タイトル A bacteria-regulated gut peptide determines host dependence on specific bacteria to support host juvenile development and survival.
ジャーナル BMC Biol
Abstract BACKGROUND:Commensal microorganisms have a significant impact on the physiology of host animals, including Drosophila. Lactobacillus and Acetobacter, the two most common commensal bacteria in Drosophila, stimulate fly development and growth, but the mechanisms underlying their functional interactions remain elusive.
RESULTS:We found that imaginal morphogenesis protein-Late 2 (Imp-L2), a Drosophila homolog of insulin-like growth factor binding protein 7, is expressed in gut enterocytes in a bacteria-dependent manner, determining host dependence on specific bacteria for host development. Imp-L2 mutation abolished the stimulatory effects of Lactobacillus, but not of Acetobacter, on fly larval development. The lethality of the Imp-L2 mutant markedly increased under axenic conditions, which was reversed by Acetobacter, but not Lactobacillus, re-association. The host dependence on specific bacteria was determined by Imp-L2 expressed in enterocytes, which was repressed by Acetobacter, but not Lactobacillus. Mechanistically, Lactobacillus and Acetobacter differentially affected steroid hormone-mediated Imp-L2 expression and Imp-L2-specific FOXO regulation.
CONCLUSIONS:Our finding may provide a way how host switches dependence between different bacterial species when benefiting from varying microbiota.
