Early mucosal sensing of SIV infection by paneth cells induces IL-1β production and initiates gut epithelial disruption. by Lauren A Hirao, Irina Grishina, Olivier Bourry, William K Hu, Monsicha Somrit, Sumathi Sankaran-Walters, Chris A Gaulke, Anne N Fenton, Jay A Li, Robert W Crawford, Frank Chuang, Ross Tarara, Maria L Marco, Andreas J Bäumler, Holland Cheng, Satya Dandekar

“…However, immunohistological analysis revealed the disruption of the gut epithelium manifested by decreased expression and mislocalization of tight junction proteins. Correlating with epithelial disruption was a significant induction of IL-1β expression by Paneth cells, which were in close proximity to SIV-infected cells in the intestinal crypts. …”
