RESUMEN
The complement component 5a/complement component 5 receptor 1 (C5a/C5aR1) pathway plays a crucial role in the onset and development of inflammation, but relevant studies in fish are lacking. In this study, we successfully characterized the relationship between half-smooth tongue sole (Cynoglossus semilaevis) C5aR1 (CsC5aR1) and bacterial inflammation. First, we showed that the overexpression of CsC5aR1 significantly increased bacterial pathological damage in the liver and intestine, whereas inhibition attenuated the damage. The in vitro experiments suggested that CsC5aR1 was able to positively regulate the phagocytic activity and respiratory burst of tongue sole macrophages. In terms of both transcriptional and translational levels, overexpression/inhibition of CsC5aR1 was followed by a highly consistent up-regulation/decrease of its downstream canonical inflammatory factor interleukin-6 (CsIL-6). Furthermore, we stimulated macrophages by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and lipoteichoic acid (LTA) and found a broad-spectrum response to bacterial infections by the C5a/C5aR1 complement pathway together with the downstream inflammatory factor CsIL-6. Subsequently, we directly elucidated that CsIL-6 is an indicator of C5a/C5aR1-mediated inflammation at different infection concentrations, different infectious bacteria (Vibrio anguillarum and Mycobacterium marinum), and different detection levels. These results might provide a new inflammation bio-marker for early warning of bacteria-induced hyperinflammation leading to fish mortality and a promising target for the treatment of bacterial inflammation in teleost.

BACKGROUND: Although the beneficial properties of vitamin D in anti-inflammation and immunity-modulation are promising in the management of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), data were limited for the critical IBD prognosis. The association between serum vitamin D levels and the risk of bowel resection in individuals with IBD remains largely unknown. MATERIALS AND METHODS: The authors performed a longitudinal cohort study among 5474 individuals with IBD in the UK Biobank. Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D [25(OH)D] was measured using direct competitive chemiluminescent immunoassay. Bowel resection events were ascertained via national inpatient data. Multivariable-adjusted Cox proportional hazard regression was used to examine the association between serum 25(OH)D and bowel resection risk, presented with hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% CIs. Restricted cubic spline (RCS) was used to evaluate dose-response associations. RESULTS: During a mean follow-up of 13.1 years, the authors documented 513 incident bowel resection cases. Compared to participants with vitamin D deficiency, nondeficient participants showed a significantly reduced bowel resection risk in IBD (HR 0.72, 95% CI: 0.59-0.87, P =0.001), Crohn's disease (CD, HR 0.74, 95% CI: 0.56-0.98, P =0.038), and ulcerative colitis (UC, HR 0.73, 95% CI: 0.57-0.95, P =0.020). When comparing extreme quintiles of 25(OH)D level, participants with IBD showed a 34% reduced risk of bowel resection (95% CI: 11-51%, P =0.007) and participants with UC showed a 46% reduced risk (95% CI: 19-64%, P =0.003), while this association was not significant in CD (HR 0.93, 95% CI: 0.59-1.45, P =0.740). Linear dose-response associations were observed using the RCS curve (all P -nonlinearity>0.05). CONCLUSION: Increased serum level of 25(OH)D is independently associated with reduced bowel resection risk in IBD. This association was significant in UC but may not be stable in CD. Vitamin D deficiency is a risk factor for bowel resection in individuals with IBD, and may be an effective metric in predicting and risk-screening surgical events.

Background: The Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) diet is emerging as a promising candidate for preventive measures against inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), though there is currently no direct evidence from population-based studies. This study aims to bridge the gap in understanding of the association of the MIND diet with IBD risk. Methods: We utilized data from 187 490 participants in the UK Biobank who provided dietary information and were free of IBD at baseline. Dietary information was obtained using a validated web-based 24-hour dietary recall questionnaire. A MIND diet score was evaluated based on the intake of ten beneficial and five unhealthy food groups and the scores were further grouped into tertiles. The outcome of interest was incident IBD, Crohn's disease (CD), and ulcerative colitis (UC). Multivariable-adjusted hazard ratios (HRs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) were estimated using Cox proportional hazard models adjusted for demographic characteristics, lifestyle factors, cancer history, and other dietary factors. Mediation analyses were performed to evaluate the role of systemic inflammation and metabolic disorders represented by the integrated biomarkers in the MIND diet-IBD association. Results: After a mean follow-up of 10.7 years, we documented 825 incident IBD cases (250 CD and 575 UC). The average age of the participants was 56.2 years, of which 55.0% were females. We found that greater adherence to the MIND diet, represented by a higher diet score, was associated with a lower risk of IBD (HRcomparing extreme tertiles 0.74, 95% CI 0.62-0.90, p = 0.002; p for trend = 0.005), CD (HR 0.66, 95% CI 0.47-0.94, p = 0.022; p for trend = 0.023), and UC (HR 0.78, 95% CI 0.62-0.98, p = 0.031; p for trend = 0.022). The associations were partially mediated by metabolic and inflammation status (mediation proportion: 5.5-15.9%). Conclusion: We found higher adherence to the MIND diet was associated with a lower risk of IBD, and that inflammatory and metabolic conditions may play an important role in the underlying mechanistic pathways.
