Secondary lymphoid organs serve as sites of contact between antigen\u2010presenting cells (APCs) and immune effector T and B lymphocytes. The gut\u2010associated lymphatic system (GALT) as the intestinal branch of the immune system provides different mechanisms to protect organisms against pathogens. Simultaneously, immune activation secondary to genetic factors and\/or environmental signals can induce detrimental autoimmunity. The effector pathways in host defense and autoimmunity use similar cytokines and chemokines. Unlike few other cytokines, lymphotoxin (LT) \u03b1\/\u03b2 regulates the development of intestinal lymphoid organs, including Peyer's patches (PPs) and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs). In addition, intestinal inflammation is suppressed by inhibition of LT\u03b2 signalling, an observation which has initiated clinical studies using this treatment principle. Conversely, the course of <jats:italic>Citrobacter rodentium<\/jats:italic>\u2013induced infectious colitis is more severe in mice with impaired LT\u03b2\u2010receptor\u2010mediated signalling. This report provides an overview on the role of the different organs of the GALT in intestinal inflammation. Moreover, it describes the role of the LT\u03b2\u2010receptor\u2010mediated signalling in intestinal inflammation as encountered in autoimmune and infectious pathology. The contribution of LT to the delicate balance of immune effector functions in host defense and autoimmunity is discussed.<\/jats:bold> <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1196\/annals.1326.029","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2006,10,21]],"date-time":"2006-10-21T00:36:02Z","timestamp":1161390962000},"page":"187-193","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":11,"title":["Role of Lymphotoxins in the Development of Peyer's Patches and Mesenteric Lymph Nodes"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"1072","author":[{"given":"THOMAS W.","family":"SPAHN","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"MICHAEL K.","family":"M\u00dcLLER","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"WOLFRAM","family":"DOMSCHKE","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"TORSTEN","family":"KUCHARZIK","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2006,8,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1038\/nri1151"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1034\/j.1600-065X.2003.00075.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.2003.023671"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1002\/eji.1830270830"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4049\/jimmunol.167.5.2781"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF02786481"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1084\/jem.183.4.1461"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1286-4579(99)80028-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1572-0241.1998.207_a.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S1074-7613(00)80038-2"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_12_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/0016-5085(94)90813-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_13_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.51.6.808"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_14_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1136\/gut.51.6.803"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_15_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0016-5085(98)70025-3"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_16_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0002-9440(10)64503-8"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_17_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/IAI.73.11.7077-7088.2005"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_18_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1128\/IAI.71.5.2839-2858.2003"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_19_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1093\/infdis\/155.3.377"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_20_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1172\/JCI0215975"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_21_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1053\/j.gastro.2004.08.022"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_22_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1084\/jem.193.2.239"}],"container-title":["Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1196%2Fannals.1326.029","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/nyaspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1196\/annals.1326.029","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,9,25]],"date-time":"2023-09-25T03:06:39Z","timestamp":1695611199000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/nyaspubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1196\/annals.1326.029"}},"subtitle":["Relevance to Intestinal Inflammation and Treatment"],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2006,8]]},"references-count":21,"journal-issue":{"issue":"1","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2006,8]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1196\/annals.1326.029"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1196\/annals.1326.029","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0077-8923","1749-6632"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0077-8923","type":"print"},{"value":"1749-6632","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2006,8]]}}}
