation. Here we report that MDM from SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals with mild disease show an inflammatory transcriptional and metabolic imprint that lasts for at least 5 months after SARS-CoV-2 infection. MDM from convalescent SARS-CoV-2-infected individuals showed a downregulation of pro-resolving factors and an increased production of pro-inflammatory...

Epithelial GPR35 protects from Citrobacter rodentium infection by preserving goblet cells and mucosal barrier integrity
Mucosal Immunology, Published online: 09 March 2022; doi:10.1038/s41385-022-00494-yGoblet cells through their production and secretion of mucins play an essential role in protecting the host against luminal insults, and contribute to the mutualism between host and gut microbiota. Loss of epithelial Gpr35 disrupts the goblet cell compartment by reducing their numbers and increasing pyroptosis levels. Dysregulation of goblet cells is correlated with changes in the mucosa-associated bacterial communities. As a result, Gpr35f/fVil+ mice displayed increased susceptibility to C. rodentium-induced colitis. (Adapted from SERVIER M...
