Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Composition of intestinal microbiota has been shown to be altered in several disorders including rheumatoid arthritis (RA). However, it remained unknown whether the altered composition of microbiota is a result or cause of RA. We found that a subpopulation of RA patients harbored Prevotella-dominated intestinal microbiota. We analyzed the altered composition of microbiota dominated by Prevotella contributes to the pathogenesis of arthritis in arthritis-prone SKG mice, which did not develop arthritis in the absence of microbiota. Germ-free SKG mice were colonized with human microbiota (RA-type and healthy control (HC)-type microbiota). RA-SKG mice developed severe arthritis compared to SKG mice harboring HC microbiota. The number of Th17 cells in regional lymph nodes and the colon was increased in RA-SKG mice. Thus altered composition of microbiota contributes to the pathogenesis of arthritis.
