The human di/tripeptide transporter hPepT1 is abnormally expressed in colons of patients with inflammatory bowel disease, although its exact role in pathogenesis is unclear. We investigated the contribution of PepT1 to intestinal inflammation in mouse models of colitis and the involvement of the nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain 2 (NOD2) signaling pathway in the pathogenic activity of colonic epithelial hPepT1. Transgenic mice were generated in which hPepT1 expression was regulated by the β-actin or villin promoters; colitis was induced using 2,4,6-trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) or dextran sodium sulfate (DSS) and the inflammatory responses were assessed. The effects of NOD2 deletion in the hPepT1 transgenic mice was also studied, to determine the involvement of the PepT1–NOD2 signaling pathway. TNBS and DSS induced more severe levels of inflammation in β-actin–hPepT1 transgenic mice than wild-type littermates. Intestinal epithelial cell (IEC)-specific hPepT1 overexpression in villin-hPepT1 transgenic mice increased the severity of inflammation induced by DSS, but not TNBS. Bone marrow transplantation studies demonstrated that hPepT1 expression in IECs and immune cells has an important role in the proinflammatory response. Antibiotics abolished the effect of hPepT1 overexpression on the inflammatory response in DSS-induced colitis in β-actinh–PepT1 and villin-hPepT1 transgenic mice, indicating that commensal bacteria are required to aggravate intestinal inflammation. Nod2−/−, β-actin–hPepT1 transgenic/Nod2−/−, and villinhPepT1 transgenic/Nod2−/− littermates had similar levels of susceptibility to DSS-induced colitis, indicating that hPepT1 overexpression increased intestinal inflammation in a NOD2-dependent manner. The PepT1–NOD2 signaling pathway is involved in aggravation of DSS-induced colitis in mice.
