We explored the role of the MyD88 signaling pathway. This pathway mediates the recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patterns and damage-associated molecular patterns via Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and/or IL-1/IL-18 via each cytokine receptor in a murine model of acute pancreatitis induced by cerulein administration. Our analysis revealed that: various TLRs and MyD88 molecules were constitutively expressed in the pancreas of cerulein-treated and untreated wild-type (WT) mice. MyD88^?/? mice administered cerulein developed severe pancreatitis as compared with MyD88^+/+ WT mice. The number of IL-10-expressing CD11b⁺Gr-1^high cells in cerulein-administered MyD88^?/? mice was significantly decreased. This was in accordance with a reciprocal increase in the infiltration of CD4⁺ T cells as compared with that in control MyD88^+/+ mice. WT mice pretreated with antibiotics and administered cerulein developed milder pancreatitis as compared with control cerulein-administered mice without antibiotic treatment. The MyD88 signaling pathway contributes to the induction of regulatory IL-10-producing macrophages/myeloid-derived suppressor cells, possibly in response to non-bacterial components in the damaged pancreas. These results provide a new concept for therapeutic strategies against acute pancreatitis.
