Abstract Microfold cells (M-cells) are specialized of the intestine that sample luminal microbiota and dietary antigens to educate immune intestinal lymphoid follicles. The function M-cells in systemic inflammatory responses still unclear. Here we show epithelial non-canonical NFkB signaling mediated by NFkB-inducing kinase (NIK) is highly active follicles, required for M-cell maintenance. Intestinal NIK modulates differentiation elicits both local IL-17A IgA production. Importantly, mouse...

Calf diarrhea is of great concern to the global dairy industry as it results in significant economic losses due lower conception rates, reduced milk production, and early culling. Although there evidence an association between altered gut microbiota diarrhea, remarkably little known about microbial metabolic mechanisms underlying link dysbiosis occurrence calf diarrhea. Here, we used fecal metagenomic metabolomic analyses demonstrate that microbiota-driven disorders purine or arachidonic...

Hypoxia-inducible factor 2α (HIF2α) directly regulates a battery of genes essential for intestinal iron absorption. Interestingly, deficiency and overload disorders do not result in increased expression glycolytic or angiogenic HIF2α target genes. Similarly, inflammatory tumor foci can induce distinct subset vivo. These observations indicate that different stimuli activate subsets via mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we conducted high-throughput siRNA-based screen to identify regulate...
