Inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is caused by aberrant immune responses to the gut microbiota. Among the gut microbiota, adherent-invasive Escherichia Coli (AIEC) is thought to be the pathogen through invading the intestinal epithelial cells and causing inflammation. IL-17 secretion increase, induced by enhanced bacterial adhesion to the intestine epithelium, could on one hand protect the mucosa, but on the other hand, over amount of IL-17 initializes inflammation reactions that in turn damages the mucosa. The relationship between IL-17 and AIEC is still unclear. In this study, we tried to elucidate the function of IL-17 in AIEC-mediated colitis. Wild type (WT) and IL-17 knockout (IL-17 KO) mice were inoculated with AIEC strain E. coli LF82 and treated with dextran sodium sulphate (DSS). Histological examination of the colon was performed. Mucosa damage was assessed and scored. IL-22 and IL-17 in colon tissues were detected by ELISA, qPCR and immunohistochemistry methods. Transient AIEC colonization in IL-17 KO mice resulted in increased intestinal epithelial damage, systemic bacterial burden and mortality compared with WT controls. Moreover, IL-17 is required for the induction of IL-22 in the experimental animal models during AIEC strain E. coli LF82 colonization. These results indicate IL-17 plays a protective role in AIEC strain E. coli LF82 induced colitis by promoting IL-22 secretion.
