title: Innate immune activation of swine intestinal epithelial cell lines (IPEC-J2 and IPI-2I) in response to LPS from Salmonella typhimurium.
abstract: The innate immune system has the basic function of identifying and eradicating microbial invaders and alerting the adaptative immune system to their presence. In this study, the porcine intestinal innate immune response was evaluated by analysing the expression of TLRs, cytokines and chemokines in two porcine epithelial cell lines from different regions: IPEC-J2 (jejunum) and IPI-2I (ileum). Both cells lines were stimulated with 1microg of LPS from Salmonella typhimurium. RNA was collected at 30min, 1, 2, 3 and 4h after treatment. Expression of TLR-1, -2, -3, -4, -6, -8, -9, -10, TNF-alpha, IL-1beta, -8 and MCP-1 was quantified relative to the quantity of Cyclophilin-A mRNA using real-time quantitative PCR (RTQ-PCR). The results obtained show up differences in the gene expression between both cell lines IPEC-J2 and IPI-2I as response to LPS from S. typhimurium during the activation time, which may suggest an in vivo variability in the innate immune response against pathogens in different regions of the host's gut.
