Hansen Danica Jozipovic Line F. Zachariassen Dennis S. Nielsen Axel K. Hansen Karsten Buschard Journal of Diabetes AbstractBackgroundWe aimed to investigate whether alpha‐galactosylceramide (α‐GalCer)‐producing Bacteroides fragilis could induce natural killer T (NKT) cells in nonobese diabetic (NOD) mice and reduce their diabetes incidence.MethodsFive‐week‐old female NOD mice were treated orally with B. fragilis, and islet pathology and diabetes onset were monitored. Immune responses were analyzed by flow cytometry and multiplex technology. Effects of ultraviolet (UV)‐killed α‐GalCer‐producing B. fragilis and their culture medium on invariant NKT (iNKT) cells were tested ex vivo on murine splenocytes, and the immunosuppressive capacity of splenocytes from B. fragilis‐treated NOD mice were tested by adoptive transfer to nonobese diabetic/severe combined immunodeficiency (NOD/SCID) mice.ResultsB. fragilis reduced the diabetes incidence from 69% to 33% and the percent of islets with insulitis from 40% to 7%, which doubled the serum insulin level compared with the vehicle‐treated control mice. Furthermore, the early treatment reduced proinflammatory mediators in the serum, whereas the proportion of CD4+ NKT cell population was increased by 33%. B. fragilis growth media stimulated iNKT cells and anti‐inflammatory M2 macrophages ex vivo in contrast to UV‐killed bacteria, which had no effect, strongly indicating an α‐GalCer‐mediated effect. Adoptive transfer of splenocytes from B. fragilis‐treated NOD mice induced a similar diabetes incidence as splenocytes from untreated NOD mice.ConclusionsB. fragilis induced iNKT cells and M2 macrophages and reduced type 1 diabetes in NOD mice. The protective effect seemed to be more centered on gut–pancreas interactions rather than a systemic immunosuppression. B. fragilis should be considered for probiotic use in individuals at risk of developing type 1 diabetes.image 10.1111/1753-0407.13593 http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ |
