ヨーネ菌死菌の経口投与による粘膜免疫応答の誘導 CMRIと順天堂大学医学部の共同研究

Abstract
Findings in humans and animals have demonstrated a potential role for Mycobacterium avium subsp. paratuberculosis (MAP) antigenic components in encephalitogenic T cell activation.

Here we reported that oral administration of MAP activates the mucosal immunity and exacerbates active experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE) in C57BL/6J mice, modulating the immune cell traffic from secondary lymphoid organs to central nervous system. The detection of antigenic mycobacterial components by intestinal antigen-presenting cells may modulate the immune system and the subsequent inflammatory status through various signaling mechanisms, including the synthesis of pro-inflammatory cytokines involved in EAE pathogenesis.
