BACKGROUND: Recently, autoantibodies directed against the epithelial adhesion protein integrin αVβ6 have been identified that are strongly associated with ulcerative colitis (UC). We aimed to elucidate whether anti-integrin αVβ6 (anti-αVβ6) is present in primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC), its associated inflammatory bowel disease, or other cholestatic liver diseases and their persistence after proctocolectomy.
METHODS: We detected anti-αVβ6 by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay in sera collected at 2 German tertiary centers, including healthy controls (N = 62), UC (N = 36), Crohn's disease (CD, N = 65), PSC-inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD) (78 samples from N = 41 patients), PSC without IBD (PSC, 41 samples from N = 18 patients), primary biliary cholangitis (PBC, N = 24), autoimmune hepatitis (AIH, N = 32), secondary sclerosing cholangitis (SSC, N = 12), and metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD, N = 24). In addition, sera after proctocolectomy were studied (44 samples/N = 10 patients). Immunofluorescent analyses were performed in tissue samples from liver, large bile duct from surgical resections, and colon of PSC patients.
RESULTS: Anti-αVβ6 occurred in 91% of UC, 17% of CD, 73% of PSC-IBD, 39% of PSC, 4% of PBC, 14% of AIH, and 0% of healthy controls, SSC, or MASLD. Integrin αVβ6 is selectively expressed in disease-associated epithelia of both bile duct and colon. Anti-αVβ6 levels correlate moderately with intestinal disease activity in PSC-IBD, but only weakly with biliary disease.
CONCLUSIONS: Anti-αVβ6 frequently occurs in patients suffering from PSC, especially in PSC-IBD. Anti-αVβ6 levels positively correlate to IBD activity in PSC-IBD, but may also occur in the absence of clinically manifest IBD in PSC.
