The Journal of Immunology Regulation of Intestinal IgA Responses by Dietary Palmitic Acid and Its Metabolism Jun Kunisawa,*,†,‡,x,{ Eri Hashimoto,*,† Asuka Inoue,‡,‖ Risa Nagasawa,*,† Yuji Suzuki,† Izumi Ishikawa,† Shiori Shikata,*,† Makoto Arita,#,**,1 Junken Aoki,‖,†† and Hiroshi Kiyono†,‡,††,‡‡,xx Enhancement of intestinal IgA responses is a primary strategy in the development of oral vaccine. Dietary fatty acids are known to regulate host immune responses. In this study, we show that dietary palmitic acid (PA) and its metabolites enhance intestinal IgA responses. Intestinal IgA production was increased in mice maintained on a PA-enriched diet. These mice also showed increased intestinal IgA responses against orally immunized Ag, without any effect on serum Ab responses. We found that PA directly stim- ulates plasma cells to produce Ab. In addition, mice receiving a PA-enriched diet had increased numbers of IgA-producing plasma cells in the large intestine; this effect was abolished when serine palmitoyltransferase was inhibited. These findings suggest that Downloaded from dietary PA regulates intestinal IgA responses and has the potential to be a diet-derived mucosal adjuvant.
