Abstract 2663
Background
The NOD2 agonist muramyl-dipeptide (MDP), a peptidoglycan motif common to all bacteria, supports LGR5+ intestinal stem cells (ISCs) survival through NOD2 activation upon an otherwise lethal oxidative-stress-mediated signal. Yet the underlying protective mechanisms remains unknown.
Methods
Irradiation was used as stressor and primarily murine-derived intestinal organoids as a model system.
Results
MDP induced a strong reduction of total and mitochondrial reactive oxygen species (ROS) within ISCs, which was associated with mitophagy induction. ATG16L1 KO and NOD2 KO organoids did not benefit from the MDP-induced cytoprotection. We showed the MDP-dependent induction of ISC mitophagy upon stress in vivo.
Conclusions
In LGR5+ ISCs, NOD2 allows irradiation-generated ROS clearance through ATG16L1-activated mitophagy.
