Pathogenic mechanisms involved in the autoimmune disorder systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) remain elusive. However, dysbiosis of the gut microbiota may be involved in disease pathogenesis. We demonstrate that the dysbiotic gut microbiota of lupus-prone mice induced autoimmunity when transferred into non-autoimmune germfree wildtype mice. An increase in kynurenine, a metabolite of tryptophan metabolism, was observed in lupus-prone mice, which decreased after antibiotic treatment. Low dietary tryptophan prevented autoimmune pathology, whereas high dietary tryptophan exacerbated disease. Further, a reduction in dietary tryptophan resulted in changes in gut microbial taxa in lupus-prone mice and the congenic normal control mice. The interplay of gut microbial dysbiosis, tryptophan metabolism and host genetic susceptibility suggested that aberrant tryptophan metabolism in lupus-susceptible mice could be one of the mechanisms contributing to autoimmune activation in this disease. Gut microbiota dysbiosis induces lupus-like autoimmunity in mice through altered tryptophan metabolism Interplay of genes, microbiome, and tryptophan controls autoimmunity Alterations in gut microbiota may contribute to autoimmunity through bacterial-mediated immune dysregulations. Tryptophan, an essential amino acid, is critically involved in kynurenine biosynthesis. High kynurenine is observed in patients with lupus and lupus-prone mice. Choi et al. how that gut bacterial dysbiosis found in lupus-prone mice dysregulates tryptophan metabolism, which, in turn, exacerbates the disease progression. They also demonstrate that autoimmunity can be mitigated by reducing dietary tryptophan. Thus, they propose a model in which genetic susceptibility induces autoimmunity, which leads to gut bacterial dysbiosis and an increased tryptophan metabolism that enhances lupus pathogenesis in the host.
