We sequenced whole adipose tissue from control and LCMV infected mice 6dpi, in control vs T cell-specific IFNAR knockoutmice to understand the transcriptional changes in adipose tissue upon loss of type I IFN-T cell singaling axis, and how it contributes to cachexia. Overall design: inguinal fat pad (after removing iLN) was used for sequencing in control and infected mice (LCMV clone13 2x10^6PFU), this was done in two genotypes (IFNARfl/fl) as controls, vs (IFNARfl/fl-CD4cre/+) as T-cell specific IFNAR knockouts.

View SamplesDecreased bile secretion in rodents by either ligation of the common bile duct or induction of cirrhosis causes changes in the small intestine, including bacterial overgrowth and translocation across the mucosal barrier. Oral administration of bile acids inhibits these effects. The genes regulated by FXR in ileum suggested that it might contribute to the enteroprotective actions of bile acids. To test this hypothesis, mice were administered either GW4064 or vehicle for 2 days and then subjected to bile duct ligation (BDL) or sham operation. After 5 days, during which GW4064 or vehicle treatment was continued, the mice were killed and their intestines were analyzed for FXR target gene expression.

View SamplesObstruction of bile flow results in bacterial proliferation and mucosal injury in the small intestine that can lead to the translocation of bacteria across the epithelial barrier and systemic infection. These adverse effects of biliary obstruction can be inhibited by administration of bile acids. Here we show that the farnesoid X receptor (FXR), a nuclear receptor for bile acids, induces genes involved in enteroprotection and inhibits bacterial overgrowth and mucosal injury in ileum caused by bile duct ligation. Mice lacking FXR have increased ileal levels of bacteria and a compromised epithelial barrier. These findings reveal a central role for FXR in protecting the distal small intestine from bacterial invasion and suggest that FXR agonists may prevent epithelial deterioration and bacterial translocation in patients with impaired bile flow. In this report we have examined the role of FXR in the ileum. We demonstrate that it plays a crucial role in preventing bacterial overgrowth and maintaining the integrity of the intestinal epithelium
