Abstract	Innate immune dysfunction can promote chronic inflammatory diseases of the liver. For example, mice lacking the flagellin receptor Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) show microbial dysbiosis and predisposition to high-fat diet (HFD)-induced hepatic steatosis. The extent to which hepatocytes play a direct role in detecting bacterial products in general, or flagellin in particular, is poorly understood. In the present study, we investigated the role of hepatocyte TLR5 in recognizing flagellin, policing bacteria, and protecting against liver disease., Mice were engineered to lack TLR5 specifically in hepatocytes (TLR5(?Hep)) and analyzed relative to sibling controls (TLR5(fl/fl)). TLR5 messenger RNA levels, responses to exogenous flagellin, elimination of circulating motile bacteria, and susceptibility of liver injury (concanavalin A, carbon tetrachloride, methionine- and choline-deficient diet, and HFD) were measured., TLR5(?Hep) expressed similar levels of TLR5 as TLR5(fl/fl) in all organs examined, except in the liver, which showed a 90% reduction in TLR5 levels, indicating that hepatocytes accounted for the major portion of TLR5 expression in this organ. TLR5(?Hep) showed impairment in responding to purified flagellin and clearing flagellated bacteria from the liver. Although TLR5(?Hep) mice did not differ markedly from sibling controls in concanavalin A or carbon tetrachloride-induced liver injury models, they showed exacerbated disease in response to a methionine- and choline-deficient diet and HFD. Such predisposition of TLR5(?Hep) to diet-induced liver pathology was associated with increased expression of proinflammatory cytokines, which was dependent on the Nod-like-receptor C4 inflammasome and rescued by microbiota ablation., Hepatocyte TLR5 plays a critical role in protecting liver against circulating gut bacteria and against diet-induced liver disease.

Scholarly citation norms must be followed for content reuse.

Please note that the acknowledgment text includes a Research Resource Identifier (RRID) for the MMPC-Live CU and Centers. Reproducibility is one of the corner stones of effective, open and transparent biomedical published research. However, too often, resources (e.g. model organisms, antibodies, and tools) are not reported with adequate detail to ensure others can replicate or expand upon the published results. The Research Resource Identification Initiative (#RII) seeks to change these limitations in reporting by the use of unique Research Resource Identifiers (RRIDs). This initiative is designed to encourage authors to provide identification of the types of resources used in their research by adding a globally unique accession number to the resources described in the their manuscripts. These identifiers, called RRIDs, will allow authors to cite the resources that they use in their manuscripts. RRIDs allow for easy tracking of all papers that have used the same resource making it easy to access how the same resources works in other scenarios.

It is expected that MMPC-Live users follow scholarly citation norms, giving credit to fellow scholars when accessing/using protocols and data, including data derived by MMPC-Live (such as summary data) and any plots, tables or screenshots depicting those data.
