Apyrase-mediated amplification of secretory IgA promotes intestinal homeostasis
Cell Reports, July 19 2022 Secretory immunoglobulin A (SIgA) interaction with commensal bacteria conditions microbiota composition and function. However, mechanisms regulating reciprocal control of microbiota and SIgA are not defined. Bacteria-derived adenosine triphosphate (ATP) limits T follicular helper (Tfh) cells in the Peyer’s patches (PPs) via P2X7 receptor (P2X7R) and thereby SIgA generation. Here we…
