ABSTRACT
Bile acids are critical metabolites in the gastrointestinal tract and contribute to maintaining intestinal immune homeostasis through cross-talk with the gut microbiota. The conversion of bile acids by the gut microbiome is now recognized as a factor affecting both host metabolism and immune responses, but its physiological roles remain unclear. We conducted a screen for microbiome metabolites that would function as inflammasome activators and herein report the identification of 12-oxo-lithocholic acid (BAA485), a potential microbiome-derived bile acid metabolite. We demonstrate that the more potent analogue 11-oxo-12S-hydroxylithocholic acid methyl ester (BAA473) can induce secretion of interleukin-18 (IL-18) through activation of the inflammasome in both myeloid and intestinal epithelial cells. Using a genome-wide CRISPR screen with compound induced pyroptosis in THP-1 cells, we identified that inflammasome activation by BAA473 is pyrin-dependent (MEFV). To our knowledge, the bile acid analogues BAA485 and BAA473 are the first small molecule activators of the pyrin inflammasome. We surmise that pyrin inflammasome activation through microbiota-modified bile acid metabolites such as BAA473 and BAA485 plays a role in gut microbiota regulated intestinal immune response. The discovery of these two bioactive compounds may help to further unveil the importance of pyrin in gut homeostasis and autoimmune diseases.
