The pathogenesis of Crohn’s disease-associated fibrostenosis and fistulas imply the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) process. As succinate and its receptor (SUCNR1) are involved in intestinal inflammation and fibrosis, we investigated their relevance in EMT and Crohn’s disease (CD) fistulas. Succinate levels and SUCNR1-expression were analyzed in intestinal resections from non-Inflammatory Bowel Disease (non-IBD) subjects and CD patients with stenosing-B2 or penetrating-B3 complications and in a murine heterotopic-transplant model of intestinal fibrosis. EMT, as increased expression of Snail1, Snail2 and vimentin and reduction in E-cadherin, was analyzed in tissues and succinate-treated HT29 cells. The role played by SUCNR1 was studied by silencing its gene. Succinate levels and SUCNR1 expression are increased in B3-CD patients and correlate with EMT markers. SUCNR1 is detected in transitional cells lining the fistula tract and in surrounding mesenchymal cells. Grafts from wild type (WT) mice present increased succinate levels, SUCNR1 up-regulation and EMT activation, effects not observed in SUCNR1−/− tissues. SUCNR1 activation induces the expression of Wnt ligands, activates WNT signaling and induces a WNT-mediated EMT in HT29 cells. In conclusion, succinate and its receptor are up-regulated around CD-fistulas and activate Wnt signaling and EMT in intestinal epithelial cells. These results point to SUCNR1 as a novel pharmacological target for fistula prevention.

ABSTRACT Ileal lesions in 36.4% of patients with Crohn's disease are colonized by pathogenic adherent-invasive Escherichia coli. The aim of this study was to determine the in vitro inhibitory effects of the probiotic strain, Lactobacillus casei DN-114 001, on adhesion to and invasion of human intestinal epithelial cells by adherent-invasive E. coli isolated from Crohn's disease patients. The experiments were performed with undifferentiated Intestine-407 cells and with undifferentiated or differentiated Caco-2 intestinal epithelial cells. Bacterial adhesion to and invasion of intestinal epithelial cells were assessed by counting CFU. The inhibitory effects of L. casei were determined after coincubation with adherent-invasive E. coli or after preincubation of intestinal cells with L. casei prior to infection with adherent-invasive E. coli. Inhibitory effects of L. casei on adherent-invasive E. coli adhesion to differentiated and undifferentiated intestinal epithelial cells reached 75% to 84% in coincubation and 43% to 62% in preincubation experiments, according to the cell lines used. Addition of L. casei culture supernatant to the incubation medium increased L. casei adhesion to intestinal epithelial cells and enhanced the inhibitory effects of L. casei. The inhibitory effects on E. coli invasion paralleled those on adhesion. This effect was not due to a bactericidal effect on adherent-invasive E. coli or to a cytotoxic effect on epithelial intestinal cells. As Lactobacillus casei DN-114 001 strongly inhibits interaction of adherent-invasive E. coli with intestinal epithelial cells, this finding suggests that the probiotic strain could be of therapeutic value in Crohn's disease.

The Impact

Besides genetic polymorphisms and environmental factors, the intestinal microbiota is an important factor in the etiology of Crohn’s disease (CD). Among microbiota alterations, a particular pathotype of Escherichia coli involved in the pathogenesis of CD abnormally colonizes the intestinal mucosa of patients: the adherent-invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) pathobiont bacteria, which have the abilities to adhere to and to invade intestinal epithelial cells (IECs), as well as to survive and replicate within macrophages. AIEC have been the subject of many studies in recent years to unveil some genes linked to AIEC virulence and to understand the impact of AIEC infection on the gut and consequently their involvement in CD. In this review, we describe the lifestyle of AIEC bacteria within the intestine, from the interaction with intestinal epithelial and immune cells with an emphasis on environmental and genetic factors favoring their implantation, to their lifestyle in the intestinal lumen. Finally, we discuss AIEC-targeting strategies such as the use of FimH antagonists, bacteriophages, or antibiotics, which could constitute therapeutic options to prevent and limit AIEC colonization in CD patients.
