ABSTRACT
Aldosterone is a key mineralocorticoid involved in regulating the concentration of blood electrolytes and physiological volume balance. Activation of mineralocorticoid receptor (MR) has been recently reported to participate in adaptive and innate immune responses under inflammation. Here, we evaluated the role of aldosterone and MR in inflammation bowel diseases (IBD). Aldosterone elevated in the colon of DSS-induced colitis mice. Aldosterone addition induced IL17 production and ROS/RNS level in group 3 innate lymphoid cells (ILC3s) and exacerbated intestinal injury. A selective mineralocorticoid receptor antagonism, eplerenone, inhibited IL17-producing ILC3s and its ROS/RNS production, protected mice from DSS-induced colitis. Mice lacking Nr3c2 (MR coding gene) in ILC3s exhibited decreased IL17 and ROS/RNS production, which alleviated colitis and colitis-associated colorectal cancer (CAC). Further experiments revealed that MR could directly bind to IL17A promoter and facilitate its transcription, which could be enhanced by aldosterone. Thus, our findings demonstrated the critical role of aldosterone-MR-IL17 signaling in ILC3s and gut homeostasis, indicating the therapeutic strategy of eplerenone in IBD clinical trial.
