Proton pump inhibitor alters Th17/Treg balance and induces gut dysbiosis suppressing contact hypersensitivity reaction in mice
Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), such as omeprazole, are the most commonly prescribed drugs. Treatment with PPIs alters gut microbiota composition and reduces the production of reactive oxygen (ROS) and proinflammatory IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α cytokines. Here, using the T cell-dependent contact hypersen...

Summary: | Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs), such as omeprazole, are the most commonly prescribed drugs. Treatment with PPIs alters gut microbiota composition and reduces the production of reactive oxygen (ROS) and proinflammatory IL-1β, IL-6, and TNF-α cytokines. Here, using the T cell-dependent contact hypersensitivity (CHS) response, an animal model of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD) that affects up to 30% of the population, we demonstrated that a two-week omeprazole treatment suppresses the development of CHS. Omeprazole treatment before CHS induction, reduced inflammatory response in ears measured by ear swelling, ear biopsy weight, MPO activity, and proinflammatory cytokine production. These changes were associated with reduced frequency of TCRαβ

, implicated in Treg cell induction. The fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) experiment confirmed the role of omeprazole-induced changes in gut microbiota profile in CHS suppression. Our data suggests that omeprazole ameliorates inflammatory response mediated by T-cells. |
