High-fat-diet-associated intestinal microbiota exacerbates psoriasis-like inflammation by enhancing systemic γδ T cell IL-17 production

Abstract:

Although it is known that psoriasis is strongly associated with obesity, the mechanistic connection between diet and skin lesions is not well established. Herein, we showed that only dietary fat, not carbohydrates or proteins, exacerbates psoriatic disease. Enhanced psoriatic skin inflammation was associated with changes in the intestinal mucus layer and microbiota composition by high-fat diet (HFD). Change of intestinal microbiota by vancomycin treatment effectively blocked activation of psoriatic skin inflammation by HFD, inhibited the systemic interleukin-17 (IL-17) response, and led to increased mucophilic bacterial species such as Akkermansia muciniphila. By using IL-17 reporter mice, we could show that HFD facilitates IL-17-mediated γδ T cell response in the spleen. Notably, oral gavage with live or heat-killed A. muciniphila effectively inhibited HFD-induced enhancement of psoriatic disease. In conclusion, HFD exacerbates psoriatic skin inflammation through changing the mucus barrier and the intestine microbial composition, which leads to an enhanced systemic IL-17 response.
