Core Tip |
T helper 17 (Th17) polarization occurs during the development of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). Adenosine and its receptors participate in the development of intestinal inflammation and immune regulation. Here, we found that the intestinal levels of ATP, adenosine 2A receptor (A2AR), and interleukin-17 (IL-17) and the number of CD4+ T cells increased in post-infectious IBS (PI-IBS) mice. In addition, A2AR promoted CD4+ T cells’ IL-17 production. Upregulated A2AR accelerated PI-IBS by promoting CD4+ T cells’ Th17 polarization, which was reversed by the A2AR antagonist. Thus, our results prove that the regulation of CD4+ T cells’ Th17 polarization by A2AR plays a pathogenetic role in the development of PI-IBS. |
