HDAC1 and HDAC5 control Enterobacteria colonization in ileal mucosa of CD patients. The HDAC1/HDAC5 expression balance is crucial in the control of the interaction between Enterobacteria and intestinal epithelial cells in ileal mucosa of CD patients, a reduced HDAC1 expression associated with an increased expression of HDAC5 being conditions favoring Enterobacteria and AIEC gut colonization. Consumption of a high-fat diet leads to alterations of global H3 acetylation level and creates a specific micro-environment that allows AIEC bacteria to reach intestinal epithelium. In this environment, AIEC bacteria are able to imbalance HDAC1 and HDAC5 expressions to their advantage to colonize the gut mucosa. Targeting HDAC5 could represent an interesting approach to prevent AIEC colonization in CD patients. Ac: acetylation.
