Microbial sensing by Toll-like receptors (TLR) and its negative regulation have important role in the pathogenesis of inflammation-related cancer. In this study, we investigated the role of negative regulation of TLR signaling and gut microbiota in the development of colitis-associated cancer in mouse model. Colitis-associated cancer was induced by azoxymethane and dextran sodium sulfate in wild-type and in Interleukin-1 receptor associated kinase-M (IRAK-M) deficient mice with or without antibiotic (ATB) treatment. Local cytokine production was analyzed by multiplex cytokine assay or ELISA, and regulatory T cells were analyzed by flow cytometry. Changes in microbiota composition during tumorigenesis were analyzed by pyrosequencing, and β-glucuronidase activity was measured in intestinal content by fluorescence assay. ATB treatment of wild-type mice reduced the incidence and severity of tumors. As compared with non-treated mice, ATB-treated mice had significantly lower numbers of regulatory T cells in colon, altered gut microbiota composition, and decreased β-glucuronidase activity. However, the β-glucuronidase activity was not as low as in germ-free mice. IRAK-M deficient mice not only developed invasive tumors, but ATB-induced decrease in β-glucuronidase activity did not rescue them from severe carcinogenesis phenotype. Furthermore, IRAK-M deficient mice had significantly increased levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the tumor tissue. We conclude that gut microbiota promotes tumorigenesis by increasing the exposure of gut epithelium to carcinogens and that IRAK-M negative regulation is essential for colon cancer resistance even in conditions of altered microbiota. Therefore, gut microbiota and its metabolic activity could be potential targets for colitis-associated cancer therapy.
