Show abstract
Inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) are characterized by chronic relapsing inflammation of the gastrointestinal tract. While the molecular causality between endoplasmic reticulum (ER) stress and intestinal inflammation is widely accepted, the metabolic consequences of chronic ER-stress on the pathophysiology of IBD remain unclear. By using in vitro, ex vivo, in vivo mouse models and patient datasets, we identified a distinct polarisation of the mitochondrial one-carbon (1C) metabolism and a fine-tuning of the amino acid uptake in intestinal epithelial cells tailored to support GSH and NADPH metabolism upon chronic ER-stress. This metabolic phenotype strongly correlates with IBD severity and therapy-response. Mechanistically, we uncover that both chronic ER-stress and serine limitation disrupt cGAS/STING-signalling, impairing the epithelial response against viral and bacterial infection, fuelling experimental enteritis. Consequently, antioxidant treatment restores STING function and virus control. Collectively, our data highlight the importance of the plasticity of serine metabolism to allow proper cGAS/STING-signalling and innate immune responses upon chronic inflammation in the gut.
