摘要

Summary: Several epidemiological studies have demonstrated that patients with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) have a higher incidence of urinary tract infections (UTI) and there is significant homology of the immunodominant mitochondrial autoantigen, the E2 component of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC-E2), between mammals and bacteria. Previous work has demonstrated that non-obese diabetic (NOD).B6 Idd10/Idd18 infected with Novosphingobium aromaticivorans developed liver lesions similar to human PBC. It was postulated that the biliary disease was dependent upon the presence of the unique N.aro glycosphingolipids in activating natural killer T (NKT) cells. To address this issue, we infected NOD.B6 Idd10/Idd18 mice with either Escherichia coli, N.aro or use of a phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) vehicle control and serially followed animals for the appearance of liver pathology and anti-mitochondrial autoantibodies (AMA). Of striking importance, the biliary disease of E.coli-infected mice was more severe than N. Aro-infected mice and the titre of AMA was higher in E.coli-infected mice. Furthermore, the immunopathology did not correlate with the ability of bacterial extracts to produce antigen-dependent activation of NKT cells. Our data suggest that the unique glycosphingolipids of N.aro are not required for the development of autoimmune cholangitis. Importantly, the data highlight the clinical significance of E.coli infection in a genetically susceptible host, and we suggest that the appearance of autoimmune cholangitis is dependent upon molecular mimicry. These data highlight that breach of tolerance to PDC-E2 is probably the first event in the natural history of PBC in genetically susceptible hosts.

Aro感染的小鼠更为严重,而大肠杆菌感染的小鼠的滴度更高。此外,免疫病理学与细菌提取物产生依赖抗原的NKT细胞活化能力无关。我们的数据表明,N.aro独特的鞘糖脂对于自身免疫性胆管炎的形成不是必需的。重要的是,这些数据突出了在遗传易感宿主中大肠杆菌感染的临床意义,并且我们建议自身免疫性胆管炎的出现取决于分子模拟。这些数据表明,对PDC-E2的耐受性破坏可能是遗传易感宿主中PBC自然史上的第一件事。
